such a loser

I was reminded of what a true loser I am 3 times over the past week. Quite embarassing for me - yet oh so entertaining:

1) bought an ear piece for my phone since I don;t like driving and talking on the phone. MAC and I ask the sales rep if the one I liked would work on my phone. he looked at it and said yes so I proceed to make the pruchase. Go home, unwrap the package and try it out. OF COURSE the damn thing does;t fit so I am all pissed but no way I am turning back to return it. So comes Sunday and we are ready to go ALL the way back to best buy to return the piece. first decide to buy a right one at an actual verizon store. I explain to the guy that I just bought one and it didn;t work and the guy was all surprised. and then out of nowhere MAC was like, where did yo plug it in? and I showed him the obvious answer of the same hole I use for my AC. they both are like DUH you idiot - it goes in the other hole. DOn;t you hate that?! I love that MAC like waited for me to be in public to make the realization that I was a dumb girl that can't handle technology.

2) went to go pick up my pants from Saks, yes yes I shop there ALL the time. JK!!!! so MAC and I are walking out of the union square garage and we go to the store and everything looks out of place. I am just like, hmm, I could have sworn there was so and so on this floor and I could't find the elevator and I was all confused. so find the area where I assume I should go and tell the sales lady I wanted to pick up my jeans and I hand her the receipt. she looks at it and was like - this is for saks and I was like, yesssss...and she was like - we are in neimans. and I am like I KNEW IT! DAMN DAMN DAMN.

3) MAC and I are at starbucks and I decide I don;t want a chai but a coffee. back in the day I used to get an americano with my coworker like every day. So I decide to go for that. MAC asks me what is in an americano and I expertly answer, it is coffee and milk. so I order and the guy making the drink was like - well, there is no milk in an americano and I am like yes there is DUH. he is like nope - americano is a watered down espresso - I get to put my own milk in it. yea - I have a brain.

Moral of the story:
1) I am lame
2) why is MAC always with me when I make a fool of myself?!

soul glo

so want to know if you all believe in a soul mate. I know this is going to annoy MAC but I feel like I am somewhat pessimistic on the whole one and only soul mate. Is there really just 1 person out there for me and for some cosmic reason I found him?! (FYI MAC is MY one and only.) it just seems so ludicrous to think that way though. Perhaps there are a handful of people that one could make the cut. but then that is just sad to think that there is someone else potentially out there. are you supposed to meet all these people at some point in your life or maybe even none at all? life and love are weird.

I'm hungry

so hard to eat dinner when it is like time to go to bed! thank you MAC for making me a lovely steak dinner! he is so nice!!! As predicted the rest of the month is going to be pretty painful. I swear I am amazed that I continue to work insane hours and think nothing of it. Life does not have to be like this!!

so this weekend have a friend whose BF is proposing to her!!! is it weird that she pretty much knows it is happening? I mean she got to pick out her ring! not sure what I think about that. Not like I have a choice - I think MAC is getting me (well, hopefully someday!!) whatever ring he feels is appropriate and I have no say about it!

UGH

thought work would slow down but nope - I am stuck in some CRAP till the end of the month. I mean some major crap. There is SOOO much to do I am totally overwhelmed. but at least I am coming home every night! MAC and I did all our furniture rearranging this past weekend and I have to say it made a huge difference. I love the idea of coming HOME to a place that I decorated. the set up makes me so happy and we finally hung up a few more pictures and I love it. Having bare white walls kind of puts a damper on the feel of a home. I even got "creative" and had MAC get a blown up pic of one of our favorite costa rica shots for our wall. Nope - not the shot of the broken toilet on the last night there but one of the coolest trees in the world!

watching scream 3 right now. why in the world are there 3 of these movies?? like it is even remotely possible that sydney could make it past sequal 2!

franz killers blue angles - oh my

you would think that having an event packed weekend would equate to good times all around...unfortunately this weekend was not the case. Franz show on thurs was ok - not superb but good entertainment. sat saw the killers, arcade fire and modest mouse. Really enjoyed the killers - did you know the singer is mormon? the guy seemed DRUNKITY drunk - but they were fun. My favorite though was arcade fire - they were awesome and weird and hilarious! sun watched blue angels which was all right - I mean they do the same stuff every year so no element of surprise really. unfortunately all these fun events were overshadowed by crappy times with MAC. nothing major - lots of little things just building up. happy the weekend is over...Monday's seem like a fresh start for everything. Unless you are hung over on monday. which I am no - but I am just sayin'.

tonight's the night

my show is ON!!!! come hang out with me and watch so you think you can dance finale! so excited! I mean last week was the highlight watching blake get kicked off so the winner (still not sure if it is 1 boy AND 1 girl) is somewhat obvious.

I am off to LA on friday for training. I am actually somewhat excited since I get to hang out with my cool coworker M2 who I never get to see since I never go to the office. Consulting is such an interesting field. being on the road on all these different projects really makes it hard to connect with people unless they are on your project team. And even if they are most likely they are not in the same office as you so you never get to see them casually on a friday in the office:(

today is going to be a chill day at work. not sure why I even bothered coming in since I could do all of this from home. oh well. I actually do like my team so it is nice being at the client site.

la lal la it's tuesday

watched some tv last night. Finally got to check out arrested development - thanks to J-do's raving about it. I had no idea what the show was about but definitely not what I expected! that shit was fun-nay! such random crap you can't go wrong. not sure if I am ready to check out lost but all of ya'll seem to heart it so obviously must be good.

I have a new route I am taking to work and it is making quite a difference in my morning road rage. MAC still thinks I jump the anger gun too quickly but I think these 2 days have been quite improved.

I am about to do some online shopping at ann taylor. yup - I love basic work attire that is affordable and somewhat fashionable! I want to say preppy but I don;t think I am a preppy dresser. what does that even mean? I don;t wear sweaters tied around my shoulders and that is what I think of when I hear the work preppy. is that wrong?!

back to work

this morning was not a -"ok I have to go to work now" morning. so not in work mode - I want to go shopping and sleep more and have my stupid computer work when I try to log in to outlook.

thanks ladies for a lovely weekend! i definitely feel like i had some balance from fri - sun in terms of chilling and doing what I wanted and not being TOO stressed out when I can;t make it to some party or something...example - fri I had some happy hour that I could have gone to but I chose to not stress out and not try to cram in that event with dinner reservations. Ideally we would have gone to both but at least I wasn;t all panicked!

sat was lovely! can;t get over that pile of puke poor little anna left us! sunday was very pretty in SF - did some shopping which made me very happy - and then cooked with MAC and had a great dinner! watched desparate housewives and called it a night.

I am taking off thurs this week cuz I am seeing franz that night!!! then fri going to LA for the day and sat going to the download festival! major music weekend:)
