Where have you been lately Jones?

A number of people have frequently asked me what cologne I’m wearing.  For awhile now I’ve been sporting “LOVE” from the HARAJUKU LOVERS Collection.  I actually had first dibs on this scent before it hit the market - thank you momma!  So, apparently this complements my body chemistry very nicely…ooh and the packaging is pretty too ;-)

Today was a good day
Wrapped up a presentation for Monday, boss loved it. Boss told me to close up shop and enjoy the weekend - it was only 3pm. Drove home while the sun was still out. Picked up my favorite - black tea smoothie, from the tea house. Now, watching 500 Days of Summer on the MacBook in bed - cool out mode. TGIF =)
