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!!

"What part of LA do you live in?" And Other Important thoughts and questions that go through my head

Oh me. Single as all get out, in the dating world, BIG TIME, not just a toe dipper, nope I am full on doused into the deep end of it.  Yes I am on Tinder, yes I am on Ok Cupid, and yes, I am too cheap to join Match/E-Harmony so I am going with the free ones...which has not proven to be worth it yet but can you complain when you aren't paying for anything....? The things I have stumbled upon, the people I have met, and the amount of drinks I have downed to get through some pretty horrendous dates are quite....interesting.  My last two blog posts can show you a little insight into that. Here are a small amount of things that go through my mind when I am gandering (it's a word even though this tells me it's not- I made it up apparently) at these so called "Dating Bios." How old is he...? Dating sites have filters mostly...unfortunately for Ok Cupid, anyone can message you- but it filters out the age you don't want from your viewing.  So this week for inst...

Rants and Rants and No Raves

Just some things that drive this girl batty- LA DRIVERS- Sometimes I think I need my own reality show (pause for hysterics) but seriously, like just when I am driving in my car.  Can we talk about Los Angeles drivers (literally as I typed that sentence I hear a symphony of car horns on the street below my office window) they are the WORST, although when I was in NYC I feared for my life in the cab, more then once....  BUT LA! I MEAN HOLY CRAP.  I am from Seattle- the traffic there is a fraction of the traffic here, and at the appropriate times- morning, and evening.  Traffic in LA happens at 7AM,  8am, 11am, 1PM, 3PM, 5PM, 6PM, 7PM, 8PM, and etc etc etc etc.  It is one of the main of a small amount of reasons I hate this city, the lack of transportation and how the geography is laid out.  If you live in West LA, and I live in East, you can forget hanging out until Saturdays or Sundays.  When I was on dating apps (SO glad those days are over...

Currently Edition 4

Oh hello!  My last Currently  was in December! My how time has flown!  Already 11 days into April.  OH and FYI, it's been 105 years since Titanic's maiden voyage (NERD ALERT, if you have read my past blogs, you know I am a Titanic fan) and on April 14, it's been 105 years since she sunk.  Since I was 11 I have been remembering this date as if it should be a national day on calendars, to remember. ANYWAY...April 11! So much has happened since December.  Work pace has picked up, I am heading 3 brand new, and time consuming projects that are actually SO MUCH FUN and I am loving them.  But...alas this is not a blog about my job, it's about the going on's in my life! Here goes nothing... Drinking This isn't really as exciting when it's not a festive time of year...but the usualy, coffee from the Keurig in the AM with almond milk.. TONS of H2O throughout the day, I think I spend equal amounts of time at my desk and in the bathroom because I have to go ...
