Swatch Watch - VOTE TODAY!



Happy Spring!
I think Spring has finally arrived in Scottsdale...and I personally am about to celebrate by splurging on some Lilly Pulizter attire. Last summer...pink became a signature color for me and I had so much fun, I've decided to repeat the experience! SO - I'm going to buy these pants, I think...just not sure what crazy print (or not) to select. I want your opinions - feel free to be brutally honest - after all, I expect nothing less from my dear friends and family.

PS - I KNOW these patterns are crazy-I'm channelling Crazy Old Ladies here...imagine what I will be like when I AM a crazy old lady. I'm not gonna wait to wear purple!

Welcome Back, Kermie


When we were all commenting on the Superbowl ads, I threw my vote behind the "Its Easy Being Green" commercial by Ford, featuring Kermit the Frog. Since then, he has continued to appear in print and TV ads. As far as I'm concerned, this is the best comeback since John Travolta, and I didn't have to sit through some brutal Tarantino flick to see him again. Kermit. So lovable and dear - isn't it grand to see him again? And don't you envy all the time that Ms. Piggy gets to spend with him? I do. My only disappointment is that he has chosen to "endorse" Ford. Ford - manufacturer of the Mustang, my beloved car that was a total POS...(in the shop all the time in 2 years I owned it). FORD - whose CEO's crediability was questioned by TIME Magazine when the front covered blared "Would you buy a car from this man?" Ford should have refused to put their CEO on the cover, instead replacing him with Kermie. Because, frankly - I find Kermie so irresitable..I would consider it again.

Welcome back into my heart, Kermie. Its good to see you again.

PS - I cut out your photo and put it on my fridge.

MOM! I'm Boooooooooooored


Every wonder why I gravitated toward sales? Its because I hate being bored. Ever wonder why I change my hair all the time and 500 colors of nail polish? I get bored. Ever wonder why I started a blog? Because sometimes simply watching TV and surfing the net isn't enough multi-tasking...I got bored..and wanted to write. Ever wonder why I like to shop? Its never the same - not boring. Ever wonder why I have had so many jobs? I get bored. Well. Sometimes its because I was working for an idiot. Sometimes its because I wasn't get paid enough. Sometimes its because I was foolish enough to do both. BUT - the overwhelming theme is boredom.
So you get the theme here, right?

Guess what? I'm feeling a little bored lately.
I already got a hair cut.
I did my nails tonight.
I'm writing in my blog. (the one on the internet without participation from its readers - boring.)
I'm NOT going shopping. I'm trying to be strong. I might go browsing at lunch.
There IS more than one village idiot in my office, but generally, I like my job.

I do not know what to do. I already surfed the web tonight and created my "dream vacation" - tonight it was St. Lucia...in case your curious. I also spent alot of "dream money". I'm still bored. I dunno.
Anyone who has any recommendations for boredom is more than welcome to make suggestions.

If your not bored with my whining yet.
