Here, Kitty Kitty


Ok...let me begin by saying that one of my best friends not I is the Hello Kitty fanatic. However Hello Kitty Party Pals for Gameboy Advance is addictive. So addictive, that a dear friend of my hubby and I started to feen just playing the copy that I have. She mentions during her obssesive rave that she has to have it. I start to tell her be blessed attempting to locate it because it has been discontinued. Now a true giver would just say let her have the copy I currently have. The Devil is a liar. Then it hit me. I had an extra copy due to the fact that my fashion soul sister(the Hello Kitty feener) had already bought it. I was blessed not only with the task of giving her another game( Mario and Luigi : Partners in Time) but I had to return the HK. Bummer. In mid sentence, I got up like I was in a trance. My husband and her were like what is up. I would not answer them when they kept asking what was wrong. I was on a mission to locate the game to give to her. Yeah I could have had 20 bucks back in my pocket , but the look on her face. The unxpected look one has when they were not expecting to have their wish granted so quickly. She was using the scripture to it's fullest extent. Ask and she shall receice. And hey God loveths a cheerful giver. Smooches.

Dear Mr, Jesus

I wanted to be the first to wish you Happy Birthday,Jesus. Smooches.

Let's Hear It for the Boy


So you would think I would be rocking out to Christmas music. NOPE!!! I am in love....with Fall Out Boy's From Under The Cork Tree. I can't get enought of them. I am so miffed that I missed them at Hard Rock...here...in ORLANDO!!!! WAH!!!! Anyway, I listen in the car, at my job, in my dreams. I love them. However, their lyrics...well let us pray for them. If I had a Christmas list, I would be checking it twice. They are very naughty boys. Smooches.

Koo Koo for Cocoa


So my lips need a lil holiday cheer. So during my normal browsing of the internet, I discovered Estee Lauder Pure Color Crystal Gloss in Cocoa Sugar. It actually has flicks of gold. Yep. I said gold. I am not saying I'm a gold digger (insert Kanye West's joint);however, just looks like I eat Millionaires for lunch. Smooches.

Le Eye of Le Tigre


So I am obsessed with polos: Ralph, Lacoste ,Le Tigre. Le Tigre..le sigh. I have been on a major hunt for a Le Tigre polo ever since I gazed upon my reality star equal, Lo from Laguna Beach sporting one in solid Black. I had one already but it was white with a green collar. Love it; however, with a rack like mine...had to lose the white. Now I should have learned my lesson the when I see something in the store that I have been searching for...I need to buy it for crying out loud. But I let not one but two Le Tigre polos pass me by all the while letting the year round preppy green LT polo sit in the clearance aisle week after week after week. Finally I broke or more like snapped. And yes, my faithful readers, I am wearing it as I type this. Looks great with the Earl jeans that according Stacey London from TLC's What Not To Wear are not right for my body type. Yes I vowed to toss them post her visit to O's show but come on...they are Earls. Smooches.

Lucky Charm


So I tried my best, I repeat, my best NOT to purchase the Dior Diorplay Swarvoski encrusted darling. Since it was not in the color I wanted, I just didn't need it. Then fashion reality hit: Who cares if it is in beige...not like I bought it for it's lip color anyway. I did do an honorable thing and cancel my preorder for the Chanel shimmer and matching brush. I only have eyes for the bejeweled...bedazzled. Smooches

Now I'm Playing with Power



Finally I am stepping into the 90's: Got a Gameboy SP. New backlighting and all. Now just to head out and buy some girly games..tee hee hee. Smooches.

A Charmed Life



Tee hee hee! Who could possibly say no to a YSL charm bracelet aka Multi-Usage Palette? Especially with makeup attached. I had to jump on that mug since it carried the weighted words..."Limited Edition". Didn't help much that the SA said that there was only one left. Oh come on. It is not like I had a choice in the matter. I mean just look at her. In all her splendid glam glory. Yes, my lovely wrist, you will be graced with her presence soon. Smooches.

Move Over, Kristie Alley

So Saturday, I was just telling one of my best friends that I was just gonna settle for being at 140-145, weight that is. She was like, "Dee, you are so close why stop now if your initial goal weight was 135?" I just gave her the look as if to say...if you only knew. Let me be the first to tell you that I just knew since I have been hitting and missing on Weight Watchers lately that I just knew that I had ballooned up to 150-155. WRONG!!!!! Walked in Publix, where the "SCALE" awaits you as you walk in. My husband of course NEVER heistates to jump on it. I was like let me go first...let me get this over with. OMG!!! 144??? NO WAY!!! I am so proud of myself...so proud. See I realized that WW is not a DIET. It is a lifestyle. And one that I am committed to. Also realize that it is slowly pouring off due to my 15 minutes a day on the treadmill. And guess what? I am alright with that. 10lbs shy of my goal weight. You've come a long way, baby. Smooches.

I Am Ready for My Close-up, Mr. Deville



I always knew my inner European girl was French..tee hee hee.

Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread

WHY? I said I would do FAST for the remainder of November because I want God to move in my life and I want to prove the love of my life...WRONG!!!! So now I am praying my beloved Heavenly Father will be so kind and let all the glam goodies I want still be available for purchase. Got to be strong. Must not break. In the word of the infamous Jason from MTV's Making the Band..."Is this Reality?" Smooches.

Le Sigh

Le Sigh. Why on earth am I so lazy? I mean there is no other word to describe it. First let me start of by saying I love being girly: Uptown Glamour, Park Avenue Princess, Kiddie Couture. Etc, Etc, ETC! So why am I not able to maintain the comestics side of it. I admire the women in my life the get up early and make that extra effort to apply facial enhancments. All I can muster up is lipgloss and eyeliner...IN THE CAR! My hubby, of all people, wants me to do more in the make-up department. So today I vow it. That I, DeeDee Delovely(what were you expecting? My REAL name?...This is still the internet, home of identity theft), will go to bed at 10P.M. and awaken at 6:30A.M. The snooze button will be dead to me. On my next shopping excursion, I will stock up on Dior and Chanel for the face, body and mind. Smooches.

Struck Shopping Gold

What an eventful weekend. Went roller skating Friday night. That was a mess in itself. I am married to the Skating King. Who by the way as been dethrone and is trying to regain his crown. Calls himself prepping for when the Skate Queen, one of my best friends, arrives for the Great Skate Showdown. TOO MUCH! Went shopping this weekend. Scored some glam goodies: Pink Delman satin lace up espadrille flats - $25;Ice blue TODS driving mocs - $50; Juicy Couture rhinestone Gothic letter D charm for my Juicy charm bracelet - $25. Those are my major scores. Then there was the impromptu BBQ. It was so unexpected but so needed. That atmosphere was just great. The food, the socializing. Our house needed that. I guess when you throw Madea in the mix, there are endless possibilities. Sunday... I went to church... 2 SUNDAYS IN A ROW. So proud. Life is Good...Because God is Good. Smooches.

Captain Kirk, where have you been?

Usually I love to give an artist time to release the album after they have bombarded me with the first single that gets radio airplay. Normally after hearing it for about the umpteenth time, I have made up my mind that I will be making that purchase. Well, during my normal pilgrimage to work this morning, I heard Kirk Frankin's new single from his upcoming album. MUST HAVE IT...STAT!!!! I know, based off of one song? Kirk has yet to fail me. And I know he wouldn't start now. Here in lies the challenge: I can't even find the title of the album or the single. Figures. Since I should have known from previous experiences that my beloved net would not hold up it's end of our blessed search engine union and provide me with what I am seeking. As long as he drops that joint within a month from now, I will be all good. He best not miss the expiration date on my proposed deadline. I would hate to have to get on the horn and let him have what for. Smooches.

God Grant Me the Serenity

That prayer comes to mind lately. Why is everything and everyone working my nerves? Well what I should really say is: Why does not hurting anyone's feeling bother me anymore? Seriously, I am not the shuffle and jive girl I use to be. The older I get, the more I feel there is no need for kid gloves. I use to beat myself up if I ever thought that I had cut someone deep. Toss and turn all night. Praying for daylight, so I could apologize if I had not done it already. Now the thought of the fact that I might have hurt someone with my sharp tongue does not even warrent a bat of an eyelash. Which brings me back to the Serenity Prayer. I am trying to implement it into my life without adding the twist on the end:
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and the wisdom to hide the dead bodies.

Love is in the Hermes

Birkin? How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. How come one minute I love it and the next I just can't stomach the thought of spending over 5gs for a bag? A BAG!!!!! But le sigh, I won't rest till I get on the list. Heck! A list. I need to get on one...STAT!!! I am thinking 10 grand is it. I will pay no more. Heck I said that when 5 grand was my limit. I know, I know...A BAG!!! But I love what I love. Smooches.
