I Didn't Mean To...

Anyone else currently in a MonDAZE?! As in, Dazed and Confused and Really Wishing It Was The Weekend Again? Samesies, especially because I know I'll be chanting "IhatemylifeIhatemylifeIhatemylife" under my breath this whole week until I emerge from hell after my last final on Friday morning. Okay anyway, what I really wanted to talk to you about today was –

Things I Didn't Mean To Happen, But Did Anyway.

Exhibit A:

I didn't mean to ... escape to San Francisco the weekend before finals, but my sister needed a catsitter and that's an offer I cannot refuse. Literally. Cannot. Or else my mom would probably yell at me. Also, it's been our credo to escape the weekend before finals. Logical? No. Regretted ever? No...t really only sometimes maybe ...

Exhibits B – Some Other Letter Later On In The Alphabet:

I didn't mean to ... submit such a large order on a retail site, but I'm currently on the lookout for cute outfits "for Europe" (my latest excuse for everything) because I'll totally have so much room in my luggage and everything.
I didn't mean to ... order so many oysters, but my roommate and I have been craving them for SO long. A couple of weeks ago, we were driving all around Palo Alto trying to find a restaurant open at 11pm serving the dang suckers, but alas ... we had to wait. Until now.

I didn't mean to ... also get beer and chowdah on top of that and get really, really stuffed, but happy hours, man. It'd be rude-o to behave otherwise at Bar Crudo!

I didn't mean to ... stop for ice cream even as I felt my stomach combusting, but – it's BiRite ice cream.
I didn't mean to ... watch all of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt in all of two sittings. Beyonce!

I didn't mean to ... waste a good-outfit-good-hair day on a no makeup day, but two out of three is already one in a million.

I didn't mean to ... eat so many fistfuls of Sour Skittles. They're just so good when you overcome the tang! 
I didn't mean to ... drop another twenty bucks on a pedicure, but the window announced "Foot Massage" in flashing lights, and Massage is one letter away from Message, so I strongly believe it was a message from the universe for me to have my toes painted Barbie pink.

I didn't mean to ... favor stealing Biore nose strips from my sister's medicine cabinet and watching a few episodes of TV (see above) with wine in hand over going out to a bar. Trust me, my roommate and I literally walked to the bar, saw that contrary to popular belief there are people in a bar – people who socialize and flutter and laugh and are dressed nicely – and made a beeline back to the cats and Kimmy.

I didn't mean to ... catch a cold the week of finals, but the world is cruel unless I'm eating oysters and ice cream and getting my toes painted Barbie pink, and so the split second I took a break from all of that, wham bam the sniffles are here ma'am.
I didn't mean to ... take a nap immediately after downing a mocha from The Mill, but the living's tough, ya know what I mean?

I didn't mean to ... almost fall asleep writing this post, but HELLO NYQUIL BYE BLOG WORLD!

Happiest of Mondays to you, my friends!

  1. MonDaze---That's exactly the word for how I feel today. I have been in a weird time warp/funk ever since Daylight Savings Time started. I love the extra hours of light, but that's about it! Here's to fun weekends!!!!

  2. I definitely used "I need this for Europe" to justify all sorts of spending, so I support that logic. also those oysters look incredible + now I'm craving them, so thanks for that.....

  6. What is with colds appearing at literally the most inopportune times. Your weekend looks like it was fab (I've been craving a pedicure) but the sniffles are no fun. I also came down with a cold over the weekend and it is just making me so sad, I feel like I just got better from my last bout of sickness...I don't want the sniffles again already!

  8. If you are near BiRite you absolutely must stop in. It's pretty much mandatory!
