D241_1i'm considering bidding on this purse - tis cute, but versatile.  my current purse is a 'relic', which is the same as a fossil, which this is, so i think it would be similar. 

just so you know, fossil/relic is one of the few companies who knows how to size a purse strap.  i tend to like smaller to midsized purses, but mostly, i do not like long shoulder straps.  however, even more than long shoulder straps i hate the tiny straps that look like they should fit over your shoulder, but don't.  or do, but only if you bend your elbow juuust right.  dude, it's like 3 inches of leather, just give it to me!00a4_1

honestly, bad strappage kills so many otherwise lovely purses.  it's seriously the only reason i am not bidding on this cute little baby blue beauty.

ya' hear that liz?  wise(n) up!  i will throw the smack down in retaliation by not buying your purses through a third party on ebay.  scared yet?

oops, sorry.  i believe the mint tea may be rushing to my head. 

i started watching the show Hex tonight - first 2 eps of season 1, and so far, i think i like it.  it's always nice to have something new and fun to watch anyways.   and if i decide to not like it, i can just snark on it :)

i'd like for a new perfectly sized and shaped purse affordable purse to fall in my lap.  if it meets all my ridiculous standards, i'll try not to even kvetch about the price.

new work schedule started today - so far seems pretty interesting.  different, but i think good different.

itunes really needs to figure out that tom waits and tom waits(oops, i hit the spacebar) are the same guy.  or i need to learn to type.

i'm feeling snarky and mean, which probably means i should go to bed, but staying up being betchy is more fun, no?

on second thought, i truly believe there is no day so wrong nor mood so foul that cannot be cured by cheezburger.

omg, just cause i am drunk off my ass and laughing at cute boys with british accents (world according to dunk) does not mean that i do not appreciate a good vintage red shoes.

dear internets, can i borrow $125? please? (via shesabetty)

I haven't been the girl in the photo for about 5 years now, but that's still the girl who shows up as the first person in my dreams.

i'm living a life that doesn't feel entirely mine.  though, it doesn't feel to be anyone else's either.

i lost a husband in 1998 to a drunk driver.  i divorced my best friend in 2003.

but i'm now married again (third time's a charm, right?) to a wonderful man who i don't mention often, only cause i generally like to keep him all to myself and close to my heart.

we're childfree - but don't tell our pomeranian, Dixie "Doodle Kanoodle" (she doesn't know she's not a human!) or our three spoiled kitties.

i read a lot, listen to lots of random music while working, and enjoy playing with code.

i'm geeky, shy, neurotic, silly, and generally lovable despite it all. :)


We went for a walk on the beach yesterday, which was lovely despite the +100° weather.  There is something about the beach that makes the Florida heat seem less cruel.  Perhaps its the breeze, or the sounds of the waves . . . but it's nice.  I often take for granted that I live so close to something that so many travel so far to see just once.

Dscf1378 Lately, my proficiency in life is failing a bit, and I have lots of things I want to say and do, but I'm slowly working towards change.

I'm ready for autumn.  I know spring is the season of change and growth and all that, but fall is so much more my season of fabulous.  And then, the beach will be much more quiet and picnic-worthy!

my desk
not so glamorous, but this is where i spend most of my time.

i'm not sure where my sunday went.  i mean, yea, i had lunch with mom, worked on some web projects, played some sims pet stories,  started reading a new book (appetite for profit) , checked out a new album (mae, singularity) [see sidebar], and got drunk and watched horror movies with the husband (last night).  but, still, somehow, it's never long enough.

i fear that work is going to kick my ass this week, so i need to be sleeping, but i have yet to read the newest post secrets.
