Coupon - definition: something I hang onto until it expires.

Not today! I actually used my $30 off any $75 purchase at Express. They had jeans on sale, buy one pair get another at 50% off. I tried on what I thought was every version of their jean in the store (12 pairs) when I was about to give up. Sales clerk says, try these. Eureka! Bought two pairs and got a sequined tank and used my coupon. Never have the planets lined up so perfectly.

Picked up the new Acapulco Chicken Salad from J in the B on the way home. It has lime, celantro, and a little kick. No, it was kickass!

Had a nice dinner at Il Fornaio in Carmel last night. Lost my voice, however, in the process. I sound like Marlo Thomas today. "Oh Donald!"
