whoa, a lot of blogging action in the last 2 days

I missed the blog yesterday, too. I've been buried in excel for the past couple of weeks because we're trying to upload all of our spreadsheets to this new database that's supposed to make our lives a lot easier, but it's driving me nuts, instead! hopefully it'll be over soon.. .i just have a few more spreadsheets to deal with. I decided I'm going to teach a temp how to do the worst of it today, so at least I won't have to deal with it anymore!

anyway, I do still keep a journal, although I don't write in it as much as I wish I did. I actually pulled it out sunday night and re-read some journal entries that make me happy, and I definitely flipped quickly through entries that were sad. I love my journal, it always cheers me up. right now I'm using a notebook that evelyn gave me. it's a regular notebook, but it has a smurf on the cover, and evelyn wrote me a really nice note on the first page when she gave it to me. re-reading that always makes me smile. I have a couple of random entries on my computer, too, from the times when I'm too lazy to write. so yeah, my thoughts are a little scattered.

on bluetooth-- I know exactly what you're talking about, megan! those bluetooth people annoy me. the other day jackie and I went to a basketball game, and the girl sitting next to us wore her bluetooth earpiece during the whole game. she wasn't on the phone -- she was talking to the guy sitting next to her the whole time, but she still wore that stupid earpiece. I just felt like ripping it off. I don't know, I guess since I sit in front of a computer and I have a telephone next to me all day at work, I just hate the feeling of being 'wired' all day. if you're with someone else, you should be paying attention to them, not to your cell phone/pda/whatever! and I like randomly walking around and actually looking at the stuff and people around me instead of constantly having headphones on or talking on my cellphone. granted, I usually talk to my mom when I'm walking to and from the subway, but still. . . all that being said, I do sometimes wish I had a bluetooth headset when it's freezing out and my hand's about to fall off because I don't have gloves (I'm from miami, I hate all that gloves/scarves/hat shit) and I want to talk to my mom. . . I don’t make any sense, do I?

ok, moving on the the expensive sunglasses: rupa, I think the glasses look great. isn't spending $400 on sunglasses the same as spending $400 on an ipod that you don’t need, since the one you have is perfectly fine? I've always felt more comfortable spending money on the latest tech gadgets than on labels, but that's just 'cause I'm a dork. but you're not only paying for the chanel logo -- you're paying that much money because you love the way the glasses fit! If you're still having second thoughts on thursday, it would probably be best for your to return them. you could also compromise a little and see if you can find say $200 sunglasses that you like instead, no? I think spending a lot of money on sunglasses is the same as spending a lot of money on a purse; you'll probably get the same amount of use out of both (I use my sunglasses almost every day! and they make me sooo happy).
