Seven Quick Takes Friday (Volume 2: Glo-style)  

Posted by The Glo-ness

NOTE: I've been on a major business/finance mental odyssey with a lot of book-reading going on, so a lot of my quick takes are gonna revolve around that. :)

1) In the book, Conspiracy of the Rich, Robert Kiyosaki says that we are headed for a full-fledged Depression in the next few years. Uh-oh...I guess it's time to step up my game (business game, that is).

2) In that vein, I'm kicking around the idea of expanding my housecleaning into running crews or possibly starting another business and phasing out housecleaning. Who knows? In any case I'm restless and need a new challenge. :)

3) There were gay guys KISSING outside my house yesterday morning!!!! I was SO grossed out, I didn't know what to do!!! (Am I allowed to call the cops on them?)

4) I have become a Donald Trump fan. Yes. That's right. THE Donald Trump. I used to think he was just some dumb rich guy, but then I read a book he co-wrote with Robert Kiyosaki (who is one of my absolutely favorite authors) and I found DT to be surprisingly down-to-earth, so...

5) I read the book "Think Big and Kick Ass In Business and Life" by Donald Trump, and well, he's not Catholic, so obviously I didn't agree with everything he said, but for the most part, the book RAWKED!!! I plan on reading it again! :)

6) Wednesday was the Day of Grossness: I dropped my tweezers in the toilet and had to fish them out, and then I found a huge bug on my kitchen floor. Apparently he had passed on, thank God, haha..so all I had to do was sweep him up, but still, it was GROSS. Bugs-Ew!!


7) My Easter dress STILL isn't here, boohoo. Although according the the EMS tracking site, as of April 20th it is currently in Shanghai. Sigh...the wait continues.

Good Quick Takes Glo-ness!!! Sounds like life is pretty crazy with you lately!!!

By the way, after I hosted the first 7 Quick Takes last friday I thought we should rotate them. So this one was Glo-ness and Agnes said she'd take this week. next week is up for grabs!!!

Agnes-
Yes, things have been pretty crazy! An update on the dress though: I just checked the tracking site, and as of 8:10 this morning, the dress has passed through US customs!! Yay!! So now at least it's on this CONTINENT, haha, and I should get it in a few days. :D

Sticky-
Schpanks! (that means "thanks", for the uninitiated) I think rotation is a great idea-maybe we can get the Viking to do one? Hmm, hmm? (John are you reading this?) Or maybe Ig? (cue the "Psycho" music)

Hey Glo, did your Eas...I mean, Ascension Dress arrive yet? Btw, the link didn't work right.

Grr! That link doesn't always work, as it's a foreign website and their website isn't that predictable. Try this one:

Yes, the "Ascension" (clever!)dress came on Monday, and I was thinking of posting a pic of it, but seeing as how no one else has posted, I didn't want to be Miss Blog-hog and post twice in a row.. >_<

Although in case inquiring minds want to know (cough, cough, Ines!) I'll be wearing it this Sunday, so yay!

April 29, 2010 at 3:24 PM

yay!!! i can't wait to see it on you!

April 29, 2010 at 3:58 PM

I suppose you shall have to post a pic of you wearing the dress in lieu of another link.
