On to 2009...betches.
I wanted to share this with you all. I found it on this often criticized blog and thought that it was a good way to review the past year before the new one begins tonight. It’s from Mary Schmich of the Chicago Tribune:
YEAR IN REVIEW - 2008
When you consciously review your year, you may notice how little you noticed it as it whizzed past. To review is to re-view. To rewind, pause, look...
Merry Christmas!! It’s a very lazy day at my house and I’ve been eating non-stop and it is such a delight. I’m about to start watching An American in Paris and unwrap the beautiful wine glasses my maman got me for the holiday. Loverly.
Show Me Your Guns
Mom: There’s been a lot of crime in Omaha lately. Bank robberies, shootings, purse snatching…
Me: Really? In Nebraska?
Cecily: That’s why I want pepper spray and a rape whistle for Christmas.
-Straight from my ten year old sister’s mouth.
Happy Holidays
I’m at LaGuardia waiting to board my flight home. I’m completely exhausted because I procrastinated packing and only got three hours of sleep. I’m sorry but I’m a girl and need a lot of shite/options. Okay I need coffee.
P.S. Why is airport food sooo disgusting????
Oh Christmas Spirit! Where Art Thou?
December is my favorite month!!! I have no Christmas spirit this year and I’ve been looking everywhere for it. Maybe, I will find it under the Christmas tree in Omaha or in a festive holiday drink. Omaha tomorrow!!

Scary
You know what is frightening? Those freakin X-box commercials with the back of people’s heads cut out and people playing Rock Band inside.
I thought clowns were scary ;-/
The Met at Closing Time
Silly me. I forgot to check what time the Met closed today and since the MTA decided to employ turtles I arrived with only 20 minutes to spare before closing.
It was absolutely breathtaking.
I’ve only been to the Met with an insane amount of people but today I walked through rooms and rooms of the museum all by myself. I was so HAPPY and at peace and in awe of the Art and Love in...

WatchSoooo, sometimes when I talk I get really lazy with my speech. Sometimes there is too much saliva, sometimes I have a lisp. Obvs, I said something of this nature before we recorded, but it was damn close.

Comf.
Ahhh, jet lag is a beautiful thing. My room is a mess with snow from Russian clowns, French gifts, and German gummies while I’m snuggled down deep in my oversized Armani cardigan drinking coffee. Delish.
Home
It actually feels good to be home. In my apartment. That has been neglected the last few months. It feels like me.
WatchAfter the show on Tuesday, the night before we left for Germany, I asked everyone to give me their best French. I have to say, my accent is by far the sexiest.
WatchWalking along the river in Vichy, we ran across this zip line for kids. Of course I jumped on it bc I’m a kid at heart!

Moulins
I could listen to people speak French for the rest of my life and someday soon I will be one of those people. I’m off to snap pictures and walk around this quaint little town.
Au revoir.
Clumsy
Sometime during the night I hit my head on some awful object and woke up with a huge welt in the middle of my forehead. Then today while walking up the stairs I tripped so hard I was in a full run the rest of the way up. Sorry, to whoever was behind me. I hope you had a laugh at my expense.
Update: Spider bite right between the eyes. Thank god for big curls!
