I love that my parents have cable even though I have a million things to do and it's hugely distracting. The wedding shows aren't that helpful (because it's not a "destination" wedding with a $55K budget), but we did see a popsicle-inspired home office makeover that convinced me and mom to have bright hued popsicles at the wedding.
I'm glad there's decent shopping--grocery and clothing--in and around McAllen, TX (though I'll have to go to San Antonio for outlets). I will miss Nordstrom, Nordstrom Rack and my favorite independent bookstore.
Today I'm wearing silk Ralph Lauren trousers I bought at D.I. for $8.
Bad mood? Time to buy a new lipstick.
My officemate has a new habit of propping the office door open all day (retaliation after we asked her to turn her music down because it was distracting). Today the door wasn't open wide enough to go through without turning sideways, so I opened it wider to facilitate ingress/egress and somewhat out of spite. The hallway noise is annoying, but I don't want the perp to know I'm bothered because that was her aim. So by opening the door even wider, using it frequently and contributing to hallway conversations, I demonstrate how officially unperturbed I am. Right?
In the meantime, I still have to endure the endless bitching about her living situation, how little she respects her gay (not her term) professor, how Christian she believes herself to be, how stupid everyone else is and other personal drama flotsam she calls her mom about. It could be worse: she could be calling ME to bitch. I'd rather be unwilling spectator than a participant, that's for sure.
Hmm. Maybe I should file that last one under "petty" instead of shallow.
PS: Now the door is closed so aforementioned officemate won't be disturbed during her NAP.
