{Dear Diary} Day 18, 19, 20, and 21 of Wishlist

This weekend was nothing short of amazing. It wasn’t extravagant or over the top or anything like that but it was perfect in its own unexpected way.

It began:

 slightly happier than before when i hear the word “exactly”, drink a glass of water—-popcorn button…lol, see cake wrapped in foil ergo ramen noodles or when i see a rose=-=-=——located halfway around the world. Only you would understand!!!!!

<Eventually I’ll find the words to describe it but I’m kind of still… well, afterglow>

Friday wasn’t such a big day of wishlist satisfaction but it wasn’t terrible so I appreciate it. Although my weekend began dull with a Friday closing shift and a day long shit on Saturday, at 4:26 the gifts just kept on giving.

Dinner, bowling, movies, games, words with friends marathon…

Perfection.

It was over 55 hour later, but it hasn’t ended…

55 hours and 55 minutes of significant time.
uninterrupted from life and all reality, stuck in our own twilight zone as you put it. Must return back to the real world, for now at least:)


Happy Birthday me!

{Dear Diary} Day 22 of Wishlist

In some ways I spent the day preparing for the rest of my journey…

Happy Birthday me!


{Dear Diary} Obama, Obama

I love our President!
Can this be my ringtone?

Amateur Night of the Day: President Obama sings the sultry opening line from Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together” during a campaign event tonight at the Apollo Theatre. 

Green, who was in attendance at the historic event (the first visit to the legendary Harlem landmark by a sitting president), has yet to share his thoughts on Obama’s loving homage.

{Dear Diary} Happy International Festish Day

Let your freak flag fly high!

International Fetsih Day is the third Friday of January. It is a day to dispell myths about the extremist nature of fetishes and embrace the different, unusual and unexplored.

I’m rockin’ my purple, are you?

{Dear Diary} Day 17 of Wishlist

…the night is young…

Drum roll please…

They’re mine! I bought them for me Gerbunstag! This is more than a singular win for me. Aside from purchasing an amazing pair of shoes, I have purchased an item off of my wishlist… by the end of June I plan to have purchased at least 5 items from my ever evolving and growing wishlist. It is a exercise in restraint and saving… although it may not seem like it.

I am very proud of myself as well as excited…

The deets: Cassandra Platform Wedge in Wine

Awesome wine faux suede platform wedges featuring a lace-up front and a metallic gunmetal heel insert. Seam detailing at front, cutout heel. Fully lined interior. Perfect paired with a chunky knit and skinnies!

*Shoe Height: 9.25” 
*Heel Height: 6.5”
*Platform Height: 1.5”

Happy Birthday me!

{Dear Diary} Day 16 of Wishlist

Yesterday I blacked out my blogs in support of anti-SOPA/PIPA legislation.

So… back on track. Since I banned my blog, I couldn’t (or didn’t even try to) update.

I was very excited when I got my blue lipstick yesterday until I put it on… it goes on purply… like normal lipstick color. Welp, I got black and lavender too… I guess I’m still on the search for a quality blue!

I think I’ll wait until The Lip Bar opens up…

 

^^ That’s the kind of blue I want! (That’s not me by the way…)^^

The Lip Bar is a lipstick company created by a native Detroiter! Gosta show some love!

Her website, tumblr, facebook, and twitter

Addendum: Oh yeah, I painted my nails. They glow in the dark.

{Dear Diary} Day 15 of Wishlist

Today kind of embodied the what I love about romantic comedies. You know those stories where things seem to happen ironically but in the end everything falls into place and you’re left with a warm fuzzy feeling… Yeah, that was day 15.

It began like any other rainy day, before work I watched a little TV curled up on the couch trying to avoid the inevitable feat of getting ready for work as long as possible. Finally time came and I got up and started to get ready for work.

I did my little bathroom/shower show, went back and forth ten jillion times about what to wear, got a quick bite and the grabbed my umbrella as I bounced out of the door to continue with my journey to work. I wasn’t really sure if I needed my umbrella because it rained last night, but I brought it anyway — better safe than sorry. Not my usual motto, but I went with it today.

Sweet golden baby Jesus was looking out for me today. After I had been at my bus stop for about 30 minutes it started to sprinkle. No big deal but I put my umbrella up so that the rain wouldn’t get on my face because the last thing I want 8 days before my birthday is to get sick. After getting a little bit heavier the rain stopped for minute, then it picked up again.

While being sprinkled with God’s piss (too much?) rain I had the strangest epiphany. Usually I feel like my mood is direct connected to the weather: on sunny days I’m happy and on rainy days I’m a bitch, but today was different. I was happy… Giddy even. So as I’m twirling my umbrella and smiling like the lost cast member of Signing in the Rain, I realized I had been waiting for my bus for about 45 minutes. Then my phone rings:

“How are you on the fine sunny day?” 

Are you kidding me? I had to laugh because I knew my friend was being sarcastic and didn’t know I was actually standing in the rain. It seemed like RIGHT when he said that the rain got harder and as we joked the rain began to come down in buckets. My pants got about 2lbs. heavier and 5 shades darker.

Luckily, he offered to take me to work! (Look at that perfect timing!)

As he made his way to my side of town, I walked the 4 blocks back to my house and my clothes got darker and more wet and even more heavy. By the time I got back to my house I was soaked from the waist down, so when I walked in the house I immediately try to figure out what the hell I’m about to change into as I think to myself, “like getting ready the first time wasn’t difficult enough.”

As usual we laugh and joke and clown all the way to my job.

Even though it was the afternoon, it was a great start to my day and I truly, truly, truly, definitely, exactly appreciate it!

Of course I called my mom (who is basically in loooooove with my friend anyway) and told her all about it and she’s like: “You got a good one.”

And I do.

Happy Birthday me.

{Dear Diary} Day 14 of Wishlist

I made dinner.

Watched a movie.

Chilled out…

…as my long weekend came to an end.

Nothing over the top but enjoyable nonetheless.

Happy Birthday me.

{Dear Diary} Day 12 & 13 of Wishlist

My day really didn’t start until 4:42 Saturday afternoon when my friend picked me up for a birthday party. I enjoyed food, laughter, camaraderie and secretly sang happy birthday to myself (ha ha ha, just kidding — kinda’).

Yesterday I posted about Elle Varner and downloaded her album sampler, Perfectly Imperfect. Good music is always a great gift. However, this morning I woke up to a beautiful rose, just in case I didn’t get anything yesterday.

Insert girly shriek here (^__^)!

{Dear Diary} Elle Varner

I was going to post the video to “Only Wanna Give It To You” then I heard “Refill” so I’m going to just post a bunch of Elle Varner because she’s giving me life right now.

Or you good just go on Youtube and look her up like I did

Or you could download “Perfectly Imperfect” her Album Sampler (like I did) and look out for the album set to release some time this year
