What's Happening?

Nothing here. Seriously...nothing. Just working and hanging out with friends and family.

I've tried to think of something interesting to write about for this here bloggy blog, but I'm coming up blank folks.

Hmmm... what can I talk about? Oh I cooked! Two nights in a row! I made this on Monday and this last night. Both were insanely delicious. Although now I have WAY TOO MUCH mac and cheese at my house. Do you want some mac and cheese?

Last Friday I went to Friday Night at the De Young Museum, which was so cool! Apparently it was opening night, and there was an awesome band and a bar, plus we could wander around parts of the museum for free. Definitely something that I will be doing regularly this summer.

Otherwise, most of the exciting things I have planned won't be happening for a while...the closest is this Black Keys concert in May, which is pretty exciting, but not for another 3 weeks.

Ooh, I have tickets to Outsidelands, which is this big, 3-day concert in San Francisco, but that's not until August.

I'm going to Hawaii! But...not until October.

I'm aware all those things sounded like bragging...which they kinda are...but I'm still excited. Until then, nothing's really going on. Maybe there will be some poolside lounging this weekend, a pedicure (so needed), helping Miranda find a dress for a gala event. Maybe I might even take some pictures. Maybe even blog about it. Who knows? I know you're excited.

A little spring in my step

 Hi spring. It's so nice to see you again. I really missed you.

 Yesterday was very gloomy and rainy, and last night was incredibly stormy. Today there are still some clouds, but the sun has poked through and stayed for a few hours. I like to think he stayed for me, to congratulate me. It made me smile and made my day that much better.

Wherein I talk about dresses and sleep deprivation

Soooooo.....last night when I got off work at 9:30, instead of coming home and being responsible and doing at least an hour's worth of studying for my final on Wednesday, I decided to go online window shopping for dresses.  Because it is almost spring, which means warm weather, which means I don't have to wear jeans all the freakin' time. I have a love/hate relationship with jeans, and for awhile it has been hate because most of my jeans are too big. Thus they fall and then I am constantly paranoid about my underwear showing. Bad new bears, man. But I love dresses. Love them. And I really think I need more day dresses, because so many of mine are too fancy for normal, everyday clothing, and I would wear them everyday once the weather gets warm (I'm trying to justify wanting so many, please bear with me).

Anyhoo...I spent a good hour and a half looking at about every dress at shabbyapple and PiperLime and well, that just not a smart thing for this girl to do before she goes to sleep. After looking at all the pretty dresses, I turned off my computer, switched off the light and got all cuddled up in bed with the kitten. But did I sleep? No sir I did not. After having spent at all that time staring at dresses,  I thought about which one(s) I might actually be able to buy, then if I did, which shoes and accessories I would wear with them. And for what occasion. Then my mind starts going on all the things I can't wait to do after Saturday. Then I started thinking about all the things I have to this week so that I'm prepared for my finals. Then I started getting a little stressed out and then I was just tossing and turning. Until 3 a.m. No bueno. So I'm really sleepy, hence the rambly and strange nature of this post. Sorry. I really need some coffee.

So after all this what have we learned? Mallory should not look at dresses before bed because that just leads to hours of non-sleep, which is very important at this juncture in her life because she has finals, damnit!

A real post later this week. Hopefully I won't be so sleep deprived. Hopefully.
