happy (long weekend) friday!
soooooooo tired. so so so tired. will be a miracle if i make it through this day. honest to god i am typing with my eyes closed right now.
ran 7.2 miles last night and felt great!! it's the farthest i have ever ran! but this morning i look at that number, 7.2, and i don't feel as impressed by it. i feel like most people can run 7.2 miles? When i can run 9 and 10 miles I will feel better. but i am still proud of myself, i just wish it was farther.
kicking the weekend off with a party at a friends tonight. grilling and an adult scavenger hunt! then bed, waking tomorrow to do a few errands, maybe squeeze in a quick run (depending on how late i sleep...) and then TUBING the river 
sunday will be sleeping in as late as possible, errands, cleaning, going for a run and in laws all afternoon (the whole fam from the midwest will be there). monday is beach, run and dinner/bbq/fireworks with my parents i think.
mostly lots of sun, sleep, family (which leads to booze...) and running

Oh say does that star spangled ban-neh-her yet wa-haaaaave. Happy long weekend pals!
Shauni, I cannot run one mile. 7.2 is great, and you will be able to do 9 or 10 toot sweet. Unfortunately I did not see Barack last night, only his motorcade. I am annoyed with life in that extremist dillholes try to shoot up presidents so they can't hang out windows waving at the people. B did get John's Water Ice yesterday, the very best water ice in the city. HiYAH.
I am happy as a pig in poop this morning with my naughty Au Bon Pain jalapeno cheddar bagel and my large DD iced coffee with one cream. Friday, I can have a bagel instead of good for you cereal and cream instead of skim milk! Holler. I was singing and be-bopping all over the train station picking up my various food items from different locales.
Last night the Obama motorcade shut shizz DOWN in this city. I was meeting MFD in Fairmount at a friend's coffee shop, and I couldn't get on a bus or in a cab because it was gridlocked. I had to walk a mile and a half with my bags and wearing flip flops. I was schvitzing when I got there. We ate and caught up with Ange, then headed to the Mann and socialized with my work peeps.
It was a completely gorgeous night, and Joan Osbourne/some band doing Abbey Road backed by the Philadelphia Orchestra was really awesome.
The Mann is an awesome concert venue, but it borders a very very very bad land. We were caught at a light and I didn't even want to move my head. Eee.
We got home at about 10:40 and watched L&O LA. I fell out around 12:30.
Early dismissal at noon!
Ah hahaha. This is so me. If someone was chasing me I would be better off staying and fighting than trying to run from them.
Yay! For a long weekend.
Shauni 7.2 miles is GREAT! Don't cut yourself short that is AWESOME!!
I thought I was suppose to be feeling better I felt like a** all yesterday and even this morning. I really give credit to people who have a child already and work and our pregnant. I can barely deal with working and being pregnant.
I went to Red Robin..yummm.. last night with some friends. It was yumm.
Not set plans this weekend as of yet.
Hey all!!!!
SOO glad it's friday! There are only a handful of people at work today. Hopefully I'll be able to sneak out a little early!
Was at a Women in Leadership conference yesterday. It was interesting. Maybe it's a generational thing, but some of these women that spoke up during sessions said the stupidest crap that made me want to throw my shoe at their scrunchie/bananan clip wearing butts!
It's soooo humid already today and it's not even 8 am. I can handle heat, but humidity sucks. Plus humidity makes the chances of someone getting lost in my hair a lot higher. Naturally wavey/curly hair sucks when humid. :-)
That's all for now. I'm sure I'll be bored today and back later.
This weekend I work all day Saturday, it better be busy. Sunday the holiday begins. H is talking about grilling the tri trips we've been saving in the freezer and riding quads. Sounds good to me.
Weekend plans:
Early dismissal at noon. Hausfrauing, yard working, laundry, making caprese salad. Friends are coming over for dinner and we are booking our Disney cruise excursions. Hollerrrrr.
Saturday I better be sleeping in gaht damnit. Grad party for my cousin, a side of the family that is blah. I will be boozing.
Sunday BBQ.
Monday a date with one of my BFFs to see Bridesmaids at 9:20 a.m. Then a day of lounging.
Haha. I always tell people this. I despise running. If I run, they'll catch me really quick and then I'll be all tired and useless when I have to try and fight them off!
Seriously, though, Shauni - AWESOME job on the running! I wish I had your motivation to do the same myself. You're a rock star! :-)
i am a bad dem and didn't even realize than michelle o was here in VT for some fundraising dinners. i would have camped out to meet her
i suck at life.
furthermore, i am so jealous of any of you with early dismissal. i want to be let out early! wah.

I GOT AN EARLY RELEASE!!!!!!
2 more hours. and it is important to note that the first hour and a half was spent talking with my coworkers about our plans for the weekend
Blog
YAY!!!!! Enjoy the weekend!
TGIF! Yesterday was a long day, work was fine until it picked up in the afternoon and one of our clients needs a multi-market proposal due by EOD Tuesday. Just when I thought I was going to get a half day today the dreams of that got crushed. At least I'm working at home but still, I wanted to not be glued to my computer all day. But, the bright side, I get a Q2 bonus so that means J and I can go to Disneyland for our 1-yr anniversary in September
. He's never been there and I haven't been in about 7-8 years. Hollah!
And last night I had a meltdown due to stress and J trying to be funny but I wasn't having it was the icing on the cake. I ended up crying my eyes out. He hates seeing me cry. But he did a great job comforting me and it's all good now.
So happy Friday to ya'll and this long weekend is needed! After work is done, I plan to go for a walk or run with the doggy and I'm sure at some point this weekend we will use our movie passes to see Transformers 3.

Leo - sorry for your meltdown, hurrah for Disney!!!
Shauni - Hollerrrrrrr for E.D! I have one hour. One hour people! I never even took my flip flops off today. Take that, cruel corporate world.
I spent the first hour here shooting the poop with a coworker, then the next hour farting around on the world wide web. I am spending my last hour updating my company's web site. Word up.
Hope everybody has a fantastic weekend!!!
I am officially in BFE. I can receive calls but no texts :-( I don't realize how co-dependent I am on the smartphone until I don't have it. In an hour we are going even farther out and I won't have any cell reception whatsoever. I usually don't mind but for some reason this trip is hitting me. Maybe because I have so many friends and family coming into town this weekend!
Thank you - part of it's pre-pms and the other parts were stress from work and that green thing called money
