A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

I have a problem with my "favorites" list. Its over three pages long--and I'm afraid to cut it down. I devote a significant amount of my time here on blogit to read other people, though I do make time to write myself. As you can see, I'm on here quite often, or more than I should be! Anyways, I can't seem to bring myself to pare down my list because I feel so bad about doing so.

Its a small one (about a foot tall), that my mom bought for us... but its a real, live Christmas tree all the same! The packaging was actually a small plastic bag and it came with the lights and ornaments included. It's a very cute tree!

...more so than I've had in a long time, what with Thanksgiving and all. I spent the morning filling out applications--specifically, to the Ann Taylor Loft and the Barnes and Noble that are in my neighborhood. Ann Taylor Loft seems like the most promising, but I'll have to see. With regards to the job search, its time I took a step back, and that's what I'm doing; finding a job in retail is fine for the present, or until I can find a real job. For the Ann Taylor job, I had to do a Web... Sign in to see full entry.
