Christy + Arcadia = Lazy

Really really really lazy. Wow. Friday I drove from SF to Arcadia... it wasn't a shabby drive. What did suck was that the elevator in my apt was broken. Which made loading up my car a horrific experience. I made maybe 5 trips up and down the stairs with lots n lots of CRAP. I left SF around 11:30 am and made it home around 6:30 pm. It took longer than usual but that was probably due to the traffic in Oakland, my three stops (lunch, gas, starbucks), and the traffic in Pasadena. But overall it wasn't too terrible. Friday night was pretty uneventful, dinner, TV, sleep.

Saturday I went to the Jeans Warehouse Sale with Al and Susie at the Convention Center. I ended up getting THREE pairs of jeans. DAMMIT. Why did I do that! ARGH. But the jeans are pretty damn cute. I got a pair of Hudson, True Religion, and Antik jeans altogether for less than $300! After I had lunch with Susie at the thai place up the street from my house and then I ended up taking a nap for a few hours (since I woke up at 7 am to go to the jeans sale). I hung out at home with my family for a bit and then went out to Cerritos for my dad's work holiday dinner thingy. Dinner was yummy (crab cakes, salad, filet mignon, and CREME BRULEE) and my dad's coworkers are all semi-old and friendly. I got home from dinner around 11 pm and after just hung out with Tracee at home. Man I'm boring.

Today I accompanied Tracee to Rudy's Barbershop in Silverlake and then to Ulta in Pasadena. I got this awesome lotion warmer thing! Now I can feel like I'm in a spa... uh at home. Yeah, okay I know it was a pretty lame purchase, but STILL. Pretty awesome. I've pretty much been doing nothing for the last three days. I had CPK for dinner (take out at home... just how I do in SF) and now I'm watching Kenny VS Spenny on Comedy Central. If you haven't seen this show yet, well you're lame. I'm just kidding. It's a pretty funny (and gross) show.

I feel weird about moving home... I really want to save money and get my life on the right track. I don't know, I just feel conflicted about moving. I feel like more people want me to stay in SF than people want me to move back to Arcadia. Bleh. Right now I'm more concerned with moving I guess. It's possible I'll go to school up in the bay area and leave Arcadia again anyway. We shall see... I think I'm just majorly PMS'ing and I need a hug. Lame! Okay, time to do like eight loads of laundry. Bleeeh.

Working on Sunday is not fun

Duh. But at least I can work from home and watch quality television while working. Right now I'm watching Maximum Exposure... the guy show that highlights amateur footage of really random things (fires, explosions, car chases). I watched Sabrina The Teenage Witch and also Miami Ink. Great TV. So this morning I woke up around 9 am, left the house around 9:30 am, got Coffee Bean (mmmmm vanilla latte), and hit the Warehouse Jean Sale at Fort Mason. At first I thought the line would go pretty fast, considering I got there at 10 am. The line wasn't SUPER long, but it did take about an hour to get inside. Luckily I brought my iPod (since I was by myself) and watched a few tv shows on my iPod. When I got inside, the sale was pretty small (as I expected) but I did find two pairs of jeans and one cute shirt! I got one pair of Diesel jeans (with a cute flower design on the pockets), a pair of Earnest Sewn jeans (really really soft!), and a cute black shirt from To The Max (BCBG's cheaper line). Very naice!

After I paid for my stuff, I went to Chinatown to get my new jeans hemmed ASAP. I wanted to make sure that I got my jeans ready to go before I head to LA/Europe. And thankfully, my jeans alteration lady was pretty free and was able to sew BOTH pairs in a few hours. I dropped my jeans off at 12 and picked them up at 3:30... for only $6 each pair, original hem. That lady is the shiz. Since 1 pm, I've been working from home. It kind of sucks because I don't have a desk to sit at and work. So I'm sitting on the couch. Which doesn't create the best work environment. Wow. I just watched a guy get shot on Maximum Exposure. Anyway, back to TV. I mean, work.

A whole entry dedicated to shopping...
