props to target.

i've been listening to the radio a lot lately since 103.5 is playing christmas music all day! in doing so, i have had the pleasure of hearing quite a few target radio commercials. let me tell you, they are hilarious. no joke. if you get a chance to hear any of them, you will NOT be disppointed.

since they don't really have radio commericals on youtube, here are some funny tv commercials i found. props to target. enjoy!

Is it working?

Confession.

Gift exchange.

rain and very a cold 50 degrees.

it's cold today...by california standards at least. i was talking to a co-worker about how cold it was, and a few ladies from kansas city (who are visiting our office) were laughing at us because the high is 22 there. my, how a measly one year in california, can change the way your body reacts to the weather!!

also, happy 18 days until christmas!!! so great. and i'll be flying home in 16!! yay, can't wait.

so, it's official. we no longer live in the bug apartment. yes. and i put up my christmas tree on saturday night while drinking eggnog and listening to christmas music. it's definitely christmas time.

when it rains, it pours. believe me.

for those of you who don't know, i moved! but it wasn't exactly a joyous event. the night i was moving my stuff to our new apartment, i flipped on the lights and what was it that awaited my arrival? roaches. wow. so i've been working on getting out of the bug apartment for the past two weeks. and it has been quite stressful. finally the administration decided we needed to leave the bugs. thank you! i've been saying that all along.

in the mean time, thanksgiving happened and it was really great.

adam and ivan cooking the FEAST of a breakfast! (adam can make scrambled eggs!)
yum.
thanksgiving dinner!the kitchen crew :)what everyone was thankful for.
after thanksgiving was another story. let's just say, i locked myself out of my apartment, got a flat tire on the way to the airport, and took nasty fall while running and messed up my shoulder. it's time for it to stop pouring down rain.

but i will not be defeated!! ha!! it's finally the christmas season and my favorite time of year. i hope it brings joy, laughter and hope to everyone!

peppermint hot chocolate.

i've been checking my usual blogs thinking, 'wow, people haven't been updating lately' and realized that i haven't either!

this past week has been one of the most stressful weeks i've had in a very long time. pretty much dealing with moving and bugs and standing up for my rights as a tenant! i am very glad it is friday, but i feel like my bug issues in my current apt aren't going away anytime soon. time for new action to deal with this problem.

on a lighter note, 103.5 is playing christmas music already! and i drank a peppermint hot chocolate from a holiday cup this morning. contentment :)
