Ladies and gentlemen I’d like to introduce Bubba. Bubba, meet people. 
Obviously, Bubba is my phone and not a pitbull. *shrug* It seemed like a good name for something pink and kinda cute. My mom and I went shopping on Saturday for a couple hours and, as with everything, she was absolutely certain we are not related. She bought a white cotton blouse and a black button down shirt while I traded in Chip (my old pink phone) for Bubba and bought a leopard print clutch. She feels her purchases are useful and practical while mine are not. I disagree. As if a leopard print clutch isn’t uberuseful!
In Other News, my good friend and pretend-cousin is getting married this weekend. *tears* I am ridiculously happy for her, she is an amazing girl and deserves nothing but the best life has to offer. Oh, yeah, and he’s a really great guy. It’s a traditional, five day Indian wedding and so I’ve been super busy with dance practices, prep, little things that have to be done before. I’ve spent lots of time with our other pretend-cousins and we’ve been having a blast wrapping the favors, looking up henna designs, having sleepovers which leave us all very tired at work…
In more Other News, I just bought a stack of books from Amazon which will make their arrival at my house soon. I’m looking forward to it. Among my purchases: My Cousin Rachel, Frenchman’s Creek, Infidel, and A Thousand Spendid Suns, andA Long Way Gone.
Still more Other News, one of my coworkers (a non-singing one) come to my desk today to ask me if he had done something to make me switch desks….meanwhile I’ve been sitting in this desk in this very spot for months. No wonder I am always so confused at work…what with Apple Time and the singing…
Yet more Other News I have decided I have broken my toe. In the millions of hours of dance practice I have put in this last week I seem to have a consistent ache/pain/unpleasant feeling happening in my toe. So. I have, with all my medical knowledge and flair for the dramatic, decided its broken. The solution, in my medical opinion, is a pedicure.

Hey! I just picked up the new Vanity Fair and there’s a page on the author who wrote ” A Long Way Gone”. Dave Eggers wrote the piece- who I adore, almost as much as a new baby kitten. Anyway, let me know if the book is good. If it’s half as good as the authors smile on the back page, it should win a few awards.

Awww that’s a pretty cute phone! I like it… my phones have all been colorful as well (which is weird cuz I actually like black). Aaaah awaiting the arrival of books… seems like quite a week with all your shopping
Very productive!

i like your phone it’s cute. i can’t be bothered with my phone since i got a blog. i just leave it lying around. this seems to bother other people who can’t get in contact more than it bothers me.

Great phone – I would be lost without mine though I have to replace it. I love this one!
The wedding does sound like a busy time but so much fun as well. Can’t wait to hear about it.
Enjoy your weekend Ruby.

Bubba is so pretty and pink. I likey! I agree with your assesment that a pedicure is good for a broken toe. However, it is my medical opinion that a cosmopolitan should also be prescribed!

A leopard print bag is just about the most useful thing I can think of!

Wow, the 5 day pre-wedding celebration sounds like fun!
I second your opinion, pedicure sounds good to me
