My Wish List - The Materialistic One

The Husband is finally back at the office today which means I can send him my Christmas list. I don't mince words... I don't have time anymore to play the dreaded "Nothing and I'm Fine" game. You know the spiel. The spiel that makes every man that is in a long term relationship break into a cold sweat.

Him: What's wrong?
Her: Nothing!
Him: (Desperately wondering what he has forgotten; taking out the garbage or forgetting an anniversary, then venturing further in...) Are you sure you're alright?
Her: I'm fine!
Him : (Crap, crap, crap, crap)

No, Christmas shopping for me cannot be a guessing game. I will be direct and I will be sending him this e-mail today.

Hi Sweetie,

 Here is my Christmas list to make it so much easier for you. Gifts mean you love me, so no pressure! Be creative, but stick to the list. I have marked the ones you can't be creative with *. Love you!!!

 Smoothie to Go* (I know you said it's just like a blender but it isn't because it is a SMOOTHIE TO GO! You saw the video - it's awesome!)


 These slippers* (I know you think they are ugly but I love them and I think they are adorable! Available on Amazon.de, search term: Fluffy slippers)



 Anything fake fur! Fake fur hat, vest, jacket anything! A fake fur hat like this would be amazing! Remember, the bigger the head, the smaller the waist!!



 Bling bling bling! Anything sparkly. The cheapy Chinese store that used to be Syndikat around the corner from us sells fun necklaces. The bigger the better! 

 A new key chain. Also check out the cheapy store referenced above. I loved the one you bought me last year but it broke :( Something sparkly again would be great!

 Anything pink or sparkly that I can write with would be awesome! Like a pink notebook so I can make it my gratitude journal and write about how wonderful you are as a husband.

 A Kindle cover because my Kindle is starting to look like kindling. Pink? Sparkly?

 I love you I love you I love you! Kiss!!

And so there you have it. An easy-peasy list for Christmas. See, I'm not high-maintenance.

A Key Word Post

I didn't have anything specific to post tonight because nothing terribly exciting happened over the weekend. Which is actually a good thing. That means it was a chillaxed weekend with no need to look up divorce lawyers or boarding schools for toddlers. So, that means that I will write things based on some key words... long story short, lots of short stories. So here we go! The daycare: This morning was my morning to bring the Kid. By 8 he was in his coat and shoes and I was in my fake fur vest and heels. We headed out and rounded the corner and walked through the front gate. He jumped out of his stroller and headed to the front door. It was locked. I tried a couple times to open it and the Kid started to whine. One of the providers came to the door and explained the daycare was closed for the day. Apparently it was staff development day and someone (the Husband) did not see the signs up last week that they were closed today. I apologized and tried to call the Husband while tryi

The Way Some People Find my Blog and a Challenge

Image
Now, I am not sure why people read my blog. O.k., there are some reasons that people read my blog... they are interested in autism, they like my use of gifs, they are my friends and want to support me, sometimes I make them laugh, they want to see if they are mentioned in it, they live in Vienna and want to know where I go so they can avoid bumping into me... I don't have a sophisticated stat counter on my blog. The only thing I can really see is the number of page views, which countries those page views are coming from and what people search for and somehow end up on my blog. So I decided today to post the most common terms that bring people to my page. And some of them are amusing. Pros and cons to living in Vienna : This one is pretty understandable. I did a whole "pros vs. cons" post a while ago. I think if I had to move to a new city I would most likely type in the same thing. As well as, "average price of alcohol".

How to Dress Rich - Old Money

Image
Back in March, the Husband and I enjoyed an amazing night at the Bristol. It was a gift from my parents and probably the most amazing thing about that night was that we got a complimentary upgrade. We laughed, we danced and then I stopped and said in a serious tone to the Husband "It's cause we dressed rich an you know it." And then I danced some more and drank Moet Chandon straight from the bottle. I have class and you know it. Dressing rich is not that hard and doesn't have to cost that much. Now I am not talking about Kardashian rich (that money is the money of Satan), I am talking old school money, country clubs and drinking scotch. Here are some tips to how you can dress to look rich for different occasions (please note that this is in no way making fun of rich people, poor people or any people. This is based on observations on my part and the deep seated desperation of wanting to be a rich WASP from the East Coast. Pick me!). Dressing old school money pretty m
