i'm pretty sure karma hates me....

i try to refrain from saying God hates me, because, even though sometimes i think he might, i know he doesn't. He loves me. But, i'm definitely sure karma hates me. Karma is a bitch. there are some things i have not gotten around to, and perhaps these are part of the cause of my bad karma karma karma chamelleon...

like, for instance, have i told you that i'm actually a fan of snail mail? not the utility bills and student loan bills and junk flyers and credit card offers that will never be approved even though they say i'm pre approved. no, i'm talking about cards and letters. my mimi and my ann taught me the importance of a hand written letter or thank you note at a very early age. so, imagine my delight when i got home a few days ago and there was a card in my mail! it took me by complete surprise, and i didn't recognize who it was from. i opened it, and it was a sweet sweet precious card from Hol&J, expressing their sympathy and encouragement for me, after the loss of my Nana. how wonderful is that? seriously, holly, it made me smile for days. i keep the card on my nightstand and read it everytime i start to feel down. thank you, friend.

also, my darling denise tagged me for a meme that hasn't been passed to me 32196513635 times. perhaps that's because she created it! anyway here is a list of my 10 guilty pleasures! ooooh fun!

  1. pedicures! once a month i get a wonderful pedicure from the queen of toez and it's my slice of heaven. you will never see me without cute toes!
  2. massages! i'm an addict. i lurve me some massages. if i ever win the lotto, i'm going to hire someone to follow me around all day and rub my shoulders and neck anytime i want them to. i'm a massage therapist and let me just say, massage therapy school was like a crack house feeding my addiction!
  3. facials! I don't get them often, but boy are they fantabulous when i do!
  4. purses! omg i am by no means a very girly girl, but i am obsessed with purses! i have a purse closet! i'm always buying new purses. it's a very scary habit.
  5. flip flops! i think i own somewhere around 43 pairs of flip flops. uh huh 43 pairs...
  6. traveling! i love love love to travel. i get anxious when i don't get to travel for a long time. like right now...my passport is calling my name and i can't do anything about it! aaaack!
  7. tanning. i know, i'm half black, but i still like to tan. i promise there are areas of my body that desperately need sunlight, whether it be artificial or the real stuff...
  8. $13 martinis. i didn't know they existed until recently. omg i wish i had never found it...cause DAMN it's good...but DAMN it's expensive!
  9. new cell phones. sad, i know. but i love love love getting a new cell phone. i don't go the cheap route, ever. when i'm eligible for an upgrade, i seriously UPGRADE. like next month? i'll be eligible for the BIG upgrade. can we sayyyyyyy PALM?!
  10. bakeries. oh lawsie mercy i love bakeries and baked goods. they make my heart happy.

i tag deb, mp, rimmy, and and and...vuboq

ok, so i don't really think me putting off the meme is part of my bad karma, but it couldn't hurt...right?

Thank you Biddy, you're a sweetheart! I'm glad you got the card, and that it made you smile.

Would you give me your expert advice on the best way to research and find a safe clean place to get a pedi?

I haven't had one in a long time.
