Priorities
I bought a bottle of water this morning. Between the dog and my plant there is no water left for me.
Blogs
My friend works in PR and has been asking me what blogs I read. I actually don’t read very many but if you happen to read any that you love then let me know (georgiegirlnyc@gmail.com) and I can pass the info along and maybe add it to my own google reader.
And by blogs, I don’t mean tumblrs unless they are truly unique.

This will be a madhouse. There may even be some catfighting. Worthwhile catfighting obvs.
Today I ate so badly. I missed lunch entirely because I had back to back meetings from 10.30 - 4pm. I was ravenous at that point so I scoffed a brownie and a packet of Doritos (watching those bloody commercials linked below obviously worked on me). Then for dinner I had pizza and a pepsi. SO BAD.
WatchCute and funny.
Her mother writes: Capucine makes the scene because she doesn’t want to finish her carrots. When she realizes our patience limits are soon to be reached, she plays her ace card.

Her mother writes: Here’s the story.
Nabil vimeo.com/user459466 has this awesome little brother named Alex. Nabil watched Capucine’s videos and he wants Alex to marry Capucine. So he’s made two auditions videos for Capucine. Not only Alex is awesome, but he has a real talent for dinosaurs story telling. After showing Capucine Alex’s first...

Doritos Super Bowl Video - My favorite
The best thing about Super Bowl is the commericals because, who’s kidding who, I couldn’t even tell you which teams are playing in it. Doritos has a great contest in which consumers can make their own commercials and submit them for consideration. Then the best one (as voted by consumers) will be aired during super bowl. This is my favorite. Soooooo funny!
Doritos Super Bowl Video - Second Favorite
This one is my second favorite. Also hilarious.
It's not what I signed up for
Dawn Spinner Davis, 26, a beauty writer, said the downward-trending graphs began to make sense when the man she married on Nov. 1, a 28-year-old private wealth manager, stopped playing golf, once his passion. “One of his best friends told me that my job is now to keep him calm and keep him from dying at the age of 35,” Ms. Davis said. “It’s not what I signed up for.”

– Me thinking this right now (via carolynannahall)
Well put Carolyn! A lesson for people without tumblrs. There are horrible mean-spirited people on tumblr who enjoy reblogging other people’s posts and adding their own nasty thoughts to them. Thankfully this has not happened to me much but I...
Montreal
I really wish I could post all about John’s trip to Montreal but alas I can’t. I can tell you that one of the boys managed to lose his British passport and so is still currently in Canada awaiting his new passport along with his work visa in order to get back into the country. My response to John: I would rather be forced to give away all of my Jimmy Choos before losing my passport.

Update on my book
I am blown away by how great this book is. It’s unputdownable. I wish I didn’t have to work or sleep so I could finish it in one sitting. Unfortunately at the moment all I am doing is working and sleeping. No break even on Australia Day :-(
The rhyming of ‘Australia’ and ‘nail ya’ is sheer genius. Thanks S!!
pinkseersucker:
Today is my friend C’s birthday - I always write people poems (not great ones, silly ones) and I decided to post it because I thought Georgie would be proud that I incorporated Australia Day into it.
Happy Birthday Carrie! You’re not as old as Larry! I hope you have a wonderful day...

Mum's advice
Skyping with my Mum just now and talking about some worries I have. She told me to remember what Michael Jordan said:
if you come up against a wall, try go over it, under it, around it or break a ****fing hole in it and go thru it. Just get on the other side. Its possible.
WatchHaha! I had forgotten about this video.
