and we're back

I realized that I am using my facebook status updates as mini-blog posts and have decided that it might be better to simply start writing the blog again.

Here are the things that I have noticed lately:

Someone (not me) bought Palmolive dish soap and our kitchen now smells like the MSH 7th floor pump room.

I really missed having LEGO in my life and didn't even know it. There's something really therapeutic about just sitting and making something.

I can very easily fill my days not working.

I hate working with people who aren't competent. (Obviously this falls under my whole life philosophy that people, in general, are stupid but you'd think you would have to be mildly able to get the job in the first place.)

Bottled flavoured water is kind of creepy. Why not just drink juice?

The YSL Majorelle in Sahara and the Chanel 'sac rigide' in petite matelasse are some of the most gorgeous handbags I've seen for a while and I am lamenting that I can think of no reason to justify their homecoming.

Grocery shopping is more fun with the child in the cart looking and pointing at everything.

I think ROME was the best thing ever and I am very very sad that it was cancelled.

Our neighbours have gardeners, their back yard is 30 by 30. No wonder we can't afford to buy a house in this neighbourhood.
