New shoes!

My wonderful roommates gave me a zappo’s gift certificate for my birthday, and I finally settled on a pair of shoes! My old asics have done me well, but they were really wearing down so it was time for something new:

I can’t wait for them to arrive!

Gmail Snow?

Gmail seems to think it’s snowing in Seattle. It’s 50 degrees and raining. I’d like some snow please!

Read: The Color of Water

I recently finished The Color of Water by James McBride. I bought it a little under three years ago (wow, time is flying) in a used bookstore in NYC across the street from Magnolia Bakery. My mom and had just gobbled down our cupcakes and wandered in, so upon the recommendation of my mom I purchased The Color of Water. For some reason I just never read it. I could only fit a limited number of books in my bags to Seattle, so I picked only ones I hadn’t yet read. This one came along for the ride. For whatever reason I picked it up to read on Sunday, and finished it last night. It is simple and reads quickly, but eloquently written. For some reason it just spoke to me and I really enjoyed it.

I want to eat this. Thank you This is Why You’re Fat.

I can grow my hair out.
I can grow my hair out.
I can grow my hair out.
I can grow my hair out.
I can grow my hair out.
I can grow my hair out.

If you think I’m silly for stressing about this, you really don’t understand how attached I am to short hair. THIS IS TOUGH!

For Maggie!

Oh fffound. I hit the jackpot:

A new year means new resolutions.

I really thought I did a new year’s resolutions post last year, but I went searching and sure couldn’t find it. I don’t remember what my resolutions were last year. I’m sure “go to the gym” was one of them, just like it is every year. And every year I FAIL at that. Maybe 2009 will be my year.

Christmas break has been wonderful! Rhiannon spent Christmas with us and got a real dose of America, haaa.

I didn’t read all that I wanted to yet. Actually, I’ve done no reading at all. I guess I have a few days left, but I doubt I’ll get around to finishing Harry Potter 7. Will it ever happen?

Also, I went to see Twilight and I liked it. The end.
