say what?

who: sister no.1 and me

said what:
sister no.1: we should call oprah!
me: oprah ain't gonna help the white people.*

in regards to: calling in professionals to clean the cluster f**k that is my parents house.**

*i can't believe i used the word ain't.
**sorry, mom.

all the things i buy...


i'm a paper freak... if you haven't noticed that by now then you are obviously not paying attention. i love pretty much everything paper.... from the design of it, to the production, to the packaging. actually i think the packing and marketing of paper products must be my favorite part. my dream is to be surrounded by tons of pretty printed paper. okay, enough of that nonsense...
these little sticky tabs by Bob's Your Uncle make it so much fun to jot down little notes. my co-workers particularly enjoy them when they find the little exclamation point or question mark on files i have gone over. adds a little color to the dullness of the day. AND we all could use a little color!

howdy,


riddle me this... why do car lots spend their money on ridiculous inflatable giant characters that they sprinkle all over their roof tops? is it to let us know they are open for business?... because the massive amount of identical cars lined up in rows upon rows just doesn't get the job done.

family.


these are the people i love and cherish the most.

la pensée du jour

by skeletonhands

things never, ok not never, but rarely ever turn out like i would like them. therefore, i now approach things with a stoic demeanor. i must remove the heart from my sleeve. people keep wiping their snotty hands all over it.

all the things i want...



so i have had it. damn it. i have just HAD IT!

i appreciate the the sleek and non complicated design of the iPhone. not only do i appreciate it, i love it. and i do understand that covering it in some protective rubbery substance defies all that IS the iPhones design. but one thing i appreciate and love more than the design of the iPhone... is my actual iPhone. therefore, i am surrendering to my principals and joining the search for case that will protect my prized play thing. the search has been nothing but annoying. there is not much out there except this Miniot wood case for $115... pretty but too pricey. my search continues.

winter



by matteart

tomorrow at 1:58am, winter will be say farewell until next year and it will be time for all the pretty sweet things of spring... my favorite time of year!

all the things i buy...



me, target, and a friday night make for a bad combination...because i spend too much money on nonsensical things. things like these lovely 'pillers' from target. i try not to buy a lot of things from target because half the USA population will end up having it as well but who freakin' cares when the things are so damn cute! DwellStudios have hopped on Targets mainstream consuming bandwagon and is now gracing our homes with a decoration delight.

what you can't see in the pictures above, is that on the opposite side of each pillow there is a different design or reverse use of color. they are my new favorite items in my apartment at this moment. love, love, love them!

sweater.


today, i am wearing the sweater i wore when my SBJ and I took our engagement pictures. i think i have only worn this sweater one other time. not because it's special, mainly because the bottom seam rolls up on it's self and i tend not to care much for that type of look. and due to the fluctuating weather that texas is so well known for, it's 50º outside and i'm tired of wearing black... so i picked the green wool sweater from the back of my closet.

while making my rounds this morning at the office, i caught a glimpse of my reflection in a glass door, realized in that moment i was wearing this particular sweater and thought to myself... would james be happy with the person i am today? with the decisions i have made? with the place i am at in my life? i find myself wondering this all the time.

not that i could ever imagine james not liking anyone... though people got on his nerves and he didn't care much for other with snot nose attitudes and a particular guy who persistently tried to court his wife, he got along with everyone. and i mean EVERYONE. so for me to even think that he wouldn't like me today would be silly. but i still think about it.

unfocused.


i have a stack of work sitting right in front of me... it's been sitting there all morning. i don't want to touch it but i know i must. i need focus. FOCUS. FOCUS. FOCUS.

i hate this job.

moonpies.


i love how the coke fizzes up in your mouth after you eat a moon pie. happy things.
