Hi! I haven't updated in a long time b/c my life is pretty much a non-event at this point. This weekend I had a cold. I also did a little shopping (for myself) but I asked for gift boxes so the checkout person wouldn't know the depths of my selfishness. Here are some tips to pass onto my loyal reader:
ColdCalm kicks butt. I got it at Whole Foods and it's annoying b/c you have to dissolve it under your tongue every 10 minutes for two hours, and then take it once every hour after that. But, the stuff actually worked! I think the germs just got sick (get it!?) of dealing with the dissolved yucky pills and they hightailed it out of my sinuses. Definitely try it, even if you're not into homeopathic quackery.
I also picked up some Frederic Fekkai curl creme b/c the Bumble & Bumble Beach Spray made my hair crunchy and I felt like I was back in the fifth grade, getting perms at the mall's hair salon (conveniently located across from the arcade so that all of the mallrats could see me with my hair up in rollers). Anyway, this stuff doesn't work that well, but at least my hair isn't salty.
I am also excited b/c I really wanted a Missoni scarf, b/c it's very cold in South Florida. But, seeing as how they only make gigantic scarves, and I tend to lose things like gloves and hats, I found a nice knockoff at Anthropologie which was exactly what I wanted. I guess I should take a picture of it, but I'm too lazy. Maybe later.
Then, on my way home from shopping and Whole Foods, what should have been a 3-minute car ride turned into an hour-long quest to find an open bridge. I live on a barrier island, and this weekend they held the Holiday Boat Parade, which is when a bunch of fat old rich men put lights on their yachts and find a bunch of skanks who've raided Victoria's Secrets' Holiday Whorewear and they sail around waving to a bunch of drunk people standing on the shore who don't own boats.
I drove around to three different bridges, with a fever, arriving just in time for them to put the gates down and the bridges up. Drawbridges are quaint and stupid!
Now I am trying to come up with my first semester exam. I just want to nap.

I enjoyed your tips, and your post. It is nice to be privy to your daily activities!
I had way more exciting plans for the weekend, too. I was thinking about going to Art Basel, but then since I've banned dating artists, I had kind of rejected the idea. So instead, I was going to do something generic, like watch the Gator game at a sports bar, but I was so pissed by the time I found a bridge, well, it was time to call it a night. Now I am trying to figure out how to embed Journey's "Separate Ways" video.
