Still a little out of it this morning, but I feel pretty good. I didn’t sleep well last night, so the old mental motor’s taking a while to warm up.
Yup, every morning. It’s an easy way to start the day with a minor sense of accomplishment.
No! I need to start soon, though.
I heart all kinds, but persimmons are really floating my boat right now, yum!
It’s a Clinique Black Tie Violets day for me.
We have very different personalities, but my mom and I are both total clean freaks.
LOVE IT!
Long nails look so pretty to me, but I think shorter nails are just more practical. It’s a little harder to type with long nails.
I’m squeezing in a quick morning workout, so I’m covered in stretchy stuff that wicks — black Lululemon workout pants, a white tank top and black sweatshirt.
Eat sensibly (that means no more dark chocolate stars), work on managing my time better than last week, start a new filing system, research window treatments and do some planning for the holidays.
Good morning, ladies! Happy Monday.
I feel like I’ve been up forever… This morning around 4:30 Tabs went to work trying to open the cabinets under the sink, pawing and scratching at it for reasons unknown. I think he’s looking for CS Lewis’ magic wardrobe as a means to escape.
After I shouted at him to knock it off, he jumped on the bed, plopped on top of my head and started purring, completely ignoring the fact that I was mad. Typical.
Hope you have a great day today. While you tackle that first (or second) cup of coffee, take a second to check in with the Monday Poll. Just copy the list below, and paste it in the comments with your answers. 🙂

You can’t really blame Tabs. I mean, isn’t the whole reason people get cats because they purr and snuggle?

Hey Karen,
My midterm’s for Inorganic Chem…yippee!
You know, I’ve never really tried out Vitamin C tablets. I usually chug orange juice and hot tea. Do you find that the Vitamin C helps a lot?
.-= Jacks’s last blog post… Review: YSL Parisienne =-.
Hi Jacks,
Sounds like fun… okay, not really. 🙂
I think Vitamin C helps. I drink Emergen-C (the tangerine or raspberry flavor… yum!) every day during the cold/flu season. And the moment I start feeling sick I also take Ester C pills and start sucking on Cold-EEZE zinc lozenges, which I think helps too. I’ve heard that raw garlic is also good to fight emerging colds, but have yet to try it.
I’m kind of a workaholic so I don’t like getting sick at ALL and do everything I can to prevent it!
1. Mood: Slightly frazzled
2. Do you make your bed? Yes, my mom would freak out if I didn’t!

5. Eyes/lips/cheeks: Nothing at the moment, but am planning on using the Kat Von D True Love palette today.
6. In what ways are you like your mom? My facial shape, features and skin are exactly like my mom and her 6 sisters. (& of course my Lola) Before my mom retired, I liked her style (Chanel-like jackets, great shoes & purses). Now in retirement, she has taken a liking to sweatsuits. We also have a love affair for shoes & purses. Both of our closets are packed with them. 😉
7. Do you like to dance? Yes
8. Long or short nails? Short and squared off. I’d do longer, but they’re hard to maintain.
9. Outfit: Jimmy Choo for H&M black leggings, Forever 21 gray & black plaid shirt, and a Forever 21 cardigan. Going out soon, so I will be shortly wearing Steve Madden leather boots and a black wool coat.
10. Weekly goals: To be happy

10. Weekly goals: Survive! I didn’t quite make 8hrs of sleep a night last week… and I know it’s not quite realistic for this week. I’d like to make close to 8hrs a night though, get all my work done, and start organizing my studying for finals!

Karen,
Yes, I did. I have Social Psychology through Film and Physical Geography on Mondays. I got so bored today in physical geography, I made paper cranes and jumping frogs. I’m usually never that bored. It felt like such a long day being in there today.
Zena is in between. She’s not shedding shedding like she does in spring but boy is there fur!
Hi Kate & Zena,
Oh gosh, I signed up for a geography class and I was out of there after ONE LECTURE. Seriously, I don’t think I’ve ever been that bored in my life.
Is Queen Z. dressed up today?
Hi Karen, I would probably be crocheting some scarfs and do some mini oil paintings.

