eSpreSSo

Yum, what a loverly day. One of the gals at Starbucks recommended a yummy coffee blend for me to try. She ground a half pound of one of my fav beans - Sulawesi - with a half pound of espresso beans... ahhh, scrump-de-lee-icious! Which reminds me of the annoying way that some people say espresso. They stick an X in there. It is not eXpresso people.

Anyway. Then mumsy and I went to Target, and I almost bought a new pair of jeans. "Almost" because they were too darn long, but they fit WUNderfully otherwise. And best of all, they were a size 8! Fit like a mofo glove! They looked and felt so great, but just too long, and they didn't have a petite. poo. Oh well, next time. It was getting too late to go anywhere else, plus we still had to go to the grocery store. yuk.

You know, I don't go shopping very much anymore, but boy, when I do, that shopping beast comes alive within me, and I could shop all day! Maybe next week some time I'll go on an all dayer.

Have to save lives tomorrow for awhile. Noon until 8:30. Kind of odd, but I'm doing my good deed for the year and working for someone else who needed off.

So have a good 3-day weekend everyone. Be safe, and enjoy thyselves.

purple hair

Going to get my hair cut this afternoon. Don't remember if we allotted time for color or not... I normally get a refresher every time it's cut, but for pizzazz, I usually need more time.

Pizzazz? Purple streaks? Nah, maybe just really bright lightness here and there. Ya, maybe that's what I need. And I'm driving with my top down for sure, and with a CD blasting in the player and a Venti Starbucks by my side. Yes indeedy, that'll do the trick!

Plus, no cooking tonite. I made a nice pork roast last nite, and hubby wondered what the occasion was.
"Someone coming over for dinner?" he asked.
He also told dad-in-law that he must have been a good boy to garner a fancy-schmancy dinner.

See? There's a motive to my usual Tuna Helper menu... when I do wind up cooking normally, they reeallly appreciate it. ha!

You know, I was thinking earlier about my state-of-mind, and I thought maybe too much coffee drinking could be a contributing factor (yes mother, I hear you over there!). Sooo, I'm cutting back.

I just need to brew a small one before I go for my haircut.
;)
later.

Funny Face

I'm feeling a little sad... while I was browsing around over at "glubagluba" (that's how I say it in my head) for a little inspiration or something, I started thinking about how darn long it's been since I updated Art Beat Street. Add that to poor little FullMoon Graphics, just sitting there all naked and everything, and I have to wonder, "What the hell am I doing these days anyway??!"

I've gotten rid of 24-7, I don't write in here very often (or redecorate), my house is just as untidy, I still feed my men Tuna Helper and Marie Callender Pot Pies, and I still sit at this desk 18 hours a day.
(and I'm not getting any richer)

What is wrong with me?

I need an extreme mental makeover!
h-e-l-p!!!
(oh. I'm watching "Funny Face" with Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire - hence, the title of this post)
