procrastination...

did you watch glee last night????  AMAZING.  lisa had us rewind it and watch certian parts again.  i was consumed by the fact that qinn (in all her pregnant glory) had on my favorite winter coat from a million seasons ago!  props to the BR!

here was the most amzing part incase you missed it:

Gossip Girl

IT'S BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if you did not watch it on monday... buy it on i-tunes NOW.  best $2.99 you can spend this week!!

hope you are warm or dry like alex today!  here its raining and i know in chi-town and elsewhere it is SNOWING and very cold.  stay warm!!! 

Gossip Girl

you know i love gossip girl.   however, i must confess i have been speaking poorly of this season (even comparing it to season 3 of THE O.C.) 

However, monday night's thanksgiving episode has given me hope!  (also did you notice how hot nate was???)

SPOILERS BELOW if you have not watched do not read any further!!!!!

not only was eleanore waldorf back and dorota preggers but serena is off on another wild ride and blair is eating pie again!!!!!  it was a glimpse back into season one and i was in heaven! (i would have liked to see eleanore pregnant as she was in the books -they baby's name was yale!)

back to how hot nate was... i would have picked him over trip any day ... sorry trip. 

it is killing me to know what was in that letter and i think they might keep it from us for a while... any ideas????

do you think trip will really leave maureen?  what is lilly hiding ????  when is nelly yuki coming back?

i cannot wait until next monday.  also blake lively is on SNL this saturday so we don't have to go a whole week w/o gg!!

New Obsession

Over the past week I have developed a new tv crush:  Mad Men.  I just ordered season 2 on amazon.com and plan to watch this weekend, as I am almost done with season 1 episodes.  I even got JPC to watch too.  Below is a picture of one of my favorite characters: Joan.  Seriously great drama.  Great Fashion.  What's not to like?

Hope everyone has a great weekend!  AMH is currently on her way to Chi for the wedding.  Hopefully she posts some pics when she returns!

xoxo?

AMH and I were true GG fans from the beginning.  She read the books, and introduced me to the series our sr year of college.  I have loved the show and been a big fan from the start.  This season, however has got me worried.  While I still love Blair and her cattiness I'm wondering where this season is going.  While I have yet to watch the episode from last night, these are the primary questions I have for this season.
1.  What is with Serena?  Is she going to go to Brown?  Is she still in PR? - I just can't get into that one.
2.  Nate's Drama.  So over it.  And PS what is with that new haircut he was sporting in last week's ep?
3.  Georgina- Where did she go?  Did Dortota do her off for good?
4.  Chuck and Blair.  Can't they just be together? - together without that dumb 3some game
5.  Where are all of B's headbands? - i miss them
6.  How much longer of this Hillary Duff plot?

Tonight I'm going to catch up on the last episode.  Let's hope some of my q's are answered and the show's plot starts to improve!

BAH-nanas

i love R.Zoe. maybe to much... perhaps not enough. i want to be her. obvi i am glued to the RZP. i found this on funny or die and laughed out loud. lisa (aka my mom) was sitting accross from me and could not understand why i found it so funny! hope you enjoy!!!

Rachel Zoe Outtakes - watch more funny videos

rough week

so after my horrid sunday the week just keep on going full speed ahead. not much to talk about, busy busy.

I missed the first 1/2 of GG and missed the city, but i did get my nike +. Missed the office and 30 rock. cant wait for the morning to catch up!

i did get the Feb edition of Real Simple and InStyle. as alex can attest this was v. stressful for me and did start the upswing of my week.

today MLF sent me flowers at work!! they are so wonderful and everyone was asking me about them. i think they thought i made up MLF until then. (picture to come soon!) this was the highlight of the week and maybe month!!!

only 7 days until i move in to the new apt.
14 until i see my mom and sister! (abby thats for you!)

G.G.

i am so glad Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage have seen what a class character nelly yuki is. i have loved her from her the v. first episode. how classic was it when flo ridder brought her to tears. i also am in love with her glasses. this picture is of last seasons glasses. they have gotten MUCH BETTER.
this week she is the down fall of dan and serena. that is a little much. but i forgive her.

highlight: when she ditches lil'j to stay with penelop, hazel and Iz.

Gossip Girl Tuesday

in honor of our college tradition, wine tuesday. when alex and i would polish off a liter and half of sauvignon blanc and either a dish of bufflo chicken dip or taco dip and watch tv. (its ok it was college and totall acceptable to do things like that, see we have stoped since graduation, and i have lost those unwanted lbs) as well we have decided to devote tuesday to gossip girl.


the obsession continues

WWBWD-W?

i have an unhealthy obsession...

gossip girl. its not just the tv show either. when i was a freshman in college i got really into the books. my sister who got me into them was in highschool. we used to fight over them at the pool. oh the days.

anyway today i got to thinking What Would Blair Waldorf Do-Wear? should be a regular on our blog. many times a day i ask myself.

from getting dress, to shopping (wishing for one of those prada headbands -I DIE- if i ever found one i would not be able to stop from buying it) to some bitchy remark to put someone else in their place. i just need her in my life.

Plaid like LC

As of lately I have been in the search for the perfect plaid shirt, a la (my favorite reality star) LC. I love how chic they look with the prefect skinny jeans. In case you were wondering these said plaid shirts are extremely difficult to find.

I was finally able to track one down at my local Urban Outfitters located at Downtown Palm Beach Gardens. It is quickly becoming my fav shirt to wear. Perfect for those cool 65 degree south Florida winter days. I love the vintage look and feel of these great Urban Renewal shirts.

'til later,
alex marie

Michael Scott

so i have this job. i dont like it all that much but its a job and i get to use excel (its my fav!)

there is one major problem...

my boss is MICHAEL SCOTT


i am the only person in the office who notices. on wednesday, new years eve, we have a office wide meeting to look at 50 of the 300 pictures he recently took on his vacation. (this is instead of leaving early)

today we also had an hour long meeting about the fact that after this week i will be moving desks (right now i sit adjacent to MS). we had to talk about everyone's feelings on this issue ... AWKWARD


i almost forgot, along with the pictures there is going to be trivia about his vacation.


when do i go back to college???
