You will never believe what happened...

I was coming out of the grocery store and I saw Anna Wintour! I was flabbergasted.  I was so astonished I didn't even look for my camera. I'm just standing there, in the middle of the parking lot and other people are walking around me and I'm sorta pointing and she goes in the store.  So then I'm like should I follow her, where is my phone I should call someone. Then I start looking around for her limo or driver or something, nada. Then I remember an article I read recently by Tim Dunn stating she always has a body guard so I start looking for men in black while I'm walking back to the enterance. There are none. Wait, why would she go into a grocery in Florida alone? I'm outside the entry sliding doors ie blocking the enterance to the grocery store debating if I should start stalking  I mean reenter the store. It doesn't seem right. So I decide to just sneek a quick peek cause the bags are starting to get super heavy and it's too hot to wait outside. She is in the floral department. Right there! Why doesn't anyone else notice her? I have no idea. People are walking around me while I gawk. I get a little closer and she has on a pink polo, white jeans, a green sweater tossed over the shoulders and some sort of sandals, chanel sunglasses earrings and bracelet (at least I think the jewelry was chanel def on the glasses) anyway she turns around looks up smiles at me then turns around to finish her convo with the clerk in floral. Thats when I think this can't be her cause the polo has the Saddlebrook tennis academy embroidered on it and I don't think Anna Wintour smiles. In anycase I couldn't hold the bags anymore so I left, but holy cow I think that's one of the coolist celebrity sightings ever.

Although I'm pretty sure it wasn't her...I still think it was pretty cool.

Thank You

I was reading a blog recently and I thought to myself  'this sounds exactly like me'.

Then  a few days go by and 'that happened to me too'

and a few more days or weeks go by and I read some more and I'm like 'she could be my sister'  and that leads to 'we should be best friends!'

I am so lucky to have made such great bloggy friends like you and I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate your comments, suggestions and words of wisdom.

Reading the blogs has really educated me in so many ways and taught me to really open up so I just wanted to say Thank you. I know I don't always delve as deep as many of you do. Maybe someday I'll be as brave but till then Thank you  :)

The Carrie Diaries

Summer Reading

If you can only read 1 book this summer I'd put the Carrie Diaries at the top of the list. i loved it.

Now I know there are some who have read and were miffed cause it doesn't follow with the TV show. That's because TV & Movies never follow the book exactly. I mean we all know in real life she married the ballerina, right?

But it does match up with the books and let me tell you, I could not put it down. The original Sex in the City book had numerous points of view where this is the story of Carries youth. And OMG the ending is AWSOME! Can you say hooked?

I actually ended up buying this book cause the library copy had chocolate and cheeto fingerprints on the first 50 pages (yuck) so that tells you it's getting a lot of use but an excellent read none the less

and it's so good it was a fast read too.

Neiman Marcus

I am on the email list for Neiman's and sometimes they have some very interesting items at 50% off or more which I LOVE with a capital L

It is sometimes called the midday dash and I think I am addicted

Today at 12:28 EST I was at the computer refreshing 20 times a minute!

Then when my computer said it was 12:33 the page was there! YEAH

after 1 minute I realized there was nothing that I could fit into or liked

hum

This has happened at every mid day dash since Feb

think there is a pattern?

think I'd change my behavior?

uh, no

It's kinda like gambling I guess
