I got a black asymmetrical wool coat from express and didn't know I'd love it so much. It fits like a dream! Can't believe I got it for 34.xx! Will post photo in a bit. Too bad it's so hot here... I want to wear it! Plus it's 60% wool and not at all itchy... The other wool coats I've gotten fr express were all somewhat itchy to me so this was a surprise.

Thanks!

No, when you call and ask about your card, or to ask what your anniversary month is, ask for one.

DH has a nokia 1208 prepaid tmobile phone... with the $100 for 1000 minutes no contract option, he spends roughly $150-200 a year for it... not bad at all, but if you look up that model phone, it's as basic as it gets... he'd probably be mad at me if I bought him the latest slickdeal for a smartphone that would work on a prepaid tmobile plan.

The smaller ones seems like the best option to suggest to my FIL to buy for mothers day.. She doesn't drink too much coffee, but she'd also be annoyed with having to wait for it to heat up with the mini..
I passed on the mini too for dh's apartment in Chicago. Just too much work.

It's this one:

Don't like it half zipped but fully zipped is really cute! I got a s which I think is more my size as far as coats go.

Oh man, what a fantastic week. Over the last two days, I just learned I won a big teaching award (cash prize), research fellowship (research cash prize), and I submitted a photo for my gym's photo contest (cash prize), and i won that as well. It's a pretty cool picture of me kicking over a 6 foot bag and above my head. I'm feeling really good today, which is nice, considering how down I've been about school lately.

On top of that, earlier this week, I used an AR to get a Plumtastic Unforgettable top. Well, I was just checking through clearance, and item CD-292-549 is available in Plumtastic in my size for $7.99. Sure beats the $28.50 bottoms I had put off buying because I didn't like them that much.

What luck.
wow lotto ticket next! and think of me when you win that too! Wink

I like the medium blend Starbucks cups. I think breakfast blend is my fav. Dunkin doughnuts are better. Try those.

i don't need to look it up to know which phone you're talking about (phone geek here). the problem with smartphones (or any phones with a touchscreen) is that battery life is abysmal. you go from 3-4 days with the candy bar phone to <1 day with the touchscreen smartphone. your DH may actually be upset with that... since it doesn't seem like he uses his phone that much.

that said, heart nokia, even though they went with winmo. i own one but i don't use it. (actually i own at least 3 nokias... but let's not talk about that)

i would advise against the mini. get a larger one - it's worth the convenience of not having to fill it up each time you make coffee. if she doesn't drink too much you can just get the b40 but i love the timer function.

got this dress in xs and s. i only got to try the s but it seemed to fit me fine (similar to the model). not sure if i need the xs. however, it's kinda a simple/basic dress. not sure if i like it enough for $18.

got this dress in the blue, xs. it fits ok - better than i expected actually. it needs a belt but i might keep it to wear with a belt.

Very cute coat..

I have purchased DH 3 nokia's total, 2 of the 1208, and 1 1616... the 2 other nokia's were meant as backup phones.. DH has had the same 1208 since 2009 or so.. it hasn't failed him.. he lost it on a bus one time, I deactivated it by phone, and called port authority, someone had turned it in, and he got his phone back..

Just 2 weeks ago, I got DH's mom a nokia 1616 also, she wanted a small phone and was actually considering the jitterbug! She doesn't even use a phone, she just carries one sometimes, but she's almost always reachable with a landline.. I told her she can load it for $100 and it'll be good for a year for her limited use.. Had to set it up for her and everything since I don't think she'd have taken the extra step.. Her birthday was in march, told her it was a late b-day present, had told her I was going to get one for her, but the ebay auction took time to end, and also took time to ship, had to save those extra dollars.. Got it for ~$9 shipped for a practically new phone in box and all the information, (person had used it for 2 weeks while their phone was repaired). Embarrassment
