Yes, it is absolutely true. This girl has not had nicotine since 9:30 p.m. on Monday, March 19. Yay, me!

One of my absolute favorite wines. (It’s only a fluke that there is a rooster on it.)

So on day 30 you know what I did, right? I called my plastic surgeon’s office and I told them. Yes, I did. I told them, 30 days nicotine free, bring on the blood draw, cuz I am CLEAN, baby!  Let’s get this show on the road, shall we?  I don’t know if I expected balloons and confetti to come out of the ceiling tiles in my office or what, but they are submitting this to our insurance company for approval, and will let me know when they hear something.

WHAT?  That’s all? That’s it?  I don’t know what I was expecting, but that wasn’t it, LOL..

But it’s ok…because *I* know I am a non-smoker. And *I* know smaller shirts are in my future. And I *KNOW* our insurance company is as good as everyone says about approving these kids of things. Right? //hopeful look//

Ok, so boobs and non-smoking aside, it’s Wednesday here, which means Hump Day in many circles. It’s also early evening where I sit, which means we are officially on the downhill slide to WEEKEND!

What’s on my agenda? Well I have a wedding to attend (and photograph) on Saturday. A dear friend and fellow creative is getting married to a music man and I am going to give her wedding pictures as her gift. It will be an outdoor affair and they are talking about the possibility of rain. I certainly hope that I can manipulate a large camera AND an umbrella at the same time, or things could get kinda touchy.

In the meantime, I am hoping to be kicking back with a glass of wine (see the photo-inset upper left, huh?) and chillin’ with Jenny Lawson’s (aka The Bloggess) new book, Let’s Pretend This Never Happened, which I pre-ordered, got an autographed book plate, and am impatiently waiting for.  Now, apparently, my buddy over there at Old Dog New Tits already got hers, and she has been flaunting it all over Twitter, and OMG, I am SO jealous of her!  C’mon B&N…I got the email that it was shipping, let’s get this show on the road already, shall we? There are only two more mellow nights between now and the wedding, so let’s go! (Impatient? Me? NEVER….ok, maybe a little, right?)

The only other thing I have going on these days is trying to find a way to best organize my time. I never seem to have enough of it.

Now that I have let the third job go, I am finding that I am under less stress, have more free time, and rather than working in the studio, I find that I want to PLAY! Does anyone besides me do Facebook games?

It’s not just for Facebook, anymore.

You know, I never really used to. I would sit back and just LAUGH at all these Farmville addicts. (Did y’all know that there is actually a town in NC called Farmville? No, really, there is!  I drove through it several times last year going back and forth to Pitt Memorial-now Vidant Medical Center.)  I was way too busy doing what ever to be playing games on FB.

And then I met Bejeweled Blitz while I was out in Dallas visiting my bestie from high school. And I dabbled a little. Then I dabbled a lot.  And I was told I could get a wad of free coins if I would simply try Zuma Blitz. So I did. And so it began. Bejeweled begat Zuma, Zuma begat some poker, blackjack, and slots. And then came Bubble Witch Saga, Diamond Dash, and OMG, did y’all know that there is a FB version of ANGRY BIRDS?

So now, when there is down time, we’ll grab a glass of wine and head out to the big monitor to pop some bubbles, bust some balls or take out sets of three or more jewels.

So that’s life in my little corner of the world, this week, LOL…

Till Next Time…
