OMG - drove by Starbucks on a work errand and it is the 14th birthday of Pumpkin Spice. They are giving away free cake today at my Starbucks and something about pumpkin-spice whipped cream on any drink. It is everywhere - more prevalent than zombies.
I keep having a minor freak out b/c my wedding ring isn't on my finger before I remember that I broke it. I'm considering buying one of these to wear until mine gets fixed.
About a month ago, I complimented a client on this cool wire-style ring she had on and she revealed it was modeled after star trek. It was gold, but looked a lot like this one and was really pretty.

I bought green lipstick at lunch. I'm wearing it now. I think I look hella cute. I'm not sure if reality reflects that, but in the words of Estelle Imma do my thing.
There's a show on DIY called "Bus Life Ever" about people who convert buses to live on. Who knew there were that many people doing this, that they could make a show about it.
So many come through my town on their way to burning man every summer I can believe it.
I need to get my shit ready for working next week, which will include some clothes shopping (which I despise.). But I have NO motivation this week. :\ I've got a huge case of the blahs.
I hate it too. I need new Fall clothes but no desire to go stare at myself trying to find something flattering AND that fits me well. HA.
I just applied for the Obama Foundation fellowship. In true bimbi fashion, I found out about it yesterday and finished the app about an hour before it was due, lol.
I have no idea if I have any chance whatsoever, but hey, why not try?
I had a mental breakdown last night and almost admitted myself to the hospital. I tried to hurt myself but instead called a friend who stayed with me all night after my husband and I had a horrible fight, which made me feel worse. My friends decided that they couldn't watch me do that to myself any longer and ambushed me at work. My choices were to go to the hospital or go see my doctor. I chose to see my doctor. She held my hand and prescribed me an anti-depressant and a referral to a psychiatrist. She also gave me a new referral to get my EEG and CT scan done sooner. I also got a doctor's note so that I could go back to work because my boss had told me that she was putting me on paid leave until I got some help and had a plan in place. This day was so hard.
Someone anonymously sent us $85 in Kroger gift cards. I figure it was someone from church, since several people have asked about DH’s job search lately. It’s nice to know people are thinking of us.
@darnkatz I’m glad you got some help. I’ve been on that road myself and I’ll be thinking of you.

I really hope you like your new job!
4 hours resulted in 2 bras, 2 shirts, 1 jeans. LOL! I did find 2 dresses (1 has POCKETS!!!) but they're like $50 each, and they're not that cute. I think. So they're holding them.
Stupid thing is that I have tons of cute clothes a few sizes smaller...insert Charlie Brown good grief face.

One time there was an old school bus for sale by our house. You have no idea how many times my H asked if we could buy it.
I went volunteered at a free spay/neuter clinic in Alamosa this weekend. The org I was with helped 181 animals in 4 days. There were 2 other groups there so I'm guessing at least 300 animals were speutered and vaccinated. One group brought back 20 kittens to be placed with another shelter. I about died from all the kitten cuteness. I smell and my clothing smells like a million animals, dirt, and skunk because two dogs I picked up had been sprayed.
