Happy 2012 folks! I can't believe we're in a new year already.
Random musings on the first day of this year...
- Soooooo glad I made the choice to go out last night instead of sitting in and sulking. I ended up out with one of my BFFs and we had fun! The party was kinda wack, but we got to get all dolled up, dance, drink, toast the new year, eat greasy food in the middle of the night & generally have a good time. I'm still a little shocked that she spent NYE with me (as opposed to her new hubby), but it was so sweet and how I love her so for it. She's seriously one of my all time favorite people on the planet and I'm so lucky to be as close to her as I am.
- I told myself that I'd start my new lifestyle today, but I'm not exactly sure who I was kidding. LOL. Ideally, I'd have started today but I do better when I'm on a schedule. So if I don't start tomorrow, I'm definitely going to start on Tuesday when I go back to work ( :: insert deep sigh and trembling lower lip here, about going back to work that is :: )
- The new Dance Mom's season 2 snippet? Makes we want to slap Mia's mom every time. She completely got punked and I feel some kind of way about it. This has no real basis to my day, but I thought I'd share nonetheless. (It just showed up on my TV as we speak. ACK.)
- Whole Foods intimidates me. I was there earlier, and lasted all of 2 minutes. First, there's so much that I almost don't know where to look which makes me think of Ikea and ZOMG Ikea makes my head explode. Secondly everything screams "ORGANIC WHICH MEANS GET OUT BECAUSE YOU DON'T REALLY KNOW HOW FANCY THIS IS", noted especially when organic garlic sells for $7.99/lb. When I saw that, I promptly grabbed my purse out of the basket and left because seriously, aspiring foodie or not, I don't taste any difference in garlic that's $3.29/lb and $7.99/lb so I'm certainly not paying for it.
- I met a guy in the grocery store today and I was nice. I know. I'm really trying very hard to be open and listen and so far, so good. We won't talk about his outfit and general corniness, but I gave him my number and he text me later and said "You are a blessing for sure. I felt it." <-- how awesome was that?? When I saw that, it brought a smile to my face. Especially since when we met, I was wearing sweats, a wrinkled Carolina t-shirt, glasses & not a stitch of makeup. Any man who can call me a blessing looking like that sees something special for sure, LOL.Plus he mentioned that he wanted to actually call me for a date. *whew* We'll see. Certainly inspiring for my new resolutions.
To conclude the first night of 2012, I will be eating shrimp scampi that should be here any second, finish the bottle of wine so it's out of the house for sure, & curl up with a new Lifetime movie. Tomorrow will be about getting myself mentally ready for the back-to-the-grind routine of work, school & life!
Happy New Year!
