Day Three Hundred and Fifty Four

All packed and ready to go! Getting up early tomorrow morning so I can get my car parked off-site and get to the airport early. Not risking missing the flight for anything!

Day Three Hundred and Fifty Three

I sold my huge beanbag today. They came by and picked it up and paid $50 for it! It took the three of us to stuff it in the back of her convertible (she had a mustang conv) and it still stuck out so they went to Home Depot to get some rope to hold it down. I now have some spending cash  for when I am in AZ and I am another step closer to simplifying my life!

I also got my Xmas card from Susie and family yesterday. Yay! Can't wait to see everyone! I am actually already packed except for my toiletries and stuff. That is how eager I am!

Day Three Hundred and Fifty Two

Had a fun filled day of paying videogames and hanging out with Cyn. We played Plants Vs. Zombies, Halo Reach, Dance Central, and Kinect Adventures. I think we had the most fun with Adventures and it wore us out! It is fun to view all the pictures it takes afterward because they are so natural and not posed at all!

Day Three Hundred and Fifty One

I finally got my badge for work today so now I don't have to wait for someone to let me inside in the morning. This also means I can go for a walk during the day too. Yay! It is the same picture that I had for my first contract when I moved here I opted to keep that picture, it is easier about stressing over what a new picture would look like and it is interesting to see how different I look after two and  half years!

Day Three Hundred and Fifty

Nothing exciting today.... just work.

Day Three Hundred and Forty Nine

Why am I wearing this cute little My Little Pony bandage on my finger, you ask? Well I got a package from my mom today and while I was opening my b-day present it kept poking me until it drew blood. I couldn't figure out what it was because I am a dork! I thought it was just the edge of the package until it I saw blood and realized that wasn't normal! It turns out it was the awesome colored knives I wanted! I am so excited to use them. I need to find some food to cut! And from my package opening experience I know they are sharp. :)

Day Three Hundred and Forty Eight

I noticed today that there seemed to be a standard look at MS and this guy in the picture seems to embody it. You can't see the beard in the front. But the bald head and beard is the total look and about half the guys there look like that. I didn't realize until after I took the picture that the volume was set to ON on my phone so it made a shutter sound when I took the picture. I had to feign innocence after that.

Day Three Hundred and Forty Seven

Well I started my new job today. I had to create a new GT to use for the forum and since the other two guys had "Mister" names I choose a Mistress name. First day was slow and I really don't feel I am going to like it here. I am going to continue looking for a different job, but I will stay in this position until I find one.

Day Three Hundred and Forty Six

I finished Sandra's mittens and hat today and they all turned out awesome! I really want to keep them for myself, but I will probably have to be satisfied with getting the same type of yarn and making my own. I hope she likes them!

Day Three Hundred and Forty Five

Christa and I went to see the movie Burlesque today. We saw it at the fancy theater which is always neat. We got to sit in lounge chairs and I had a dirty martini. The movie was okay. It started off really good but halfway through it went downhill. I am interested in the soundtrack though and might pick it up, it had some good songs.

Afterward we stopped at the cupcake store and I got a gingerbread cupcake that was pretty yummy, I will have to try making them myself.

Day Three Hundred and Forty Four

I decided to go through my closet and fold up all my gaming shirts and store them for future use. I was amazed at how many I have! One day I will get creative with them and make skirts and such out of them. 

Did I mention how happy I am my hair is red again? I think it suits me much more then the blonde.

Day Three Hundred and Forty Three

I colored my hair red today, watched a movie about a serial killer (The Killer Inside Me), and did some yoga. I feel almost back to normal! I am hopefully starting working Monday, I haven't gotten the final word yet, but I sure hope I do because this is the last week I have unemployment insurance!

Day Three Hundred and Forty Two

Spent the evening watching MadMen and eating pizza and salad with Christa, Callie, and Allie. It was nice to be just the girls. Callie got a little weird toward the end and was pretending she was a turtle. Silly girl :)

Day Three Hundred and Forty One

I had my stats class final tonight and I am so happy I am finally done with that class. I think I am burned out from classes for a bit. Now I am going to pop some yummy spicy popcorn and watch a movie. 

Day Three Hundred and Forty

After my exciting my weekend I didn't do too much today except relax and get started on Sandra's mittens. I should have them done soon.

Day Three Hundred and Thirty Nine

Had a really nice day today. Cyn and Sandra came by and we played some Dance Central, we had a blast. We then went out to lunch at Claim Jumper and I got a red velvet cupcake for my b-day! We wandered around the mall and shopped and then found a yarn store to pick up some yarn Sandra wanted me to make her hat and gloves from. It was a nice relaxing perfect bday day :) Oh! And Sandra and Cyn gave me the sweetest, most awesome bday card :)

Day Three Hundred and Thirty Eight

Woot! Woot! I had such a blast my Saturday birthday weekend night! We went and saw banked track roller derby and then we drank our asses off!

We went to an awesome place called The Rock and  drank buckets of alcohol, literal buckets. I also had a really yummy pizza. It just jumped out at me because of the name and it was one of the few times that I knew what I wanted off the menu right away.

Oh yeah, and I still have the bucket.  Dawn and I did karaoke at a place called Thrashers and were very serious about it! We rocked the house! Oh yeah.... it was an awesome birthday night! And I have pictures to prove it!

Day Three Hundred and Thirty Seven

One of those days... nothing exciting to write about. This weekend should be chock full of fun though. :)

Day Three Hundred and Thirty Six

I drove to Hoquaim today to visit Riley and her new family. She is fitting in very well. They were so impressed at how well trained she was. They thought they were going to end up with a dog they would have to put a lot of work into and were pleasantly surprised that they found one that they didn't have to. I had lunch with them (Elk meat chili)) and then we took a walk to the huge lot and lake that Riley plays in. She is so calm around them and she loves the little girls. I feel more and more that I did the right thing.

Day Three Hundred and Thirty Five

Had to get up early again today to go fill out the paperwork for the job. I woke up at 7:30AM! I really need to get more prepared on waking up early. Luckily Susie text messaged me at that time so I couldn't ignore my alarm. So the paperwork is all filled out and I am just waiting for it all to process before I can start working, it should be within the next couple of weeks. AND a second bit of good news, Susie got my flight all set up so I will be heading to AZ for Dec 21st through 27th. A whole week :)
