looking ahead

Project Runway disappointed me again this season. My favorite (Nick) was shut out and will not get to present at Fashion Week. Last year my favorite (Austin) was equally deprived when they gave what should have been his slot to the horrible Wendy Pepper. And judging by the Getty Images photos, nobody's collection this season is that great. Hopefully Nick will have the last laugh!

A new nail salon near my house finally opened. I checked it out this morning and walked away with a much needed manicure and pedicure. It will be a good backup for when I don't have time to drive (the extra mile or so LoL) to my first choice "quickie" nail salon. My favorite place for treating myself to a super luxurious ($$$$) pedicure just closed so I need to find a backup for that next. I can't believe I missed the fact it was closing, I must drive by it at least 3 times a week...I guess I have been out of it lately. Too bad because apparently they had a big going out of business sale and I could have stocked up on goodies. Oh well!

Once again, I am inching closer to promotion. I'm trying to keep my head down and work as hard as I can to show I deserve it. This one will be the biggie with a huge salary increase so I can't wait but I'm attempting to be patient and mellow and stay busy so time passes quickly. Probably why I was oblivious to what is going on in the world!

I need to resume my good habit of going to the gym 3 times a week. Lately the weather has been very cold, so in the morning I would rather snuggle in my warm bed than venture outside and freeze. I know I'll regret that attitude when bikini weather is in full swing, though! Discovering that bakery didn't help, it turned out to be the proverbial Pandora's box. My fiance and I have picked up desserts twice a week since our first visit. I rationalize I'm helping to support a fledgling business, and we only live once. As long as I balance it out with regular workouts and an otherwise balanced diet I don't see the harm.

Continuing with the brain cobweb shake-off, I would like suggestions for new books. My reading tastes are very eclectic. I just finished Stephen King's "Cell" which has a totally fucked up yet remotely plausible plot! The nightstand is piled with library books but I read super quickly. If you're reading and can recommend a favorite author or title please comment. Thanks :)
