stop staring at me

There is a dog staring at me. She stares intently. It feels like her glare is burning a hole straight through my head. Its almost frightening. She puts her gigantic paw on the window to get my attention. I turn around to ignore her and I can feel it. The staring. I know she's doing it again. I try to fight the urge to turn around but I have to. I turn for the window and she's not there. No. Now she's at the sliding door. Staring. Her tongue hanging out and panting. Her eyes giving me a message. A message of "you better watch out".

Yeah we are dog sitting Siva. She is a miniature horse better known as a german shepard. She is still a pup but she's huge. Daisy and Siva are having fun. There is a lot of making out and face humping going on. We are ok with Daisy's lifestyle decisions as long as she's happy.

Its so nice to have a 3day weekend! Work has been stressful and a bit overwhelming. At times it got to the point you don't even want to go to work because of the possibility of something getting worse or going completely wrong. We found out our company has been officially sold. Its exciting to think of the changes like new technology and possibly better practices set in place to make the business more efficient and cost effective. It is still scary because with any new company taking over you never know what changes good or bad will take place.

Even though we didn't have any big plans this weekend I told Zac its a personal decision to give back to mother nature by not increasing our carbon footprint. I have to make myself feel better somehow and not be jealous about people taking vacations in California while we dogsit. Um...I said too much. Its ok I had a nice surprise on Friday night. I completely forgot Danielle was coming into town and so I not only got to see her for a couple hours but we had dinner at Trattoria Pina. It was good and its always better when you know people.


Life is good and we still have two more days!

is it really true?

We received some interesting news at work today. We are happy to know something finally happened. Not knowing was half of the headache for the past 5 months. Now I think we are still in for a rough patch but at least we know where we are headed, kind of.

Read more here if you wish.

a shoe for the crazies

Would you buy this shoe? I really hope you say you wouldn't. If you could make shoes would this be something you would want to copy?

Would you pay over $200 for this?

It will probably do really well for those people that decide to sell it.


I'm just amazed.

random thought of the day

i wish i were british.

i want to move to England. i want a cool accent. i want to live in a castle.

tuna fish patties

a friend of mine from work has decided that we can't say we "crave" anything anymore. As soon as the other ladies at work hear the youngins use the word "crave" they start assuming that we are pregnant.

instead we started saying we "yearn" for certain things.

right now I'm yearning for some tuna fish patties. i had to call my mom because when you look up recipes online they always call for some sort of fancy shmancy ingredient and I know my mom never did the fancy stuff.

oh yum.

Quinoa

I don't think I like it. I have had it twice now and its not my thing. Maybe I didn't make it right. Maybe I'm a lost cause. If it isn't spicy then why....

spicy quinoa?

quinoa

its fun to say

Californication and ice cream

I'm watching David Duchovny have sex with several women. Not all at the same time but still...

One of the ladies that he has sex with is played by actress Madeline Zima. She is the girl that played Grace Sheffield from The Nanny. Little Grace Sheffield is there right in front of me having sex with Mulder.

Its creepy and I don't like it. I didn't turn it off.

My brain is mush. I'm done thinking. I want to write about work and get that all out of my brain but then after I write it I erase. I don't even want to hear about work why would anyone else? I'm just amazed how dirty the fashion business can get. You expect this stuff from fashion houses of LA or New York but where business is conducted and money is priority there will always be problems and issues. I guess and know things could be worse. It helps when you have someone in your corner to help fight your battles and I appreciate those people.

I also don't understand why Ben & Jerry's hasn't created the never ending tub of ice cream. It is really sad.

these boots were made for walking

today is one of those days. i'm dreading going to work simply for the fact that i don't want to hear anymore about a boot that is ruining my life. i'm so dramatic.

yesterday i spent all day repeating myself to everyone explaining what i knew about a boot that wasn't here yet. was i supposed to foresee the future and know that i should start raising flags? was i supposed to know that my contact would be on vacation yet her email is a personal account and her phone number is her cell number? was i supposed to know that my contact wouldn't call or email me back?

i love that we get yelled at for a mistake that another company made. i agree it is our concern but why make people feel like shit and that the whole world will end because we don't have this boot. before this boot i had and still have issues with 3 other shoes that are major problems. yet those have all been pushed aside. the boot rules the world right now.

stupid me for not being psychic. i think i'll become a ninja now. maybe pirates hijacked the ship that had my boots and now there are pirates roaming the seas with very stylish mid-calf high boots. its a possibility i might bring up.
