REVIEW...

This week was cool.

1. I finished class on Monday. Sadly, my final grade was not up to par, according to my standards, at least. I am an over achiever, therefore a B+ is not acceptable. I sulked about it for a few, Im pretty much over it now.

2. Work was exciting. My job has been extended! (Kind of old news, but I havent shared that on here.)

3. Went to a RAY BAN party with friends and saw a ton of rad peeps. Including but not limited to Juliette Lewis ( THE OTHER SISTER was a great movie and she was amazinggg in it, Z made sure to tell her) THE STROKES, Chloe Sevigny, IGGY POP (what a stage presence! Yes, he was shirtless, which can be a bit disturbing at 60+ years old with the loose skin issue and all, but he was phenomenal!!) , The VIRGINS and a few more. Best part was, we got totally hooked up with swag. I ended up with a bad ass pair of red shades. I also got trampled on in a mosh pit, which is always eventful.

4. _______________________________________________________________________ .

5. I really should fix my wind shield wipers. Waking up to rain has become an exhausting unnecessary challenge. Maybe someone wants to do this dreaded errand for me? Its already paid for in full. Ill make you an amazing cd in exchange. Ill even throw in a batch of cookies.

In other news I just had to plunk down $230 for a new thermostat for my dryer. The whole unit costs 600! After bitterly handing over my credit card to the the repair man, he advised me not to use the unit until I have the exhaust pipe cleaned out. If I dont do this, the newly installed thermostat will blow out almost immediately. " Umm.. Can you do that?" I asked. He handed me a business card for a duct cleaner and wished me a good day-- "Hes working today, you can call him" he retorted back with not a shard of empathy. Suddenly I felt like I was had. Something tells me that buying a new dryer will be an addition to my upcoming "to do" list. A part of me feels like I could probably do it myself. I love fixing stuff and putting stuff together. However, this pipe looks a tad scary. Defeat. I already put in the call to my air man. I love having things repaired and then being told that I cant actually USE the fixed device.

Im not feeling the J Brand cargo skinnies. Sorry. Im not sure that Ill ever embrace cargos again.

I am feeling this weather!!!
