I really want a nice camera so I can start documenting my life with pictures. Words and pictures. But I also need a new car. And I want a laptop. And the new iPhone 4 would be nice. Money money money. One day I'll have it.
I just got back from grocery shopping. Just some basic stuff. Chicken breasts, sliced turkey and cheese, stuff to make spaghetti with the two pounds of ground beef I have in the freezer, tomatoes (I just eat those with salt usually, best snack), an onion (all the onions I bought at the farmers market went bad because I couldn't eat them fast enough), and eggs. I ate the rest of my Chipotle for breakfast so I'll just make a sandwich or something right before work. I got my Chipotle fix yesterday for lunch. I used to eat there at least once a week, but I've really cut back to around once a month. Yay. I switched with someone to get yesterday off, which was great because I needed to get some stuff done. So I put away the piles of clothes in my room and vacuumed the house (quite an ordeal with all the Roxy hair) before I got ready to go to Houston's at West Paces to apply. All I have left to do to clean this week is dust and clean the bathrooms. And give Roxy a bath. I want to take her swimming in the river as a treat before her bath. Maybe this weekend. So I went to Houston's to apply yesterday, and they called me back right after I left and scheduled an interview for today! Yay! So I'm going in there before work. I still want to get an interview at the one on Lenox, so I think I'm going to call them today. I applied there Monday so it's been three days. All I know is I'm on my way to getting a new job, and I'm so excited! After I applied there yesterday I went over to Kendra's and got to hang out with her for a couple hours and see sweet Isla! It was great, I haven't seen them in awhile. Isla is changing so fast, I love being able to see her grow! After that I went to my parents' house with Roxy and had dinner with my family. It is always nice to spend time with them and let the dogs run around. They are best friends, both of them are always so excited to see each other. Overall it was a great day off.
I'm going to go surf Etsy now :)

Hey There
I'm not sure what happened. Mostly, I'm lazy. Also I promised myself I would be honest in this blog, and honestly I haven't made much progress with my weight loss. Ugh. My eating habits have improved, I make better choices than I used to, but I haven't worked out since I ran last time I updated. So that means I haven't made much progress with Roxy either, she needs the exercise as much as I do. List of things I need to get done this week instead of being lazy before work...
-Run
-Grocery shopping (to prevent eating out)
-Vacuum (and clean bathrooms, put away clothes, etc)
-Brush and bathe Roxy
-Continue applying for jobs
-Read the news/other material to increase my knowledge
These are all things that I know if I accomplish I will feel better about myself. Getting a new job is definitely the priority right now. I've had my moments where I hated working at Bluepointe, and then I realized I was making enough money and really enjoyed most of the people I worked with. Now I've hit a point where I can't see the good things anymore and I hate going there every day. I don't mind waiting tables. I can make good money in the restaurant business while I'm in school, and it can actually be a lot of fun. But I can say I am MISERABLE at work lately. My eye has been twitching this past week, ha. And there is nothing else going on in my life that would stress me out. So I applied at Houston's on Lenox today, and they said they would call me. While I wait for that call I'm going to the Houston's on West Paces. If I don't get an interview this week, I'll probably start applying in Midtown. The commute would be worth it if I'm making more money. Midtown is just as far as Buckhead anyways. I'm really excited for something new. New people, new experiences. It is always hard to move from one job to the next, but I'm so ready for the challenge.
Ever since I woke up this morning I have felt like there is something stuck in my throat. Not something I could actually cough up, it feels like I was swallowing a piece of chicken or something and it's still there. I know nothing is, but it's freaking me out because I know my throat must be swollen for it to feel like that. Maybe it's just because I smoked cigarettes last night. I "quit" but I still will smoke one when I drink sometimes. If I buy a pack it takes me at least 3 weeks to finish it. But last night I was drinking and with a group of people who smoke A LOT and I ended up smoking more than my one or two I would normally while drinking. I guess if it goes away soon I can blame it on cigs, and if not I'll think about going to the doctor. Speaking of the doctor, I got a weird phone call yesterday. Saturday afternoon I ordered some food to go from Tin Lizzy's on the way to work. I got half a skillet with chicken and avacado, and chips with salsa and queso. It was all good, I love their food. Sunday morning I get a phone call from Tin Lizzy's. This girl asked for me, introduced herself as Nicole, and asked if I ordered food to go the previous day. I told her yes, and she asked if everything was okay. I said yes, it was fine, and she said okay great and hung up. I have NEVER ordered food to take home from a restaurant and had them call me to make sure it was okay. Especially the day after. So the two things that I think it could be are maybe some orders got mixed up, but mine ended up being right and they didn't know, or maybe someone got sick and they were calling to see if I had gotten sick as well. That freaked me out. Ever since then I'm scared I'm going to start throwing up or something, because you're not supposed to see symptoms from food poisoning till over a day later. Ugh. I know I'm over thinking it, but isn't that weird? I wish I would've thought to ask her why she called. I was just so confused and then she hung up.
I'm done rambling for now. I'm going to finish my glass of Whitehaven, Sauvignon Blanc (one of my favorite white wines) and relax before bed. Goodnight! Pray I find the motivation to get these things done this week!
