Low: I spent over an hour stuffing envelopes about summer camp. 150 envelopes, stuffed with a letter and a catalog. Then I had to run each individual envelope through the stamp machine. Good thing I had lots of practice stuffing envelopes back when I was a publicity assistant at a publishing company.
Low: It’s still chilly and rainy.
High: The executive director just gave me two free tickets to this Saturday’s Huskers football game! And the weather is supposed to clear up! It’ll be my first live football experience (not counting high school games). Too bad the Huskers are terrible this year. Still, the game’s a sell-out. Note to self: must find something red to wear.
High: Some girls are coming over tonight for dinner and Grey’s Anatomy. By chance a couple of us missed last week’s episode, so over spaghetti and meatballs we’ll watch it before the new episode begins at 8pm. Isn’t that weird? I’m still not used to evening television beginning at 7pm. For the last year or so, 7pm meant watching Scrubs reruns on Comedy Central with Jenna. Now 7pm is Ugly Betty time.
High: Tomorrow’s Friday!
From The New York Times today.
That stretched-out meat patty (above left) doesn’t look too appetizing… Actually, it kind of looks like a veggie burger, doesn’t it?

There’s a post on Design*Sponge’s guest blog today about Aboriginal art. (Does this mean that in the design world, Aboriginal art is now en vogue?) When I studied in Australia I picked up two pieces of Aboriginal art when I traveled to Alice Springs. Sadly, nobody I’ve lived with ever liked the paintings, so I refrained from hanging them up. Right now my biggest piece, which is maybe 18×20 or 20×24, is tucked away in our storage room, and the smaller piece might still be in NJ.
The ones I have are not as colorful as the paintings in the photograph above. I love how they look all grouped together.
I want my bedroom to look like this:
I love the color: yellow walls, the green chair, the white sheets, the black and white rug. I love how they used mismatching furniture for nightstands. I love how it’s kind of a girl’s room and kind of a guy’s room. I love how it looks put together yet not too overdone.
If you live in NYC you can check out this room in person at Conde Nast’s Dream House, which will be open Oct. 18 to Nov. 15. The Dream House is a townhouse “filled with everything to inspire you for your wedding day, and your life together,” according to the website. It’s eye candy for newlyweds and the newly engaged. I guess you’re supposed to see things that you want to add to your registry.
According to Something Old, Something New, the Dream House will be open to the public for tours, cocktail parties, classes and spa treatments.
It’s times like this I wish I didn’t live in the Midwest! I want to go!
