Thursday Thoughts

- Yesterday was a snow day for me. We got like 14 inches of snow! At first I felt really bad for calling out of work, because it wasn't snowing THAT badly. But then 2 pm hit and the snow was so heavy and it just didn't let up. So I'm happy I didn't get stuck in that.

- This morning, my street still hadn't been plowed yet so I had to get my mom to drive me to the train station. Shockingly, the trains were running on time!

- I really hope we don't get any more snow this year!

- Even though I had off yesterday, I am also taking tomorrow off to go to some much needed Dr's appointments. Because of this, I'm really messed up with my days. I keep on thinking it's Monday because I was off yesterday, and then realize it's actually a Friday for me!

- Monday my office is closed for President's day so I get a four day weekend! Whoo hoo!

- Is anybody else excited to see the movie Valentine's Day? I know a lot of people are against it because it's over hyped and there are a million famous people in it, but I still think it looks cute. I hope to check it out this weekend.

- In sad news, Alexander McQueen committed suicide. He was an amazing fashion designer. No matter how bad your life may seem, suicide is NEVER the answer.

Lat night I went out for some drinks with people from my office. We went to a bar were a freaking cranberry and vodka was 12 dollars!! I wasn’t paying, thankfully, but still. Who in their right mind wants to willingly spend that much money for a drink? They didn’t even have Miller light there! What bar doesn’t carry staple beers like that? They only had “fancy” beer. Give me a bar with 2-dollar beers any night of the week.

Today is my best friend’s 25th birthday!!! She can’t really do anything today because of work and then a conference tonight, but this weekend we will be celebrating her birthday the right way. Lots of booze and dancing! There are about 13 people going out so we all hired a party bus to take us to our destination. I’ve never been on one before so I’m super excited!

What happened to the fall?? The past two days has been hot and humid. Ugh. I’m ready for the crisp air already!

Thursday Thoughts

Have you ever had a friend or acquaintance that you thought that they had a pretty good idea at the kind of person you are and after one simple comment learn that they really don’t know you at all?? Well that pretty much happened to me yesterday. A fellow co-worker basically told me that I’m a selfish person yesterday and it floored me.

Not only is the not true but it is the complete opposite of who I am. I’m not just saying that either. I’m one of those people that needs to focus on herself more and be a little selfish. I feel comforted in the fact that my family and friends, who I told about the comment, were shocked and upset about it. However I am still pretty hurt by that comment and don’t really know how to proceed from here.

My brother is officially done with his job in the Middle East!!!!!!! I couldn’t be happier that he is safe and sound in the US. I haven’t seen him since Christmas and I look forward to him being home in Jersey for a whole week!

Not this Sunday but next Sunday (the 28th) is my birthday! While I’m still not all that jazzed about turning 25, I am excited for the weekend’s festivities. Friday I decided to take off and make it a nice three-day weekend. That night a few friends and I will be going to see No Doubt in concert. I have always loved that group and we got the tickets for really cheap, 15 bucks!

Then on Saturday we are having a big welcome home/going away again party for my brother. He is moving to India for 2 years (long story, but he’s excited about it and that’s all that matters). Tons of family and friends will be coming and I know it will be a lot of fun. Since it’s the day before my birthday I’m just going to say the party is partially for me too. lol.

I am so tired of all this rain. It’s June. It should be hot and sunny! It’s just been gloomy all week and being annoyed at work didn’t help make the week any better. I am very happy it’s almost the weekend. One of my cousins is having a graduation party (college) this weekend and I’m looking forward to seeing my family, especially my great aunt and uncle who live in Florida. I haven’t seen them in almost a year!!

Anything on your mind? How do you think I should proceed with the co-worker thing?

After spending what seemed to be months of searching I finally booked my vacation for this summer!!!

I am going to Jamaica!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn’t be more excited. I have never been there before and the place we my friends and I are staying seems really nice. It’s all-inclusive and there are tons of daily activities offered that is included that most AI places don’t usually offer. Such as water skiing, banana boats, snorkeling, glass bottom boat rides and so much more!

Have any of you ever been to Jamaica?? I would appreciate any tips you have to offer.

The only downside to this is I have to wait til the end of August for my trip! It seems way to far away. I might have to take a few long weekends to help me along.

Have you ever been in a good mood but it just seems the world is out to make it gloomy? That was yesterday for me. I woke up in a good mood and it was like everyone tried to bring me down. Co-workers, my boss, my mom, friends, and even my dog!

