The simple things

Consuming stuffed olives and sparkling wine makes me wayyyyy too happy (read tipsy)

A happy dog, (smiling and tail wagging ) makes for a happy me

Crisp sweet apples

Driving in the country on a sunshine filled day fills me with happiness and inspiration

And all this i have done today!

Exciting.......no really!

Last night i embraced my geekish nature and that of some good friends:) and trotted off to see the new X-Files movie. While it was better then the reviews said, which isnt saying much really.....and it didnt leave me craving more.....it was enjoyable, but entirely forgettable. Sigh. So much potential. And the bit after the credits...WTF? But overall not a bad effort...

Woke up to rain today. Planning on fully embracing the rainylazysunday lifestyle. Slept in. Reading. Watching tv. cooking etc. if i am motivated enough i may laundry!
Im re-loving peppermint tea and plan to drink way too much of it today!

Random confessions....

I love Musicals........Way. Too. Much.
While of course the more fantastic the better....even mediocre musicals cause joy and rapture from my end. Theatre musicals, movie musicals...all good.
If i had the option of joyously and/or torturously bursting into song at random intervals in real life...i would. Its true. Sigh.


I love gossip mags and online gossip sites. I watch Gossip Girl online. I read the Gossip Girl books before they became cool for teens. If you mention this to me in real life i may have to deny it! Its a guilty pleasure of mine. Top secret, very embarrassing. Obviously!

I just watched "The Celebrity Singing Bee" and..............enjoyed it. Oh the shame.


I have now ruined any credibility i may have enjoyed. Hmmmm....who am i kidding....i was never credible:) So with my head hung in shame i will bid you dear reader, adieu!

This week in review

* I found my ideal teapot! Purple with a gold rim and spout...and a price tag of $400. Ill be admiring from afar me thinks.

*I am frustrated and upset by the lack of loyalty and gumption shown by certain people i work with. I would love to build a bridge and get over it....however i dwell, im an expert dweller..and i just cant believe how brain numbingly oblivious some people can be.

*This week i've reacquainted myself with Madonna's The Immaculate Collection..is it still 1983? I think not...but still loving the pure pop pleasure of classic 80's Madge.

*Its often surprising who you just naturally click with...and with who you have to work at clicking with...and with who you can have an entire conversation with without uttering a word. Its been a week of conversations, to be sure, both spoken and not so spoken:)

*Its sometimes the little things that make a week. A nice new nail polish, a smile, a crisp apple, an unexpected email. Then again its hard to miss the big things.

Post over...go play:)
