Well.. I am an official book clubber now :) This is the next pic for August's meeting. It has the potential to be very dark, but I have been told that since it is written from a 5-year old's perspective, the dark nature will be redeemed. I will keep you posted...

Burley and I have walked past this bar a few times, and thought it looked amazing, but maybe a bit too pricey for us broke kids. However, on a lovely date night (I say it like that because I wore an outfit that made me want to say "lovely" in a british accent a lot... sorry no pictures... some evenings must remain sacred) there was a sign outside that said 2 for 1 drinks on Sundays! REALLY? They werent lying. We tried a couple of their specialty cocktails, at their swanky bar, and chatted with a lovely bar tender. All half price!

Helly my lovely Sunday tradition....

Now I am not what you would call a die-hard HP fan. I have only read books 1-3 and probably seen the first 2 movies partially on TV a few times. Before you start sending me hate mail, I will have you know I have nothing against it. I actually really like the series. I just have never taken the time to dive in. ANYWAYS, I am a huge fan of going to the movies by myself & I have found an incredible dine-in theater here in Denver. Cinebar (everyone should go... movies are $5 and they FEED you). So on Friday I ventured out with all the other 17 year olds and watched the final HP movie. I have to say... The kids are charming, the story line is exciting, and the action was great. I would tell anyone (HP fan or not) to catch this flick.

*** If I truly get hate mail over this I will be baffled, becuase that means that either my sister, mother, and/or best friend hate me. Thanks for readin' folks!

There are pros and cons to being a goal-oriented person. Pro - you get things done. Con - you have to sign up for 5K races just to get your butt off the couch and make sure you hit the gym every day. The race is on August 14th. I hate running. BUT ITS GOING TO BE SO FUN AND I AM EXCITED! (those were my thighs talking)

All of the following items were purchased for under $25 - YES. Thank you, half-off Saturday.

 Canvas/Leather Purse - $3

White Jacket - $3

Sexy Sailor Dress with V-Cut Back - $7

White Braided Belt - $1

Sassy Yellow Shirt - $3

Black Lace Shirt - $3

This last little number was no thriftstore find. This was a precious gift sent to me by my seester. It was in my mailbox when I got home from thrifitng on Saturday. It goes fantastically well with the things that I bought, and I wore it to the pool & dog park on Sunday. My, how my seester knows me.

PHEW! That is all... now back to the week-at-hand.
