1. i'm 25 days away from a new phone.
the android/iphone devil/angel situation currently residing on my shoulders is no secret. i honestly have a pro-con list scribbled beside my bed. the list is a mile long and the scores are in a dead even split.
iphone: the camera! the phone covers! {seriously}.
android: everything else!
i've been scouring the internets for reviews + comparisons. serious geekiness.
the only thing left to do is pray it out.
that being said, i found out on twitterville that there's this january photo a day thing happening on that one exclusive iphoneappstagram and i'm missing out.
i'm playing along anyway.
#janphotoaday
what i wore: at the end of the day.
makes me smile: lunch, with a side of pizza.
2. i'm addicted to projects.
the creative room is a disaster at the moment, but shelves are being cut {and painted?} this weekend and then the organization can begin.
the other door in the stripped-and-stained door project awaits a man. the stained glass - half of them broken - means i need help hoisting the door up on the saw horses to clean it, caulk the loose glass tiles, and paint the door. there are just some projects that miss independent can't do alone. so, we're on hold right there with that project.
someday, the finished doors will go side by side and make a really tall headboard.
... someday.
so i've moved onto the kitchen/dining room. a room that's remained untouched since, like, 2007 when i painted the kitchen pea soup green on a whim.
my most current white girl problem?
too many pretty cookbooks and nowhere to display them.
so today i went to office max and for $7.99, i'm going to do this.
except i'm going to float my cookbooks inside an over sized empty purple frame.
{my most recent favorite cookbook? the one i've tried to give away three separate times... but kept it all three times: homemade.}
3. i wore my first pair of jeggings today.
i felt like it was a glimmer of what life might be like in pajama jeans and i never want to take them off.
it's a sweet front for wearing stretchy pants to work, essentially.
4. i volunteered to help jordan ferney at alt summit.
but she emailed me today to tell me her sponsors backed out and her party was cancelled so she didn't need my help.
that would have been awesome.
5. i need a head shot.
for work.
dreeeeaaad.
6. i spent the last two days in a conference room analyzing travel patterns and north-south traffic flow in the salt lake valley.
i also spent the last two days across from a well dressed single? mormon? local? engineer? who thought i was funny. {because, in a room of engineers, i am funny.}
ohhhhh the lengths crafty single girls {who, me?} will go to uncover the very important vital statistics of men without wedding rings. never underestimate a girl's ability to find things out.
even going so far as to google "does burger king serve hot chocolate?"
that was going to answer my "is he mormon" question...
and a bk breakfast? i mean, i guess i couldn't judge if he was a business traveler.
i was going to get to the bottom of this. if he was marriage-able, i wanted to know.
after all, there are 100 engineers in my realm who wish for my most immediate eternal happiness. if there is potential out there, i can't deny them the opportunity to execute.
for as long as he would laugh and repeat the funny things i said, would roll his eyes in my direction and whispered something witty when the other guys were showing off with their genius ideas, and other general male games... for as long as those things were happening, i was going to work with it.
until half way through day two.... when, during the back and forth small talk over swedish fish + trail mix, i asked him a question that i knew would give me some telling answers... and the words "my wife..." fell out of his mouth.
and i fell on the floor.
i'm shaking my fist at you, the wedding ring-less easy conversationalist business traveler!
shaking!
back to the drawing board.
