Happy Thursday! Thank you for ALL of the birthday wishes and comments on Monday’s post. I had a great day!
Work has been crazy again, as I knew it would be! This week has also thrown in a few kinks, hence my absence. I feel I’ll never get done playing catch-up. However, my lovely co-workers are throwing me a Derby-themed birthday lunch today; I’m so excited and grateful!
Reading: “The People Vs OJ Simpson”. I’m halfway through and love it. Learning the behind the scenes dynamics is intriguing. I also picked up “Brooklyn” and am awaiting the arrival of my May Book Challenge and Chat book.
Eating: all the sweets. Sigh. I’ve had cupcakes with rainbow chip frosting (had no idea it was back!) and Derby pie, of course. No doubt there will be plenty of treats today, too! It’s my birthday week; calories don’t count, right?
Watching: Jane the Virgin and The Mindy Project. That’s all I’ve had time to watch, and neither show disappoints! I wasn’t thrilled at first with the direction Mindy was taking (mainly because I am in love with Chris Messina, please marry me), but now I find it refreshing and frank. I especially appreciate how they’re portraying casual sex without making Mindy seem like a trollop. I also watched the last couple of episodes of Gilmore Girls on my birthday. I hated Season 7, but admit I cried like a baby at the last episode. Again. I cannot wait for the reboot! I’m not sure I’ve ever been this excited about something, especially since Melissa McCarthy is back!
Wearing: these shoes. I am in love and have received tons of compliments on them… especially from men, which I found strange?
Loving: the Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit. You guys. It is so good! I almost want to buy another kit because I’ve heard it’s limited edition.
Drinking: all the water. I’ve imbibed too much lately, plus, with all the sweets, I need a break from sugary wine. Water until the weekend.
Listening: during the day, I’m still loving the “You Must Remember This” and “Bitch Sesh” podcasts. I can’t get enough!
Needing… to work on my HTML/CSS classes. I am so behind!
Daydreaming: I’m working on a side project with a dear blogger friend that I’m really nervous and excited about. I can’t wait to share more!
What’s new with you? What are you reading/drinking/loving/excited about?
