Working the weekend away...

So, I am back to blogging at work...well, not so much back to blogging at work, as still blogging at work. I keep checking the status of my order for my hard drive and apparently it is supposed to be delivered on the 11th. That is a really long time to get something in the mail, but at least its almost here. Thank goodness!! I keep wanting to put pictures on here and I cant and now I am gonna have to backtrack with pictures...embarrassing. Anyway, so yes, I am at work tonight and its currently only 2am which means that I have a solid 5 hours to go before I get to enjoy my lovely bed. I worked the overnight shift last night as well. Pretty exciting weekend huh??

My weekend has actually been great and I have had lots of tun times. Friday, I got up and ran a bunch of errands and got a lot of things done and was able to make an appetizer for the Grub Club lunch we were having on Saturday. Then I showered, put on an adorable little dress and headed downtown. First stop was Lucky Lounge to see my boys of Feeding 5000 play a little acoustic show. It was so great to see all their faces, I was used to seeing them multiple times a month and it had been at least 2 since I had seen them last. Kelly met me down there and we hung out and chatted there for a while before deciding to meet up with Alyssa at Beauty Bar. Normally I looooove Beauty Bar. The DJ is awesome and we always have a heck of a dance party there, but for some silly reason Kelly and I decided to walk there from Lucky Lounge and my heels were super comfortable when the night started out, but it was a loooong walk. Plus it was so muggy out that we were gross when we got there. Oh well, managed to hang out for a bit and get some dancing in anyway. Then, Bryan Goodgion was in town for some ultimate Frisbee tournament and his hotel was about 3 blocks from where I was, so I walked over to meet up with him and say hello for a little while. We ended up hanging out for about an hour and just catching up and then my feet were ready to walk (barefoot mind you) to my car and get in my bed. All in all it was a pretty fun night, just way too much walking for me.

Then Saturday was Grub Club day!! We had to have a Grub Club lunch because no one seems to be able to get together for dinner anymore with all the crazy schedules these days. Doctors and teachers and pastors...no one is ever around anymore. And we have to take advantage because Sarah and Ryan are leaving in about 2 weeks to move to Alabama!! 2 weeks!! That is so insane to me. And by insane, I clearly mean sad. So, we met at Kat and TA's house and had a great time. We ate wonderful food and played Catchphrase - which I am sad to report that the girls lost. The first time that has ever happened. Apparently we did not have our heads in the game. It was hard for us to take. Then I had to head home because I needed to try and nap before work. Unsuccessful, but I laid there for almost 2 hours and pretended. I really gave it a valiant effort.

Work went well last night. I didn't think that I was going to make it at first, I was looking at the clock around 10 and thinking, there is no way I can make it for 9 more hours. And then all of the sudden, it was 7am and I was done. That is usually how it goes...over before you know it. The only problem was that I got home this morning and couldn't seem to fall asleep. I stayed awake and played with Lexi for a bit and read for a while and then tried to force myself to sleep, but I kept waking up and finally at around 1:30, I just gave up and got out of bed. That was a bit frustrating and I am kind of paying for it now because my eyes are very tired tonight, but I am sure I will sleep awesome once I get out of here today. I just wish it was right now. Hahaha.

Let's see...in other news, the house I looked at on Friday was pretty awesome, but apparently the guy decided to rent it to a single old person...boring. So, I guess it wasn't meant to be. I was a little bummed, but I am confident that something will work out. I emailed about a few more today so hopefully I can go look at a few more this week. I went and looked at another one yesterday, but I wasn't really crazy about it. Just have to keep looking. Oh well.

I am about to have about 9 days off of work due to my vacation time for Bonnaroo. I am going to try to pick up shifts at work, but our census has been so low lately that I am not sure I am going to be able to. I sure hope so though, I really need the money. I have a babysitting job though so that's promising. And in all reality, it will be nice to have the option to work or not work. In case I am feeling extremely lazy. It is so hot though that I would at least rather be inside working and getting paid than doing anything in the heat. Miserable.

Oh, and I got my acceptance packet for being a camp counselor at Camp Discovery!! I am so super excited! I had my interview and hadn't heard back about anything for a while so I was beginning to get concerned, but I got it in the mail yesterday and I should be finding out what age group I have in about a week or so. Very exciting! I think it is going to be quite the interesting experience - me going to camp...hahaha, but I also think it will be life changing and amazing as well. I feel really blessed that it is something I am getting to do. So crazy how I just fell into this job and it has changed my whole world and put me doing something I never would have pictured, but yet cant imagine not doing. Wow.

And the last piece of news of the night is that Jonathan made me a Lakers fan because he loves them so and was so excited about them and I had to watch the games when I was in San Diego, and now they are in the NBA Finals and LOSING!! What is going on here?? They lost on Thursday night to the Celtics and I thought it was a little bit of a fluke, but then they were completely outplayed by Boston all night tonight. I watched the game in an empty patient room at work and for a hot second in the end of the fourth quarter I thought they were going to make a miraculous comeback, but then, nope...nothing. They lost again!! I am only hoping that when they go back to LA on Tuesday they will be able to win because of home court advantage. And it cracks me up that I am so into it and care so much. I mean, I love sports anyway so its fun to have a team to root for and I know what it feels like when the Cowboys disappoint me and lose, so for JWill's sake, I really really want them to win. Fingers crossed for sure!!

Back to work...
