I am so lucky to wake to the sound of transformers outside my window and the smell of my roommates' second hand smoke filtering in under the door every morning. Living with foreigners sucks! Ok, no, I take that back. Living with multiple pack a day smokers who turn your living room in to a smoking den and never open the window sucks. But cancer aside, today started off just fine. I finally got some of my Christmas cards in the mail and my last present from my mom, a much needed pair of iPod head phones. Mine were starting to sound like a CB radio from the 1970's. On my way to work I stopped by my bank to withdrawal the massive amount of rent I'm paying for my healthy abode, only to discover that my job decided not to pay me! I took this up with the sturdy Eastern European woman in charge of payroll. One word about not being paid and she was on the phone with HR immediately. I gave her a cherry red smile and went about my day, assured that she would make my world right again. She's definitely my new favorite person in the office. Half way through the day and all the way through my sandwich I went to the bathroom to check the damage that had been done to my lip wear. I stared into the mirror and was shocked at what I saw. Not only had my lipstick stained my chin from stuffing a sandwich in my mouth but it had also turned a ghastly shade of late 80's pink! I immediately scrubbed my face and re-applied the ruby pigment, sans the light pink lip gloss, which I think was the culprit. But despite these unfortunate setbacks it was otherwise a great day. Can't wait for tomorrow, it's Friday!
Bacio!
