Happy Pi Day!

I wish I was celebrating Pi Day (nerd, I know) by eating some delicious pie, but alas, I'm trying to get back on the good eating track. Luckily, its been going well lately, and I have lost about 2 pounds lately without trying all that hard. Maybe it has something to do with starting to attempt to run? I'll take it no matter what! Its supposed to be 81 degrees here today, and I'm hopefully going for a neighborhood walk/run after work today. Definitely looking forward to that.

I'm also looking forward to lunch today. I'm meeting with a fellow Wake grad who contacted me because she is in the job market. I hope I can help her out, and I'm always excited to meet new Wake people! I remember being so thankful for anyone who would offer to help me or even just chat with me while I was looking for a job, so hopefully I can pass that on to her too, or maybe even make a new friend.

In other news, my spending has been slightly out of control in February and March. I think I'm going to attempt to make April my second "no shop" month of the year. J. Crew has been seriously killing me lately though. They do spring clothes better than absolutely anyone. My two biggest splurges of late were at the J. Crew outlet and the regular store at Lenox Mall. Luckily I managed to get most of everything I bought on sale, so for the amount I spent (too much), I actually ended up getting a lot of items that I'm obsessed with. I also finally splurged on a full price swim suit, but sometimes you just have to, right? I'm also jumping on the neon/bright color bandwagon...not that I haven't already been on it for practically my whole life. Those of you who know me know this is true. Here are a few things I picked up:







I only wear J. Crew shorts because I love the fit, and with long legs, a 5 in inseam is your best friend. Anything shorter just makes me look crazy. Now I just need to banish myself from the malls for a little while until I can control myself. Right now I can't :)
