I didn't do too badly today! I did most of the things on my to-do list. I think immediately following the previous entry I finished reading my Bergdorf book. It was hilarious and entertaining, great for light summer reading. It probably beats out all other chick lit for the "label-dropping" award but the story was sweet and sadly believable.
After that I went jogging with Moley (yes, me, jogging!). We went around the block a couple of times and met a couple other neighborhood doggies. Afterwards I gave him a bath, then I gave me a bath. Portofino's was fully booked for the weekend so I exfoliated and applied self-tanner at home. :-P No matter how hard I try to naturally tan, I can't.
Also I've fought every urge (and trust me- there were many) to eat my last bar of chocolate. Godiva milk chocolate with toffee and almonds... who could resist? I'm so proud of myself. Although it will probably be the first thing I eat tomorrow morning =)
Later in the evening I went out to the movies with Richard, and his brother and sister and sister-in-law (phew, full car). We saw Shrek 2. Well, at least the girls did, the guys refused to watch a "chick flick" and saw Van Helsing instead. I can't even remember the last movie I went to see. Oh wait- it was Godsend. Well, I can't remember the last movie I've seen before THAT. Shrek 2 was HILARIOUS. I think it might have even been funnier than the first. The story certainly went along faster. I thought the "Far Far Away" town was funny... it was my second home :P with Barney's Old York and everything.. hehe..
Well the movie was very enjoyable. I'd go see it again even. And now I'm off to sleep, and I might even read a chapter or two in my Soc Psych book. (wow!)

My new hair high has worn off. I want a fake bake. My nails need to be done. I need to exfoliate. But I'm just too darn lazy to d o a n y t h i n g. I want to lie around the bedroom and watch Moley sleep.
But maybe I should take him out for a jog. Burn off the two buttercakes and chocolate bar I just ate. Come home, exfoliate. Make a run to Portofino's for a quick spray.
Or I could pop in a DVD and lounge on the couch. I think I have an extra Godiva bar sitting somewhere...
Or I could lie around in bed and finish reading Bergdorf Blondes...
Or of course, I could start on my Soc Psych paper, or at least catch up on my reading. Sign up for summer classes. Fill out my commencement papers.
I have a million things I need to do, a couple things I should do, and one or two things I want to do but I can't decide. And I'm probably going to end up doing nothing.
Oh, what to do.

Moley's going to have babies! Well, he hasn't impregnated anyone yet, but my childhood friend Shirley has a Cocker Spaniel too, she's buff (in both ways... the color buff and I hear she's pretty buff too) and she's 5 years old. She's going to be in heat soon so we're going to let them get together.
If I had known I wanted to have puppies I would have gotten a female Cocker to begin with. But I guess it's better that I don't raise the puppies. I would get too attached and knowing me I'd probably want to keep all of them.
But can you imagine little cocker babies running around with freckles on their noses? I can! So cute! But what happens if Moley passes down his "pee" gene? The one that makes him spray whenever he meets anyone new... :( Well, we'll see what happens!
Isn't it great how you can be having such a "blah" week and go to get your haircut and it just revives you? I always feel better after I get a good haircut. Whether it's because I'm having a bad week, bad hair day, or just feeling down, a good haircut always gives me a new energy. (And a bad itch to go to Sephora to buy new hair products) Also it's a good thing that I've found a good hair stylist that works great with my hair type (thick and a whole lot of it). My hair guy is from Israel so I guess that makes him used to thinning out hair for girls with too much hair (me). This time I toned down my bangs, and trimmed off 2 inches and added light layers in attempts to give my hair some volume. Then (just to make sure) I went to Sephora to buy a Frederic Fekkai Volume Lift Spray. I love it! But I don't love lifting my hair in sections and spraying and blow-drying for 20 minutes. Takes too l-o-o-ng. I like to towel-dry and go. Oh the sacrifices we women have to make.
