SIDENOTE: looking good and looking forward ...

Holy last week in July!  When.did.that.happen.  It's been an awfully busy few weeks ... and I'm trying to stay positive and look ahead to the millions of things coming up.

• I am always grateful to one of my male coworkers who continuously tells me my dress or skirt is adorable, whimsical, fabulous, or just princess fairy-ish (isn't he the best? I wish I knew his name!). Or one of my female coworkers who told me yesterday she'd "get on it".
• Yesterday on my walk to work the construction workers were quiet and the doormen weren't paying me much attention.   I decided my outfit made me look fat and promised to try harder the next day.  So today (with total success) I got creeped on and hollered at.  I then found myself visibly annoyed that they would treat a woman like that.
• Tonight I'm headed out to Forrest Hills - located just outside of New York City in Queens. I'm pretty sure I won't need my passport, but I am prepared for dinner at the most amazing pizzeria.  At Dees the artichokes taste like Big Macs (coincidence, I think not). I'm lovin' it.
• Another best friend booked a plane ticket to Alabama and with just a little over a month to go.  Six of us gals are headed down South to join the remaining hundreds of Penn Staters taking over Tuscaloosa for the highly anticipated game.  With little faith we'll hold our own on the field, I say with one hundred percent confidence that we'll school them in tailgating.



GO STATE!

• Oh and in case you were worried I was going somewhere, HMOH is up to seven confirmed 2011 weddings to attend.  If anyone else is planning on getting engaged in the next few months, better get on my calendar now.  Memorial Day weekend is out. July is booked, and quite frankly, August doesn't look good either ...
