Re: Thursday Randoms

  • I broke YET another cell phone.  I am not meant to have nice things.  

    I went for my walk last night (I usually do between 5-6 miles.  I always bring my phone and Ipod with me on my walks.  I like to use the runtastic app on my phone.  So anyway, around mile 3 the storm clouds were seriously rolling in and then the lightning started and it got SUPER dark and then when I was about 3/4 of a mile from home the sky just opened up and it rained SO hard.  I was drenched in a second.  I tried stuffing my phone and my ipod in my running bra but with the amount of rain coming down, it was useless.  It was like I jumped into a pool.  

    Now my stoopid iphone is stuck in the runtastic app and the bottom button on the phone doesn't work anymore so I can't navigate in and out of anything.  SUCKAGE!  Now I have to go to the stoopid phone store at lunch and get screwed by the phone company.  I expect at least a nice dinner before getting screwed.  GRRRR.

  • Being unable to text is the WORST feeling in the entire world.  (The only thing worse would be losing my legs and not being able to shoe shop).

  • We had our weekly wine night outside on Tuesday since it was so hot. My legs became an early Thanksgiving for mosquitoes. I'm so freaking itchy and welt-y. I didn't sleep at all last night because they were so bad. I hate itching. 

    I put Preparation H on them this morning, and it is sweet relief! I'm not the only one that uses Prep-H all the time, but never as intended, am I? That stuff is magic.

    I made the colossal mistake of buying an air cast ankle boot online instead of going through my doctor's office (long story short I have a tall one but it's too hot for the tall so I wanted a short one). Well, it's a painful piece of crap and puts me terribly off balance because it's too tall. I ended up going back to the doctor's office after all so now not only am I out the $25 for the boot but an additional $150 since I went through the doc's office. Grrr.

    Update: Bless Amazon's return policy. That sucker is going back.

  • I bought this faux wrap dress at Banana yesterday for $20 -- 60% off sale price!!! -- and holy crap I'm the biggest idiot ever.  After 20 minutes of trying to put it on correctly I wore something else to work today.
    Beware dresses that are on sale for $20 when they are originally $110.  THERE'S A REASON FOR THAT.
