A Perfect Day

In just a few minutes, some friends will be coming over for some drinks and fun.
I just
spent a few hours playing my newly acquired PS2 game, God of War II.


I purchased said game at the mall this morning. Where I also got some lovely cosmetics (Smashbox Photo op undereye brightener and "Dusk" Bronzer. I don't usually buy the premium cosmetics, but I am hoping these are worth their cost. I'll let you know.)

I also acquired, on my trip to the mall this morning a cropped black cardigan (like the one pictured but iwth 3/4 sleeves), a great tiffany-blue pintucked blouse, and a wicked pair of trouser-cut jeans with a fat cuff on the bottom (the ones pictured below, although I am not as reed-like as the model the blouse is on. They are the trouser cut jeans of my dreams. I finally found them. I love Ricki's. Also scored an awesome wide belt.

Oh, and while at the mall, I got my eyebrows done. Also scored some free schwag from a friend that works at the bodyshop. So, yes, basically it was the perfect day.

And, as I was sitting on the couch, bloodily dispatching barbarian lords and cyclopses (cyclopsi?), it occurred to me that, once we have a baby (fingers crossed) there won't be (m)any more days like this. So, even though I bemoan our inability to knocked up good and quick, I am going to cherish these days while I have them. At this point, I still feel like I wouldn't mind trading the shopping and mindless video games for baby-clothes laundry, breastfeeding, holding and playing with my child, but the realist inside me forces me to face the fact that it might get old. There may be days where I wish that I just had the time to sit on my ass and do nothing, and when that time comes, I am going to try and remember what it felt like to just wish that I had a baby to hold.
