I know - I'm random

Again, my time is short (yet sweet!) so this will consist of random thoughts.  Enjoy!

• I have noticed more and more in the last few months that my dark circles under my eyes have gotten darker and darker.  Sure, thanks to makeup, I'm able to cover it up but in the mornings when I'm at the gym and I catch a glimpse of myself, I'm almost positive that I look like I was severely punched at night in the eyes.  Any good suggestions on how to make it better?  And yes, I sleep a good amount and drink a TON of water each day.
• Tonight, there is a serious reality showdown and I don't know what to do.  My DVR can only record two episodes at a time, but tonight Biggest Loser, American Idol, AND Big Brother are all on at the same time.  Yes, I'm aware these are all lame reality shows but what's a girl to do?
• The STRIKE is so close to over, it's like we're salivating here in LA.  In fact, in my mind it IS over and that makes me super excited and freaked out all at the same time.  But, YAY!
• I cut my hair.  Like, a lot of it.  It used to be fairly long but now sits somewhere between my chin and shoulders.  And to my surprise, C doesn't hate it like I was sure he would!  What is it with guys and long hair, anyway??
• C is back, and I am proud to admit that I couldn't be happier.  Sure, his shit laying around the apartment still drives me nuts but yay to waking up next to the one you love!
• Speaking of, C and I looked at a ton of houses over the weekend - to BUY.  Not sure where this came up, but I think we've recently been getting very sick of paying high rent and not actually owning anything, so we casually started to look.  I = Could NOT be more excited.  But, um, prices in LA are INSANE and totally out of reach... but isn't the market becoming more and more a buyer's market lately?
• Valentine's Day is fast approaching and C and I already decided that we are staying in on Thursday, just cooking something yummy, and then going out to a fun dinner over the weekend.  I mean, who needs to pay an arm and a leg for a pre-fixed menu - especially when I hear that all the food is made much earlier in the day for fast turnarounds.  Bleh!

Yay for the return of C... and buying a house? Excitement!!

I wish I knew what to do about undereye circles. I have that problem too and I swear they're getting worse.

Also, I want to cut my hair too and have the same problem in that Torsten likes long hair better, even though he acknowledges that my hair looks better in and of itself and also suits me better short. I'm going to go ahead and cut it anyway, I think.

Dark circles, same here. I always take it to mean I'm getting older. Blah.

I bet you are so excited about looking at houses - I peruse the internet daily for houses I know I'm not even close to buying. So exciting for you guys, and a ring can't be too far off!

So exciting about the house hunting - good luck! I'd be so excited to decorate and organize and all of that fun stuff - even though that's not in the immediate future. So fun! I was just commenting because I just wrote about the overpriced mediocre prix-fixes on Valentine's Day and how they are completely overrated - yay for staying in and cooking something delicious! Happy Valentine's week!

Hi, um, I'm going to need to see some pictures.

:)

[katelin]

Your Valentine's sound just like mine, staying in cooking and hanging out. We're saving a dinner date for the weekend, hopefully it won't be as crazy then.

And yay for the strike coming to an end, I can only imagine how excited you are :)

House buying...so exciting! California prices...definitely not exciting.

[Bhanu]

What I didn't know they did that? I figure the smaller "ma & pa" places would cook for me/us! *sigh*

[libby]

i would totally choose a night in anyday too! have a great time!

[QueenBee]

Ew! They cook the food early? That's just...really making me not want to go out. YaY! For buying a house. You are soo where I wanna be! :-D

[Miriam]

I am so glad the strike is over! Yay! And I really don't have any tips for the eye circles. Mines come from rubbing my eyes, a lot. I just cover them up :)

[cdp]

I concur with La on the pictures. Need new hair illustration please. thx.

Also I am noticing the same thing with the under-eye circles. wtf? We are too young and faboo for this, seriously. not. cool.

[Princess Extraordinaire]

I am so happy that the strinke is almost over!Yay!

[Andrea]

Amen to staying in! Hubs and I rented some movies and I am going to cook his favorite... Lobster Risotto. It should be a good, relaxing (cheap) night :D

[Michelle & the City]

we're staying in for V-day too. going out is so overrated when you have to pay four times the normal price!

[Hope]

Happy Valentine's Day! So happy that C is back.

Also, the strike better be over soon. I'm starting to have withdrawal symptoms! Bring back all my shows, please!
