Overwhelmed


Total blog abandonment this past week... really sorry about that!!

I feel completely overwhelmed, and it's starting to really get on my nerves... I've gotten to the point where I really can't tell if it's my fault and how I can fix it. I keep forgetting important things, I plan to do fun stuff and completey forget that I had other plans, I woke up waaaay too late this weekend, ergo I had no time to do stuff.

How do you get organised?? Why do I feel like I'm always running everywhere?? Argh! Totally sick of it! Hopefully this week will be a bit smoother...

Hope you had a great weekend!

Fat girls tea time


Looking at this picture reminded me of our Fat girls tea party: a long standing tradition among my friends: we all get together at someone's house on a weekend afternoon and we have to contribute a baked -if home baked even better- all-fattening item.

It's too bad I recently started a diet I'm seeing NO results from... looks like I'm going to have to do a whole lot of jogging to actually get anywhere... seriously, how do people do this? How does one stay focused on a routine and a specific diet, when all you're brain is yelling (in a very Homer Simpson sort-of-way) "Mmmm.... chocolate cake!!"

Girls! We haven't had a Fat girls tea party in a while!! When's the next one??

Girl power!


Hello dears!! Happy belated Women's Day to you all!!! How did you spend your weekend? Mine was a very femenine, very casual and very lazy. I managed to sleep all those deprived hours, do some good reading, then read a lovely girly magazine, did some baking, caught a girly movie and I actually went jogging (gasp!) and run half the lake (double gasp!!). And I loved it! I got to see the sunset reflected in all sorts of fucsias, purples and blacks on the lake, although returning home when it was dark was provably not the brightest of ideas... Anyway, it was fantastic! :)

It's a terribly busy day at the office today, but I didn't want to miss the chance to say HAPPY US DAY!!

xoxo

Have a lovely weekend!



The weekend is here!!What are you up to?? I have nooo idea. I wanna do something fun but I haven't thought of "what" just yet. I'm open for ideas! I might sneak to the new art gallery that opened right accross from my office, here in Puerto Madero. It's supposed to be really cool, at least from an architectural point of view.

It looks like it's gonna be gorgeous, something outside is a must to enjoy the last days of summer. And as a sneak peak of the upcoming winter: I have to have that coat, that dress and those shoes. Seriously!

Bon weekend!

Tae bo junkies


These are absolutely random thoughts that occured to me last night at the gym, so you know that nothing good can really come out of it... please bare with me.

But as I was jumping up un down punching the air I started thinking that I don't really mind the ridiculously buff sweaty instructor, nor the music that's so loud that stops feeling like music and starts resembling airplane noise... what really gets me is the typical gym junkie. The girl in a perfect tan, matching gym gear, make up (I mean, come on! Did you really apply three coats of mascara just to come jump up and down with all of us??), who knows the class better than the instructor, only she does everything one tempo faster, making it absolutely impossible for you on your baggy joggins and uncoordinated limbs to follow the instructor/her on the mirror. I mean, seriously!

More gym thoughts by the end of the week, as S* is making me go back there... Argh!! The gym... why must we??

March (un)resolution...



Argh! What a night!! For the first time in like forever I managed to go to bed before 1am, in a plan to start March more organised, finally getting up at the time I'm supposed to, arriving at the train station on time and never again taking a cab to come to work. My plan was going along fine, until I woke up in the middle of the night due to one of the hardest thunder storms I'd seen in ages.

At 2.26 the skies were falling, I quickly closed the window (I can't sleep with the shutters closed) and all I could see from my pillow was the lightning stiking every five seconds or less and buckets of rain pouring against my window. I do like sleeping through a storm, but this was way bigger than anything we'd gotten lately. I eventually fell back asleep, but I slept like crap and had the weirdest series of dreams I'd rather not name.

By the time I woke up (rather late) I really meant to not take a taxi. I really did, only to turn on the news and find out the train was down, the main accesses from home were blocked by gigantic tree branches and I took the longest taxi drive ever... so much for my March resolution...

Life is too short...

This is for my friend S, who last week decided to put her bitchy boss in her place and take off with her head held high! Some people are just not worth slaving over...

Have a great weekend!! (I know S will!)






I got these in an e-mail, but you can see the whole campaign here.

Pergamino weekend

I know I promised photos from my minitrip to Pergamino, but unfortunately it rained all weekend long. We pretty much stayed in, baked a lemon pie, watched a movie, chatted for hours, ate merengue out of the bowl, slept in, played board games and got all dressed up to go to a house party.



But I think Pergamino is a gorgeous city, and I just got to scape from the world's most boring meeting, so I'll give you these pics of the last time I was there during the winter. For some reason these happen to be my most visited photos on Panoramio (Google Earth's amazing photo aplication, it's photos you upload on the site and magically pop up on GE!).
