penniless and broke
I don't know about you, but I love reading books such as Shopaholic, Nanny Diaries, and Bridget Jones's Diary. It's the classic girl-next-door turned career gal, with the usual confusion and anxieties most women have about both their work and personal lives.That said, I should totally write a book on tutoring because there're just so many hilarious things I can come up with that actually happened. I'm trying to convince Jenny to collaborate on it with me, and together maybe we'll write a bestseller. Unfortunately, neither of us feel like we have enough "life experience" to write a novel, and my attention span doesn't exactly allow me to write more than a page at a time.
Also, I've decided on my signature look: jeans with a black top.
Two reasons: 1. I feel most confident in a nice pair of flattering denim, and a top that doesn't scream out for attention.
2. Most of my tops ARE black, and if I can convince myself this is really "my thing," I won't be as tempted to go shopping.
I really can't afford to go shopping anymore. It just isn't working out. I completely violated my Short Hills every 6 months deal to go shopping for father's day, but I have to say--I picked out a damn good gift.
"Cars" was a good movie, but only if you don't compare it to "The Incredibles." It's not the typical DisneyPixar comedy cartoon, but the characters were developed well, and the story's not bad either. Karl and I went on opening day, and I realized how much I enjoyed watching kids' movies with a bunch of giggling children sitting all around us. It's comforting to know that I haven't really outgrown myself yet.
The summer's going by too quickly; I can feel it already, even though I'm not really doing anything. I bought The Bell Jar, and once I finish it, I'll have completed my goal for the summer.

Yes! This summer IS going by too quickly. I was at the gym for 1 1/2 hours today, and if I'm going to lose all the weight I gained, I'm going to need an extra two months added on to this "summer".
I'm trying not to shop also.
And P.S., your signature look can be spruced up with a flashy or classy bag. Or flats. oooh flats.
