Bring it on children....Bring. It. On.

So it's back to school week.

Hooray.

Which means work will be kicking my arse this week. Oh well--that's life. My laptop is still dead, but the rents came through. Since Mom is on hiatus from school this semester because of her big time promotion at the hospital, I get to use a computer that doesn't weigh 13 lbs (yes, my HP weighs 13 giant pounds!). I'm thinking that perhaps it is time to get a new computer. I've had the old one since..hmm...um. Well, 2003? Yea. Methinks it's time.

So now I'm taking a break from working on a big project (because I've hit a brick wall and if I look at the screen for any longer, I swear to god my retinas are going to pop off my eyes). Maybe it's time for a cocktail. Yes. I think it is. Maybe that will make things go better? Probably not, but oh well.

And to cap things off, why oh why did I agree to work this Saturday? Money is always nice, but I have a feeling I may be a tired girl. At least I don't have to be in until 11:30. Thank god for small favors.

But I did get one thing marked off my "to do" list this week. Two, actually. I got my six care package things for Haiti made and started my b-day shopping for Colleene's little boy. I was at the bookstore at Butler tonight, and something super cute caught my eye. Got to indoctrinate that child early..so he knows what's what : )

Too bad shopping for me isn't so easy. I looked for like three hours on Friday and found NADA. Just perfume and some Boing concealer (LOVE IT!) from Sephora. Everything I tried on looked fantastic...from the waist down. I finally got so fed up at Macy's I asked the sales woman for some advice.

And you know what I got?

I was told that maybe I needed to look into something "You know--spandexy".

I'm sorry, what? Like something that Marey Carey would wear? Is that you were implying? Awesome. That's the freaking best you've got? When you are paid on commission even? I cannot be the only woman in the world with bigger than normal breasts who wants to buy a damn dress! So the search goes on.

Hopefully not in vain.

Damnit.
