Update coming...

...I know it's been a week, but I've been very busy. Here's a quick update and I promise a more detailed one in a few days.

• I've been in Houston all week. We are staying by the gigantic Galleria mall, and we went there Monday night. I got PERFECT shoes to go with the dress for Leeann's wedding. Yay.
• Tuesday night we went to the Astros game. I heart baseball. I got moderately drunk. AJ got very drunk and was yelling at the right fielder that she finds attractive for most of the game. It was awesome.
• Last night we went to a westernwear store because AJ wanted some boots...I may have purchased some things as well. I don't want to spoil it yet, because AJ has an awesome picture that I need to post when I go into more detail.
• Last Friday, I actually got the spray tan I've been wanting to try for like a year. And it was fantastic. I've been a perfect shade of "not ass-white" all week long. This is definitely going to be a weekly event for the summer. It's nice to not be embarrassed by my bare white legs in shorts.
• I have a 7am flight tomorrow. As soon as I get to CLT, I'm getting picked up and brought to Wake for recruiting, where I will be all day until late. NOT looking forward to it. Guess how friendly I'm going to be in the afternoon after having to be on an airplane, fully showered, made up, and in a SUIT at 7am. UGH. At least I don't have to drive myself there.

OK, I promise a better update soon. Hope you're all enjoying the spring weather. I am!

Quickie Update

It's April 15th, and you know what that means...leaving work at 3pm to go bowling and drinking. Woop.

Since I have precious little time in the office to actually do work today, I'm a bit busy...but not so busy that I didn't see this...I think now I've finally selected a spring/summer bag that I very much like:

Kate Spade

Whaddya think?

Don't worry, I'm alive

Sorry I've been blogging MIA for a while now...I didn't really have much time to update. I"ll try to be better in the future, I promise. I want you all to have a way to procrastinate whenever you want.

So last weekend was Rachael and Chris's wedding, and because I'm awesome and forgot my camera, I have no pictures to share. But it was really fun. It was basically a high school reunion one year early. It's amazing how many people will come to a wedding when it's in both people's hometown. That church was packed. Anyway, Rach looked beautiful, and it was a kick ass time. I did NOT want to fly back to CLT at noon the next day...mostly because of all of the alcohol. But also because I was only home for like 36 hours (damn you, Travelocity).

I was in Charlotte last week and it was just a regular old week, nothing to report really. I got my ass kicked by pilates and yoga, and it made me mad that I'm in CLT this week and then I'm gone for 4 weeks. I would love to get back on a regular exercise and eating schedule again. June cannot come soon enough. On Saturday, Susan and I went to the mall to find dresses for various summer weddings. I got one for Leeann's wedding that I LOVE. So I'm pumped about that. I'm going to wear a dress I already have to AT's wedding, because it's not as formal. And because I'm only worn said dress one other time (EW and Jessie's wedding).

The purse situation has not been solved. And there are so many sales, it's just killing me. Susan and I are planning a trip to the Coach outlet in a few weeks, so I don't want to do anything until then, but I'm thinking of just getting the bag below. Yes, it's boring, but it's practical. I came very close to buying the Kate Spade number below this weekend when it was 30% off...I LOVE it, but it just wasn't summery enough for me. Kate Spade seems to constantly have sales now, so if I change my mind, I'll just get it during the next one.

Also, I covet these shoes. How cute.

That's about it for now...I ordered some bathing suits online recently, so I'll let you know how those turn out when they arrive. Hope everyone had a good Easter.

HATE: The Travelocity Installment

So I have the day off today because I'm flying to NJ for a wedding. When I booked this ticket, I went against my better instincts and booked with Travelocity instead of through US Air like I usually do because I saved $80 by making my return flight with Continental instead of US Air. And I was apprehensive, but I like saving $80 so I figured it was fine.

No. I went to leave the house to go swing by the office to submit an expense report and then hit the airport and I checked my flight status first. And it was cancelled. Now, my flights get cancelled every now and then, nothing you can do about that, but when you book with US Air they at least have the courtesy to call you and tell you your flight was cancelled and you need to get a new one. Not Travelocity, my friends. So by the time I contacted US Air, the earliest flight I could get on was either one hour from the time I called (so obviously no), or 5 hours after my original flight. Great. Now I won't get to NJ until 10pm, I won't have time to go to the fancy mall, and I still have to leave on a noon flight Sunday. So I won't even be there for 36 hours. Oh, and Travelocity can't do anything about changing my returning flight to be a later time because of this debacle...and I know this because I called and yelled at them. "Travelocity Guarantee" my ass.

How am I going to stop myself from online shopping all day when I'm just sitting around, knowing that I can't go to the fancy mall tonight? I'm probably not. Also, the damn ballet flats didn't fit right. What a crappy day.
