I Give Up. It's Going Back.

Our apartment stinks of acetone and disappointment tonight. Sally Hansen nail polishes were buy one/get one free last week at CVS. Naturally, I couldn't resist and I decided that it was time to try the pricey stuff. So, I bought myself a Color Quick pen and a Nail Art pen thinking that it would make for a really quick french manicure. NOT. Hate them both. The Color Quick pen comes out clumpy and the Nail Art pen is too hard to steady, so my nails came out looking crappy.... four times. That's right. I painted my nails four times before calling it quits for the night. I still have the receipt, but not the boxes they came in. I'm going to try to return them to CVS, and I'm going to try to get buy one/get one on a better polish.

Boring People Make Ugly Dolls

Don't get me wrong, I have never seen nor read anything Twilight. Vampires just aren't my thing. I also wish that people weren't so obsessed with the boring actors. Seriously, they're boring. Get them off of my gossip sites!

BUT, I'd like to think if I were any of the "stars" of the series, I would be totally offended by how terribly unfortunate looking these action figures (see also: dolls) are.

Picture Perfect!

This is what our living room looks like currently:

We're in the process of moving. It's going a lot better than it looks, I promise. But to be completely honest with you, we don't actually own furniture... so even before we started to move, it was just a big, empty room.

I'm excited to make our next apartment a home. I can't wait to decorate! I love picture frames. I think that pictures in nice frames are a great way to add personality to decorating. The big problem with displaying pictures is trying to find a way to display all of my favorites without it looking cluttered. Enter, PopSugar's cousin, CasaSugar. We all know that I love my celebrity gossip, but today it actually gave me a super idea:

IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE!!!!!!!!

T-minus 75 minutes until.......

.Vanessa.Dan.Serena.Nate.Chuck.Blair.Jenny.

And until then, an update on my surprisingly busy life:

My birthday was fabulous. Steve surprised me with Dunkin Donuts, a super-cute shirt and a clean car! We walked around the mall, then had dinner at Mr. Sushi and ice cream at Cold Stone. It was a great birthday... and surprisingly, 23 didn't hit me as hard as 22 did... remember that? Anyway, 22 turned out to be a pretty awesome year and I'm looking forward to 23 being just as great!

We took a fun trip to find a new place to live because our lease is almost up... and if we don't figure out something, we're going to be homeless. I think the trip was a success. It sure was tiring! I'm pretty excited, though... can we say "cable included"??

Work has been keeping me busy. It's really not so bad for a job. It's good for now, but certainly not forever.

The next few weeks will be busy busy between packing and getting things in order to move. Thank goodness for one thing..... GG starts in 1.25 hours!

Today's My Birthday!

...who doesn't love a day that celebrates me??
