sabineIt's Friday. I got into work early, so I decided that I needed fancy coffee. I also decided to take a late morning break and put on some pretty nails. I chose my Dexter-inspired nail wraps (http://espionagecosmetics.com/nailed-it/killer.html) and they look pretty sweet.
I'm taking Emi to her first Girl Scout event on Sunday. A "Cookie Gala". With Dexter nails.
I have a small amount of hope that having weird nails will help with the anxiety that's naturally arising from a long drive, a gym full of small-big kids, lots of strangers, moms who are way cooler/thinner/prettier/stylish than me, and all the rest. Like, I'm already freaking out about this - it's going to take up pretty much our entire Sunday - even though I know that pre-worry isn't going to help at all.
I should just bite the bullet, swallow my pride, and go shopping for pants. I should have at least one pair of jeans that fits, no? That'd make me more like everyone else, instead of my current lower attire of lime-green striped socks and voluminous flannel skirt.
Blah. Random things time.
I'm almost done reading "Golden Son" by Pierce Brown. It just came out this month and is book 2 in the triology. It's as good as book 1 ("Red Rising"). I had to put it down for a bit last night because the main character got into a bad situation and I was too worried for him to keep reading.
I've also used the noise-cancelling feature of my headphones to good effect. I like the total quiet I get when wearing them. I don't hear my computer fan or the buzzing of my lights. I don't hear the several people in offices around me who are loud and on speaker. I can still hear my phone if it rings, but I am much more at peace than before. Of course, when I have 7 hours of calls and meetings, I don't get quiet/music time and I'm not at peace.
I got lots of little boy snuggles today. He got up early, came out to me, sat in my lap, and put his head on my shoulder. Still so sleepy and so snuggly.
Emi was in full-on bear mode this morning. She did NOT want to get out of bed. So tired. So refusing to go to bed earlier. So much like her momma.
I have a haircut next week. Hooray! No major changes, but I need things cleaned up. I need to re-dye anyway...maybe Saturday? Dunno.
I won't be going to the Tribaret workshop. I have an upgrade every weekend in March, so I need to stay close to home. Depending on the times of my upgrade that weekend, I may be able to go to the show with Emi. We'll see.
I got in super early, but won't get to leave super early. I have a meeting from 4 to 5 that I should really go to. Ugh. Tired Sabine. Anxious Sabine. Totally Done With All This Crap Sabine.
To end on a happy note, I can have a fancy crab cake sandwich for lunch. I'm looking forward to this. Also, I have Dexter nails.
