flux

More pathetic days at work.  Shocker?  Not at all.

Spent money at Sephora.  My pretty much #1 favorite thing to do.  I love buying make up and beauty products.  I got a refill on my foundation.  I use Clinique "Even Better" Make up in Linen.  Because I'm pale.  And that foundation gives me some moisture without being greasy.  I like it.  Thank you Sephora sales associate that suggested it to me months ago.

I also got my #1 favorite mascara ever.  Lancome Hypnose.  Of course I like it.  I've used it before, but not recently because it is pretty expensive.  I bought it in a set this time with eye liner and eye lash primer. It was a killer deal.  The mascara by itself is $25.  The set of full size products was $30.  Could.  Not.  Say.  No.

It was nice retail therapy after another crap-tastic work day.

Today I got Corey his main Christmas present.  I really had no idea what to get him.  He has basically everything he wants, so I just settled for something I knew he would like.  Hope I'm right. :/

I have to find a present for my mom.  She wants a vintage/"not mainstream or published" cookbook.  We'll see how successful I am at finding that.

If you have not watched "Marry The Night" by Lady Gaga in music video form, you should.



If you do not keep up with "Epic Meal Time," you should.  It is a YouTube channel of people who make epic meals.



*steps on soapbox* You know what upsets me?  When people get worked up about their problems and take it out by being hateful to others who have nothing to do with it. *steps down from soapbox*

i hate Christmas parties

Wow.  I have not posted in a month.  Not good.

I attribute it to getting cable and watching too much TV.  Which is a plausible explanation.  I watch Discovery Health all day.  Day after day of Trauma:  Life in the ER and I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant.

Or I go to work.  Which is even less exciting.  Staffing has been pathetic lately.  I just hope this weekend is better.

I have a couple Christmas presents bought and wrapped.  The other ones are sitting in the office of my apartment complex.  I am afraid I didn't get Corey enough :/  He is a hard one to buy for since he pretty much just gets whatever he wants.  I haven't thought of what to get him that he hasn't thought to get himself already yet.

On the other hand, Corey already got me exactly what I wanted for Christmas!  All I have wanted this year has been a Keurig coffee brewer.  He gave it to me early, because he knew I would find it and ruin the surprise.  So he ruined it for me :)  I'm not disappointed.  I have used it every day!  I love it just as much as I thought I would.  I have regular coffee, hot tea, and hot chocolate K-Cups so far.  And each cup really does come out absolutely perfect.

Other things that happened since I posted last:

Put up the Christmas tree



Went home for Thanksgiving

the shale pit near my Aunt's house

Dad and Ruby


Got a new couch

Yes, we tore the old couch to pieces

Very comfy!

There we are.  I will try to do a little better at posting this month.  Happy December!
