hola, diego.
i can't tell you how much i want to be at target right now to check these out.
...t minus 33 minutes...

Target, $22.99
no more sneezing, please.
i don't understand why people come to work sick. it's gross. it's unhealthy. and it does nothing but spread around the office, which, in turn, jeopardizes my health and, ultimately, pisses me off. if i could build a plastic bubble around my desk, i would do it in a heartbeat.
Airborne
Target, $5.69
all the news that's fit to print.
if this were sitting on my desk here at work, maybe it would help me forget my red state (and newspaper) blues.
Newspaper Print Pencil Cup
The New York Times Store, $14.95
if you are vengeful, neurotic and hate your neighbors...
i mean, this is the perfect gift for someone who is as neurotic as i am when it comes to noise, or for someone whose neighbor constantly makes horse noises, hysterically laughs at what seems to be nothing or makes up and performs his own operettas in various languages which may or may not be completely made up.
Revenge CD
UncommonGoods, $20
bag.
the good thing about checking anthropologie's web site and not seeing anything new or fantastic is that everything you loved before is probably on sale.
fuji apple tote
Anthropologie, $94.95 (on sale)
despensing delight.
imagine the possibilities with this little contraption. cereal, candy, granola. the possibilities are endless! plus, your kitchen could look like a candy store, which is a culinary aesthetic i've always tried to achieve.
Indespensable Countertop Dispenser
The Container Store, $59
grapefruit fan.
i like all things citrus, especially fragrances when it's warm.
Jo Malone
Gloss.com, $50-$95
[can't think of a title...what is wrong with me?]
ok, i'll admit i completely just jacked this from lucky's picks of the week or whatever, but it reminded me that i once wanted this. 'butter shine' sold me. perhaps, now, it's time to buy some.
Clinique Colour Surge Butter Shine Lipstick
Gloss.com, $14
i judge books by their covers.
i am completely drawn to book covers in a way i shouldn't be as a quote-unquote word person.
By Its Cover: Modern American Book Cover Design
Veer, $29.95
men are from mars...
this looks like fun in an assembly-required kind of way.
Mikro-Man Mars
Veer, $18
a virtual-type gift.
so i was going to get this for my boyfriend for valentine's day, but it's been out of stock for some time now. so i figure it's safe to share my secret now and make you want the unattainable, too.
Kern Zip-up
Veer, $68
cute.
fresh out of quips tonight, so all i can say is this is cute.
large bee necklace
smallthings designs, $80
this skirt earns points...
for coming in this fantastic green. i can't wait for my legs to be free from the everyday pants rut i call winter. it would be nice to stock up on this skirt in every color.
Fine Jersey Drape Skirt
American Apparel Store, $30
essentially cool.
a new deodorant, thank god. though i am recovering from the problem that once controlled my life, i am still really excited about this new dove product. i haven't found it in stores yet, but i just sent away for a free sample. you can do so, too, if you're a fan of hot deodorizing action.
Dove Cool Essentials Deodorant
drugstore.com, $3.99
45 years later? wow.
holly golightly has never seemed so young.
Breakfast at Tiffany's (Anniversary Edition)
Amazon.com, $13.99
1 to the power of 10.
it's hard to find good music by women that isn't annoyingly depressing or man-hating. now, don't get me wrong...there's always a time and a place for that. luckily for me, it's neither the time nor place right now.
The Greatest, Cat Power
iTunes, $9.99
your curiosity will have to wait until tomorrow.
it's nearly impossible to be depressed when you're listening to jack johnson, which is why i'm very excited to see this. i mean, the man made the soundtrack for curious george. what's not to love?
Sing-A-Longs and Lullabies for the Film Curious George, Jack Johnson
iTunes, $9.99
to be blunt...
so i just happened to stumble upon this today. and by stumble, i mean i clicked on the top downloaded song on itunes. on any other day, my eyes would pass over 'today's top songs' which would typically include such great musical acts as slipknot or ashlee simpson, but, with a name like blunt, you can't help but click. so i did, and this fine young bloke failed to disappoint with 'you're beautiful' and every other song i sampled. he's like a more attractive, modern-day rod stewart. and you know how i love me some rod.
