funnily enough

none of the aforementioned prezzies made it to my home. instead over the past couple of weeks i ended up getting a mpre better pair of boots from UO (thanks dude!) a pair of the cutest leopard print ballet flats on sale at nordstrom rack ($29) NEW BUSHINGS ON MY CAR!! how sweet is THAT?! $260. a small shopping spree @ forever 21 (tiny hands!) a dress, 2 tops for less than $70. so not too bad - i guess.
i have my car registration to pay this month, and thanks to the flats that i HAD to buy before they sold out of my size, i will be late on my storage payment (due tomorrow). stupid storage unit. i have to get rid of that thing! what a colossal waste of money! dude cleared out some junk in the garage (swears he'll do more) and i just KNOW i can fit my life into that garage. i need to start going through my storage unit and throwing shit away. is that a new year's resolution?
while at nordstrom rack yesterday ANOTHER fabulous pair of loepard print shoes caught my eye! they are ankle boots with, appropriately enough - kitten heels! problem is they are $189. i'm really struggling with talking myself OUT of buying them with this week's check. they are TOTES ADORS! (haha) and i must have them! that would make my collection complete: leopard pumps, flats and boots! i think that might - it just might - complete me leopard print accessories collection! (if one can have 7 different pair of black shoes, why not 3 leopard?!) i think i will have them.
AND be able to give dude $500
AND still keep up.
i think.
i'll make it work, somehow.

oops

i made a mistake at work. i let myself become too engaged with my co-workers and now have to back pedal. i let myself get caught up with a couple of others against the toad. it hasn't gotten ugly yet - but i found myself participating too much in catty (and funny, no doubt about that) gossip and behaviour. i shouldn't have. my motivation should be first and foremost to find another job.
the toad is annoying and i will do my best to ignore her completely going forward.
the others i will politely decline participation and continue to do so until their invitations cease.

prezzie for me!

i'm torn over what i should buy for me this paycheck. it seems to have become a rule or habit for me to take each paycheck and buy myself something i want/need. here are my options:
1. new bra. i found a felina style that i like and fits well $49
2.dress @ urban outfitters. it's long and grey and i just kinda liked it. it would look super cute with the hat i just bought there in exchange for shoes dude got me for christmas that didn't fit.
$45-50
3. booties that i just fouund on overstock.com. i've been looking for ankle booties and they have them in taupe (i don't want another pair of black or brown shoes) the problem is i can't try them on. maybe i'll go to nordrom's and try them on first $29 (STEAL!)
4. aveda be curly hair stuff (cuz i can never seem to have enough)
i can always do a combination of 1 or 2 with 3 or 4. or put off 4 all together and find the travel size that my closet seems to have eaten.
5. get the blue black lo-lites that i've been wanting. i plan on evening out the overall color this weekend - so i can go to floyd's and get the lo-lites done cheap...maybe.
i guess i'll try the shoes on first. maybe the shoes and the dress! with the new hat?! CUTE!
but finding a good bra is always a struggle for me.
decisions decisions.

OH!! then there's the list of books and such i want on amazon! hmmm....
