Sitting in my car this morning.
These days people are pinching pennies and living frugally, but we want to know: What's the last thing you splurged on?
I wouldn't really call it a splurge but I did get myself something for Christmas, a necklace I saw in the window of T. S. Brown's jewelry store in the cotton exchange. It's a blue enamel butterfly and I just thought it was so pretty that I had to walk inside and ask to see it. I almost didn't since all their jewelry is so expensive, but I'm glad I did since it was actually really inexpensive. I wear it almost every day. I've always loved butterflies and what they represent: metamorphosis, self growth, and becoming beautiful inside as well as out.
And since it's Self Portrait Thursday, here's a picture of me wearing it. I'm bored and listening to my ipod as you can see, on my lunch break getting fast food. My bangs are getting long, time for a haircut.
Three things I realized today:
1. When I think something is easy, it's actually harder than I think.
2. When I think something will be hard, it's not as hard as I think.
3. Pizza delivery is a rip off. $15 plus tip and I only ate 2 slices.
Thanks to a certain insane kitten who will not be named, I was woken up way too early this morning and took forever to fall asleep again. This of course meant that I overslept when my alarm finally went off...
Went to the gym today after work and was on the treadmill the entire time Ugly Betty was on.... I love how you can plug your headset in and tune into one of 20 tvs there. They get more channels than I do at home lol!
Got a couple of cool books from Dad today:
One has scrapbook papers and stickers and the other has recipies, crafts, gifts to make, etc. Very cool, there's a ton of pages that I marked of things I want to try. :) Thanks Dad!
I thought I was smiling when I took this but I guess not, I look like I'm about to cry... well I *was* going into work, lol.
I actually left after lunch and stayed home. My cold is getting worse and after eating something from the cafeteria my stomach is killing me too. Ugh.
Tonight I:
-watched Ugly Betty
-managed to eat one piece of toast with butter
-realised (yet again) that I over analyze everything
-signed up for roomates.com, will probably get one in Jan to help split the bills
-knit 5 rows on the sweater I started last fall
-watched The Office for the first time... it was actually pretty funny.
Ok, going to down some nyquil and call it a night.
Went to the mall for lunch today and got some bubble tea while I was there. I love how the cups have cute pictures, this one has a bear with balloons that spell out "party" with the words "happy time" next to him. It always cracks me up.
I got green tea with lychee jelly cubes, my favorite. Here's a few pics of me in the mall parking lot before I had to rush back to work.
It was raining today.
I ate breakfast at the cafeteria at work and felt so sick I had to go home early.
Quote of the day:
"We desire the way a twice poisoned dog eyes a third piece of meat"
I FINALLY found a brown peacoat that I liked enough to buy. How freakin hard is it to make a brown peacoat? I must have looked for one for weeks before comming across this one. Meh. I even look kinda look pissed off in these pictures... ha ha.
After being inspired by CubistLiterature and LaidOutInLavender I thought I'd join the bandwagon and start having a self portrait thursday. Here's some pics from today, (yes I know it's technically friday but I didn't get to post them until now!)
Starting to make the Self Portrait Thursday group...
Only 6 more days till Thursday!
Hurry up and join! ;)
A self portrait of a self portrait!
Mind boggling isn't it?
I was going all the pictures I've taken since I got my digital camera and found a ton of self portraits. It's pretty interesting to see how much you've changed just by looking at pictures you've taken of yourself..
