Not to rub it in your face, worker bees, but I am on VACATION this week and I FUCKING LOVE IT. Today, in particular, was all loveliness and sunshine. I'm tempted to never show up to work again and see how long it takes them to stop paying me. (That would probably take about three days, actually, since I usually run the payroll.)
I got up sorta early (9am) considering I worked my intern shift the night before, but I thought I'd be meeting a potential subletter. Turns out I had my days mixed up - whoops - so I instead used the time to send out four job resumes and speed through some of my email. Yay productivity!
I had to go into Manhattan for an appointment and with all the sun and the green and the flowering things I couldn't possibly go right back on the train. So I wandered myself into Barnes and Noble to peruse things I shouldn't buy. Good call, because I found this on the bargain shelf for $5.95:
YESSS! This has been on my to-buy list forever, but I was always too cheap to shell out the whole entire list price fee of $28 (times is tough, yo). Now that I have it my hot little hands all I want to do is become a professional wackadoo party host. Why isn't that job on Craigslist??
After more wandering in the beautiful sunshine, I came home and made myself a real lunch! With fresh fruits and vegetables! Which I didn't have to eat at a sad desk! Amazing.
Then I dashed to dance class and HOLY CRAP. Not only did we dance to Janet, but it was the teacher's assistant's birthday so they brought her a cake and we all got giant slices of Magnolia red velvet cake after class! For real!!
And it had normal vanilla frosting and not cream cheese frosting which is what always ruins a good red velvet and ohmygod CAKE!!! It felt wrong to sit and eat cake after sweating for 90 minutes but still... mindblowing.
Now I'm winding down with tequila and L.A. Ink (these people are fascinating) and I have big plans to watch the end of Ugly Betty Season 4 and paint my nails with this fancy nail art pen.
PLANS, y'all!!
Just so you know I'm not entirely roses and unicorns, I did pull a neck muscle in dance class and I don't know how I'll ever turn my head to the left ever again. But still! Who needs turn their head when there's Amy Sedaris and tequila!
I almost don't want to go to sleep tonight for fear that karma will fuck me over and tomorrow will suck.

what's your beef with cream cheese frosting? weirdo.
GROSS. I want the straight-up sugar, no cheese. It's a waste of frosting space.
I wonder if I can convince my teacher to have cake after class.... I think I'll have to make up a holiday though....
Yeah, it was definitely just one lucky instance. And she made us work extra hard, saying "you gotta EARN that cake." And oh I did.
