Don’t cry over split jeans…

Thursday, September 11th, 2008 by gwen

Guess who ripped the near-inseam of her jeans on the way to work this morning? Yeah, that’s me. Did I turn my bike around and go home for a decent pair? No, why would I do that? Not that I had one. But I did go buy a nice replacement pair from Urban Outfitters straight after work – good times! And in light of this sudden tragedy, I have decided that I should probably own more than one pair of decent jeans at a time, so I have my eye on a different pair at H&M as well. I can keep them in my file cabinet at work in case I rip into another pair.

Also, don’t cry over snails eating your heirloom tomatoes…

This little guy, and his crazy-enormous-snail friend, got thrown over the tall fence into the neighbor’s yard. Bad snails! No more tomatoes for you!

Sweet Caroline…bah bah bah…

From the Sox vs Devil Rays game last night.

In other news, my hard drive imploded on Friday – everything is gone! My design programs, my design files I’ve been working on for the past two months, all my pictures – gone! I just got my compy back last night, and now it seems to be running very slow – back to the Apple store it is, then back to work.

I’m a carnie!

No, not a circus freak, but….I’ve decided to eat worms.

I bit off all their little wormie heads! I’ve been wanting to try out some “all natural” gummies for awhile now – they’re pretty tasty! The ones I got from the grocer have apple flavor for green, my favorite. And absolutely no high-fructose corn syrup – woot! Still not good for you, just a little less horrible.

What am I up to? Bouncing in my seat, wondering why I don’t have the unicorns on this compy – blame it on the boogie, or the sugar.

Oh, also. A classmate of mine from UF, and talented photo journalist – Danny Ghitis – is covering the RNC from the outside-in with some amazing photos on this blog – http://drunkatdnc.blogspot.com/

I’m loving the gas masks.

And yes, I’m watching – much to my own disdain.
