Shop Girl Shares xkcd & Wedding Photos We’ll All Remember*
This weekend has been SO crazy I almost forgot that today was Monday! It was full of weddings (my oldest friend got married… it was a big, beautiful Italian wedding) and my sister gave birth to my first (not-so) little niece, Princess Pea. It was my first time holding a newborn (she was less than 12 hours old when I met her) and there really are no words to describe that experience. She’s just… perfect. But then again, aren’t all babies? ;) I spent today catching up on the sleep I didn’t get this weekend (I got maaaaaybe 3 hours on Saturday night) and had the laziest day ever. It…

Exciting News!!!
Hi lovelies, I’m sorry I’ve abandoned you these past few days… it’s been a little crazy. I haven’t really slept in 2 days BUT I have some exciting news!! At 2:10 am last night, my sister Peeah gave birth to Princess Pea, a healthy, BEAUTIFUL baby girl, and I’m completely in love with her already. She’s absolutely perfect. :) P.s. I promise I’ll come back with details after I sleep. Sleep is good. :)

Anonymity — What’s the Point?
(image found at: http://www.wchstv.com/abc/homeimprov/earlhindman.jpg) I’ve been thinking a lot about anonymity lately. When I started this blog nearly 3 years ago I didn’t want ANYONE to know about it. It was just going to be me and my writing. I quickly realized that that was boring… I wanted more. I wasn’t ready to give it all up though, I still needed my “fence”, (oh Wilson, I heart you!) and so, after laboriously searching for my “new identity”, Shop Girl was born. If you’ve ever wondered why I chose that name, I’ve got three words for you–You’ve Got Mail. I have many, many family nicknames that I love, unfortunately signing off…

Using Cell Phones While Driving – Yay or Nay?
(image found at:http://shabestan.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/woman-driving-car-adjusting-mirror-applying-make-up-and-talking-on-cell-phone-with-multiple-arms-giclee-print-c12351517.jpeg) I really don’t write about serious issues very often. I’m more of a “see the world through rose-coloured glasses” kind of person, hence why I write about cute stories, romance, relationships and love. However, there are a few things that I am fiercely passionate (like shoes) that I like to share with you from time to time. Literacy is one of them (I’m an English teacher, so sue me.. haha). Driving with cell phones is another. A week or two ago the Hubs and I were out with Too Kool and due to some traffic we ended up driving along beside the same car for nearly 2…

Shop Girl Shares Let’s have a cocktail… & U.B.G. Song TWO*
Before I can begin writing this post (which I wasn’t even sure would happen as I am SO TIRED–reducing my thunderous thighs at the gym kills me. haha) I need to tell you all how grateful I am for your continuing words and expressions of support regarding my horrendous job interview experience. I was overwhelmed by the comments I received here, as well as on Facebook and on Twitter (add me!!). Thank you. I keep hearing that I should write a letter to the company and I’m thinking about it. We’ll see. ;) Anyhoo, it’s Monday, which means I get to share two more fabulous sites with you! HOO HAH!…
