Max Quacks - I'm Awesome

I love that he hits the slide on his belly and then laughs for a second. He is awesome.

Phone Debacle

I will be the first to admit... I lose things. I'm absent-minded. I've got a lot going on in my head; half of which is totally unnecessary. I'm sure Ian would argue more than half. A good portion of my brain is probably just singing some song lyrics. Honestly, I wake up singing to myself. This morning it was this song:

This week has been a little rough. Ian's plane from Vegas was delayed an hour and a half. We got home really late and my sleep schedule is all off. On Monday, I heard that a good friend/work colleague of mine is ill. She will be fine I'm sure... but my worrywart brain is distracted by this. Around noon on Monday, I went to the kitchen at work and came back to find my whiteboard knocked down from the wall. It was very odd... about 20 minutes later I realized that my phone was missing. I'm definitely not someone who jumps to the conclusion that someone stole it. I've looked EVERYWHERE. I have turned my desk, my bags, my car, my house upside down. The cleaning lady at work even looked through the trash. I went to all the places I would have had it and called it. My phone is just... gone.

I finally gave up hope. I called Rogers (horrible telephone company) and they said because I was eligible for an upgrade, I could just upgrade my lost phone and buy a new SIM card. I started to try and find an iPhone in my area. Short Summary of the Next Events: Local stores refused to sell their IN STOCK phones to me because I was an upgrade and not a new customer. One Rogers phone rep said they could do that, another said they couldn't. They were going to order me a phone but it could take up to six weeks. I took to Twitter to voice my frustration. Did help any? Probably not... Did it make me feel a bit better? Absolutely. Shortly after that I got an email that my phone was shipped and should be delivered by the end of today. It's frustrating.

Anyway, it's been both good and bad to be a bit disconnected. I'm looking forward to my new phone though.

True Statement

I would like to hand this out to a few people I work with.

Packing Music

Music helps me... I don't know. Do stuff? I want to pack... clean... organize... whenever music is on. It makes me dance around the apartment and make a fool of myself. These are the songs currently keeping me dancing...

Ok I'll Wear Them!!

Something strange just happened. I'm still wearing my old glasses. Why aren't I wearing my snazzy new glasses? Couple reasons... I am doing a lot of crappy work around here... cleaning... packing... sweating... and I really didn't want my brand new glasses in all that. Also, my prescription has changed and when that happens I usually get headaches. I didn't feel like dealing with them just yet. This morning I took my old glasses off and set them on the night stand. When I went to put them back on, I found them like this:

The ear piece was snapped! I can't believe it... I guess it's a sign I should be wearing my new ones! Okay!!

Vegas Memory Lane

Ian is going to Vegas this weekend. It got me thinking about all of the times I happened to visit Sin City. One really fun time was with my mom and sister. We stayed at the Bellagio... my sister flew in from Virginia. This was a picture taken of us at the hotel. Also, I'm pretty amused right now... I NEVER would have remembered when this picture was taken. But thanks to Kodak processing I know... February 2002! (Date was typed on the back~)

The One Thing I Will Miss

Living in an apartment is not fun. I've written about it before. Dealing with elevators and loud neighbors, etc. I think the worst part for me is that we are in this concrete block. We are in a corner unit that has a lot of windows but I feel disconnected from the outside world. I'm really looking forward to taking a few steps and being on grass. But this is the only thing I will miss...

I Dared!

I decided to go for it... and I'm in love with them!

From a different angle... you can kind of see the color... Teal Blue. =D

Happy Birthday Ian!

I met him when he was 21...

...I moved to Canada when he was 22...

...we saw our first Red Sox game when he was 23...

...and got married when he was 24!

Now he's turning 25!

He will add "Homeowner" to his life resume. Can you spot the Ian in this picture? =P Happy Birthday love!

Yummy Spring/Summer Dinner

A couple weeks ago, we had an idea for a "refreshing" type of dinner. Tuna lettuce wraps and a fresh berry smoothie. It was drool inducing. We will definitely have to do it again.
