I suppose I should have done this earlier in the month, but I love this monthly check-in that I have stolen from Kapachino…

Current Books: I just finished The Wishing Year by Noelle Oxenhandler.  It was a really great book, about a woman who spent a year wishing and hoping for the things she most wanted, and the magic behind it.  It is (thankfully) nothing like The Secret as far as cheesiness goes, and I really enjoyed it.  Right now, I am between a few books: re-reading Anne Lamott’s Plan B: Further Thoughts on Faith and starting Writing Down The Bones and Eclipse (yes, the Twilight one).

Current Playlist: My friend Katy made me a fantastic mixed CD, from which I discovered Sea Wolf, Miracle Fortress and Easy Anthems.  I’ve also been listening to some older favorites like Ingrid Michaelson, Feist, William Fitzsimmons and Kate Nash.

Current Guilty Pleasure: I don’t know that I even feel guilty, but I’ve been logging some serious time watching Flipping Out because Jeff Lewis is hysterical AND I basically want to be Jenni.

Current Color: I love green right now.  I bought a bright green cardigan, and I can’t get enough of it.

Current Drink: Coffee, always and forever.  Oh, and I’ve enjoyed a few glasses of Gewurtziminer lately.

Current Food: I made a huge batch of soup that I’m excited about.  I’ve also been eating a lot of cereal.  What is it about cereal that makes it AMAZING?!

Current Favorite Show: MadMen and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Current Wishlist: Health for my dad.  Not having to go back to work tomorrow.  A bunch of new fall clothes.  A new camera.

Current Needs: My sore throat to go away, and apparently, a big fat root canal on Wednesday.

Current Triumphs: I’ve done pretty well budgeting this month, and my apartment is super clean.  Small victories, people.

Current Bane Of My Existence: My teeth.  Work.  My sore throat.  Your mom.

Current Celebrity Crush: Don Draper, obviously.

Current Indulgence:  I don’t know…sewing supplies?  Nothing, really.

Current Blessing: Vicodin.  Just kidding, kinda.  My boyfriend has been pretty fantastic as of late.

Current Slang: Ugh, no idea.  Probably something super annoying.

Current Outfit: Black dress, green cardigan, black shoes, “A” necklace.  Boring, but cute.

Current Excitement: Going to see “Where The Wild Things Are” in a few hours!

Current Mood: Dreading work and anxious about my dad’s treatment beginning tomorrow!

Current Link: My friends Leslie and Steph are both talented photographers, so I love looking at their pictures!
