happy st. p's day!

yay!  today is the day of wearing green and pinching those who aren't!  well, i guess if i pinched one of my co-workers i'd be presented with a harrassment notice of some sort so i'll pass on that today and remember my elementary school days where that sort of thing was acceptable.  maybe schools are too pc nowadays to allow such shinanagans!  tonight we're going to paint the town green at some local irish or english pub- yet to be determined.

amanda and i never went hiking yesterday as planned (this almost always happens when the equation is me+amanda~exercise).  we were too tired from our heavy lunch so we decided to get exercise in another way...we walked dog and then had dinner and went shopping.  shopping provides lots of exercise because you have to walk a lot to find the right things worth trying on, carry heavy clothes, and try on clothes which is like a lot of stretching.  i can talk almost anything into being exercise.  hiking would've been a lot cheaper for sure.  we went to old navy and they had a bunch of really nice stuff.  i'm sure it'll be demolished by the end of the year (their quality isn't the best) but at least it'll provide some stylish clothes for me to wear at a quarter of the price.  then we went to nordy's rack which was dangerous!  they have so many nice clothes for way cheap!  i bought a pair of polka dot dress slacks (nothing tacky, they're black with very, very, very small khaki dots) for $50 and they were originally $210.  what a bargain!

on the way into work i realized that the dream i had two nights ago about having a baby that turned out to be a pug made sense.  really....watch.  shannon, my neighbor has a pug (dog's boyfriend) and one of her good friends was having a baby yesterday (and i didn't know thatuntil last evening).  so maybe, i felt the "baby" energy and predicted it's birth (well, this is not a true prediction since they knew about it but i didn't so it was a prediction for me).  the baby in my dream was a pug because it was linking the event to shannon- since it's shannon's friend.  yeah?  this works.  weird dream and this is the only way i'm able to interpret it without seeming to weird.

anyways, we're having lunch at neiman marcus cafe, again (better make a reservation in case they are booked full due to a special menu).  i think it's our new #1, i'm just bummed that we never went there when lindsay was here.  speaking of lindsay, it's almost her birthday as well as all the other aries i know (debbie, shannon, dog- did i miss anybody?  no aries guys?)- what does l want for her bday?  my life is full of them (aries), including dog.  i want to have a party for dog but she only has 1 friend and a half (the cat who glares at her when she visits dolce).

my rambling will end here for the day unless something incredible eventful happens, which i'm fairly certain is not in my cards today.

let me leave you with an irish blessing:

may there always be work for your hands to do;

may your purse always hold a coin or two;

may the sun always shine on your windowpane;

may a rainbow be certain to follow each rain;

may the hand of a friend always be near you; and

may god fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
