  • Ultimate Slacker

    My name is Lorie and I have neglected my blog. I’m hoping to come back with a fabulous entry so without further delay, here I go….

    Work has been crazy busy. I definitely miss my goof-off time where I can read, blog and comment on all of you lovely bloggers. I miss my beauty blog reading and usual fun times during the day. I try to read at night and no such luck most days. My mindless reality TV addiction kicks in and I find that harder to fight. Betheny, Jersey, Teen Mom anyone? I love my shows. I also love True Blood, The Real L Word, and whatever other shows I happen to catch. I’ve been seriously considering changing cable providers just so I can record more than 2 shows at a time. Hubs would probably prefer we just had more than 1 TV, but since we only live in a 1 bedroom, I do not want a TV in the bedroom. le sigh.

    My older brother is moving overseas. I keep telling myself he’s not my father, or anything like him, but this dream of working overseas was definitely something my Dad fulfilled around the same age. I’m so totally going to miss my niece/nephews if/when he goes.  I’ll definitely miss putting make-up on my niece. She’s such a good model, right?

    Crazy office boss is still driving me batty. If I could just tie her to her chair to make her sit down for 5 friggity minutes and work, I’d be happy. If anything, it’d keep her from marching into my office with a sticky note demanding an answer on something every 2 seconds. I just wish I could ask her 1 teensy little question every now and again w/o the usual freak out mode, brush off. I don’t come to her for anything, so when I do, I definitely expect more than what she’s been giving me lately. ugh!

    I’m seriously addicted to Bobo Fish lately. Must. Stop. Playing.

    I went to my first home buying seminar not too long ago. Budgeting/documenting/journaling stage right now. Seems like such an overwhelming journey.

    Going gambling with the family tomorrow. It’s my Lita’s bday and she does love to gamble. I’m always thankful for some mom/brother time.

    On the make-up front, I was playing again with some color contacts/red eye shadows. Here’s the look I came up with. I’ve always wanted to know what I’d look like with blue eyes. Let’s see shall we?

    Not sure if I like it, but it’s good for when I don’t want to look at my usual honey browns.

    The other day I was cruising around and took this next pic, black and white and all attitude.

    My co-worker’s bf reminds me of Dave Chapelle. Don’t believe me? Check him out.

    A couple weeks ago was a bday for one of my bestie’s. Of course we went out to celebrate. She’s so babealicious.

    IMAG0076

    She was even wearing a tiara that said Birthday Babe. LOL!

    Of course, being the chatty Kathy that I am, I met some random guy, who added me on facebook. His statuses are priceless. Things like, “I’m going for a run, where are my cheerleaders?” Hilarious!

    More of the attendees. This girl surprised me with her age. I still don’t believe it. She kept calling me sweetheart all night. Made her sound older….but she’s 25.

    Another lovely lady. I adore her. She is soo funny. You can tell in this pic.

    IMAG0067

    We went to the ladies not too long after this pic was taken and she got all mad (drunk mad, but mad). Her make up was not on point and she was mad we didn’t take her to the ladies sooner to fix it. LOL, my kind of girl, right?

    Shots, anyone? Not for the bday babe, she can’t handle it.

    My long nails. I miss them already. I had to cut them shorter. One cracked and I can’t have 9 gorgeous long nails w/1 stub.

    IMAG0064

    Lychee martinis oh how I miss thee.

    IMAG0061

    Another hot nail color on my nails. This color is shocking orange in person, but I love it.

    IMAG0060

    Another shiny make-up face. Love my falsies.

    Obviously need some lipstick, but it’s pics like this that make me so happy I don’t look 30.

  • you are not the only xanga slacker.  I have really been neglecting my xanga friends’ blogs and my own. 

  • I love it when you update! And yes, that guy totally looks like Dave Chapelle!  Where is your brother moving to? Is it at least somewhere cool to visit?

  • @X_naomi_X - Abu Dabi (sp?) Said he’s scheduled to move in less than 2 months. I miss my niece already. I’ll need to schedule some makeup sessions before she leaves.
