Part of the reason I haven't been writing very much lately (besides all the Holiday traveling - which was FABulous by the way) is because I have so many decisions to make right now...
My lease is up on my apartment in one month - should I stay or should I go?
What will be my New Year's Resolution
Should I just drop Logan? I'm sick of waiting, but he's so amazing.
Should I go back into school? Take the GRE? Go get my Master's?
Where should I plan my spring vacation to?
How should I redesign my bedroom?
Now... here's the biggest issue... Marco still hasn't found a job yet. He still owes me a little for this month's rent and I know he won't have it for January. His flight attendant friend AND HER BEAU have been using my living room as a "crash pad" for a little too long. I know she's not there very much, but her man is. I like them both, but NONE of them are giving me anything (besides free airfare to Sundance, but I mean, she get's it free anyways.) The gas is up, the electricity is up, and my food... is gone...
Should they be just as gone as my apple berry cobbler ? I can't just kick Marco out. That's rude, plus I'd have to pay his part of the rent anyway, my logic is maybe he will find a new job... hopefully soon.

The Ultimate Green Christmas Luxuries...
Get the sparkle of diamonds without the guilt by purchasing eco-friendly, conflict-free lab-grown diamonds. These man-made diamonds are actually pretty rare, as only a handful of gem-quality diamonds are grown each month. No giant pits in the earth, no slave labor. This set of Ritani ‘Endless Love’ lab-grown diamond stud earrings feature .67 carat fancy blue diamonds surrounded by .15 carat white micro-pave diamonds set in platinum for $5,160.
For the green millionaire who has everything, perhaps a parcel of land that you can turn into a nature preserve is just the thing you need this year. Follow in Leo DiCaprio’s footsteps by purchasing a private island with the intent of turning it into an ecotourism destination – Blackadore Cay in Belize only cost $1.75 million. Or, you could buy a few hundred thousand acres of rainforest and either manage it yourself or gift it to the country’s government for use as a national park.
The world’s most expensive television is available to you for just $130,000, and the good news is, its glass, aluminum and iron components are all either biodegradable or reusable. The bad news is, it doesn’t seem to use any less power than a normal television. But, hey, it’s studded with brilliant white V VS1 diamonds and white gold, such an important feature to have on a television. When you’re done with this luxury TV by Shaub Lorenz, you can strip it down and have them made into a necklace or something. It’s entirely handmade and has a 40-inch LCD display.12.19.2008

Office Holiday Luncheon Outfit?
I am racking my brain trying to figure out what to wear to my office Holiday Luncheon tomorrow! This is insane, I'm the one that everyone always asks what to wear or how to do their hair. Uggh... I don't want to just wear something regular, but I don't want to look like I tried too hard. Any suggestions?

Back In The Windy City...
...AND DAMN DOES IT FEEL GOOD!!!
I love going back to my hometowns and this time it was no exception, but last night when I walked into the door of my lovely little garden apartment, I truly felt like I was at home. It was a great adventure, but it really felt good to get back into the swing of things this morning (who knows, maybe I'm just getting really old.)
So re-cap on the weekend's goals...
1.) I totally wore the CUTEST outfit to dinner ever. It was classy and smashing rolled into one, a very chic knit skirt, a cript white button up underneath a gorgeous light weight sweater.
2.)I did suprisingly little shopping, and had a fantastic Friday night at the bar.
3.) Definitly Waxed
4.) I didn't make anything this year... oops!
5.) I did not "get together" at all really... I hooked up with the painter for a few hours on Thursday night, I hung out with the Not-So-New-Guy, aka the painter. He was a serious conversationalist and wasn't so sure if he was into me until I was driving home and he asked me about a thousand times if I really liked him or not... it was so irritating. Then on Friday I went out with my sister and we met up with my high school homeboy, Mr. English Professor (he is one, wasn't mine, ha!) We had a great time and the drunker I got, the bitchier I got and ended up telling him he was pretentious. Oops... anyway, we still made out. It was fun, well except for the past about being in my sisters car (and no, SHE WAS NOT IN IT.)
6.) I SPENT LOADS OF TIME WITH MY WONDERFUL SISTER, who is truly amazing.
7.) I got a fantastic Christmas tree and tons of vintage ornaments from my Grams, AND she bought me the SWANKIEST lamps ever! Doubles, how convienient for my bedside tables, eh?
8.) Didn't get to see anything but pictures of my niece. Baby Mamma Drama. Eww.
9.) I slept... and slept... but nothing was like coming home to my down matress and 1,000 thread count Pima Cotton sheets... mmmm!
All in all, it was a good trip. Except for the part(s) that had no Logan. He was M.I.A. I didn't talk to him once, no one even knew where he was, it's a shame really. Until next time I suppose. That will give me some more time to get my game face on. I wish sometimes that he was some kind of super jerk. You know, just awful, a real asshole. Then I could move on... but he isn't. He's just a super sweet, amazing-in-the-sack, truly special man. Maybe I just need someone new to take my mind off of him... You never know what just might happen ; )
Ciao!
