Thirty Days of Meme: Day 27

Day 27: This month, in great detail

December 2nd:

I woke up this morning with a killer sore throat and feeling generally icky. Ugh. Apparently I shouldn't have been playing tennis at night in the cold. Who knew? I curled up on the couch with my laptop and went to work. It was a frustrating day of waiting for something to be fixed, but I did get a chance to work on my iPod playlists. Then once we got our problem resolved, it was a race to get as much done as quickly as possible. At the end of the day, I had a possible bright spot - but I don't want to jinx it, so I'll tell you more about that later. (tease, I know!)

Then I went off to have dinner with my friend Scott at a restaurant called Everybody's in Virginia-Highlands because they are closing that location this week and it has always been one of our favorite places. We were going to walk around a bit, but all the shops were closed and it was cold (have I mentioned that? It's cold. I disapprove.)

Then I came home to ensconce myself on the couch with my laptop, where I uploaded pictures from Thanksgiving and my cousin's wedding (anyone who wants to friend me on FB is welcome, btw, but it is an entirely NON-FANNISH place for me, so you would need to abide by that - no mention of the slash fiction!) and did some Christmas shopping on Amazon and Sephora. I only bought two things for myself, yay? One was a throw blanket that was only $10 - I thought it would be nice for my car. And then I bought a set of Urban Decay eyeliner pencils that I probably didn't need. Such is life.

Oh, and a friend linked me to this site today: www.ebates.com
It's a website where they give discounts, special deals, and cash back for shopping online. I used it for my Sephora purchase and got a free gift with my purchase and will get 6% cash back on my purchase. I will try to remember to post an update when they actually give me the cash, but my friend said the friend that has been using it for a while has gotten lots of cash back with no issues. They require your name, email, and mailing address, but no credit card info.

Thirty Days of Meme: Day 27

Day 27: This month, in great detail

Ok, so I need to preface this entry by saying I've had 3 margaritas. Caveat emptor!

Soooooooo. This morning I got up, stumbled downstairs. Worked. Worked some more. Finished my stupid project that I probably shouldn't have finished. Pre-emptively called in sick for Monday because I have nothing scheduled and I will either get some medicine from the doctor or do this other thing that probably isn't going to happen but would make me stupidly happy if it did. (hi, still a tease.)

Then I got ready and went to tennis drills. One of the girls on my team is leaving for at least six months to travel in Asia, so we all went to drills and then to Taqueria del Sol for lots and lots of margaritas. Was good times! Now I am tipsy and heading to bed shortly.
