loving
that there is going to be a royal baby!!  horray!!!  (though being excited about this news makes it official: i'm so totally an old lady ;)

luxuriating
in the fact that i found my very important box of very important items that i put somewhere safe and then forgot about.  it contains our check books (try paying your landlady without one - online banking saved the day ;) and my glitter and ribbon collection.  thankfully it's been located and Christmas can commence without further ado :)  because you can't make glittery ornaments without glitter and ribbon....

wondering
just what is so magical about the bloody North Face Denali jacket.  because, like EVERYONE here wears them... so clearly that means i must need one too.  but $199? (with no sales tax;)  i just can't pay it, that's Oprah money... surely it has some kind of solar central heating system in it or it charges your phone (solar-ly) or has solar lo-jack to warrant such a crazy price tag?  i won't pay it unless it does.  and even then i won't.................. i will pay $49 (with no sales tax;)

loving
Martha's Vineyard.  but i have a confession: i do NOT want a home there even if it's next door to the house Barack Obama stays in in the Summer.  (hmm, maybe i would have a second home there...)  taking a ferry to get to Target and Walmart would be so awful - yes, even on vacation!!!  but oh my gosh, it was SO OBSCENELY CUTE over there :|  i bet Michelle Obama is one of those annoying stick people who still works out on vacation - nope, i actually don't even want the house next door 

needing
to make salt dough to make adorable ornaments...gawd i hate crafts but i do love looking at them in years to come when all the cleaning up and cursing has long been forgotten

hating
Tiffany ornaments.  they need Jonathan Adler to help them out because they just suck (except this one but still, that red ribbon??  eww)

also hating
the trend for badly behaved elves - elves should be banned from instagram!!!!

wanting
to walk to the beach with the dogs... back later xoxo
