What could be more beautiful than the sun rising over smokestacks and a big landfill of scrap metal... ahhh, early mornings on the Mystic River.

Since I had to be at work at the crack of dawn this morning, I plan on busting out at 2pm. But what ever will I do with all that time? Well, there is the Denim Sample Sale at The Castle at The Boston Park Plaza Hotel & Towers from noon - 8pm. Maybe I can beat out the 5:00 crowd and get me some new jeans—which of course I do not need since I just went on a wee spree yesterday.

November = Officially time for Christmas Music

Too soon? It's already been declared official Peppermint Mocha season, so why not go all the way? Today at work, I'm streaming Christmas radio... mmmmm...

Free Drinks AND Shmoozing--what more could a girl want?

BuyYourFriendADrink.com is hosting swanky cocktail parties every Monday in November that include free cocktails. I would shmooze for free, but give me a free drink and I will shmooze your pants off. Seriously.
