blah, blah, blog

okay so matilda is doing fine with the school thing. she still has the look of fear in her eyes, but each day we get better and better. tomorrow, HIM will take her to school so i've instructed HIM on our routine. (which technically was a GOOD thing, but i wish i had let HIM figure stuff out on his own) - live and learn right?

that being said... on to an update on ME! i cut my hair. it's now about an inch and a half above my shoulders and when i have enough time to flat iron my entire head of hair... it looks pretty darn groovy. flat, smooth and groovy. when i DON'T have the time, which is most often the case, I make it work for me by styling it a bit loose and touseled. i dono - it works for hollywood types.

i've got another girls' night out tomorrow night. another birthday party outing. this time, not much different from that last outing with the gals, we're going to a bar and then will 'hang out' at a club for the rest of the night. hmmmm see - doesn't sound like my cup of tea, but then again - what else am i gonna do? beats watching HGTV at my parent's house right? i get more stressed trying to figure out what to wear. maybe i'll don my cute and casual black dress and sandals. it's casual but with a basic black dress feel. plus, it shows off 'the girls' and that's usually a good thing.

last night i was sucked into the dramatic finale to 'so you think you can dance'. and i was actually rooting for one of the final two competitors. the one i liked won, so that was a good thing but i now question my tv sensibility. i watch the LAST episode? maybe that's the key to everything. they do recaps for an hour so you get to see the good stuff and see who wins - all in a 2 hour program. once it was over, matilda and i started reading a book we'd be TRYING to read for the last week... she fell asleep halfway thru it and i saw no point in finishing 'emily's first 100 days of school' without her.

so.... that's the most up to date events going on with me. tonight, i will be alone. to do what i want - which will be to clean. yes. matilda has decided to drag out EVERYTHING from her closet INTO the living room. quilts, baby clothes, dolls, old cell phones, games - you name it, it's in the living room. she did help me pick up some thing last night, but there's still more to do. tomorrow i'll vacuum. doesn't THAT sound fun!
