The Monkey woke up this morning with a new hairstyle! That’s what happens when I don’t brush her hair after her bath, I guess! And, check out that grog (“grog”=groggy face…my cat Simba gets that all the time, so we call him “The Grog”). But, as you can see from the smiles, she LOVES her new hairstyle! …So do I….

This morning, I went to get Josh breakfast in bed. That was the anniversary gift. It was a big gift because I was exhausted this morning. The Monkey woke up at 4am and was feeding for 45 minutes! …and, because I left the house in jogging pants and no makeup–in time for the morning rush at Starbucks…ack! Luckily, I didn’t see any familiar faces other than the staff (who looked horrified when they saw me! kidding, they’ve seen, like, everyone in the neighbourhood at their worst!).

By the way, Y & R is rocking these days. I hated Sharon a few weeks ago, but, now, she’s looking better and is finally on to Nick and Phyllis–duhhhh! finally! I’m loving this whole scenario. Though Gloria is usually a guilty pleasure of mine, what is she thinking! Don’t do it! We don’t need any more “solvent” disasters on the show. It’s enough that we have to see Sheila again at all (probably with Lauren’s face courtesy of her apparently genius plastic surgeon friend…).

Here’s what my sweety got me for our anniversary. He did well! The new Gucci perfume. He said he tried to get me a more “adult” perfume….So much for my Paris Hilton perfume–another guilty pleasure. Speaking of guilty, I’m starting to feel guilty because the Monkey’s kvetching and I’m sitting here. Later!
