11.27.10 Post Black Friday

This is what I forgot I meant to do Post Black Friday. Meet Apolo Ohno. I didn't get home till two last night after watching Harry Potter (it was a good one), and eat Pad Thai. My phone was dead all night and by the time I got home to charge it, I noticed my friend Rosalie had sent me a text about this morning and leaving early. I totally forgot. I don't really care for Apolo Ohno, and I was only really there for my friend. But boy, do I get starstruck, it's ridiculous. This a-polled me (hah, pun intended). hehe. No, but really, I had to hand my camera to this lady who was supposed to take my picture, and can you believe how this came out? And I was following rules and so the only thing I said to him was, "hi.." and it wasn't even a good Hi, it was a creepy hi. He was at the Warwick's bookstore for his book Zero Regrets, and I already had it in mind. That I would say, "Hi, I'm Aileen," but no.."hi..," in a drooly, hi, don't touch my hand right now, because it's clammy, came out instead. And to which, he didn't even shake anybody's hand.

I really didn't go Black Friday shopping, and only bought one Christmas gift that I purchased online. Instead, I was on a trek for cheap dog beds. I thought Marukai would have them for 2 bucks, but no, they were roughly the same price as anywhere else. Because I drove all that way, I picked up some stationary. My seafoam green stapler was something I've always had, and it was perfect that they carried colorful staples in the perfect size as my own. Picked that up, and a stack of blank postcards for Thank You's. I must also admit..... and it's kind of crazy. I don't know what made me get it. I felt I just needed it. If anything, if I don't use it, I'll probably give it away. Not pictured is another Dariya Hair Clip Tape in Black. The beauty related items I picked up were two necklaces: a chain on clearance from Kohl's, and a bow on clearance from Anthropologie. I've been really into Solid perfumes lately and was looking in the clearance section at the ones they had, and they didn't smell so great. So I was stumbling upon their beauty area, spritzed some Classic Petal fragrance on me, and found more solid perfumes. The one I picked up is actually called a fragrance pencil, but it was one I tested and found so easy to apply, and the smell sold me. This one in particular reminded of a mix of Gardenia's and Jasmine. It's a familiar smell that I cannot remember, but I knew I'd miss it, being without it. So I bought it, and now I still smell it on my wrists since early this morning.

This morning when I was at the bookstore, my friend got her book signed before me, and so while I waited, I picked up this awesome nail brush for 1.50. It reminded me of my friend from school who carried a nailbrush with a pig on it, instead of a hedgehog. I can't wait to meet her soon and show her the brush I picked up.
