Love and Loathe
Love:Breakfast at Tiffany's I've watched it half a dozen times in the last week, have fallen asleep to it, and have had dreams related to jewelry, fashion, or men with slicked hair three times. I kind of want to be Holly Golightly - even if it does mean being a high-class hooker.
Not eating chips They're a constant on my grocery shopping list and I usually eat the hell out of them, but lately, no interest. I've had the same three half-empty bags sitting in my kitchen for two weeks and I think the last time I ate any was on Wednesday. This is a record for me, people.
My hair I am a first-timer with this hair color thing, and I am quite pleased with the results. I'm already thinking of going more intense next time. (Next time!)
Rubber stamps I made the mistake of going into Hobby Lobby yesterday and came out with two new stamps and two new ink pads. I also bought a large-size Moleskine with plain pages and have started sticking in things I like and stamping the pages. I see a temporary obsession forming - one that leads to silver-and-blue stained fingers.
Little bits of organization I spent about an hour today hanging clothes in my closet (the hall closet; I get dressed there anyhow) and sorting shits and intimates into drawers. I put all of my handbags in a little bin on the shelf in the closet, sorted my jewelry into appropriate places...and then my energy fizzled before I managed to do anything with my shoes. Oh well.
The end of Daylight Savings I hate Daylight Savings and I always have. Getting my hour back, however, and waking up when my body thought it was 10:30 - that's fabulous.
Voting I am so excited to go vote on Tuesday. I'm ignoring the niggling fear of what could happen and choose to be hopeful about what may come.
Eyelashes I love mine, and I decided to revisit Benefit's BADgal last mascara. It was given to me as a gift a few years ago, and I didn't love it - it's certainly not for everyday wear since I find it smudges a bit - but it does give me lovely lashes. Right now it's the only makeup I'm wearing.
Lazy Sundays
Loathe:
Feeling guilty about not doing housework
Seeing estranged family members while out shopping Just hearing the voice made me shudder.
Unpredictable weather It's freezing when I get up, uncomfortably warm when I leave work. I keep flipping back and forth between the heater and the air conditioner and I am not a fan of carrying a coat around or shivering as I drive to work.
Working at 7:30 every day this week and doing the same thing all the time I'm going to try to stay positive.
Worrying about other people This obsessing and dissecting and stressing and feeling personally responsible shit is just not okay.
Missing the UPS guy My new eyeshadow was scheduled to come on Friday. I was home until 3:15 - and he came at 4. The note he left says that he's coming back after 5 tomorrow, which is okay since I should be home, but frustrates me. If I wasn't home before 5 on Friday, what makes you think, logically, that I will be on Monday? Delivery companies are ridiculous.
What are you loving and loathing lately?

Oooh, you know what I'm loving right now? And it relates to one of your loves. Fake eyelashes. :D I bought the little individual ones and just put a few near the end of my lash line. It's not over-the-top but it just makes them look a little fuller and longer. I don't even have to wear eye make-up when I use them. And they're super easy to put on when you get used to them. :) They're fun.
The weather is pissing me off right now too. It's still HOT here. I just know that one of these days I'm going to wake up and BAM it'll have changed overnight. Hot to freezing. Stupid Arizona weather...*grumbles*
Loves:
The French manicure I gave myself yesterday while watching girly movies
Biting into apples (this one doesn't get old)
Being able to see my uncle this week
Three weeks in a row of shortened work weeks
Red leaves
Smiling when I hear the phone ring after I've stayed up for that purpose alone
Avoiding slut-tastic wear this Hooker-ween
Loathe:
Distance
Work for dragging their feet
Not being able to get people the presents I want to get them
Slipping up and giving away an outlet
