…from the office Christmas party.  I was drinking wine and I ate a lot of cream puffs, so please excuse me if I don’t make much sense.

Today was warmer and it didn’t rain.  Thank goodness.  Rain is boring.  So very boring.  I still played it safe and wore my leather jacket…just in case.

Most of today was spent between YouTube, Twitter and Bloglovin.  I don’t know why, but I felt off and in no mood to do actual work.  Well, moreso than usual.  I think I need to get more sleep.  I’ll be lucky if that actually happens.

Tre, it’s colder than normal (low 50′s in  the daytime)…which really isn’t that cold by comparison to everyone else in the US.  However, I will say that loads of snowfall have prevented many a person from being able to go home tonight.

Scary.

((You’ll have to excuse the wonky eye.  Don’t feel obligated to go back and look at it.))

I’m so glad that I’m home with a cup of hot cocoa and a fire to sit in front of.   SoCal fam, please drive safely.  You know how badly people suck at driving in the rain out here.  Un-locals, don’t you judge us.  =)

They exist. A pair of (non-Doc) flat boots that EYE  like actually exists. Thanks to KnightCat for the heads up. 

I’m on a spending freeze (THE HORROR), so I can’t buy them.  If anyone out there does, please get them in an 8 so I can periodically jack you for them.  Pleaseandthankyou.

I know I don’t usually post the celebrity/model/magazine editor photos, but I think everyone’s interest in Kate Lanphear is justified.  HOW DOPE is this sleevless blazer?  Seriously?

Seen at Jak & Jil

I’m going to be really good friends with  this camera. 

So last night was an evening filled with friends, food, a whole lot of wine, and shit talking.  I love my friends.  We’re such a fun bunch.  I can’t tell you the jist of the conversations for several reasons, but I will say that there’s always one more thing to learn…

This is what I wore: simple black top with a black cardy, that skirt I made, my ‘doily’ tights as Jaz so named them, and those Guess shoes I can’t get enough of.  

If only I could get studio lighting…

I’m still experimenting with my new toy, so we’ll see how this new season of photos turns out. 

Hope you’re all having a great weekend.  =)

Did you really think that it was going to take over two days to decide what I needed to do?  Especially with added peer pressure? 

You know me better than that.

I am officially on Cloud 9 – especially since Best Buy told me I didn’t have to pay for this beacon of gloriousness for another 6 months.

I should probably get back to work now…

How do I know?  Because something horrible and something great happened to me before 11:00 this morning.

Something horrible:  my camera broke.  It won’t even turn on. This sucks. This sucks majorly.

Something great:  I got a Herve Leger pencil skirt for $7 and a cloisonne bracelet for $1 (been looking for one of those for a LONG time). The annual charity sale at work was plentiful this year. Plentiful indeed.

• Does this mean that I have the green light to splurge on a D60?
• Does this mean I need to stop spending money?
• Does this mean that I am supposed to stop blogging?

I have no idea what is in store for the rest of the day.  The department dinner/gift exchange is tonight, and I still have yet to buy my gift…I think I’ll do that at lunch.

Ugh.  MY CAMERA IS BROKEN!!!!!

Remember when I said I had to run out to some gig at the Melrose G-Star on Thursday?  Ok, maybe I didn’t say all of that, but here are some photos courtesy of the super-awesome Kara who I am beginning to lurve hanging out with.  Thanks, girl!  And tell Mike, Jesse, and the other J I said hey!

Highlights of the night:

• That dude’s shiny silver brogues
• Talking about blogs with the gang
• Kara thinking I was about to buy a pair of extremely low rise G-Stars (never in life – LOL)
• Getting chewed out by the G-Star employees for leaving cups on the display units
• Listening to the odd mix of music being played (“Ring of Fire”…really?)
• That model chick fancying my boots
• GAVIN.  First, he hit the shit out of my car trying to park his right in front of me…then he tried to game me up.  Hilarious.

We should do this again sometime.  Sometime soon.  LOL.

*I’m happy I didn’t have to pay for it.  That’s all I will say.
