A dream has been realized -- I, Nicky Reynolds, own an authentic Dooney and Bourke. And I ain't talkin' about no bought-on-the-streets-of-NYC-could-be-real-could-be-a-knockoff purse, I actually purchased it at a department store. Out of a locked case. I joke you not, I almost wept with joy. And that your glimpse into my sad pathetic life for the ( Read more... )

Well, here I am in Jersey. I'm pleased to report that I made it relatively unscathed -- no flight delays this time around. Whoo hoo! Yesterday we went into NYC... I spent a shit-ton of money, but oh well. We stalked the handbag vendors (the ones that "fell off the truck") and I wheeled and dealed myself a Coach bag from the new summer line. It was ( Read more... )

The other day at work everybody got this letter stating that the company had miscalculated our bonuses last year and underpaid us and that the owed amount would be on our next check (nice run-on sentence there huh?). Our check vouchers are posted today - my check is for $2,101.11. My back-bonus was over $2,000 - they wound up taking my whole ( Read more... )

Ok it's official - The girls and I are comin' to tear up M-town next month. I'm pretty pumped. Originally Steph was gonna accompany me to Amanda's wedding, but she wound up not being able to so I was gonna hafta go alone. I mentioned this to Meghan and we decided to do a girls' weekend instead - Morgan, Courtney, Meghan, Amber, and I are all going ( Read more... )

T-minus 8 days until vaca! I'm pretty pumped to say the least. I went and got an ID card the other day since Deputy Dickhead took my license when I got my ticket last week so I'm all set. Well aside from the whole packing thing.... lol ( Read more... )

Holy hell, I need to start packing - vaca countdown 12 days (!). We all know I won't worry about 0- it til the last possible moment though. I swear I'm not going out the night before I leave this year. Or so I say. Drunk packing was not cool (all my clothes were wadded into balls) and flying w/a hangover is not something I'd recommend. And besides ( Read more... )

Happy Birthday Amy shanana na na na naaaa!

Well, it's official: I'm headin' back to the Jersey shore next month. I bought my plane ticket on Saturday so on May 28th, I'll be flying out to Newark for a week in the (hopefully) sunshine. The beach opens that weekend too so I'm *planning* to lay out and baste. My cousins and I are gonna head into NYC too, since they live so close and I think go ( Read more... )

It's Friday and I have the day off. Doesn't get much better than this. I had mucho fun last night, maybe a little bit too much. Went to Darcy's for my weekly dose of cheese (mmmm, hamburger ponyshoes...) with Meghan, Teddy, Courtney, Morgan and her new boyfriend, Andy, and then went to Sluggo's to laugh at the people doing Karaoke. Only our drunk ( Read more... )
