xmas spirit?

After working 11 days straight and not really enjoying day light, seeing my husband or lola, i figured i needed to get my schedule together in order to survive december.
Though i truly enjoy my job i miss my day off :( The day when i put my favourite music full blast, clean the house thoroughly, put a mud mask on, watch my american tv shows online, and take lola out for a stroll.
So my week will look like this instead, clean house, eat, make lunch and dinner, get ready, go to work, type emails on the train ride home, come home kiss my husband eat dinner, watch some tv and go to bed. Then wake up and do it all over again. YAAAAY! im not complaining cuz i really like my life, i just wish i had more time to do, well nothing... :D
Im really gonna miss my family this month too, man it gets tough sometimes, but i gotta be strong and be happy that were all healthy and that we will see each other next year.

Well i don´t have much time to write or rant, but im sure that next week ill squeeze some more blog time.
Till then, xoxo

OH! and Xmas shopping here SUCKS everything is so pricey, there´s no sales, i miss HOME!! at least i have some xmas lights on la rambla and a mini fake xmas tree.. oh and lola as santa, gotta love the joy a dog brings into your life!

being sick

A little summary of my weekend: i had fun at my x mas dinner, people really let loose on these events, but it was even funnier to see their faces on monday... alcohol man, it shows true colors!

So yesterday i was feeling pretty good about monday (which is rare) and after running home to meet with jordi i started feeling weird, like i had all this weight on my shoulders and my knees and joints hurt. My throat was hurting also and all of a sudden as we were walking around town enjoying the fair i began to feel like shit.
My eyes were closing and it really was so hard for me to walk. So weird, like all of a sudden i had all this pain and couldn´t bare it, i wanted to cry. We went home and i had some soup, ibuprofen and i laid down.

I passed out and all of a sudden i had a fever :( i was sweating too, i was mad that was sick, because i take care of myself, alot, and now i get sick!!?? really...??

So thank God today was my day off, i made some more veggie soup, took some more pills and decided to glue myself to the couch and try to avoid moving from it all day, so far I'm feeling better, but man i REALLY need to get better, i cannot miss work!
I´ve been searching for the perfect Christmas present for myself and i found it, a Chloé purse, ebay here i come!
oh man im getting the chills again, this is horrible...where´s my husband when i need him? :P

The only bitch i like is lola

So far after many, many years of having girlfriends, hanging out with them, going out, eating, dancing, having coffee, shopping, drama, the works... I´ve come to realize that it takes time to really get to know a girl. there´s nothing more misleading than a first impression. People pretend to be something or someone they´re not to be liked or get what they want. I don´t think using the Marilyn technique is wrong, but i do however believe that being a backstabber and a shit talker should be punishable with jail time.
I go by the theory that everyone has bad days, yes, you are allowed to be sad and disappointed, but i don´t think this means you´re allowed to bitch around all day and think i wanna hear about it.
And lately i´ve been noticing that people have been mistaken my kindness for weakness, and oh no, girl, i am 5 steps ahead of you, this nice girl will not finish last.
With all the things we could be doing with our time, like reading a book, watching a movie, kissing someone, laughing at stupid jokes, why do people feel the need to put people down just to get ahead?
As if creating misery was somewhat entertaining ...
Today i had to shop for a dress, run home, and eat my veggie soup, its so freaking cold outside i refuse to eat salads, even the dressing hurts my mouth. Hi can i have some gloves with my dinner please?

I have my company x mas dinner tomorrow, and I'm still not happy about the fluffy thing i picked out, my husband thinks i look like a parrot with it, he has no clue what he´s talking about, he wears gold sneakers.
I think ill return the 50€ skirt i got and the too small for the huge boobies corset i got and get a cute dress, I'm afraid to shop around here cuz if i do I'm sure someone at the party will have my dress... eeeek

I wish we had vintage shops in Spain, they have no clue what that means...
And you know what i say? i bought a Chanel purse for 300 dlls at Salvation Army once, yeah, vintage of course...
Speaking of bitchiness, i get really annoyed when people don´t make up their mind, show up late, walk fast when were supposed to take a stroll, walk slow when im late for work, cancel appointments, like i have nothing better to do than wait for you, ok so i hate waiting, period.

But it´s not all bad in the wendy household today, im really excited to see what happens tomorrow, getting glamed up is part of my life i can´t wait to see the outcome of extensions, high heels,  fake eyelashes and tight corsets, nice people, good convo and some wine, then maybe meeting up with my 2 girlfriends, who are pretty much the most amazing women around here.
Im a lucky girl in that aspect, as i was saying before it is a tough crowd out there, so much garbage, im pretty good where im at.
And yes, lola is the only bitch i can stand, she is loyal, fluffy and loves me, what more can i want?

Oh and I saw Jordi for like 20 minutes today, we work so much we don´t have any time to chill, I miss my man  :( till Sunday rolls around... hey at least we got love. Real good love.

Lace on face

Today i had an extraordinary day, I bought some shoes, some more black attire and headed to work on an empty stomach. Coffee doesn´t count, even if its a Delicious cappuccino with extra foam. As i was sitting on the metro i wondered  where people learn their manners, if any, they sneeze, cough, make out, and probably fart right next to you, yeah its disgusting, and smelling like garlic and cigarettes at 9 am is really, oh so unattractive...
So as i covered my face trying to ignore the gross smells and the view of my metro neighbors tongue i started to wonder if maybe getting a European licensee isn´t that bad at all, yeah it costs about 1000€ and 6 months of obligatory classes but i wouldn't have to take the train anymore... or maybe i should get a bike instead, parking wouldn´t be so hard that way.
Why did they build Spain all cluttered together without ever thinking about parking spaces? or underground lots? helloooo.
I worked my butt off today, went out of my way to please my clients, and today especial was a day to let them know how much we care, make up is hard to sell now a days, with the current monetary situations, paying 16€ for an eyeliner is sometimes too much, they don´t care if its waterproof and creamy. How do we overcome this?
I try to keep my head up and know that my products are great, so proud to be part of this company and i stand behind every item we sell. really, no joke. And i can honestly say that i love my job so much i don´t mind staying over time, EVER.
So that´s great, wait, no, ITS AWESOME. Anyhow, we decided to create a special look for today by wearing some lace pieces on our faces, with rhinestones, and peacokish makeup to match. To die for. Glamour was meant to be applied, so people, start applying.
I have plenty to rant about i think i need to go to bed first in order to make sense, my eyes are feeling heavy and i still have lace on my face, oh god...
Veggie burger for dinner, playtime with lola, half a movie with jordi, the end. Good Night.
