This girl is AMAZING. She was the winner of X Factor in the UK... and if Beyonce and Mariah Carey somehow had a child, this girl woud be it. Haha. With green eyes? Hm.
Anywhoo... I like her voice. Too bad I can't buy her song because it's only on UK iTunes. Boo!

Sick
Bleh! I am sick. Not terribly sick, just feeling overall crappy. I have a bit of congestion and fatigue. Damn Michelle for getting me and Melissa sick! But the nice thing is, I get to stay home and rest :) Yay for WFH (working from home)! Sweet.
I just made myself some pancakes and now I'm watching the movie The Wizard. If you guys haven't seen this... then you really should. It's about these two kids and they run away from home to enter this video game contest. It's freaking awesome. It came out in like 1989 and it has Fred Savage, Christian Slater, and this one girl from Troop Beverly Hills. So funny. I just read about the Troop Beverly Hills chick... Jenny Lewis? I guess she's the singer of Rilo Kiley. Hm. Anyway, I'm babbling.
This week has been pretty interesting so far I guess? Monday I just had work and then got my eyebrows waxed. Tuesday was a more exciting day! Yay. Tuesday morning, I picked up Melissa, Emily, and Ty to go to Sonoma! Before we left, we made a stop at BevMo and decided to get LOTS of alcohol and snacks for the trip. We got to Sonoma around 12 pm, took a look at the house we were going to stay at (SO NICE, Emily has pics and I'll post em as soon as she uploads them) and then had lunch at a little restaurant in downtown Sonoma. The rest of the group arrived around 2 pm and then the girls went to get massages at the Sonoma Day Spa. My massage therapist was kind of crazy, but nice I guess. Worst massage I've ever had... but it wasn't THAT terrible.
After the massages, we went back to the house to hang out. We ordered food from another restaurant in town and then Emily, Ty, and I went to get breakfast food and pick up everyone's dinner. After dinner we all hung out, drank, and played Charades. Best game ever! Anyway, after we told ghost stories and we all finally went to be around 1 am.
On Wednesday, we woke up early (7:30) then packed up to leave the house at 8:30 am. We went to ANOTHER house (there was a scheduling error that the owner of the first house made, so we had to go to another house down the road for our meeting). We did work stuff for a bit, then finally left Sonoma around 10:30 am to go back to work. At work we did nothing (of course) except eat and hang out at the Halloween party (which was lame). Emily and I left around 3:30 pm and got home at like 4:30! It was awesome. I felt crappy so I took a nap from like 5-8 pm and then got Panda Express with Ellen. She went out to the Viceland party (which I was thinking of going to, but decided on staying in to sleep) whilst I stayed home feeling sick. Bleh. I went to bed at like 11 pm and woke up at like 9 am. NICE. :)

Sharry Potter
Happy Early Halloween! Wee. So my weekend was pretty fun. On Friday night, I went to the SF Mall with Emily and Melissa to look for parts of my slutty Harry Potter outfit. I found a cute corset top with a bra sewn into it! Vary naice. After we went shopping, Melissa and I ate at Out the Door in the mall foodcourt. Out the Door is just a slightly (but not much) cheaper and more casual Slanted Door. But irregardless, it was still QUITE delicious. We got the fried veggie spring rolls, glass noodles with dungeness crab, and glazed shrimp with onions. YUM. So good. After dinner we walked around Border's (I got two books and an iPod cover) and then watched SuperBad! I can't believe the movie is still out. I watched it on the day it opened and kind of forgot what happened... also I had a free movie ticket so what the hell. :)Saturday, I woke up and went to the mall to get the finishing touches of my costume. But first I had to return a skirt I had bought off J.Crew (I bought two different sizes of the same skirt because I wasn't sure which one would fit) and eat lunch at SF Soup Company (yum chicken tortilla!). Then I found a cheap black short skirt from Guess ($9.90!) and classic stockings. Delightful! After I went home, took a nap, watched TV, and finally got ready around 6:30 pm. Melissa showed up at my place around 7:15-ish and we headed over to Emily's at 8 pm. We had pre-party drinks (okay, I won't lie... I had a glass of Pom juice and Emily and Melissa had pom/vodka) then we walked down to Velvet Cantina for dinner. Yum! I got steak tacos and rice. I also drank half of a margarita! Wooo. After dinner we took a cab to Delirium at 16th/Valencia and partied for awhile. It was hot in the back room and they played random 80s and 90s songs, but it was really fun to just dance and hang out. Around 1 am Melissa, Kathy, and I left the club and walked to Emily's house where I parked my car. The walk was QUITE long (especially since I was wearing very high heels) and there were two big hills. But overall, the walk wasn't too terrible.
Sunday... wow. Sunday was the laziest Sunday I've had in awhile. I woke up around 12:30 pm with a bad ass headache (is that what a hangover feels like? damn you dehydrated body!) and ate ramen for lunch with Ellen and Phill. Then I read my new book, The Golden Compass (which is really interesting!), and took a VERY long nap from like 4:30 - 8 pm. Yikes. I felt really cracked out. After a satisfyingly fattening McD's dinner, I just read and watched tv.
Lovely lazy Sunday.

No conversion
Which is fine! I don't actually mind that I'm not getting converted as a permanent employee. I'm excited where I'm going to end up next :) Anyway... updates. Hm.
So! Sunday I met up with Melissa in Hayes Valley for brunch. We had meant to eat at Fritz, but unfortunately it's closed for renovation. Suck. So instead we had a deeelicious brunch at Absinthe. I got the croque madame (ham and cheese sandwich with an egg on top) and lemonade while Melissa got the banana blueberry pancakes with a mimosa. YUM. It was good. After brunch, we randomly wandered around Hayes and didn't buy anything. Wow! After I dropped Melissa off at home, I went to the apt to watch TV and take a nap. I woke up around 3:30 and met up with Mike for coffee. We went to this cute little area near West Portal (I think) and hung out at this cute coffee shop. We chatted for awhile... mostly about Nordstrom gossip stuff and then I went home to lounge around. Can't beat lazy sundays. I think brunch is my new favorite thing. It's so FUN... especially when it's beautiful and sunny outside. Yay!
Mmmm... this week has been pretty uneventful except for the non-conversion stuff. Tomorrow night I might go to a party with Melissa and Saturday is Emily's birthday! YAY! I got my costume stuff last night... so sweet. Cape, tiny glasses that are way too small for my face, crappy plastic wand, and child-sized tie. YES! Haha... I'll be slutty sHarry Potter. SWEET.
Okay, that is all for now. :)
