Is this what they mean by water cooler?

My weekend etsy purchases arrived! And hijirik threw in 2 extra Live What You Loves for me. Gooo Me! Perhaps this has something to do with the fact that I ordered 8, meant to order 9, she read my mind, and thought of a super-special-just-for-Emily deal where she'd make it an even 10.

But the excitement over free stuff was dulled when my purse came in and it wasn't exactly what I expected. Less structured than I had hoped, but I'm still going to use it.

And because this blog is a litte etsy heavy these days (addiction I tell you!), here's a story from last night. So my friend turned 24 at midnight so naturally he had some friends over to help celebrate. He ran out of glasses, so I resorted to rehydrating (post- Boulevard Sampler selections) by gulping from a measuring cup.
Awkward engineer (I can say this because Mr. H is an engineer and only sometimes awkward) walks up to me with his water filled wine glass. He makes fun of my measuring cup and I say that at least I don't have to refill constantly. Then we proceed to discuss my daily water intake (yes, you read right) for a five minutes.

Me:Desperately searching for a way out of the conversation. Trying to make eyes at Mr. H to come save me. Hoping AE notices the bling on my left hand...
Him: "Well the downside to drinking this much water..." walks away and goes to the bathroom!

Who SAYS that? And who talks to a girl about her water intake at a party?

Lesson learned: Drinking from Pyrex measuring cup at a party is brilliant and you should totally try it. But if you do drink from said measuring cup, be prepared for some awkward, creepo conversations. Or just have a safe word for your man to swoop in and save you.
