Currently- Edition 2

Currently-Edition 2

Two weeks later, I have been 31 for 14 days, I have had the WORST cold for almost 1 week, I went to North Carolina and back and it is NOVEMBER 1st!!! WOOHOO! You know what this means...Fall is in FULL SWING (officially we 'fall back' in a few days), time to break out the boots, scarves, coats, flannels.  Put away the Halloween decor and break out the in-between Halloween and Christmas decor (which for me is one in the same...I put out "winter" decor, I'll do my tree a little later on.  And drinking hot drinks, and quite possibly attempting to add a Christmas playlist into your Pandora shuffle just for a light preview.  So now, day 1 of November, here are the 'currently's' happening!

Drinking

My body is begging me to drink water, water and more water.  But on the first day of November, I splurged on a fancy (free thanks to earned rewards!) Starbucks drink, it was my go-to in college, Grande Soy White Chocolate Peppermint Mocha...HOWEVER, since I used to work there, I know the ins and outs of how to order and how much damn syrup they actually put in those cups if you don't request otherwise- so I do ONE pump white mocha and 2 pumps of peppermint (Just a heads up- Starbucks would do FOUR (4!!!!!) of each syrup if I had not requested otherwise.... GROSS, not too mention sugar overload).  It was delightful and just what I wanted, however since I have been at my desk I am going on about my 40th oz of water and 2nd hot cup of green tea.  MENDING.

Eating

Beside my oatmeal with blue berries, nothing yet, it's only 11AM.  For lunch I plan to walk to Whole Foods and make a salad full of antioxidants and vitamin C. Gotta kick this damn bug!

Listening

Don't judge... but I added a few Christmas playlists to my Pandora Shuffle...I am in the mood early this year! I want to soak up every ounce of Holiday that I can get my hands on!!

Wearing

I got the cutest flannel at a Target in North Carolina!  It's navy and the plaid has a bright pink line going throughout.  Not to mention comfy factor, and casual Tuesdays at work! Paired with Navy pants and brown knee high boots...for LA not being freezing but FINALLY staying in the high 60s low 70s, I feel it is time to break out the boots!

Wanting

Still want Anne of Green Gables (CHRISTMAS LIST!!) But as of late, I got so many gift cards for my birthday (so much YES) that I have been frequenting Marshals and TJ Maxx and have found the BEST things ever.  I have already spent $150, do you know how far that stretches at these stores!? It's amazing.  So my wants are dwindling since I have been fulfilling them so much lately. :)

Reading

So last time I wrote, I had just finished "Behind Closed Doors", now since then, I have finished "Woman in Cabin 10".  OMG. SO GOOD, such a thriller and I just got lost in it.  On to the next thriller...need to find a new good one!!

Watching

Still, 'This is Us', and loving!  Also started SJPs newest, 'Divorce' and it's interesting! I am not hooked yet but I will definitely keep watching.  It's dark, and comical, and definitely a different vibe then all the other shows I am watching.  Also, TWD FINALLY CAME BACK. I am devastated after the loss of Glen and Abraham- RIP. But excited to see where this season goes!!

Fem

I am no feminist, or at least not an activist for feminism, but I just read the most interesting article.  Someone started a tweet chat where they asked men 16 questions of situations that women experience nearly on the daily- down to texting your friend that you got home safely, because this legitimately is something that women have to do.  It was so interesting to me to see how these things are actually ever present in my everyday life. Being a woman- means you DO have to watch your back, you do have to carry pepper spray, or even a small knife with you.  It means walking on streets late at night that there is a chance for something bad to happen. It means that people can blame your emotions on "that time of the month." THIS is a big one for me.  I am allowed to be upset, cry, or express anything I want via tears or with haste if it is upsetting, and NO it doesn't mean it's that time of the month. It means there is a chance that your ideas at work may be look...

A Little Sap

My biggest fear is that I will forget my memories. Whether they be fond, happy, sad, angry, or confusing memories, I don't want to forget them. Hence the reason one blogs perhaps?  Definitely one of the several reasons why I re-started blogging.   Since October my life has been such a cluster.  A blurred-together-all-in-one-cloud--- life.  I can't differentiate what I did in November with what I did in February.  That is not said negatively.  I have enjoyed every moment, adventure, conversation, dinner, drink, walk, hike, drive, experience and discovery that I have encountered.   Someone said to me the other day, "don't just survive, live."  And then I realized, I am living, even though it may look like I am just surviving sometimes.  Although I look at my life and think, I am 28, I live in a tiny studio apartment with no parking, I have a Los Angeles address, I have no significant other, I don't have 35 different friends to hang ...

Good Morning Everyone...!

So a man just walked into the coffeebean I'm at, which is on Wilshire Blvd in Beverly Hills, and announced just like this, "good morning everyone! I am a piece of shit!" No one paid any attention to him. He was clearly homeless, and probably just hungry and has misplaced his marbles somewhere. He proceeded to say that talking bad about himself out loud will make people want to be his friend because they will feel better about themselves. He was then escorted out by an employee. What I'd like to know is who in the world taught him that notion? How sad to think that putting yourself down will attract people that will be your friend.  Poor guy. It's Friday! And hot damn August is almost over. I don't even know where it went. Down some avenue away to some imaginary land I presume. Ever since April I don't even know what I've been doing. Traveling to Los Angeles a hell of a lot to hang out with people, explore, see stand up, eat, drink and be merry. It...
