my coworkers think i hate them. i never eat lunch with them anymore (because they always go out and i've been bringing my lunch lately), and i don't join in their office gossip or general jollity. hmm. it might be a temporary funk. *shrug*

i'm AAS -- all about scarves. just ask jon. i'm kind of picky when it comes to scarves. lately i've been partial to cashmere scarves. my favorite is the charcoal grey joseph abboud that i got from bluefly last winter. want to know how i usually tie my scarf? check gap's tying instructions. click on "get the scoop on the hippest ways to style your gap scarf" and look for the "doubled up muffler" style. i first saw girls wear it this way in nyc, and now i've got my coworker (who's from long island!) tying it like this too. i also like gap's "knotted muffler" look -- it's warm and cozy. stylish, yet practical!

i got my digital camera! yay! it's SO tiny and so cute. i'd been thinking about buying the canon digital elph for a few months. tammy also mentioned this camera when i told her i was in the market for a digicam. unlike her, i'd rather have convenience over power -- besides, this one packs a lot of punch for such a diminutive model. and it's so pretty! :)

*sigh* i think i'm addicted to chocolate. i've been eating way too much lately... i blame it on the easy accessibility of it, due to the holidays. tomorrow, i'm going to try a chocolate-free day. wish me luck!!
