While at the nail salon with Michelle last weekend, I picked up an old Oprah magazine. There was an article about perfume inside, and it mentioned that Thierry Mugler had a new scent out, called Alien. He made Angel, too, which is my favorite! I didn’t discover Angel til 2003, but no matter

I got a sample of Alien yesterday and OMG…I LOVE it! Zoot, you’d probably like it too, one of the main components is Jasmine.

My question is, have any of you seen this? Macy’s doesn’t carry it, neither does Lord & Taylor. Guess I’ll have to head out to Chestnut Hill…

Thirteen Things that are on my mind lately

1. daisies: I’m not sure why, maybe because my secret blogger liked them and I tried to design her gifts around them.
2. photography: what lenses should I have, what flash should I buy (think I figured that out today), what lighting setup should I have, etc., etc., on and on and on. If anyone would care to mentor me, please do!
3. mortality. D’uh.
4. Now that it’s stopped raining, the bees are back. I HATE the bees!
5. martinis!
6. Friendship.
7. Invasion: Why wasn’t it renewed? Whhhhhhhhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy???
8. Seeing the girls this weekend, i.e., back to NY (upstate, but not as far upstate as last time lol)
9. Office politics. Oh wait, that comes under work, doesn’t it…oh well, sue me…or don’t, mmmkay?
10. Why do some women have a need to criticize other women in order to make themselves feel better? I’ve critisized to be snarky or funny…but not to make myself feel better.
11. I learned something today that partially solves something I’ve been wondering about for awhile (sorry to be so obtuse, but I’m writing a post on this in the near future).
12. I have a Leo friend that I’m worried about and I found out today that this can be a tough time for her: “everyone with Leo Sun, Leo Ascendant/Rising Sign, Leo Moon or a strong Leo signature in their chart is really being being put to the test regarding their relationships. It is their chance to change and grow … OR to refuse to take on the growth lessons they need and stay stuck or get left behind or cut out anyone and anything that reminds them of the lesson they don’t really want to deal with.”
13. When will I get to visit Paris, Hawaii, Scotland and most of all Japan, again?
