the ramblings of a displaced Philly girl

don't worry, I'll remember you all when I'm rich :)


So I just bought my very first lottery ticket ever. I mean, I've played the little scratch off things once or twice, but I just bought my first mega millions ticket, just because I couldn't resist the 126 million dollar jackpot advertisements. And hey, it's 2 bucks. And yes, don't worry if I did ever win that much money, all of you would get very nice Christmas presents :) Oooooh the ways to spend that money... I'd probably pay off my car and Steph's car, buy my parents cars, pay cash for a house, donate some to charity (I know that's the cliché answer but I really would), and then maybe buy a house in Italy and do some world traveling. But I'd still work I think. At this point in my life, I'd be bored out of my mind if I didn't. Who knows. Post and tell me what YOU would do with 126 million!

It was dark tonight at 5 o'clock. It felt like it was about 9. This is one of the many reasons I dislike winter. booooo.

I am about to start rearranging my apartment. Those of you who know me know I get bored REALLY easily and I need my scenery to change every now and then or I'll go crazy. Well, I decided my bedroom is way too cramped, and it's mostly because of my desk, so I'm going to start by switching my desk and my papasan, putting my desk in the living room. I don't really like the idea of having it there either, but it might be the lesser of two evils. I wish I had a second bedroom so I could have a little office/utility-ish room. I guess I'll save that for when I win the lottery :) I think once I start changing, though, it's gonna become a major project, so we'll see. If you have any decorating tips or ideas, shoot em to me.

I also just got back from the mall. All I bought was a way cute date shirt, but it was still fun. You'd all be proud of me-- it's been months since I major splurged on new clothes (I used to like every month!) Part of this I think is because car payments suck, but I also hate clothes shopping when nothing fits right. I've already lost about 12 pounds, though, so here's to fun clothes shopping when I drop some more. Now my team needs to stop bringing in homemade cheesecake... hehehe. we were all sitting around talking yesterday-- we figured out that most people in our spine have gained 30-40 pounds since they started with the company. Isn't that NUTS? That is NOT healthy. The food days need to stop...

Just a reminder, I have a new home phone #. I'll give it to you if you ask, I'm just not posting it. Bad experience with the last one. I'll explain that later :) I have also been meaning to switch to Cox so everything else is cheaper, so I did that too. We'll see how it works out. I already got a call this morning on my cell saying my home phone wasn't working so I checked it out. The reason? The guy plugged the box thingy into the outlet that's controlled by my light switch! lol.

Not very many props this weekend since I didn't do much other than work, work out, get my phone installed, and shop. And Desperate Housewives isn't on tonight! :(
A special congrats, though, to Steph, who bought her wedding dress this weekend! I guess the next step is finding my maid of honor dress. so weird. Also a special congrats to Trina, who finally posted! yay Trina! hehehehehehehe (you deserve that! :Þ)

Hope everyone had a fun weekend. I'm off to move heavy furniture. Later! :)

Why did you switch to Cox? To quote you speaking loudly going down the stairs at work "man I hate Cox!"

Now, any random person walking by not knowing what we were talking about would definitely misunderstand what you meant by that statement.

126 million bucks...i'd quit my job and move to NYC. I'd audition for parts- no i'd buy my own show. and I'd star in it! muuuhahahaha. And I'd shop like mad. If anybody could blow 126 million it would be me. And of course I'd totally give some to charity!
