I <3 My UPS Man

I only love him when he delivers my package to me and not my neighbor. I had to clear that up because I have always been very resentful about the time that UPS delivered my plane tickets to some random neighbor that I bought when I was drunk on priceline.com. When they couldn’t track them, they basically told me I was SOL and priceline wouldn’t do anything about it either. This was a round trip ticket to Rome so I was pretty upset as you can imagine. This was pre-electronic tickets so you had to have the paper tickets. Eventually I went all around the neighborhood asking if anyone had accidentally accepted my tickets and I tracked them down. Fuck you UPS and Priceline. That trip was awesome, by the way…even though I got the flu when I was in Italy by myself in the dead of winter. Ah…to be young, retarded and carefree.

I really wanted to go see The Dictator today so I went to a super early showing in order to avoid crowds. I hate crowds. It was really dumb so watch it at your own risk. Borat was a gem. Bruno and The Dictator? Not so much. Because I was so disappointed by The Dictator, I sneaked in to see The Avengers. I know, how very Jr. High of me. I just didn’t have that much going on today and I thought I might as well watch a movie…or two. I loved The Avengers!

Back to UPS: I had two packages waiting for me when I got home: my nails inc. set from Sephora and my 4 Deborah Lippmann polishes from HSN.

Before you think I’m insane for buying all those Deborah Lippmann polishes, I have to confess that they were on clearance at HSN. Each duo was priced at $9.95!!! Can you believe it? Thanks to Vienna’s post, I jumped right on these. She has some swatches up if you want to see what they look like. This is my first DL purchase so I’m glad I was able to get such a super deal. I can’t wait to try them out.

I am really excited to see what happens on Grey’s Anatomy tonight. Any other fans out there? Who do you think is going to die?????

Oh yeah! I forgot to mention that I did get my dog letter from my psychiatrist and I sent it off to my landlady. Now I just have to wait to hear from her so that we can talk about the pet deposit. I hope it’s not a super ridiculous amount. Here is a copy of the letter. It seems so basic that I am a little concerned that it won’t be enough. My psychiatrist did tell me that they try to make it as vague as possible for confidentiality reasons. I’m sure they don’t want to advertise: Hey, your tenant is cray-cray!

So keep your fingers crossed for me. I am sooooo close to getting my pup pup. 🙂

  1. I've never tried Nails Inc – I can't wait to hear what you think of them! And yay for puppy! What kind (sorry if I missed that part).

    1. I'm going to be getting a wheaten terrier. They are such clowns…they act like puppies their whole lives. 🙂

      I love nails inc. If you try them out, you won't be disappointed. The colors I have already are very dark and saturated so these more muted colors will be interesting to try.

  2. Thanks for the link love! 🙂
    How are the Nails Inc creme polishes? All I have are magnetics and a glitter. I love the magnetics, but I confess I have only swatched the glitter and apparently didn't love it much because I've never actually used it lol
    I just get so caught up looking at the Nails Inc page and going, "I bet Zoya has a dupe for this. For a dollar cheaper!" Lol it's so weird the things I randomly become cheap about :/

    I can't wait till you get your wheaten!! I expect a zillion pics!!!

    1. Personally, I love their cremes. I think they are so beautiful and the formula is great. Warwick Way stains a la OPI Fly so I have a love/hate relationship with it. I actually thought about getting a couple of their glitters until I got the wet n wild versions.

      You are so NOT cheap…just smart! And because nails inc. is .33oz, it's way more expensive than Zoya.

  3. I adore nail deliveries! I've got a list going that I want to order but I have to wait because I don't want them to come while I'm out of town next week. Sadface.

    1. Me too! I get so excited to rip open the boxes. lol I have two last pending deliveries: one from cult nails and one from beauty.com (i bought one RGB and 2 SpaRitual)

      Ooohh…what's on your list?

      1. Mostly some spring Essie's and some Dare 2 Wear polishes. Lately I've been feeling a little blah and having a hard time even picking out colors to wear!

  7. I laughed out loud at this post, "to be young and retarted" and drunkin priceline shopping! So excited about your pup!! 😀 I cannot wait to watch Greys' I DVR'd it and will watch it tonight. so dont tell me!

    1. Ghaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Did you watch it already? What did you think?

      Young and retarded almost always go together. lol At least in my case they did. 🙂

        1. It was sad!!!! I liked Lexie's character as well as Teddy's. I thought it was dumb how no one realized they had crashed…that just seems incredibly unbelievable. I want to know what happens already!!!!!!!!

          1. Me too, I was like this CANT be the finale, they cant really make us wait, there is sooo much left in the balance. Derek's hand looked BAD, will Mark survive? how long will it take to find them? what will happen with Kempner and Avery, what will Kempner do, what will happen with Hunt and Christina now or will she still move, will any of them still move… ahhhhh

  8. I don't know about the laws in the USA, but in Canada, no one can legally stop you from owning a pet. Even if you get an apartment that says "No pets" it is still legal to get a pet at a later date, and they can't do anything about it. However, if I were to move into an apartment that says no pets right this second, I would be denied because I already have a pet. Go figure. But there is something to be said about respecting the land lady's wishes. Going through these requests shows you are a compliant tenant, and you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. Every day is a day closer to Alfie!!

    1. That is kind of weird, no? I mean that you can get a pet afterwards but can't start out with one if there is a no pet policy. There are tons of places here that don't rent to people with pets so I worry about having to move later on and having issues with finding a place that will take pets.

      One of my neighbors secretly got a dog and someone ratted him out so he was forced to get rid of it. I didn't feel that bad about it because no one likes him so whatever.

  11. That is ridiculous about the tickets!!! THEY deliver them to the wrong person and then it's just like "oh well now you can't go." WTF!!?? I'd be so livid. It's good you found them but what a hassle. Im afraid I would never love my UPS man again. That's hilarious you bought plane tickets when you were drunk! I have never bought anything drunk (thank god cuz I don't have the money!! Gaha) but my friend Ryan bought this ridiculously overpriced windchime this one time… What's a 28 year old guy gonna do w a damn windchime?! For some reason he thought it was awesome when he was hammered. We still tease him about it. 😉

    1. I know…I was pretty livid. I don't know what I was thinking when I bought them…I was probably nostalgic. When I used to drink a lot more, I was always very emotional. More recently, I get kind of annoying, then throw up and finally start crying. That's the reason why I don't drink anymore…I don't want to keep losing friends. lol This must have been over 10 years ago and I got a roundtrip ticket for $375…crazy! I was also pissed at my neighbor for signing for the tickets and not realizing they weren't hers. WTF…what was she planning to do with the tickets? She opened the package and all. What an idiot.

      Oh man…I would never let him live that one down. I don't think I've ever known a guy who even had a windchime…unless his gf bought it. lol
