have a donut, don't say no.

Gary's sleeping.

I'm working on fun excel stuff.

That stupid fashion show on Bravo is on.

I turned on Pandora.

I was greeted by a song I LOVE but haven't heard in awhile.

All the Above. Maino.

Loves it.

Fast forward to 2 seconds later.

I had 2 tabs going on my internet window.

Instead of getting out of my blog back to my email, I got out of Pandora.

In the middle of the fabulous song.

Oops :)

The Biggest Loser

I completely forgot the single biggest happening that has occurred this past week.

Paying off my loan.

GOOD THING I decided to start paying it off early. Too bad "early" is not exactly how it came out to be. On paper, my first payment wasn't due until January 7, 2011. Online my first payment is due November 21, 2010. Crap! Luckily, I sent a check in more than 5-10 days in advance so my first payment will NOT BE LATE! In fact, I checked today and it was successfully received and is currently being processed. Sweet.

My loan is now a biggest loser contestant and it WILL win.

:)

I almost forgot!

I am SOOOOOOO excited about tonight!

1. Wheel of Fortune
2. Biggest Loser
3. Parenthood, my newfound love :)
4. Michael Connelly during commercials
5. Tuna Helper.

The end.

s o g double o d good

Yes, it's been awhile. Sorry :) It's been an interesting couple of weeks with its usual ups and downs. Thank you to my sweet, sweet honey bear for bearing through it all. You are too good for me sometimes.

I successfully applied to and interviewed with and failed to obtain yet another job but you know what, I think it's finally dawned on me that perhaps the universe doesn't want me to leave Decorah just yet. So instead, when I was out making room blocks at the other hotels I asked if they were hiring. Indeed they were! I completely flopped on one of the places but oh well. I didn't want to work there anyhow. Let's just hope that I can get a part-time front desk position at the other hotel I applied to. Cross your fingers! Let's also hope that I don't completely suck at nailing the interview....

Just because I want to tell this story to freak everyone out, I have to tell you what I dreamt about yesterday. Other than weapons (I've been reading Michael Connelly so no, I'm not crazy nor am I going to kill anyone), I had a very vivid dream about our wedding day. For some reason we were all at our old house in Strawberry about to take pictures but Kendra, Andrew and our photographer weren't there. I FORGOT TO GIVE EVERYONE A DETAILED SCHEDULE!!! Oh my gosh. I really thought it was real and it was the worst day ever. However, one good thing came out of the dream: it was nice outside :)

And speaking of Michael Connelly, I took what I thought to be the first 3 books of his series back to Decorah with me. 3/4 of the way into the first book I realize they were not the first 3 books but the 6, 7 and 8th books. Damn. I am now on the 8th book and cannot wait to get back to Strawberry and take the Correct first 3 books.

Laaaastly, I have been up to no good today. I spent a good 4 hours getting rid of my food bookmarks and making a makeshift recipe book. I'm not even half way done. That is what happens when you bookmark recipes for YEARS. Oh boy. My next task will be to actually make these recipes and decipher which ones I should keep and which ones I can delete FOREVER!!!!!!!

Exciting.
