Count Down Is On!!
[ No Comments ] Posted on 07.02.09 under Uncategorized
I am so excited, my best friend from childhood is coming to visit me next week. This is the second year she has decided to spend her summer holidays in Europe and include me in them, and I hope it continues! As her birthday was just last month I thought about something really special to get her, it was her first time turning 29. Something like this heart pendant necklace, or I may just take her shopping. Either way I can hardly wait!
All Dressed Up & No Where To Go

When I hear or read “tuxedo shirt” the first thing that comes into my mind is not in fact a sexy and sophisticated outfit that you will find if you follow that link. Instead when I think tuxedo shirt I think of those t shirts with a cartoon tuxedo drawn on there cartoon style. The one’s people at one point in time thought were funny. (There was nothing entertaining about them! And I am not even a fashion queen). Stick with the real ones. 
Dropkick Throat Punch!

Im never really sure if throat punch is one word or two. Either way the imagery is effective.
I am locked into my expensive contract at the gym, and they are expensive, from what I have found out from others is that they charge double to triple more than anywhere else. (Never assume and just go with a plan). For the amount of money I have spent I could have invested in my own fitness equipment and I would still have money to spare! And then today I left my watch, and called them to ask if they could check my locker to see if it was still there.
At a 100 dollars a month dont you think they could do me the courtesy of at least calling back???
Ive canceled the contract, but all that means is that Im locked in till October and then they will not renew it.

German Summer…..

… translates into rain rain rain. Which is sad because this area of Europe has some of the best motorcycling in the world. In 2 hours we are in Switzerland, Austria or Italy. A day trip and we are in the Alps. But it means starting out in the cold, wet rain. (It particularly likes to rain on weekends here). Which translates into rain gear and motorcycle covers. And who really wants to cover up their bike? (Ok, I do in the rain, but I wish there was more sun for more showing off opportunities!)
Summer Is Here!

It took a little while for summer to come to Germany, it was cold and wet here until, well really it hasn’t stopped. 2 days ago we had more rain. BUT, the time in between down pours is becoming longer and longer. And it means BBQ season! 
And we are investing in an outdoor table set to enjoy our days of BBQing and soaking up the sun as long as it is available to us! Which also means buying patio furniture covers, and the websites name is perfect, cozy days they are when you can enjoy the outdoors and food together!
Do Not Try This At Home!!!

Night At Home…..

…and despite knowing better I could not help but indulge in buying (an even as I write this I have full intentions of eating it) a quantity of chocolate that shall remain unidentified, and do so while eating popcorn and watching a movie. I know that the first 2 weeks of not indulging in chocolate were the hardest, and once I eat that chocolate its going to be harder to say no next time. But I also understand while people turn to diet pill. It is really really hard to first of all say no, but then to keep doing so is next to impossible!

The beauty of May and June in Germany is not just the beautiful scenery but all the holidays you get! There is a slight downside. in between the holidays you need to work twice as hard to make up for it. However all the time spent exploring Europe on my long weekends does make it worth it! We spent a long weekend in Austria including a day trip to Italy. I was good, I did little to no shopping. BUUUUT all the pretty handbags made me realize that I need a new one! And instead of spending this evening being productive Ive been checking out a website for a wholesale handbags website!
You Know You Shouldn’t

I need a new laptop. This one was the direct recipient of an unfortunate punching accident. I now have no space bar and typing is really beginning to drive me nuts, so I decided to just pop over to the best buy website (as you know one can always find a best buy at www.buy.com) and now I wish I hadn’t. The weekly deals make me want to buy everything on the site, but especailly the Polaroid 7MP Digital Zoom Camera, which is only $37.99. How do I explain away more packages of stuff????? (I just need to get to the mail first!)
So Tired…..

And yet unable to sleep. Plus to add insult to injury I decided that after almost a full week where I have not been able to go to the gym (work, travel, etc, the usual reasons), tonight I would finally go. My gym uses those techno keys and now I cant find it (which means I can not check in or use the machines). Double growl! Plus I am watching what I am eating, using nutritional health supplements, and I WANT to go to the gym. Here is to hoping I find that stupid key. I really dont want to have to buy another.
