shopping spree
Mood:  quizzical
Topic: Day to Day
Ok, i'm blogging like a mad woman. Why? Because I need to sort some stuff out in my head.

What to avoid prior to actually starting a new job? Spending the money you don't have yet. Thoughts such as using dollar bills for toilet paper should not cross one's mind. Besides, it's not that much money and it's no reason to walk away from a fairly frugal lifestyle. As it is, I had my first major shopping trip in 5 months - this is major for me because I don't buy a lot of stuff. I bought $60 of makeup at Este Lauder. Ok, I only bought 2 things, but that's how much makeup costs. Bronser and tone corrector. Bronser will be great for clubbing, but should not be used liberally outside of that.

I also bought 2 godiva truffles, which made me sick from the strong caffeine. The seasonal pumpkin truffle comes in an appropriately decorative foil, and I highly recommended that everyone tries it. It's like a pie filling, yum!

I also picked up my suit and that's where the buck stops. Except I may pick up a Pink shirt tomorrow.

It's much healthier to phantasize about purchases. Here's my list, that will be executed in the order written.

1. new jacket as a present for self after actually accepting a job. Maybe even two.
2. house
3. new furniture
4. fast speed internet
5. MP3 player - I must be the last person on earth who doesn't have one.
6. Digital camera


Tomorrow's to-do's:
fax papers
pee for drug test
work out
mail
tickets
shirt
go to interview
watch a hockey game and hang out with SY if she's around

Ok. I just tried to post on here and it didn't work. This is what I said:

Got your voicemail and congrats! Please add #7 to your list: Plan a vacation with A (Europe? Canada?) as she will most definitely need one in March '05 when all her grad applications are out.

Miss you!
