What's in that?

I do a little online shopping and I get a free sample and hear about apparently this "most expensive perfume in the world." Who needs that? Over $300 a pop and marketing it as an aphrodisiac? What's in that? Satan juice?

WOTW
amuse bouche. noun. A small complimentary appetizer offered at some restaurants.

Dunkin' Donuts Airport Locations, and What I bought at Albertsons.

Because America runs on Dunkin'.

PHL Philadelphia International Airport: Terminal B. A short walk away from Terminal A.

DCA Reagan National Airport (Washington, DC): North Pier, Center Pier, and South National Hall! You are now my favorite national airport.

Chicago O'Hare airport: Terminal 3. Open 6am-10pm. (http://www.flychicago.com/ohare/concessionsohare/OhareFoodBeverages.shtm) This airport sucks, however, as each terminal has long and angled out corridors so if you don't have enough time to walk a few miles between flights, I suggest you just get to your gate and stay PUT. Next time, Terminal 3 DD. There will come a time.

What I bought at Albertsons'
My grocery receipt included the following:

tortilla chips
salsa
Lu cookies
mini oreos
multi-grain bread
vanilla yogurt
frozen chicken strips
chocolate fruit dip
red seedless grapes

I may have had the munchies at the time.

COTW: French cookies.

Fast forward, s'il vous plait.

Let's skip the bs and get to Friday already. Life is short.

Should I get rid of my car?
I've been thinking. What if I got rid of my car? I took it in for it's overdue round of service - let's see, what was that, $2-300? Then I'm renewing my insurance policy on it so there's the monthly insurance payments to the tune of $100/month. Such a burden. Car is king in LA, I know; but, alas, it's become luggage. Having to traipse around LA trying to find parking. That keeps sucking money out of you...

So this is what my life has come to. Reviewing my car insurance policy. That's the most important thing on my to do list these days. That and filing my taxes (still haven't done them), getting the button sown back on my jacket, and doing the laundry this weekend. But no one really talks about all that. And why would they?

Why can't men be like Europe?
Europe is just as old and charming and romantic and beautiful as I remember it to be. Why can't more men be like that? Hmm. Well, minus the 'old,' of course.

And, as much as I'm trying not to rub it in, it is really nice to get out of LA. Honestly. Really, really, really nice.

COTW crush-of-the-week

Spotted: the matching shirt and ascot combo. Niiice. If you don't ask me out by next week, maybe I'll have to ask you out myself. Yeah! No - don't make me do that.

People who like pie. And, of course, House of Pies on Vermont.
