today

1) i have no voice. it has been years since i lost my voice. i think it is allergies
2) hoopty just went into the shop and he is costing me 650 dollars. some intake manifold thing or something. it is a good thing he has been paid off for a year or i would be more upset.
3) next tuesday i start therapy for my hand. actually, it is either a splint or successive casts that will lengthen my tendon. think braces. i am hoping for the splint to start with so i can get used to typing with it. i guess this works 20% of the time but i am a prime canidate for it. if it doesn't work, surgery is the next option. also, the doctor i saw cursed the one i had a kid that told me there was nothing to do with it. i guess this would have been much easier to fix 15 years ago.
4) i am doing well not biting my nails. i like this new nail polish i have, it actually stays on. i think i will buy more colors.
5) vacation coming up!
6) completely geeked out last night with the flickr api for bertine.org, this weekend i am going to look at the livejournal stuff to see if i can add my public entries into it too.
7) i bought makeup last week and i like it. i don't wear it alot but it is good to have.
8) today is chipolte day!!

yay for chipotle day!!

where are you going on vacation?

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
i love chipotle! mmm... a nice chicken burrito with the corn salsa and guacamole (i am a big spender today).

vegas road trip. i have been saying i am going to see the grand canyon for years. it is time! plus i want to go to the spot where four states meet!

[identity profile] soyouthink.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
okay, you had me until you said guacamole!

i'm SO jealous about your road trip! that is exactly what i want to do, except i'd probably wuss out and fly, then rent a car. but still. vegas. grand canyon. yeah, TOTALLY jealous. :)

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
that is ok, you can have no guacamole. i allow it.

actually that is what i am doing. flying out and renting a car. i just spent too much money on hoopty to drive him. ha!

i am just going to spend alot of time working before then so i can make some extra cash so i can EAT SO MUCH.

[identity profile] soyouthink.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 04:23 pm (UTC)(link)
i figured you were spending money on hoopty just so you COULD drive him down!

how long are you going to be in vegas? have you ever been? i'm super excited for you!

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
nah, he just was annoying me and i decided it was just time to do it.

i am not sure yet, still planning. i was there when i was a kid, we just drove through. I am excited too!

Big spender?

I bet you forgot I owed you today for last week.

Re: Big spender?

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I did!

so you are a big spender!

Vacation, good nail polish and chipolte day? Sounds like you're in a good place! :0)

Sorry 'bout the expensive car, though.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah! it is an wonderful day today. half an hour to chipotle. god i love that food.

the car has been something that has been acting up for months, i knew it was coming. to tell you the truth i expected it to be more. it just means more money for vacation!

[identity profile] sacramentalist.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Wah! I want Chipotle.

Sorry about Hoopty. Cars are always expensive. I cross my fingers I don't have any repairs for a while.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
it is so good. i am having a diet coke too. mmm... heaven.

i'll feel so much better when Hoopty is running better. He is a good car.

So you are silent but pretty!!!

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
exactly. makeup is cool. i like playing with it. i need to get some cute lip stuff.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
maybe, i have to go play. one of the girls on my list gave me some suggestions, i just have to pay off my car first. ha!

[identity profile] murun.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
heh, a lippy is considerably cheaper!!!

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
i suppose, plus it means i won't be tempted by the body glitter or perfume.

god i love that body glitter stuff SO MUCH. but where would i wear it?

[identity profile] murun.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
On your body, duh! ;)

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
but to work?

it is perfumed and glittery and I WANT IT SO MUCH.

[identity profile] murun.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, do it! But Fridays only.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
maybe next pay day. i want to glitter. :D

[identity profile] murun.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
If you do it, I will too. We will be stared at all day :D

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 05:59 pm (UTC)(link)
that would be fun! body glitter is so summery!!

[identity profile] akorahil.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
you wouldn't be the first employee to wear glitter...

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-05-02 03:07 pm (UTC)(link)
the first employee on this side maybe. :P

Glitter- it's not just a movie anymore.

[identity profile] akorahil.livejournal.com 2006-05-02 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Fair enough.

Re: Glitter- it's not just a movie anymore.

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-05-02 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
i might just wear it one day (i sort of bought it this weekend)

Re: Glitter- it's not just a movie anymore.

[identity profile] akorahil.livejournal.com 2006-05-02 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Sort of bought it, eh? Good thing you didn't ACTUALLY buy it....

Oh, and what's this about letting EVERYONE sign the cast? I totally have first dibs!

[identity profile] murun.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh swanky. So it just comes out of the brush?

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2006-04-27 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
