File #76 something bad.

Well- something bad is that Agent Rhinestone's UGG's melted. She set them next to the heater to dry after a particularly long walk in the snow and forgot about them. The next morning one of her UGG's was twisted into some sort of clubbed looking foot shoe glob blob.

Oh dear.
Agent Rhinestone may be exaggerating just a tad for dramatic effect. I mean- she can still wear them they just feel kind of weird.

In other news:
Has anyone ever heard of "Wrap Rage"?
Wrap rage (or wrapping rage or package rage) is the common name for heightened levels of anger, frustration and violence resulting from the inability to open hard-to-remove packaging.[1]

This seems very bad! A lot of holiday accidents occur because people actually injur themselves as a result of wrap rage.
Holiday tip #1:
Please be careful. If you feel yourself becoming weirdly rageful- put down the packaging and have a spot of cider or a glass of vodka... or something!!!

File #75... brrrr...Snow Day #6???

Rhinestone has lost track of how many days the Seattle streets have been absolutely covered in snow. The mornings have been full of powdery tromps to the Vivace for coffee- the evenings complete with slippery sloped walks to the movie store and hours spent nestled indoors with BF Rhinestone, Fancy D and Sparkle. Even Mr. and Ms. Sexpot zoomed over from West Seattle to partake in the city's wintry wonderland. Sledding down Denny in kiddie pools or atop garbage bags, old street signs and boogie boards...is the perfect way to spend an evening.

Now Rhinestone will attempt to brave SeaTac airport... for the hopefully short trip home to California. She can't wait to see her lovely, lovey little family.

Before leaving... Rhinestone has just got to finish wrapping gifts!

This years gift wrapping designs will include:

Recycled Salmon colored wrapping paper.

Black Satin Ribbons.

Vintage inspired silver glitter'd gift tags...

Tres Holiday... So recycled chic!

File #74 SNOW!

Agent Rhinestone and Fancy Drew just returned from a 2 hour walk in the snow. Rhinestone fell into the splits while tromping down a hill- but managed to keep a good hold on her soy latte.

Fancy fell down a hill and slid all the way down... Rhinestone cried actual tears from laughing.




Snow tip #1... Always wear a dark coat in the snow. This will allow you to see the beautiful individual flakes more clearly. They'll fall on your coat perfect and sparkly. They melt within seconds- so be sure to keep a close watch.

Snow tip #2... You don't really need to wear blush- because your cheeks will get rosy naturally from the cold air. (Agent Rhinestone made that mistake this morning. She looked like a sleepy Grandma.)


Well that's all for now.
...Time to look out the window or perhaps take an other little tromp outdoors.

File #73 Let it SNOW!

Agent Rhinestone has turned into somewhat of a weather girl... with a little help from weather.com of course...

It was supposed to snow last night and all day today. Fancy Drew got to take the whole day off work because all the Seattle schools were closed. But... there is still no snow!

When is the snow coming? When can Rhinestone don her snow gear? When will an actual beautiful little flake drop upon her brow? Let it SNOW!!!

File #72 Stop the Romantic Comedy...

According to Wikipedia: Romantic comedy films, colloquially known as romcom, are movies with light-hearted, humorous plotlines, centered around romantic ideals such as a true love able to surmount most obstacles. Romantic comedy films are a sub-genre of comedy films as well as of romance films.

Agent Rhinestone has been watching too many romantic comedies. For most people this would not be a problem... but it has given Agent Rhinestone grandiose ideas about love and relationships. She's constantly waiting for the fancy love surprise at the end of a long bad day.

Where is the man in the limo under her apartment window... playing opera music and holding roses... waiting to take her off to some giant fun life situation?

Oh great...

Where is a prince on a unicorn when you need it?

sniffle, sniffle, tear....

File #71. Brr....

Are you there God?
It's me Agent Rhinestone. I'm wearing 3 pairs of socks and UGG's... a giant leopard coat and I'm still just freeze'n.

When you get a chance... can you turn the heat back on...

Sincerly,

Agent R.

File #70. goodbye facebook!

Agent Rhinestone has decided she may be ready to begin exploring the lost art of letter writing and talking on the phone...

In other words... she has decided to delete her facebook profile. Anonymous is the new famous.

File # 69. Christmas in Rhinestone Land.

'Twas a few weeks before Christmas, when all through the flat...

Not a creature was stirring, not even a cat;

The stockings were hung by the bar with care,In hopes that someone named James Blonde soon would be there;

Agent Rhinestone, Sparkle and Fancy Drew were nestled all snug in their beds,

While visions of glittery trees and balls danced in their heads...

Time for Agent Rhinestone to settle in for a long winters nap.

zzzz....

File #68 update.

Just in case anyone was wondering....

Agent Rhinesotne's new earplugs arrived the other day. They are really cute but they don't work at all! I guess it's back to the 33 decibel, bright orange, squishy fuglies.

Maybe the tassle'd Audrey ones could be used for a costume or something.... earplug pasties?

File #67 Voicemail for landlord.

Agent Rhinestone: Hi, This is Fae from The Martha Lee and I was just calling because....
my bathroom sink makes this really loud noise when you turn on the hot water and...
my shower water just turns off right in the middle of my shower and...
the tank in the back of my toilet doesn't really seem to fill up with water unless you pull some hangy thing back there.... and so... I think there may be some sort of plumbing situation going on- but I'm not sure.
Oh.... and my freezer still doesn't work.... which is kind of weird.

So... just like give me a call when you get a chance and have a great day!

File #66. Which Baby Monkey is your favorite?

1. The almost human looking newborn?

















2. The flying monkey?















3. The baby twin finger grabbers?












4.The one in the questionable pose?















5.The tiny almost real fashionista human baby monkey?
















6. or... The monkey with the nice Grandpa man?





















Agent Rhinestone chooses option 1. He looks nice and would probably be okay with wearing a pink sequin'd dress and riding piggy back around the new wing of Southcenter Mall!

Monkey's are the new puppies! Go with it!

File #65 Christmas?

Agent Rhinestone is feeling a bit out of touch with the holiday spirit this year. All she really wants to do is pack up her Louis Vuitton luggage and hit the beaches of Mexico.
Madonna just kicked off her Latin American tour... Why shouldn't Agent Rhinestone?

In conclusion...
Miss Rhinestone is now accepting gifts of giant diamonds, pink ostrich feathers, baby lambs or puppies, designer string bikinis and travel vouchers to Puerto Vallarta.

sigh....

File #64 Agent Rhinestone left MySpace....

After many years of clacking away on myspace..Agent Rhinestone is officially done!

She would like to bid people like Mathew... a not so fond farewell...

File #63 Thanksgiving in California...

Agent Rhinestone cooked dinner while Ma Rhinestone set the table:



She danced with Brother Skylar in the kitchen (sorry the video is sideways.):


Spent almost every second with Sister Lil' Z and the new kitten Lucy:


She and Mamma Rhinestone spent hours in the kitchen talking (we love to sit in the kitchen):


Found pictures of herself when she was just a little Rhinestone:


And... found pictures of her brother and sis when they were teensy:



And... wished for a house just like her Mother's someday...so shabby chic!


And...last but not least- she tried to eat the kitten. She's so small and cute!:
