What’s happened to me in the past month?

  • I left the Big Blue and am now with a non-outsourcing company.
  • I joined the big 3-0 bandwagon.
  • I finished a ton of books, mostly chick lit. :mrgreen: The ones that made their mark were books by Madeleine Wickham. I just started Daniel Abraham’s 3rd, Autumn War. Asked JE to get it for me from Kinokuniya when he went to SG.
  • Typhoon Ketsana (Ondoy) slammed into the Philippines last weekend. We got stranded at Ian’s and I left a window open at the condo. This will probably get its own post.
  • Got my very first pair of Maco Custodio shoes – the Van Booties from his Holiday 2009 collection. Support our Filipino designers!

The wandering eye.

I was watching an old episode of Sex and the City, the one where Carrie and Big are walking after dinner at this place where Big had asked the other diners if he could smoke his cigar and Carrie thinks she hates his arrogance. So they’re walking and he’s smoking, and a tall, hot girl with gorgeous legs walks by and Big’s eyes wander. Carrie says “Hey!” and takes his face by the chin to make him look at her and not the girl.

And it got me thinking if Le Boyfriend had a wandering eye. So I thought back to all the time we hung out together at cafes and malls and I realized that he _does_ have a wandering eye. For cars. Sports cars. Specifically Subarus.

And I realized that _I’m_ the one who has a wandering eye for hot girls. Specifically hot girls with fab shoes.

What does that say about us?

LOL.

I need to clean out my closet again, and organize its contents. I need some clothes racks, similar to this one (from Childhood Flames):
