... another sad day for us :(.
nothing much to say at the moment so here are a couple songs which are more 'uplifting' than this post (i meant to rave about these songs earlier in the week and am now realizing i won't be in the right mood to do so anytime soon) and a quote someone posted this morning on their FB.
".. and the air is thin
and it blows through your skin
and you feel like something
is about to begin.
and the walls spin
and you're paper-thin
from the haze of the smoke
and the mescaline ..."
The Academy Is... played an acoustic version of their set for the San Antonio leg of the AP Fall Ball Tour since Butcher (their drummer) was out sick. Boo, but thank goodness for Youtube!
I went a little overboard and bought 4 pairs of Nine West shoes from 6pm.com when they were on sale last week. Hard to resist cute shoes at $19.95/pair. The sale was suppose to start Friday morning. But when I went to check Thursday night,it had already started! So I swooped in and got all the cute size 5/5.5 shoes. They just arrived today! Super fast shipping (flat rate of about $7).
Yes, I also got these in blue. I like the details on these and a girl can't have too many cute flats. I also got these in size 5 and hello, also a little big. What's up?!
So with tax and shipping, I spent under $100 for 4 pairs of shoes. Most of these are available on other sites (Macy's, Zappos) for regular price ($79+). Score!
Go forth and fill your libraries with media.
Seriously, thanks to everyone for being so amazing and patient. You are the reason I love Vox.
A transformer down the street blew out after catching on fire and power went out completely. We had 5 outages thru the morning but this one literally put us out on the street, complete with a campus-wide evacuation notice.
I sent the entire team home even before the evac notice, now am just laying around watching tellie and cleaning up the apt. Wish I just took the day off or had gone to the beach!
If Ikea and Anthropology had a baby it would be Car Mobel. A German company that carries several interiors lines that are popular in Germany and Scandinavia. I found them on decor8, which is a blog I read religiously, if pretty things and nice houses were a religion. subscribe to them if you haven't already!
I want the thread holder on the left!! <3 <3 <3 Tragically they only ship to Germany.
I just love finding things like this, it really helps to inspire my thrift shopping and polish up my ideas about aesthetic.
Kill me now and put me out of this misery- I actually find these kids adorable.
/Taken at yesterday's campus party./
Btw, it was almost impossible taking a picture of kids yesterday, they were bouncing off the walls from the sugar overload our company provided. I've never seen so much cotton candy around.
i think my announcement went well! glad that everyone is telling me it will work out. :)
Wow, there is SO MUCH sugar flying around the office these days :(. Today I need to pick up ice cream for someone's bday surprise, there's a campud Halloween celebration where I'm sure cookies/candy/cake will be aplenty, yesterday we got a truckload of dove ice cream bars for our giving/charity campign and now I just found out on fb that someone has macaroons from France (must. eat. this) and she is willing to share one with me but "not with anyone else."
Weekend plans: get hair "did", two partays, maze/haunted house in a corn field, embark on quest for tomy "sunshine buddies" and just some good old fashioned errands. I sense fun times ahead.