Hi Marisol,
WELCOME TO MY WORLD.
Gah, I’m tardy to the party.
Mood:
Tired. I worked 10 hours today so I’m ready to crash in a bit.
Do you make your bed?
If you consider tossing my comforter over my messy blankets and PJs, then yes!
Have you started holiday shopping?
I’ve become a year-round gift hoarder (at least for my close friends). I’m always picking up something I find that my best friend would like, and then send everything to her in a big package.
Favorite fruit?
Pomegranates, fuji apples, and bananas.
Eyes/lips/cheeks:
MAC’s Creme De Miel e/s, MAC’s Squeeze it l/g, and tarte’s blush in Flush.
In what ways are you like your mother?
Haha, that’s a tough one. Both stubborn as hell though.

Yup. 😉
Long or short nails?
I’ve had short nails since I was 6 and started playing the violin. Can’t live with long nails at all.
Outfit:
Black tshirt, jeans, gray cardigan.
Weekly goals:
Fit in 3 work outs, get more sleep, and make some plans with my friends this weekend 🙂
Karen,
Well, I had two choices really–biology with lab or geography for this semester. I can’t do bio w/lab because I’m hideously, hideously allergic to formaldehyde (aka the preservative in dissection animals) so I chose geography. I took a geo class my senior year of hs and liked it but PHYSICAL geography is soooo boring. Normally, I can bribe myself into staying interested (ie. self-fulfilling prophecy. I enjoy this class, I enjoy this class) but today I just couldn’t do it for some reason. I totally spaced out after about an hour and started making cranes and frogs out of sticky notes!
No, Queen Z isn’t in a sweater at the moment. She’s relaxing/napping on the couch after apparently having a bad day. Mom cleaned the carpets today to finally rid of skunk smell and poor Z is terrified of carpet cleaners and vacuums. It’s the noise more than the actual machines.
Well, let me know if you do win the lottery. I’ll save you a seat in class. 😉
.-= Christina’s last blog post… Day Five: Good Riddance =-.
1. Mood: Very tired…it was really hard waking up at 6:30 this morning!

3. Have you started holiday shopping? Nope! I need to save my money.

5. Eyes/lips/cheeks: Eyes: Some Rubenesque paint pot with a little Sin eyeshadow from UD on top, a smidge of black eyeliner, mascara. Lips: Some random pineapple lipgloss from Bath & Body Works. Cheeks: NARS Orgasm? Lol, can’t remember
6. In what ways are you like your mom? We are both people who like to interact with other people, we have the same social skills and sense of humor. We’re pretty alike 🙂

8. Long or short nails? Long in theory, but I always bite them. I know, bad me! I just can’t help myself. But my nail bed is long so it doesn’t look weird.
9. Outfit: Dark skinny jeans, a purple t-shirt, a navy sweatshirt from my school and Uggs. Stylish, I know.
10. Weekly goals: Work out at the gym, remember my friends birthday tomorrow, get enough sleep, do my homework (unfortunatly), eat healthier and bring my lunch more often.

.-= ines + cha cha’s last blog post… Product Review: LUSH Chocolate Whip Stick Lip Balm =-.
Hi Karen! No. 🙁 My dad said he couldn’t bring it after all so he is mailing me a check so we can buy a used one. I feel bad taking money from my dad but I’ll pay him back eventually. He’s got enough to spare, but at my age it just feels wrong, you know? We felt confident about moving because Daniel had some jobs lined up and they all fell through (he does contract work, IT stuff) so we’re stressing the money thing right now. He’s got something more permanent coming up starting in 2010, but December is going to be rough…

3. Have you started holiday shopping? No.
4. Favorite fruit? Strawberries, definitely!
5. Eyes/lips/cheeks: blank, blank and blank. Clean face = more concentration as i study. I tend to touch my face a lot, so wearing makeup all the time would drive me crazaaayyy.

7. Do you like to dance? NOOOO.
8. Long or short nails? Short – for EVER. Long nails get dirty faster, and then you basically carry germs around with you everywhere.. hahaa.

7. Do you like to dance? No.
8. Long or short nails? As long as they get.
9. Outfit: T-shirt, cashmere pullover, jeans as always.
