The big "O"

Every girl needs a vice. I've got a few, for my fellow females that don't have one.... So I was having a not so good day yesterday. I've been in a not good day mood for a while now, so bad that I thought 'shopping' wouldn't help. What has the world come to, when I'm losing hope in 'shopping'? Luckily, the gods were smiling upon me.

I had dinner with a girlfriend at the mall - which coincidentally has a NM last call. So I decided to poke around and see if there was anything 'take home' worthy. That's when I stumbled across the above and also bought a lovely Nanette Lepore jacket to top the emsemble off. The last couple visits to NM last call hasn't been noteworthy so I was pleasantly surprised. I walked out feeling much better as I:

1. helped the economy
2. was in shopping 'o' afterglow
3. was enroute for a drink and dinner with my GF

You know it's real good when you don't have any regrets the next day.

Whaaa??

You thought Barney was retired! Retarded, yes. Retired, I don't know. The missing Teletubby? Maybe.

Things have been challenging lately. I just don't have the strength to be a wholesome good person. I try (kinda) but I've been thinking about switching in my halo for a nice sharp pitchfork....

Score

I'm pleased to say NY wasn't a bust. I didn't get sick over the weekend. I felt a little ill but that was self induced....(that is all I will say).

I went to the Barney's Warehouse sale - I've never been to a warehouse sale in the city, it was definately an experience. Lot's of women clammering for items, a bunch of designer garb, still overpriced and people trying things on in the aisles. I managed to see what I believed were models, some bad plastic surgery and ppl with way too much money or great credit card limits. I should've walked out empty handed but landed a bitchin pair of Miu Miu's. I really couldn't pass up the deal .... (that is all I will say). Also, there is no recession in NYC. Seriously, it's crazy, so many people shopping, eating and drinking? What are they doing that I'm not. I need to get 'in' on the action.

I balanced my shopping karma by going to a consignment/exchange store (Beacon't Closet) in Brooklyn where I passed by a boutique and got these Ugg driving loafers for $20. Nope... not a typo. New in the box and it really was UGG Australia opposed to Ug or Igg or some crazy knock off. They retail for about $130. So score!

We ate, we drank, we shopped. We were also overstimulated while people watching. When is it a good idea to wear a sequined mini skirt and medal/leather biker boots? Why would a woman in a buzzcut (not hot... so very not hot) who looked like a midwest meat and potatoes brood dye her hair magenta and wear pink makeup? Was she on crack or the Drew Carey show? Why was I being visually assaulted? Did I do or say something to deserve such treatment? Or were the blogging gods watching over me to give me something to sass about?

2009 Resolution update

I tried to be a better person but failed the first month. I need to modify this resolution to 'try to be a better person and not kill anyone or get arrested avenging some unkindly act'.
Sounds easy... maybe
but YOU try to avenge a wrong and not get arrested (or caught)... not so easy.

Head cold

Getting sick on friday the 13th. ugh I don't really care about that... but I do care about my trip to NY getting F'ed up.

That would suck... but if I go shopping I may be extra aggressive.... or simply pass out. Last time I felt like shit I did this (see image). I photoshopped a bad memory out of a picture. I would've done worse but it's apparently 'illegal' to set someone on fire..... oh well.
Going to restart the band to get my aggression out. SAD NEWS - I bought two lottery tickets.....and I didn't win.
Guess I gotta keep moving and shakin.. Happy that I'm hanging with the sexy man and one of my fav GalPals this weekend! We shall dominate NYC. I pity the fool that crosses our path.

Anyone looking for Valentine's day ideas - nothing quite says I love you like a big shiny credit card and lots of cocktails!

Crumbing Economy....NOooooooooooooo

Okay, I can deal with the cut backs and saving money tips. I can even deal with the economy hitting the booze and porn industry. sad sad.

But not this, anything but this!!

best quotes:
Oh Happy Halloween too, why don't you dress up like a son who cares.
No, I said she's a whore.
I don't love her, she's a whore.
Look at you, look at you, look at you!
Why can't you be like your brother, he from the clouds, god bring him down.

hahahaha
This takes the sting away a little from the sad sad Girl Scout cookie news. F'ing Commies. Is not America the home of the free and land of the brave and Girl Scout cookies?

Sweet Bjesus, someone get me a martini. STAT!

2009 Resolutions

• must win lottery
• simplify life
• lose weight
• create pickpocketing robot
• pay off debt
• save money
• buy small village in a third world country
• create an army of monkies
• embark on more adventures (the good kind, not the kind that makes you scrub yourself extra hard in the shower while cowering and crying in the corner)

Most of the items for 2009 "to do" are contingent on the first bullet item. sad. By the way, why is there an actual article on Brad Pitt's faithfulness - it's been almost 4 years. I swear... Get over it.
