Fashionably Undead

I'm not sure if anyone would really be interested in this. But I found it highly entertaining so I figured that I'd share it.

As many of you know. I adore! Meg Cabot's novels. All of them. Even if I've never heard of them before, you can guarantee that I'll be addicted to them. She recently released an Audio Book entitled "Fashionably Undead". Its one of the funniest books I've ever heard. Its about a girl named Carly who is a receptionist for a fashion agency who gets recruited to help fight off the evil running around in the city. What's the evil you ask? While most would assume that its vampires considering the crazy phenomenon, they would be wrong. The evil is, zombie fashion models. (Don't deny it, You've always wondered how they stay so skinny... its cause they're dead... well, undead) She's the 'Chosen One' with her killer spit of doom (thats right. Killer SPIT!) she sets off with the intriguing and hunky Jake to bring down the Queen of the Zombies... Coco Chanel.


The book itself is only an hour and a half long so if you feel like you have time to spare and can listen to a hilarious book (read by the fantastic Sarah Drew). Go here and download it (for FREE!!!!)


In Anna & David news, there hasn't been much going on. Our really good friends got married a few weeks ago, and seeing them so happy has made us want to put more of an effort into the time that we DO see eachother. We just go so used to not seeing eachother, that when we did it just kind of lonely still. So that has helped us a lot. But all in all, we're doing pretty good.

Library Book Sale

When I got to work today, a few gals that I work with informed me that the City Library (at the one that is less than a block away from my work) was having a sale. After finding this out I knew I HAD to go. I've been seriously failing in the reading department this year, so I decided to go a little crazy today.


I bought NINETEEN books. "Well how much did you spend Anna?" You ask?

A year of helping to make a difference!


This year I am determined to help make a difference in the world.... Okay so I won't be doing much, but every little bit helps right????

Last year I really wish I would have known a little more about when and where all the "Walk for a Cure" s were. The Buddy walk, I really wanted to participate in on Justin's team with a whole handful of the rest of David's family. Unfortunately I missed it.


This year will be different. First I'm starting with the Lupus Walk for my best friend's sister, Melissa, on May 1st. I've watched Meghan be worried about Melissa so often I felt like I was going through it as well. So this year, I'm making sure to at (the very least) donate to the cause. I'm super pumped for it. Not only will doing all these help me try and stay in shape (*snort* emphasis on the word TRY!) but its for a really good cause.

I'm also going to do the Heart Walk, Breast Cancer Walk and any others that people bring to my attention.

SO! to all those who read this (the whole 3 of you...) let me know if there are any walks for good causes coming up. I'm more than willing to participate!!!

So Much Better

I love this musical soooooo much. Its not even funny. At work that day I was walking around in my 3 inch heels, I did my hair and makeup at 5:00 that morning, so by the time work was over and we were headed to Jimmy Johns for dinner before the show I looked like crap, but I was determined that nothing was going to put a damper on that night. So Julie and I were walking toward Jimmy John's/Capitol Theater only to find this wall that some people had spray-painted with a GIANT squid and octopus.

Me and Jules.
So of course we had to take pictures in front of it....

LEGALLY BLONDE! Unfortunately it's illegal to take pictures DURING the show so this is all I could do.....

All in all it was a good day.

new phone! and a trip to NJ to see my mom!!!

So last night, my blackberry offically went caput! The trackball fell out and I lost it. So as an early anniversary gift from David we went and bought me a new phone.

I've been wanting a new phone for a long time, mainly because my blackberry has been on its last leg for the past month and a half or so. SOOOO I bought the new MyTouch 3G from t-mobile....

*shine*
its sooooo pretty!


like this one *points up* but mine is black with a pink cover.

And I found a really pretty background of new york for it, since I leave on THURSDAY for New Jersey to see my mom!!!!!

my next project is to get a new shell for it... since I end up dropping my phone so much, I want to get a hard case for it....and lucky for me my phone has a 'personalization' option for its shells. I'm going to design my own!!! I'm determined to make a geeky, nerdy one... like....

THIS ONE!!!

with this picture...




is that too pathetic???


On Thursday I fly out with my cousin to see my mom for FIVE days. I'm so excited.
