Random Tuesdayness - The One Where I Just Finished Numbering 671 Items Individually By Hand

I went shopping this evening for Miss Taryn's birthday and found this shirt... I need to find one for myself... or have it made!

randomtuesdayIt's Tuesday, but not for much longer so I thought I better get this show on the road! It's time for some random. If you want to play, go talk to Keely. Not that you don't get that every other day of the week, but ya know, it gives me a good excuse at least for today.

I came across this poem today, written by a good blogger friend of mine and I thought it was excellent... so I thought I'd share it with y'all!

The Bed

It loomed large
The focal point of the room
Plush and inviting
Silk sheets
Plump pillows
Naked flesh
She sighed
Not content, frustrated
Wondering, yet again, how she got here
Laying in this oasis of luxury
She never felt more lonely...
...while she was not alone.

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate being broke? Well I do. That is all.I went to the pool Sunday with Noelle and my new floaty. She liked it so much we ran to the store so she could buy one as well! If you want a little piece of heaven, go buy one of these. I got to the pool at 10:30 that morning and didn't leave until 5:30 that evening. I spent the whole day sitting in the sun/floating in the pool and I couldn't have been happier! (BTW, that's not me on my floaty, but my floaty looks like that...in pink!)

Shoot me now. My eyes are so tired I can hardly keep them open. I just finished numbering 671 rows in an Excel spreadsheet... I had started the project last week and got about 2/3 the way finished. My PM then told me to number it with a different prefix, so I had to start from scratch. To make it worse, I'm wearing my glasses... and now my eyes are googley!
Today is Taryn Louise's birthday and I feel awful that I can't see her! How am I supposed to be the Best Tata in the World when I'm in Alabama? Well, I went shopping for her gift after work so at least I have her pressies and can give them to her upon my return! Happy Birthday, Princess! I love you!

I'm in the middle of Week 3 of what I hope to be only 4 weeks in Bama and I'm sooo over it! When I got in yesterday, I walked out of the airport to get in the car and I felt like my legs were suffocating in my jeans. It was 107 with the heat index! WTF!!! Yes, I realize it's hot and you're asking why I wear jeans... Well, it tends to get cold on the plane and it's easier to wear pants!I got some new nail polish and I love it! I was obviously in a mood when I bought them because they're all kinda similar. Totally cute, though!

Have I mentioned I'm going to Vegas in a few months? We're going in October instead of December this year in hopes of changing things up a bit. I'd like to try and see Zumanity (which is dark in December) and we were hoping to have warm weather instead of freezing our asses off. Plus, it won't be so close to Christmas!
I did my toes last night... They were scary and I needed something to do. I don't usually go for colors like this, but I just couldn't pass it up... and I think it's pretty cute. I even recycled a few rhinestones! I'm good like that!
I was skitting around on Facebook yesterday and saw this picture on Cass's profile... and subsequently fell inlove with it. What can I say? I'm easy to please. Isn't it gorgeous? (Cass said I could post it, by the way.) Anyway, I thought she took it with her fabulous camera and photoshopped it. Guess what? She didn't... it's an app on Droid! Crazy, huh? Now it's on my phone... I'll share some pics when I get some as gorge as this one!

Ok, I took an Ambien and we all know what happens when I take one and don't go to bed. I'm off. Sweet dreams!

Happy belated, Taryn Louise. And I want that floaty. But I'd really like a pool to go with it more.
