Cashews and Kumquats!

lemme seee...... what new and fab things are happening in my life??? Got a facial yesterday- the first time ever... and odd, I hated it... I know most women like the whole prim and pampering thing, but I really am a get dressed and go type of girl, would rather get muddy than bubbly, and would rather get down and dirty than cuddle... I know I am an odd creature... During the whole facial event, I think the woman told me to unclench my jaw like 7 times, as I do not enjoy people I don't want to fuck all touching on me... I don't know if that makes me sound slutty or frigid.. I just don't like people all massaging my face... yuck, and creepy. Why the facial then you ask... it was my odd step father's attempt for my mother and I to have some bonding time- something we both resist at all costs... why? we are very different creatures... we haven't bonded yet, it ain't gonna happen over a spa day... we tried some shopping after, it was a bust, she said she needed work clothes... I took all my Tim Gunn advice and What not to Wear philosophy's and stock piled her dressing room with things that honestly looked great on her... but she hated them all, and finally bought a blazer and a shirt just to shut me up... blah... Took along Marisa who was a great compadre in the macob of mother daughter fake bonding... love my lil monkey, she see's my angst and makes it all better... During the facial she reached out and held my hand, she said my toes were clenched in my lil leopard skin ballet slippers.... love my shoes, can you tell??? and my Marisa is truly my best friend in the world.. I am thankful that she and I have that bond... I missed that growing up, I ever soo glad history does not indeed need repeat itself...

ummmm, going to start my certification process to teach Body Pump in January.. I finally got the balls to talk to instructors and the head of gym, to say I would love to be an instructor, and surprise (big ass surprise) to me, they were very supportive, in fact excited that I want to... I am gonna be sooo fierce, gonna scream at everyone... and have already decided that tube socks and pig tails will be my trade mark... yup, gonna be soooo cute.... and obnoxious...

Not much else, the purple carpet looks ever soooo gorgeous and I am knee deep in painting.. pretty mocha and a white.. I will post pics soon..... ok, maybe now....

went to see The Mist- which is odd, and scary and disturbing, but yes, see it.... my date said that in a mob mentality, I would most likely be the first to be sacrificed???? He is an odd boy... I turned and looked at him, raised eyebrow, and asked why??? he said, "cuz you are annoying... I like you and all, I think you are cool, but I get the impression most people just find you annoying, so yeah, you would soooo be sacrificed..." fucker... what the hell?? and he wonder why I get mad at him....
