I'm baaaaaack!

Johnny and I are having problems again......
Now I'm sitting here struggling with the choice of going out with my friends after work or going home and waiting for Johnny to come home. I'm so sick of waiting around for him! I feel like that stupid clingy girlfriend. So I say to myself "Well what do you really want to do? If you want to go out then go out and stop letting him influence your decisions." I don't know what I want except that i wish everything in the last 9 days didn't happen. Actually in the last few weeks....

Ok I just decided...I'm going out with my friends. I'm so sick of forcing myself on Johnny or waiting around for him in the off chance that he will want to hang out with me. What the hell kind of relationship am I in?!?!!

Life is crazy!

I have been so incredibly busy at work lately! That is why I haven't been posting as frequently which bums me out because blogging is like venting for me :-) Being this busy also means that I haven't caught up on reading my favorite blogs so this weekend I'll be sitting in a comfy chair, sipping a latte, having a wonderful time with google reader!

Johnny is sick with a cold. He went to work this morning and came back after 10 minutes. I hope I don't catch it so we'll be very careful about washing our hand and lysoling the doorknobs ;-)

So I'm wondering if bloggers out there have words that you always misspell no matter what. My word is "bus". And it's not that I don't know how to spell it, I do but my finger when I'm typing it always wants to add an extra "s" so it always comes out as "buss". I'm not sure why my finger wants to do this but it always does. I can even be thinking in my head that there is only one "s" and my finger still types 2! I think it's a natural muscle reaction or something. Who knows but I always giggle to myself when I have to type the word "bus" and it comes out as "buss".



Have a great day!!

I love old people!

What I love most about some old people is how quick witted they are! I'm at work and an old guy just stopped by to pick something up. As he is leaving he sees my co-worker who asks him how he is doing. He says " Oh, I'm just trying to survive the heat. I guess it's good practice for the hereafter." HAHA Who comes up with stuff like that?! LOVE IT!

I'm having drinks with my friend P. This is the friend who doesn't like Johnny and so our relationship has been a little strained lately (read more here and here). I have been feeling like I've been making quite the effort to remain friends but she hasn't. She even skipped our best friend's birthday because Johnny was going to be there. Well she initiated having drinks tonight and said she needs my advice on quite a few issues. We'll see how it goes....

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer so far. It's almost a third over!!! EEEK!

Where did the last week go?!

Holy cow! It's Friday again?! The past week seriously flew by, faster than any other week in my entire life!!!! (Ok I'm being a little over-dramatic here...)

I'm so glad that it is Friday :-) My best friend's birthday is tomorrow and we have a whole day of activities planned ;-) We're starting with coffee at his place (he got a new espresso machine and is dying to test it out) and then brunch. Then we want to do a fun afternoon activity like kayaking to just relaxing at the beach. Then we are going to do dinner and a great little Thai place with a fabulous patio to enjoy the outdoors while drinking. Then we're hitting the town! I think I'll be sleep a lot on Sunday.

The last couple of days have been very busy at work so I'm looking forward to a fun weekend!

Happy weekend!!

10 Honest Things
1. I strive to be an outdoorsy girl and while I do love being outside there are times when I just want to plant my butt on the couch and watch TV for hours.
2. Clipped nails are one of the grossest things in the world to me. If I see a piece of nail anywhere I will start panicking!
3. I can't stand one of my co-workers and I'm not sure what to do about it.
4. I have a very suspicious nature.
5. I love to read! And I love all kinds of books from trashy romance to historical biographies.
6. Although I'm a control freak I'm not a very tidy person. I really have to make an effort to keep my apartment looking nice.
7. I need to take about 20 interior design classes because no matter what I do I feel like I have no fashion sense when it comes to decorating.
8. I love working under pressure. At work, sometimes I leave projects to the last minute on purpose because I feel like I work better that way and I like the excitement of trying to get it done quickly.
9. I love Target a little too much.
10. I'm meeting with my financial advisor on Monday and he is not going to be happy with my spending in the last couple of weeks. Oops! Maybe I won't be completely honest with him about that...

A better Friday post :-)

I got home from work today and there was a package for me sitting under my mailbox!!!!!



It was my dress from Rue La La!!



I immediately ran up to my apartment, tore open the box, took the dress out of the packaging, and tried it on. (I was super excited about getting a package and very nervous that the dress wouldn't fit or would look stupid.)

And......the dress looks fab on :-) It fits me really well and I'm very happy with it. I think it's the perfect thing to wear for the garden wedding I'll be attending in 2 weeks. The only problem with the dress is that it has pockets (I detest dresses with pockets) which are too bulky and make me look wide. I'm going to have my expert seamstress (mom) cut out the pockets and sew them shut and then the dress will be perfect!

The other 2 dresses I ordered should be arriving today! (Darn, I should have bought them on different days so that I would have packages on different days...oh well!)

Happy day!!

PS- I've been a little obsessed with clip art lately which explains all the cutesy little pics! hehe
