Why does this happen? Why do I WANT so much? I have a case of the wants. Like...really really bad. I want everything...and I want it now. I want the best clothes, shoes, jewelry, accessories for my house, furniture, etc. I also want to travel and never miss out on anything with my friends. MAKE IT STOP. I don't want to come across as this awful, shallow person who is extremely materialistic, b/c I'm really not. Obviously, I can't HAVE all that I want and I have never gotten ALL that I want. (and of course, we all have different ideas of this because we were all raised differently with different values, financial situations, etc.) I have plenty of friends who just don't get into "designer" clothes, shoes, etc. like I do. WHY me ? Why do I have to WANT this stuff so much? My heart pitter patters whenever I go to the home pages of Tory and Milly...dresses, bathing suits, bags, shoes...I want it all. Why is MY piperlime cart LOADED (I keep adding mor

I AM SO FREAKING SICK OF HEARING ABOUT CHARLIE SHEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whew. Glad that is out there. I am not one to obsess over celebrities, never have been. I just don't care...they are just people. It infuriates me to no end how Americans have this sick obsession with celebrities and people become "famous" for the MOST ridiculous things, i.e., Jersey Shore, Bachelor, etc. I hate those shows. I know a lot of people love reality tv and a lot of people use it as their "break" from reality, which we all need, but good lord...let's get a grip. Whatever insane things Charlie Sheen is doing, it AIN'T newsworthy, nor stupid Lindsay Lohan for that matter. They wanna ruin their life, let em'! Stop talking about him 24/7, is that what our media has come to? I read a great article on cnn.com yesterday comparing news coverage of Sheen to our fallen soldiers, it's nothing short of heartbreaking. Our TRUE heroes (troops, fireman, police, etc.)

Is OOC. Oops. So...you know how I just blogged about not being interested in clothes right now? Well...that changed. Fast. I got a "give and get" coupon and all of a sudden I am overcome with this overwhelming need to SHOP SHOP SHOP. Crazy huh!?! BUT...I'm on a MAD hunt to find an employee to share with me. A friend of mine worked at the Gap as a second job and she would always pass on her "give and get" codes to me (so I could use it on piperlime!). Well, she isn't working there anymore and I am in desperate WANT for some of this stuff from Piperlime, mainly the shoes. How can you pass those up if you can get 30% off? Hopefully I can find someone...if you know of anyone that works for Gap and can get me the code i would greatly appreciate it:) Just enabling another shopaholic, no worries! *If you don't know, I think the way it works is employeeds' "give and get" coupons can also be u

It's been a while since I've posted...but sometimes I just don't feel like it, point blank. I don't ever want blogging to feel like a chore, so when it does...I just don't do it. I've been really busy at work and just haven't had much time to think about it. I started boot camp yesterday and am really excited about it. Three of my friends and I purchased it via a deal on Living Social, we meet three times a week for four weeks...I really hope it whips my butt into shape. I have high expectations! I am detoxing this week, for real. Wow. My body has been put through a lot in the past few weeks. We've had lots of social outings during the week which has led to many more nights partaking in cocktails than is good for the body. Not to mention last weekend we had fun plans Friday night, two wedding shower Saturday and a joint bachelor/bachelorette party Saturday night! Yowzas. I'm not going to have ONE single sip of alcohol for seven days a
