Dear Sierra…

…this is my updating my blog. Sorry I’ve taken a break, reader.

Here are some good things:

1. I go home on Monday to Camp Waterloo

2. Pandora is playing me wonderful Christmas music, and has been all week long

3. I get to go shopping at the Grove tonight, which is a magnet for celebs. Maybe I’ll see one!

4. I am sending exciting presents to my loves this week

5. Christmas is in a week!!!

How is everything with you, guys?

Happy Halloween Season!

Saturday event at work, running to soccer to coach a game in pearls, getting costume advice from a seven year old, home to go to Target, getting a new calendar board for the hallway, going to Office Depot for a new board for the kitchen with picture frames (one of you and me, SS), going to Staples to get myself a portfolio, home for lunch, talking to my brother for 30 minutes about algebra 2 and life, working on the website with Jeff, a brand new spice rack from Jeff (and the Home Depot) that we put up Saturday night, and bed early.

Sunday farmer’s market, home, breakfast of omelet with heirloom tomatoes and onion, polyurethane on our dining room table, grocery shopping (trader joe’s and ralph’s), home for another coat on the table (but not before sanding), pot roast in the crock pot, laundry at the laundromat, home to a finished pot roast, another coat of polyurethane (sanding, too), a second trip to Ralphs for pumpkins, dinner of pot roast, and then carved four pumpkins. Corelyn’s is looking up, mine looks down. They are friends.

Pictures to come.

Five good things:

1. Carved pumpkins
2. Heirloom tomatoes
3. Finished dining room table, FINALLY
4. A new calendar, and new spice rack for my new spiffy house
5. Updated blogs.

5 Good Things & 5 Annoying Things

We’ll start with the annoying ones, because we love to end on happy notes.

1. When I read things like “Women’s Health” and look at articles that gurantee I’ll lose some pounds just by eating better and right (ie “Don’t drinking soda (check) and look out for sodium, sugar content, and carbs. Check, check, check.)

2. Living in LA with people who are walking around Hollywood like it’s Times Square — only Hollywood and Highland is dirty, and no one should go there.

3. When your job knocks a building down, and you have to leave your office, and they don’t send you home even though that’s all you wanna do!

4. Band aids that rip your skin off.

5. Bike grease.

5 Excellent Things:

1. Going to Becca’s tonight to have dinner with Jeff, Bec, Jen, and Paul.

2. Going to the Third Eye Blind concert TOMORROW.

3. Going home on Friday.

4. A clean desk at work since it’s slowed down enough for me to catch my breath.

5. Third Eye Blind’s new CD, August. (eeeekkk!!)
