NYE 2009
Involves:
1) Champers (at home)
2. Hibachi
3. Cocktails
I’m ready to wish 2009 a sound farewell, and wave a cheery hello! to 2010.
Today is most certainly NOT my favorite day. So far.
I would like to be optimistic.
Note to others: If you are wretched, keep your mouth shut.
e-cleansing
In honor of my 2010 saving spree, I am purging my inbox. As of 12/29/09, I shall not be solicited! I know I can’t save if there are temptastic emails of handbags! shoes! and makeup! floating through my cache daily. Therefore,
Farewell Rebecca Minkoff!
Adios Piperlime!
Sayonara Banana Republic, Gap, and Old Navy!
Toodles Hayden-Harnett!
ByeBye Shop It to Me!
Bon Voyage EMS! (yes...
Copy Kate (instead of copy CAT, get it?)
It’s official. I’m copying Kate’s plan to tighten the belt and stop buying crap I don’t need, solely because it’s pretty, and new.
I’ve been spending, like I can, and I can’t. Because, I have goals, especially for 2010, that will not happen if I am not careful and keep spending like I have been.
I’m excited.
2009
This year was interesting. It was a rollercoaster, of both negative and positive extremes. In summary, this year:
- I was robbed (so was my bestie), at 11:57 on NYE (should have known then, no?)
- I worked really, really hard.
- The economy tanked and then stayed crappy. For the whoooole year. It was depressing.
- I went to San Francisco, the Hamptons, Newport, NYC, Boston, and Maine.
- I...
OMG the Trader Joe’s farter from the Connecticut Craigslist made it on to Chelsea Lately. Typical.

I know that you were on weightwatchers? How much weight did you lose?
I lost 17 lbs, but it took over 6 months! The Weight Watchers plan is awesome- I was never technically overweight but I was very heavy for me, and my eating was OUT OF CONTROL from college (eating a whole pizza late night, and a buffalo chicken wrap for lunch with fries, then ice cream… you get the...

Animal Rescues
Me: OMG I finally found a Cavalier for rescue in the area but we don't have a chance
Jess: Oh no!! Why??
Me: This rescue is nuts. You MUST be 25, have a fenced in yard, MUST have EXTENSIVE vet references, and you MUST have another dog or other animals- absolutely NO first time dog owners are accepted.
Me: I can't believe it- I mean I understand you want them to go to good homes, but god knows I'm hella more mature then a lot of 25 year olds. Isn't that age discrimination? And must have other pets?? Why?
Jess: Just lie and say you have an adorable parakeet named Jess.
Dear Tumblr,
A ridiculous percentage of people’s posts aren’t showing up on my dashboard. Please fix it.
Love,

Today is our agency holiday luncheon (aka HALF DAY, and WINE before 2 pm, wooop!) and Yankee Swap. I’m contributing a fun little trinket from MoMa posted by the lovely Tanya in one of her gift guides. The number of treats I’ve bought via her and Jaclyn is getting out of hand.
On another note, I snagged a sneak peak of the menu for today, and rumor has it CARAMEL MACCHIATO...
The Daily Chris

Me: HAHAHAHAHAH
Chris: I told her it was leftover for a reason.
