Thursday Thoughts


This week I'm doing the linkup that Jennifer hosts over on Ramblings of a Suburban Mom.

- My sample of Beyonce's perfume came from PinchMe yesterday but the vial shattered in transit. I set the package down on my couch before realizing this and now the couch smells rather strongly of Rise.  I guess there are worse things it could smell like!

- I saw over on The Impulsive Buy that Oreo is coming out with a Reese's flavor.  I need this in my life.  Like, now.  I'll even brave Walmart for them.

- I finally finished House of Leaves and let me just say...whoa.  It's easily the most unique reading experience I've ever had.  After finishing, I spent a couple hours Googling various aspects of the book.  Awesome on so many levels.




- You can really learn a lot about humanity by selling things on Ebay.  I've had some of the most bizzare/rude/hilarious interactions with buyers.  Most recently, someone wanted to buy a few of my auctions for the starting price and come to my house to pick them up.  Ummm, this ain't Craigslist, lady.

-I FINALLY made an appointment to get my hair cut this weekend!  I haven't gone since October.  I'm like 99% sure I'll wind up only getting a trim, but we all know going to the salon is about the hour-long break from real life more so than the actual cut.

- Lastly, if you haven't entered my Blogiversary Giveaway yet, you should go do that now! <3

  1. OMG I am never tempted by those Oreo flavors. But that is a MUST HAVE.

    House of Leaves cover looks very Stephenson, but this - , complete with the original colored words, vertical footnotes, and newly added second and third appendices. - super Nabokovian. Very Pale Fire. I will actually add this to my list. I love reading, but I'm actually very picky about what I read. Thanks for the recommendation!!

  2. Reese. Flavored. Oreos.

    WHY MUST WE PLAY GOD

    I... I need these. For... reasons.

    Also, my Beyonce sample was also smashed to pieces. It legit looks like the mailman just sat on it.
