This morning
I walked in and saw this at my desk. I seriously almost cried it was so sweet and thoughtful. My co-worker decorated my desk and put together the most thoughful, funny, wonderful gifts for me. Sometimes I forget how lucky I am to have certain people in my life.

What I've managed to do so far today
Bought myself some presents.

Ok so my whole grand plan of posting that picture didn't work out so well. Basically I just bought a bunch of stuff from Sephora. I recieved a gift card last night at 6pm and have spent it already. It didn't even last 24 hours in my hands!
jenks - 12/17/08 19:07
nicely done!

I love receiving gift cards- especially in large denominations.


mmmm and for Sephora, too.

Happy on-line shopping to you!

Julia Allison
Normally I hate her and her vapid life. Actually I just hate her nonsociety business partners. Actually I just can't stand Mary. But, today she posted pretty much the most relevant, heartfelt blog post ever. It helps that I feel pretty much the exact same way.



Best part of her post:

The truth is, sometimes I’m a big pile of mush who just wants someone special to snuggle with at night.

Okay, then, now I’ve been honest with you. I actually feel a little ill.

And yeah, I could use a hug.



Oh Julia, maybe I do heart you after all..

Hamster on Piano
Normally I'm a little afraid of hamsters. This fear originated when I was in the third grade and took the class pet home for a weekend. The one rule (told to me by both the teacher and my parents) was: do not take the hamster out of the cage unless there is an adult around. Ever since I was a tike I've been all "Eff rules. I'm too smart for rules to apply to me."

Long story short. I took the hamster out of the cage. It nibbled my finger. I freaked out (I didn't have a lot of exposure to live animals in my youth) and dropped it. It ran under my little white bookshelf. I lifted the bookshelf up to look for it. Put the bookshelf down. Well, you know what happened. Don't make me re-live it.

My fear diminished a bit today after seeing this. Now I want both a hamster and a piano.

Have you seen the teeth on those things when they yawn, though?? Our school pet hamster ate its babies. We were traumatized. They are damn cute and fluffy, though.

I've been good all year!

Ok no I haven't, but those rings would look so pretty on my finger.

If you like to shop for gems you might want to check out
:::link:::

It's a jewelry channel auction site that has some very reasonable stuff(mostly rings)with gems set in sterling, yellow gold, and white gold. They sometimes sell loose gem stones too.
hodown - 12/08/08 17:22
They are just gems in 14k gold. I found them on tiffany.com because i like to shop for gems in my free time..
matthew - 12/08/08 17:20
I like that amber colored one. Are they any stone in particular? Pretty!
