BOH's wedding to the Ginger (it's my blog.. I can call him what I want!)
BOH's been talking real serious about this Ginger guy (he doesn't like I call him that, but since this is my blog, I do what I want. You know that's right!)

I've been fighting the urge to do something really stupid...
Oh Kate Spade. Why did you have to come out with a fall line that is exceptional?
*sigh*
I've been so close to doing some real damage and purchasing a few of these tops from Kate Spade. I've resisted the urge thus far, and am hoping this it goes on sale.
I've got to say- This top really reminds me of the new Francis blouse at J. Crew. While I love the Kate Spade version, I think I'll stick with buying the less expensive J. Crew version. It's so pretty though!
Broom Street Cassie Cardigan- $255
I love the simple twists on the sleeves... and where you wear this on top of the...
Madeline Dot Balloon Sleeve Bow Blouse- $265
eeeee!!!!! I love this top. This has been in my basket so many times.. I've haven't worked up the guts for the final purchase yet. And now... due to my inability to commit to such an expensive purchase... IT'S SOLD OUT IN MY SIZE.

Do you have any items you're eyeing? Does anyone else feel guilty spending THAT much on an article of clothing?

Uhh... so much for the shopping sabbatical.
Yeah. So... I haven't blogged in awhile. I've been doing my best not to *shop*.
I suck.
Without further ado- My most recent purchases:
I suck.
Without further ado- My most recent purchases:
EcoSkin Bamboo Dress- $60 (usually around $130, ebay purchase- they also had them on hautelook the other day for $68)
White Rosette Dress- $55 (also an ebay purchase, from an antrhopologie sample sale)
Both are oh so pretty and I love them. I think I'm going to dye the rosette dress though- I haven't decided what color... Any suggestions? I love the ivory- I just suck with ivory.
Oh, and the husband is an amazing creature. He bought me the Lewis Carrol book for our anniversary AND indian food. I love him ever so much!

I loved reading this and thought I would share...
The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington engineering mid-term. The answer was so "profound" that the Professor shared it with colleagues, and the sharing obviously hasn't ceased...
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or Endothermic (absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote Proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law, (gas cools off when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:
"First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate that souls are moving into Hell and the rate they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let us look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially.
Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand as souls are added. This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2. Of course, if Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.
So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa Banyan during my Freshman year, "...that it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you.", and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then, #2 cannot be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and will not freeze."
This student received the only A.
