dove 7-day challenge

ok, so you know those stupid dove commercials..."turn your armpits into underarms within 7 days," or something along those lines. well, they weren't lying. i took the dove challenge and my armpits are now underarms! they are much softer and feel less irritated when i shave but my question to dove is, who in this world could possibly care about the smoothness of my armpits?

the anti-climax

the last day at work was rather anti-climactic. couldn't they have held a parade in my honor as i walked through the doors one last time?! all of my belongings fit in a box and people were quite surprised. my question is, what does everybody else keep at work that would require more than one box? i guess i try to keep that part of my life simple since my personal life is rather complicated. i can keep virtually nothing at work because i have my car with me and that has anything you could possibly need...toilet paper, underware, socks, sportswater, you name it, i've got it! and yes, it is embarrassing when i put my groceries away in the trunk when strangers walk by. must add empty trunk to the list of to do's before i start the new job.

i had to be really patient with the new girl today. she was just so damn eager to learn everything about taking over my job but she can't possibly expect 5 years worth of knowledge to spew out of me in 2 days time, especially when i'm grumpy and have home rennovations on my mind. her chipperness will soon wear off and then she'll know why i seemed like such a bitch. i'm so glad i'm not a teacher because i would've totally been fired for being worl'd worst teacher.

is it midnight yet?! i'm waiting to check-in on southwest and i have to wait until 12:01 am!

t.c.b.

taking care of business has been quite a task especially since my hip and back have decided to freak out! it hurts to walk thanks to the old sciatica (damn i sound old!) but i'm hoping my 2-hour walk helps losen the muscle and nerve.

anyways, enough complaints...

my brows looks good but i had to do a little re-shaping of my own. i feel like the plucker must've goten tired at the last minute so she gave up. like trying to wrap up a good movie in the lat 5 minutes. needless to say i had to get some strays. since the outter edges of my brows have some bald spots, i thought it'd be a good idea to fill them in and the easiest thing to find was brown eyeliner. let me just say that i won't be doing that again any time soon, and i wouldn't recommend trying it. believe me, it is not a quick fix for filling in the gaps. it just makes you look really pissed off! so if for some reason you're feeling like a real pushover or too happy, fill-in your brows with dark eyeliner and you'll achieve that count dracula look!

last day of work

today is my last day of work at my current job and i couldn't be more relieved since the other job is totally different.  i wish i could say it was my last day of work for a lifetime but no such luck with winning the lotto just yet.  i have next week off which should give me enough time to paint the ceiling and some accent walls in the new place and help mom move her stuff, and then move my own.  ugh.  so much work to do outside of paid work. 

ralph's parents are in town tonight (i think) so i need to think of a way to:

spend time with dog and give her a long walk

go to brow appt.

nails

shave legs and nair other parts

pack

find flight itin.

find a midday walker for dog on sunday

...all within hours.  perhaps there is a way i can leave early today?!

calgon, take me away!

at least i had a chance to choose my linoleum last night so that's one thing off my list.  now to find some halfway decent work clothes for next tuesday and i'm all set.  i stopped by loehman's after work yesterday and their stuff sucked.  what's up with all the discount places sucking lately?  i guess i'm going to spend more and go to nordstrom and j. crew to stock up on some basics.  wait a second, i've totally forgotten roo's bloomingdale's discount.  and maybe shannon can give me a sweet hook up at nordy's.

i'm bored now.  what do you do on the last day of work?  i threw all my files away which was totally exhilirating!  now if i could only throw things away at home like that!

where's shannon?  i want to hear all about her reunion with her ex-boyfriend who she plans to marry.  wake up!  where are you?

well, must go paint my nails now.

more later.