The little shit (literally) had diarrhea yesterday and pooped on the floor. Luckily it is hardwood floors so it usually easy to clean up, but either my family didn’t notice the poop or just ignored it because by the time I came home last night it was STUCK to the floor. It took me having to get on my hands and knees and scrub vigorously until it was off.

What started out as me being in a really good mood quickly deteriorated into me being completely pissed off at the world. Luckily I woke up again this morning in another great mood and so far the world doesn’t seem to be coming after me!

How could I be in a bad mood when I just booked a vacation, my office is having a pot luck lunch today, it's gorgeous out, and I get to leave at 2 tomorrow to enjoy a, hopefully, beautiful three day weekend!!

What is your mood like today?

Thursday Thoughts

• I cannot believe that next weekend is Memorial Day weekend!!! This year is flying by!!! I am so excited for the three-day weekend. Also even more exciting the start of summer Friday’s at my office!!!
• Now that it is May I am ready for it to be really warm. I am itching to go swimming!!
• I still haven't planned my summer vacation. I'm starting to get worried that I won't be able to do anything.
• I was really upset at the biggest loser. Helen shouldn't have won in my opinion. She look anorexic and plus she made her daughter go home instead of herself? What parent does that??
• I recently bought some clothes online at forever 21. They have a new plus size line there. They don't have a huge selection and also they only go up to 2x! So really it's only partially plus sized. Most other places go up to at least 3X. Anyway, I got 4 shirts there. 2 fit great and 2 were a little too tight. Which was better then I was expecting, plus they are cute and cheap and will serve as a good going out shirts this summer.
• I'm about to leave work and go see my foot doctor. Fingers crossed that everything is going good!

• I am so glad that I don’t have to go in to work tomorrow and today is my Friday.
• Even though I will be in pain tomorrow, considering the week I had, I will gladly take in exchange of not going to work tomorrow.
• Speaking of tomorrow. I am getting really nervous. I’m afraid of the pain. I’m afraid it won’t take. My anxiety is out of control. I just want it to be over already you know? This waiting stuff is killing me!
• I am so SICK of the rain. This is not Seattle. When is the sun coming back???
• I am really upset that Jon from Jon and Kate plus 8 is being such a douche. Even if he didn’t cheat, in my opinion he was/is well on his way to. That is not going to solve your problems Jon!

• I found out yesterday that my insurance will cover the PRP injections I told you about before! I’m so happy to be moving forward and hopefully healing my foot!
• It is so freaking hot in my office. All week I’ve felt like I’m sitting in a sauna. Someone really needs to crack open a window NOW. We aren’t allowed to do it for some reason.
• My mother’s day gift finally came in the mail yesterday. It is so cute. I seriously love Etsy. I’m sure my mom will love it, and she is hard to please! I promise I will post a picture and review of it after Mother’s day.
• I can’t wait for the weekend to start. This week seems to be never ending. I can’t wait to be able to relax, visit with friends and do a little spring shopping. There are these outlets by me that I love. I really want to go to the Puma outlet and buy some new shoes.
• Also have any of you ever bought Cole Haan shoes? I have never worn them before but someone told me that some of them actually are made with Nike Air. I’m very curious to see how they feel. They also have an outlet to where I’m going. I may have to try on a few pairs. ;)
• I’ve also been itching to do some spring-cleaning. Every so often I get the urge to just come through my room and get rid of anything that I don’t use anymore. It always makes me feel good when I do this. Not sure if I will have time to this weekend, but I will get to it soon.

Few random thoughts for today

• There are a bunch of people I work with who wash their hand BEFORE they go to the bathroom. WTF? You’re doing it backwards! Why would you wash your hands, knowing that in 20 seconds they will be dirty again and you will need to rewash them? Can anyone please explain why they are doing this??

• I’m going to a wedding in a little over a week. It’s not a big fancy wedding, the bride was married before, but I still feel like I should wear a dress. I bought on the other day that was on clearance for 10 bucks. I LOVE this dress. My mother? Hates it. Nothing really new there, we have totally different tastes, but now I’m worried that it doesn’t look good and I have nothing to wear. I need a second opinion. Maybe if I remember I will take a picture and you can be the judge!

• Oh and finally, I mentioned a while ago that I got a new dog. I left off with telling you that my family was fighting over his name. Then I never mentioned it again. Ooops. Anyway to make up for it I am posting a picture!

Meet Bruno!
