1. Tomorrow is the company holiday party. We get two drinks! Coworker: "We only get two drinks?"
2. Man, this was a crappy week. My phone is still broken, Sprint wouldn't replace it unless the accountholder (my sister) was there, and I'm not an authorized user anyway, so I can't make any changes. And I still have 3 months left on my contract. And I have an article to write, which requires that I make a few long-distance calls. Grr. Hope email works.
3. Mark is eating French food with his sister right now. Me = REALLY REALLY JEALOUS.
4. Bought some clothes for my niece and Kaitlin. Ok, since when did kid's clothes get so frickin' expensive? I'm paying more for a pair of jeans than I would for my own pants. I'm getting my niece a board game, too, because I do not want to play the Game of Life one more time. Last time we played it for three days straight. I think that was enough. I have no idea what I'm getting the twins.
5. It was a two-magazine week. Budget Living was a mistake that I realized as soon as I got on the train. I was looking for the Vanity Fair, which seems to have disappeared at the bookstore and at the supermarket. Grr. Arthur Frommer (he does travel guides) has a new magazine out called Smart Shopping, which had way better deals than Budget Living did.
6. Also new: Radar Magazine folds, again. You know what? They started out too big; it was bound to implode. I am not as full of love for the magazine as the author of the article is, but I think they had potential.
7. GiantRobot's current issue has an article on a guy who made a documentary about convicted men whose innocence was proved via DNA evidence. Interesting.
8. This weekend I will pay my parents back entirely for the car (which, by the way, remains awesome). Then it's serious saving up time for either a trip to China or a trip to Europe.
9. The power went out at my apartment on Monday, and I wasn't able to get Internet back up until yesterday. Stupid PG&E.
10. I still have not watched the TiVoed episodes of Project Runway Season 2 yet. I am saving it up for some vegging out this weekend. From the commercials, 3 of the guys look like coke addicts. And is that the "Follow your bliss" guy I see? If you have seen it, please don't spoil me for it.
11. Boston Legal is the slashiest television show ever.