Back to Bedlam, James Blunt
iTunes, $11.99
best find of 2006, part 2.
these are fabulous. i would have put more photos but there were way too many that i loved.
folded notes
Carrot & Stick, $16 (eight notes and envelopes)
best find of 2006.
ok, with this site, i don't even know where to begin. i can hardly contain myself without my coworkers noticing. i really just want to scream because it is so great. and, jesus christ, it's all done by letterpress.
thanks again, times style section. and thank you, susie gelbron and julie walker. you truly are gods.
note book in versailles orange
Carrot & Stick Press, $5
attn: short girls.
thank you, thursday styles, for uncovering and exploring the plight of the vertically challenged in this hard-hitting expose on the obviously biased denim industry.
nice jeans would be a luxury and maybe an incentive to lose some weight, so it's good to know i can find them in something other than a 36-inch inseam.
Joe's Jeans Provocateur
Joe's Jeans, $158
my eyes hate me.
it's definitely time for new glasses...this is what i have in mind. something a little thicker, but also lighter in color, than what i have now.
Vera Wang V49 eyeglasses
eyeglasses.com, $162.50
love this song.
my itunes has finally failed me. nowhere on it or anywhere else on the web can i get 'someone like you' right now. thanks to tonight's bridget jones reunion, i can't get it out of my head.
[editor's note: thank you, jenkin, for coming to the rescue with this one. the ever-elusive 'someone like you' is now in my hands.]
Poetic Champions Compose, Van Morrison
Amazon.com, $9.97
a nice piece o' furniture.
there was a point a few months ago when i realized i didn't feel like a real grown-up because i own a very limited amount of 'grown up' furnishings. my bedroom furniture comprises mattresses on the floor, a weird little unit my ex-roommates' ex-roommates left in my old closet and an 'entertainment center' that was a child's desk left in the basement of the house i lived in when i was 5. so, yeah, i could use some upgrades.
Pablo 7-Drawer Dresser
Target, $299.99
yeah, so shoes from payless aren't the best quality.
and it's also hard to come across a decent pair. but maybe with this really cute shoe being so open, the fake leather won't make your feet smell. but so what if it does? because you paid $20.
Exotic Platform Sandal
Payless ShoeSource, $19.99
blue suede shoes?
these shoes are so pretty for such a nice price. bow-clad shoes aren't normally my thing, but they work with these without being ridiculous.
Modern Love Suede Heels
Intuition, $65
flips flops everytime, all the time.
i'd probably venture to say that these are more of a lime and less of a lemon.
havaiana flip-flops
goclothing.com, $12
mr. suicide, bathe with me please (to the tune of 'mr. sandman').
this is a lot cooler (and much less gross) than the stopper that was (still is) in my bathtub when i moved in.
mr. suicide bathtub plug
hive, $27
i promise to be skinny...
if someone will buy this for me. now.
Oragami Dress in olive
Active Endeavors, $240
the future's so bright, i gotta wear shades.
these glasses (in green) might be exactly what i need to replace my current green ones. plus, these might even be bigger (hence, cooler).
i'd also take the jackie o's in both black and white, as well as the jessica pair. i mean, if you didn't pick up on it, they're $8 apiece.
lindsay sunglasses
fredflare.com, $8
more plates to not use.
i think that if i actually had all of the colorful things on this blog inside my house, i would throw up and go crazy. but they're fun separately, aren't they?
tweet dinner plate set
fredflare.com, $36
so effing funny.
while the message is certainly the best part of this t-shirt, the fact that the print is actually on the inside is mind-bogglingly cool.
Die Hipster Scum T-shirt
Urban Outfitters, $24
