I don't really enjoy red either, I prefer white and rosé in the wine category.

I think my job hunt is over. The follow up interview went really well so we are just waiting on the background check for them to make the job offer and seeing as I have a pretty damn clean record everything seems to be falling into place.

This is for yesterday but whatever, I'm still in a good mood because if it. We had our work Christmas party and it was wonderful. We went to a restaurant for dinner, and our bosses (we have two) surprised us with really nice gift baskets filled with a lot of Wonderbra products (I now own a Wonderbra purse XD) and little odds and ends, including nipple pasties XD I also won a prize in a draw we had (little porcelain snowmen) and our gift exchange actually turned out really good, I was afraid the sushi set would go to someone who hates sushi, but it ended up with a girl who really liked it. I got a really nice reader's wrap that I can't seem to take off. The food wasn't bad, I could only have the salad (it was good though, spinach with cantelope, watermelon and almonds) and I was pleasantly surprised that when people asked "are you vegan?" it was followed up by "I could probably do that" and we talked for a while on how awesome certain veggies are and swapped some recipes. Must remember that one of my bosses's loves anything to do with chickpeas.

My day was made by getting email from Barnes + Noble saying that my text books have shipped then I went to the campus and bought a couple sets of scrubs and the workbooks. Things finally feel like a reality!

Well Jake and I decided to open our Christmas gifts from each other early (since we don't know what our schedules will be) so I'm typing this on an adorable pink dsi!

Um, scratch what I posted earlier. THIS is what really made my day:
So I went to PetsMart today too. As I'm checking out with my case of cat food and two boxes of milk the cashier compliments me on my necklace. Then I get picked up on out side the store heading to my car!
The guy had exited a few minutes before me with his tiny dog (I think it was some sort of Terrier) He asked me if I knew where the closest DSW was. I told him in my barely here voice that I didn't know what that was. He told me it was a shoe store and I told him there was a Skechers and Payless right over there while pointing in the general direction. He asked if I was new in town and I told him we've been here about six months (which is actually closer to a year but oh well). He said something else (I'm pretty sure) then tells me that I'm a MILF! I chuckle and tell him thanks and good luck with the shoes.
Wow, almost makes the realization that I probably have mild bronchitis worth it!
I was knocked off my feet but tried to stay aware as I went to my car and noticed him talking on a cell phone in front of the store. I'm trying to just take this at face value and not think he was calling an accomplice to tell him of a potential future target. (there had been some recent attacks in shopping center parking lots in our area and I'm feeling a bit vulnerable ATM)
Then I ended the evening cuddling with my man watching the Half Blood Prince and drinking a Cap'n n Coke.

Great band, saw them live this summer and I was in the same boat as you as well. Fucking loud as the apocalypse.

I'm glad that the attention was not totally unwanted and that you took the comment as a positive statement, but since when did that acronym become a socially acceptable compliement?
I'm not picking on you, Cara ... I'm speaking to the culture we live in (and by culture I mean the kind that grows in a petri dish.)
If I casually mentioned to a woman I'd just met, "Hey, you look like someone I'd like to fuck", I'd expect to get slapped ... at minimum. If I amended the statement to, "Hey, you look like a mom I'd like to fuck" (the origin phrase of M.I.L.F.), I wouldn't expect that to change. But I have heard it in many places (on the internet and on TV) that saying to a woman that she's a MILF can be considered flattering and and complimentary at times.
How did that happen? Ladies, any comments or opinions?

I got the NetFlix sub and then I got the free DVD so I can connect my PS3 up to the wi-fi and stream hundreds and hundreds of movies and television shows instantly on my 47 inch LCD TV.
So I was browsing through the catalog of offerings and found that I can watch the entire television series "Dead Like Me", and someone had mentioned it to me once so I started in on it the other day ...
I've gone through 10 episodes in 2 days (about to hit up #11 next) and that has really made my day for several days in a row. What a charmingly delightful and quirky little show about being dead and being a grim reaper. Fun stuff!!!!

Ya know, I'm really not too sure. Yes, with the way it was worded I probably should have been offended but have been fighting a cold for a few days and that seriously brightened my mood so i haven't wanted to over analyze the moment =) If I felt less like a pile of shit and had more voice I hope I would have told the dude off.
I suspect that so many people are starving for any sort of complimentary attention these days that they are willing to receive it even if it is presented in a somewhat degrading manner.

Finishing Latin with the easiest exam of the year. Having passed the course for the year, I now get a good three weeks to see my family, relax, and drink my recently completed home brew beer.
