We came into work today to find our team fish "Suishi" dead. It was very sad. He lived about 6 months, and fought the good fight, but I think our office might have been just a little too cold for him. Because he was a Beta fish, I composed a Haiku in his honor. 

farewell dear fish, thy

last bubbles leave air pockets

in my lonely heart.

 

In happy news, I participated in Gentri Lee's package pall party! My package pall was Brooke from Australia! I've always wanted to visit Australia but have never had the chance. Though I hear it can get a little warm. Justin and my romance actually all began during a video about Australia watched in geography class. 

Best class I ever took.

For more package pall fun:

More Mango...

the power of persuasion.

I am a such sucker for good advertising. And not so good advertising. basically any kind of advertising. And when I say advertising I of course mean food advertising. (That should go without say by now shouldn't it?) If I so much as see a remotely delicious looking advertisement, my mind starts shouting "GET IN MY BELLY".

Which is why last night I came home with a bag of "hearty delicious" hamburger buns and a box of donuts holes, that I neither planned, or needed, and then proceeded to Cafe Rio for a delicious sweet pork burrito.

Goal for next week: avoid food advertisements of any kind. My husband and wallet will be very grateful.

This top & jeans are both "challenge pieces" for me. I hadn't worn the top since purchase, because it was too big, but I actually love it belted and worn casually with these jeans! So are they "keepers" or should I "take out the trash?"
