sunday morning update
Feb. 8th, 2004 07:54 amnot much new to report over the last few days.
still have the chest pains, although not as bad. the b.f. has been sick with a major cold, so the two of us basically spent most of yesterday unshowered, eating chinese food (chicken and broccoli), complaining about feeling like crap, and watching episode after episode of reality shows on TLC (makeover stuff, wedding stuff, etc.) at one point the ultra-cool neighbors from across the hall came over and knocked on the door... they'd asked us to watch their plants over the holidays, and though we tried, they both died long slow deaths and we had to throw their dried carcasses in the trash (the plants, not the neighbors)... so here's this gorgeous couple, both of them are filmmakers, and they've come from a month and a half at their apartment in berlin... and john and i answer the door in jammies, unshowered, apartment reeking of chinese food, and hand back the dishes that once held the plants we killed. i wanted to have a sign on my head that said "LOSER". lol
last night i rallied myself and went to the mall. i needed to get out of the house, and wanted to look for a khaki-colored skirt for a business trip next week. didn't find a skirt, although i tried on probably 25 of them... but it was fun to be there for a few hours. did lots of window shopping, grabbed a small dish of rum raisin ice cream and read a book in the food court, spent a huge amount of time in sephora painting my face with every conceivable color of eyeshadow (and ended up buying an awesome perfume, "so pretty" by cartier). 3 people stopped me and asked where i got my purse, a BCBG bargain i found last week (baby blue fake croc with camel leather straps). very cool to know i had such a stylin' accessory! it was a good night.
i have a ton of work to do today, but don't want to do it. ack! rescue me!!!
