*I began writing this post on March 1st or 2nd. Whoa. I really need to pick up the pace here!
I’m so glad it’s March.
In honor of this fabulous month and the springtime that is coming closer each day, I am going to write all about me.
ME!
What’s new in my world… well…
I cut my hair! I’m so happy - I was growing it out for-ev-er (or so it felt) and kept it long for nearly one year before giving it the old chop chop. Visual aid: (before) - I don’t have an “after” shot yet. Honestly - I couldn’t be happier.
Loving Sarah Waters’ book, Affinity. I bought it at Amazon, from the owner herself! I’m not sure if she’s ever been working the register when I’ve been in before. Not that I recall at least. What a great bookstore. What an engrossing book. I’m on page 100something. Quite an interesting read so far!
I got back from Las Vegas bright and early this morning. I had a great trip - much different than my last one. This was my second time going to Vegas. I spent too much money gambling. I think that happened because we didn’t go to any shows this time. I went with three other folks (my mom, her friend/co-worker, and my friend/co-worker). Highlight of the trip - getting my photo taken on the starship enterprise (as captain!). I exclaimed, as the four of us (two strangers and my friend) walked toward the simulated deck, “This is the geekiest I’ve ever felt in my life, and I love it!” To which, the other woman with us replied, “You’re among friends.” I love trekkies. Also, Star Trek: The Experience is totally worth the 32 bucks that it costs to go (with a $10 off coupon). There are two rides (each 20 minutes long), a museum, a gift shop, and a restaurant. I’d highly recommend it. I’ve only seen the original star trek and star trek the next generation and I had tons of fun.
I’m unbelievably introspective today. It’s freaking me out a little bit, but I’m working my way through it. Namastie, bitches!
