Checking out recipes for my TumblrEatUp baking session this weekend
Last night we bought this year’s Christmas tree. Waking up this morning the house smelled so wonderful. Still deciding on a name. I think he might be a Dan or an Ian but Lauren vehemently disagrees. Jury’s still out, stay tuned.

The iTunes Store is quite un-user friendly.

Me: I'm going home for Thanksgiving.
Me: I'm so so so so so so excited.
Heather: Yeah I already know. I read your blog.
Heather: Anyways...
If we were in a meeting together, this would be your current view:
I am unshowered and sans makeup so yes you can judge me. I apparently have a slipper fetish.

Today it’s raining in San Diego which is practically an anomaly. I usually love when it rains, and sometimes even pray for hurricane like conditions, but I was planning on going to boot camp this morning so this scratches my plans. Instead I think I will clean this disgusting mess of a house this morning and then go shopping or see a movie. Do I dear brave the theater Harry Potter opening...
I am 99% sure Turtle is my one.

Oh wonderful, a reason to be less productive at work. Easily the best find of the day.
Dear Noah,
We could have sworn you said the ark wasn’t leaving till 5.

Dear Mary,
Just admit that you slept with someone else. This is getting out of hand.

This is my desk at work today:
Should we take bets on how many times I’ve been to the bathroom?
fun fact
Yelp is my online version of the bible.
My style is typically pretty Plain Jane - Gap, Target, H&M, ect and unless I have meetings or clients in town, I don’t really have to dress up for work (read: yoga pants are acceptable). I have a PA Tour today along with meeting a client for the first time so I actually had to get dressed this morning.
Head to toe:
Ann Taylor Loft dress
Zara boots
Hm, Clive Davis you say
Dad: I bought one of the best CDs I've ever purchased yesterday.
Jo: What is it?
Dad: No seriously, you have to go out this weekend and buy it.
Jo: Lets have it.
Dad: You have to get it. It's so good that I'll reimburse you if you don't like. Which will never happen.
Jo: Out with it!
Dad: Adam Lambert.
Jo: ...silence...

WOGGE* is Four Loko?
*What on God’s Green Earth
I can't stand
when you dog sit for people (overnight) and they don’t get you a thank you gift.
Yes your dog is a pain in the ass and you only think he’s the easiest dog on Earth because he’s your dog. No I do not enjoy waking up at 5:45am to pick up his poop. Yes I was going to gouge my eyes out when he tried to climb in bed with me every half an hour. No I don’t hate you for leaving...
Found this awesome site, Wordle.net, where you can input words, whether it be a blog you like, a poem, or in my case favorite song and then the text is automatically formatted to look pretty. And if you’re feeling creative, you’re able to change the font, pattern and color to your liking.
Ten points to the person who can guess what song this is.
Last night I had the world’s most vivid dream that a boy whom I find mucho attractive came out with me and bunch of my friends. We went to various bars, gallivanting around the streets, not of San Diego, but of Long Island eating lots of Mexican food and slow dancing to Frank Sinatra. Said boy was being really cryptic throughout the night and kept making me piggy-back him. Creeper. After all...
Have yourself a merry little...
Just ordered this* for my mama for Christmas! My Tumblr dashboard has practically done all my Christmas shopping for me this year - thanks guys!
*Chick reads my blog, you didn’t think I was going to actually give it away did you? Just know that it’s AMAZING.

I have a sick obsession with buying Groupons and then forgetting to use them before they expire.

Spur of the moment decision
I decided to fly home for Thanksgiving!
I didn’t realize how excited I would be until the moment I clicked “book”. Haven’t been in Boston for a turkey day for the past two years and I am so so excited to see my family and friends and eat!
World's Best Snack
I could eat this for every meal for the rest of my life times 10,000. It is to die for and I usually have it at night as an appetizer while I’m cooking.
Trader Joe’s Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
Edward & Son’s Organic Vegetable Brown Rice Snaps
Cute blonde on adjacent mat,
While I do really appreciate the proximity, resulting in double time on the abs portion of tonight’s class, mere boxer briefs are absolutely not yoga-appropriate attire.
Namaste,
Joanna

Taylor Swift Reveals Song Subjects In Hidden... →
jesssica:
Which song(s) on Speak Now are about John Mayer? Who does she miss more: Joe Jonas or Taylor Lautner? What secret crush was never realized for our girl? The answers to all these questions and more…
C’mon. I know I’m not the only one who will eat this up.
Could not love Taylor Swift anymore than I do at this moment.

I have never watched or read a Harry Potter anything.
I would describe myself as a great gift giver. I love to give good presents and literally Christmas shop all year long. I just stumbled across these amazing print designs from SwissCottageDesigns. I love love love super personal gifts and I think this might be my new mecca. The pieces are really different and creative and are giving me really good ideas!
