It’s been a busy week. The fam was visiting – and it was a fabu time! Got some quality Triangle-area shopping in, some barbecque, you know, pretty standard really. I miss them already! *sob* My apartment did get some lovin’, it’s a lot cozier now with curtains and some mood lighting. (Pictures coming soon!).

I made another monumental purchase – a couch and loveseat. It’s boo-ful, khaki microfiber with modern lines and the feel of suede! Oh behave. Plus it’s a sofa bed so I can entertain guests (hint hint to anyone in a drivable distance!). I would have gotten a picture, but my mom got one with her film camera – the SALESMAN actually took it, oh yeah we are that cool In a short 2-3 weeks cushy new furniture will be gracing the presence of my happy apartment. Well, this is just the beginning. After this is a bed, new dining room set, TV stand – yeah it never actually REALLY ends.

To current and former friends in RTP – I decided I am really going for the Punk Look. After a disappointing haircut that ended up with the Boring Look instead of the Punk Look, I decided, hey, why not get some punk clothes? Because those are totally acceptable for working at IBM! Well, I think punk-inspired business clothes would be totally original. Picture this shirt with some dress pants or a skirt – oh yeah, hot stuff. My next purchase is going to be punk pinstripe pants. I saw some in Charlotte Russe I should have gotten – but really, 5 hooks to close up one pair of pants? Can we say not efficient?

A punk makeover of this here website is coming soon. I’ve got the visuals, it’s the acutal (boring) implementation part left. That’s a bit more of a chore, so I’m not exactly sure when it’ll happen, but I do promise Carrievision.com: The Punk Edition.

I think now I’ll dance around the apartment like an idiot. Fun!
