Monday, Monday, Monday. Hiked with Leigh, got my smoothie, and headed to school to pick up my work from last quarter. Found out that my presentation boards had been on display in Dina (the Interior Design chair)'s office! Lifelong goal #6648 complete! Stopped by Mood fabrics on the way home to get some fur (faux and a real fox tail) to make my fur vest. Got home and commenced construction on fur vest. NEVER attempt to make a fur vest. I must have swiffered my floor 50 times over the course of 3 hours. I thought it would be easy as pie (a silly analogy since pie isn't so easy) but when I got down to it, I realized I had zero idea what I was doing. But I decided to wing it... and i think i'm on the right track. I cut and sewed until 4:00 when I needed to call it quits because there was fur EVERYWHERE.
Tuesday
It's rare to have a day when it's appropriate to wear my 3/4 sleeve corduroy jacket. Today was one of those days. Chilly but not too cold. Worked all day, spent most of the day in the office which was rare, but nice! Went home, had dinner, opened my package from Planet Blue and realized they sent me the wrong shirt... so annoying! Did nothing to my hair and picked out a random outfit to wear to go out with Cameron... we were supposed to go to Palihouse, he was trying to change plans to Trousdale, I said i didnt want to go to a club, he told me to come over and we'd go somewhere on the west side. So i did. I get there, we sit in the dark listening to radiohead while drinking champagne out of plastic cups and perusing his myspace profile, and I prove to him that i indeed have had facebook since 2004. Matt came home, we tried to convince him to come out with us and gave him more love lessons (specifically that petting someone's face is NEVER attractive). Cameron somehow convinced me to go to Trousdale (i think it had something to do with him saying we'd only go for a bit and then go to the Chateau Marmont afterwards for dessert). So we went, I actually had a lot of fun, his friend introduced me to three "Torontonians" who were actually from Etobicoke and it was sooooo painfully obvious that they were 905 from the second I laid eyes on them! Cameron got mad at me for hating that they were 905 and saying that they were from Toronto... he just doesnt understand the dichotomy between 416 and 905! So we stayed at Trousdale until the bitter end, and then i got Chateau gypped. We ended up at some place on Beverly, but I must say, the grilled cheese was delicious! Was in bed by 4, woke up at 8 cause i'm crazy. Best part of the night: singing our hearts out to Rumors by Lindsay Lohan.
Wednesday
Lounged around, went to the Century City mall to study fur vest construction (i'm soooooooo on the right track!!!!!) and to look for a christmas present for my mom. Nothing yet. Then went to Hot Rod to make a video of all the shoes for Ry so he can tell me which ones he wants for Christmas. Cam and I walked to the pizza place to get 4:00 lunch and then I went running around on errands for tomorrow. First stop, Urth on Beverly. Called to order two slices of pumpkin pie for leigh and i for tomorrow... SOLD OUT! Called Melrose... SOLD OUT. Santa Monica.... obviously, sold out. I was devastated. We just decided that it was a sign that our pumpkin pie that we already have lined up will be good and we'll just make christmas cookies instead. Then i hit up Blockbuster to rent Christmas movies for our viewing pleasure - obviously Miracle on 34th Street was included and i'm really excited to watch it on actual American Thanksgiving! And this means i must make the "Christine & Courtney Hate Queen's Cookies!" Had dinner. Booked my flight home. Went over to Cam & Matt & Ben's and we all went to The Basement, which was terribly crowded and stuffy and clammy so we left, tried to go to the Viceroy but the bar was closed, came THISCLOSE to getting a room and having a sleepover, and decided to go to some other bar that i don't remember what it was called. Matt was up to his petting my face tricks again, and obviously ben and cam joined in. On the way home we had a Lady Gaga car dance party and planned our Holiday Kickoff Party! SO EXCITED.
