Memorial Day 2010

Happy Memorial Day, everyone! I hope you all had a good day today.

My day was pretty relaxing. Cleaned a little, packed a little for Door County. Not much else. Oh, I saw a movie, "Up in the Air". Quite good, in my opinion. Though now it makes me want to join a frequent flier miles program or something.

Memorial Day is Tomorrow?!

Seriously, it does not feel like tomorrow should be Memorial Day. Weird. Anyway, I survived work and got a cool book: The Panera Bread Cookbook. I'm not much of a cook, but it'd be cool to try something sometime. And I'm still tired. And Tribe was good, saw a lot of people, which was nice, BUT it also felt weird and clique-y, so I felt left out. Sad. But maybe I'm just hypersensitive. Right now I'm just TIRED. So tired.

36 days!!!

8 hours down, 5 more to go.

So, this is one of those rare weekends where I'm working BOTH days this weekend. I worked all day today, which actually wasn't TOO bad (I actually managed to read a whole book.... Wow. True, it was a teen book, but still technically a "book"). Tomorrow will be tough, though, working again for 5 hours AND I have to get up super early.... Yuck. On the bright side, my arm isn't bugging me so much anymore. So now, if I can just get a GOOD night's sleep, I will be set! Maybe I should watch "The Cure for Insomnia".... But I don't think I could sit through an 86 hour long movie. On the other hand, I hear that the movie is basically some guy reading a 4,000 page book, so maybe it'll be so boring that my sleeping troubles will be gone! ; )

More Productive? Not Really....

I had hope to see a DVD today.... But the DVD was scratched, so I couldn't. Sad. So I mostly did Farmville. I've got a huge desire to go to two places: Cedar Point Amusement Park and Chick-fil-A. Both are great places (Chick-fil-A has great food). Speaking of places, I leave for Kenya in 38 days. So weird!!!

I didn't do much else, just browsed the Internet. But I guess I have a right to be lazy, I work all weekend.... Yuck.

Planting Raspberries

That is what my day consisted of: Planting raspberries on Farmville. Kind of fun. Also watched some funny videos. Here's directions to get to one (when I try to paste the link, it's bad, weird): Go to Youtube and search for "Simon's Cat 'Cat Man Do'". It is so cute and if you have a cat, you can relate to it.

Unfortunately, my stomach feels weird and I don't know why. If it's another side effect of that Hep B shot, I might scream. At least my arm is less swollen.

Also, it's one of my best friend's birthday. :)

Good News: Mount Prospect is On the Map!

Mount Prospect is seriously Nowheresville, IL (mom grew up there, I've been there several times), and now it is on the map. Why? Because Lee Dewyze is the Americal Idol winner!!! And since he comes from Mt. Prospect, this small town is now pretty famous. Kind of cool. I'm happy Lee won (though Crystal Bowersox is great too). The amount of commercials for the program, though, were RIDICULOUS. Also, the length of the "Simon Cowell Tribute". Yes, he's been the infamous judge since day one; yes, it's sad that he's leaving; yes, there should be a tribute of some kind; but come on: Does it really need to take up half of the episode?!?! Well, it felt like half to me. We could do less Simon and more Lee and Crystal! That would have been cool! Oh well.

Panera=Happiness

I was very fatigued today, so annoying. But it didn't matter too much, because I saw a friend today at Panera (I hadn't seen this person for a while, so it was nice to catch up). And I seriously don't get sick of Panera. When I know I'm going to be meeting a lot of friends at Panera, I think, "Oh, I am going to get SO sick of that place!". But I don't. :)
