oooohhhh baby lips!

look at those. i mean LOOK at them! like little pin cusions! and the cheeks! cute overload.

so. that's my niece and God daughter. her name is Gianna. she is my sister's (dina) daughter. she just recently turned two. she also just recently took a nap on my parent's bed where she unknowingly posed for a photo shoot.

uhm. i've abruptly become bored of this blogging business for now.
and i'd rather do my italian homework.

so bye.

who would want to be such a control freak?

it's frosty down here like a jersey girls side ponytail.

wut

so. no porno party as it turned out.
tommy felt poopish. under the weather? having to poop? feeling moody?
take it as you will...
but anyway. i was disappointed but i didn't want him to push himself if he wasn't feeling well/had to poop/feeling moody.

i have made the last purchases i will be making for a while. i have flagged myself! cut myself off!
it's time i gained some control over myself.
i'll do it for lent. along with having given up soda, laziness, and being messy. so add "no frivolous spending" to the list.
yikes!
it's an erin overhaul!
so anyway. i now have a new pair of SNEAKS and a watch.
i guess i didn't really need the watch. but the one i had was all scratched up and the band was white leather... WAS white. now it's all dingy and i can't get a new one. so all i have is a watch face and a dirty old band. anyway. look at me trying to rationalize a purchase i know i shouldnt have made.
plus the watch counter dood was ignoring me like i was some dumb young girl who wasn't planning on buying anything.
so i said BANT! i bought it FUCKER!
judgemental piece of shit.
he asked all the crispy rich old-bag ladies if they needed help first. but they weren't planning on spending hubby's money today so he was out of luck.
so whee shiny watch.

now NO MORE BUYING!

ok.

so. tonight starts gym days for jasmine and me.
"ERIN AND JASMINE starring in...
GYM DAZE"

i can tell you one thing, my ass is gonna kill tomorrow. i mean hurt. cause of exercise. glutes.
ew. worst word in the english language "gluteous"

i'm yawning. i cant yawn YET!
erin needs some serious "get in shape" time.

ooh ooh! tonight is a tommy night!
mmm... tommy night...

what a difference a daaay maaakes!

ok. let it be known that i am not a despicable girlfriend. my blog photo is probably familiar to anyone who reads tommy's blog. i didn't cut tommy out of the picture. that was his doing.
anyway.

so it's 11:20 and here i sit blogging because i'm too lazy to go upstairs and get my day started. but i swear that once my blog is finished i am going straight upstairs to put together my stuff for "porno night" and get ready for work.
well what's new. let's see.
jasmine and i have decided to start going to the gym a few days a week. so since i'm not a gym person, i owned nothing to work out in. uh oh! so yesterday i had an all out war with gym pants, and garments of the like. i managed to purchase ONE pair of pants after going to 4 different stores. now, why was this so hard for me? i really couldn't tell you. i wasn't too happy yesterday even with the ones i bought but they're growing on me. i'm much more used to seeing my body (especially my lower half) in pants that hide stuff. like jeans. so putting on pants that are a little less forgiving didn't sit too well with me.
i might just be crazy and a little too hard on myself but oh well.
they don't look so bad when i'm sitting and my ass is hidden! score!

after all my toil, i went to tommys house. and we went to get him something to wear for porn party tonight. i won't disclose our porno personas just yet, but you can be sure there will be pictures.
then we rented the terminal, which i loved. :)

excuse me i just payed bills for the last 20 minutes.

anyway.
my time is slipping by too quickly. i only have 2 1/2 hours before i have to leave for work.
GAH!

have you been bad?

valentines day is by far the worst commercialized holiday to ever hit the calendar...
well, if you work at a florist, that is.
which i do. so it's not surprising that i wasn't exactly enthusiastic about the 14th when i had been experiencing valentine related flower-hell since the 10th.
i felt bad that i seemed really uncaring about the whole holiday to tommy. i was just so completely innundated with it for a week.
but the 14th was enjoyable once work was over. tommy came over around 8. he brought me flowers - tulips, hydrangea and dendrobium orchids :) lindt chocolate (drool) and tickets to see jimmy eat world and taking back sunday! i made tommy a photoalbum. with my two little bare hands. martyr. i was worried he might not like it cause i have a complex and i always think people won't like what i do for/make for/give them.
so we decided we couldn't just sit home on valentines day (cause we kind of dragged our asses on making any plans) so we went to Triumph in princeton, which just happens to be where our first date was :) AND it was our three month marker. whee!
aren't we all cute and squeaky new?
i know.

bah.
so one day at work during some down time, my co worker amy and i went a little cuckoo and created the next sensation to sweep the plush nation - VASE PETS!

we managed to shove pigs, turtles and even elephants into vases!





it's strange, i know, but i'll tell you one thing - the elephant didn't see it coming.



SO.
on friday, tommy and i are going to his friend andy's party.
apparently all of andy's parties are themed and you're sopposed to dress up. so this one is the porn party.
and you're supposed to go dressed as a "porn personality" like a guy would go as a pool boy, delivery boy etc.
i am going as a librarian. i think i can pull off the stern "return your books or else" look. or else i'll pull my bun out, throw my glasses across to the fiction section and take advantage of you on the card catalogs.
hm.
anyway.
i told tommy he should be the milk man. and i can screenprint a saying on the back of his white button-down, like "Mickelsen's Milk - Guaranteed delivery day and night!" and people will think hey, what milk man delivers at night? the one starring in "milk menagétoi" that's who.
yikes.

i just ate my second cannoli of the day. pastry queen of the east coast.

so. that's really it for today.
see you in another two weeks.
