Oh, hey.


I didn't intentionally go missing for the past week and change, but as we all know, sometimes life happens.  This time, the happenings were:

++ Four days in Las Vegas working one of the Fashion Industry's biggest trade shows of the year.  (Disclaimer: Fashion is not a glamorous world, no matter what you saw on "The Hills".  And on that note, Whitney Port was, like, everyyywhere that I went in Vegas.  I could not escape her and her one-man-film-crew.  Does she have a new show or something that I haven't heard of?  I couldn't figure out why she was still being filmed...someone please fill me in.)

++ I aged.  Like officially, I had a birthday.  I turned 26.  It's really the first milestone that made my heard jerk back and forth a little bit and go, "Errrr?"  (Think Tim Taylor from Home Improvement.)  I mean, really, how the hell did I get to this point already?  

++ And the real ring-dinger as to my silence:  I broke my laptop.  Mhm.  I dropped my dear, sweet, fairly new (four months old?) laptop two weeks ago, and I cracked a little part off near where the charger plugs into the device.  All was fine until I got home from Vegas, tried to plug in to charge, and the laptop wouldn't take charge.  After a failed trip to Best Buy (with my warranty, they cited a two week turn-around...no can do, my friends.  I rely on this puppy to get my grown-up work done every day.), I finally found a local guy who got it taken care of in 48 hours.  Ka-ching.

So voila, here I am - post-Vegas, now 26, and with a laptop that feels brand new.  Back and older better than ever.

xoxo.

Happy Birthday! :D

and LOL @ Whitney Port post. I never bought into "The Hills". I wondered how much of the stuff they really "designed" anyways.

Ha, my laptop died when I turned 25, so you're so much better off...haha! And I cannot fill you in on Whitney. Didn't even know she still "existed". Yeah...go figure. I'm getting older.

Happy weekend.
