Rollercoaster Weekend

So my weekend was very good until Sunday morning. Friday night I chilled at home, attempted to air out the onion smell that has been festering since I made stir fry on Wednesday and then went to bed early. My neighbors below me were pumping the bass like crazy so I opted to move into my bedroom where it was quieter, this of course just caused me to fall asleep watching TV at like 11. Saturday I went to Doug's so he could look at my car & then joined my friend Mike at his sisters wedding Saturday night where we partied down, had some drinks, I met some interesting people, saved Mike from sexual harassment, took pics in a photo booth then ran away & met up with some other friends at Bailey's. After that we all turned in & I got back to Doug's at about 3 & we sat up chatting about my invention that is in process until about 4 & though I was super excited I went to bed. Sunday I was woken up by a phone call from my boss, I thought it was strange but answered anyway only to find out that a co-worker of ours had passed away unexpectedly. The whole thing was extremely shocking & I still don't really believe that someone who was only 25 could just pass out & never wake up. Work is very quiet today & her empty cube behind me is more empty than ever. She is definitely being missed by all of us & as I'm sure everyone else feels the same as me, I keep expecting her to walk by. This is going to be such a difficult time for our now small group, it's so sad to have to say goodbye to such a nice, honest, and just all around good person. My thoughts & condolences go out to Stacie's family and friends in this trying time.

Wrap Up Of Last Week

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to blogging. Ok, so Thursday night was a little better than Wednesday night as far as sleeping with the dogs went and then on Friday I actually had half of the bed all to myself & other than the dogs waking me up at 6:30 to eat & go out the night was pleasant. Luckily the dogs came right back to bed after breakfast & while one slept on my feet I was still cozy & didn’t wake up until 10, woo hoo!! What a difference though, once I switched over to Doug’s to watch & sleep with Zoey I didn’t even know she was in the bed at all, she curled up at the bottom on the other side from me & went right to sleep, it was so nice especially since she didn’t wake me up until 10:30.

So, not only were Todd & Melissa’s dogs annoying to sleep with their male Caesar eats everything…like seriously everything and the package it came in. Wendy & I went to dinner Thursday night for like an hour & when we returned Caesar had eaten 80% of a package of makeup sponges, half a stick of brand new deodorant and the lotion part of 2 Intuition razor refills! While I was at work that same day he ate 2 donuts along with the bag they came in & the napkins that were inside, leaving no trace of any of it. Todd informed me that prior to their departure he ate T’s birthday candles as well as the package they came in too, at least he doesn’t discriminate.

Other than dealing with all of these animals I had a fun weekend. Saturday afternoon Wendy & I went to the Huron Applefest in New Boston & we ate a ton of food & then stopped by my aunt Gloria’s house & got some fresh canned goods (yum) and headed home. We hit up Mexican Fiesta for dinner & ritas & then went to Howell’s to meet up with our dear friend Mike who was up from Chicago for a wedding of a “friend” and it was so good to see him, it had been quite some time!! We hung out with Mike & Jorge & this other guy (can’t spell his name) and then Jen & Brad arrived & we all shot the shit for a bit & guzzled a few beers before heading home. I slept in on Sunday & then met Wendy & Paul for some lunch & beers at Bailey’s and then finally around 5:30 on Sunday I got HOME!!! My SATC extended DVD was waiting for me in my mailbox so I watched that right away & then relaxed the rest of the night at home. I’m thoroughly enjoying being home, but will have to head back to Dearborn Friday after work to watch Zoey for the weekend. Thankfully Doug gets back on the 15th & I currently plan to remain on lockdown at home the weekend of the 24th.

Catch Up

So sorry I haven't been on here lately, I've been busy doing other things so I figured I'd do a quick catch up of why I've been missing & then get back to missing. Let's see, Thursday night me & Kara went to Huey Lewis & the News & it was awesome. We hung out with Lyz & Larry & their friend Braddon as well as Michelle & Tony, and Kara heard from a friend of hers who used to be a groupie that Huey Lewis is hung like a bear...who would have thought?

Friday I was hungover as all get out & spent the majority of the day spewing red white & blue. Once I was feeling better I pulled myself together & watched some TV...very adventurous I know!

Saturday I cleaned my apartment top to bottom to prepare for my parents arrival today. Once I got all of my cleaning done I rolled into Dearborn and hung out at Howell's with Leslie where we ran into Justin and his posse & NSG Dan & his posse of the evening. Rude jokes were told, we got into a debate with some interesting characters & then called it a night.

Today I've lounged, had keys made, did some Aco shopping (the place is so addictive), and hit up the Dearborn Farm Market which I love & miss now that I live in Farmington Hills...there is no homegrown cheapy farm market by me & that sucks. I got 2 weeks worth of fruit & veggies, some fresh basil & a newspaper for $15. Oh yeah, at Aco I also grabbed a couple of the famed Aco cart girl hot dogs...best in Dearborn & they totally hit the spot!!

I'm gonna go back to watching 90210 with my cat Libby & await my parents arrival!! Have a safe & happy Labor Day & I'll be back on Tuesday!!
