random thought: i miss my puppy again already...


well, i'm getting bad at updating this, aren't i? i keep meaning to. in fact, i keep meaning to update the private folder - i am currently having an issue that i would like to vent about, but i can't do it here. anyway, not right now... i'm updating this section first! lol.

so my seminar met at my prof's house this week instead of in our classroom because her kid was sick, or something. anyway, it was the first time i'd been in a prof's house. it was exciting! her place looked nice. kinda messy, but nice. it was fun to see pictures of her on her wedding day and when she was a lot younger and so pretty, haha. and i met her daughter, who is adorable! and her cats and her dog too. it was fun. and she bought tons of food for us - i dont think we even ate a fifth of what she bought for us. oh well tho.

then we went party hopping friday night. we started out at poe night, which was jeff's thing because he's prez of bel-let. then we went to the arts haus. it was pretty cool. everyone liked my costume. i really wasn't anything tho. i just grabbed a red and black skirt and a red ruffled top that looked like it was straight out of the 19th century, put my hair in a bun and threw on some character shoes. no biggie. but it was a hit! well, until some people asked me what i was, lol. oh well.

then yesterday, my mom came at like 11:30 with kay! and we went shopping at tjmax and ross. she needed christmas presents for people at work and i needed dressier clothes that look professional for all these job interviews i'm going to be having. i also got a black leather purse so that it would go with anything and look grown up. (yay bag shopping! my fav!) so it was good times. then jeff and i ushered for the play, the love of the nightengale. it was really well done. i was impressed. the beginning was a little slow, but the rest of it went really well. and apparently there were all kinds of technical problems as well, haha, so even with all that it still looked good! and then afterwards, there was a cube party at 11, so jeff and i went to blondies and got a passion before we went there and it apparently has something like 7 shots in it! so i was drunk off my ass in like 5 minutes after drinking it (we were basically chugging them). and then we went to the party and danced, and i offended people and it was good times! haha. and then we came home and i called cube and was still drunk at like 2:30 when i got home. and after we hung up, i passed out and didn't wake up until kay started crying at like 8:15 because he had to pee and wanted me to take him out.

so then today, my mom and i went and did more shopping, she needed to go to lowes and michaels for this project she's working on. we also bought me some shoes because i didn't have any nice looking professional grown up shoes that could go with anything. so we went to payless and wound up getting three pairs of black shoes. one is a really low cut boot shape with a heel, one is a loafer type with a low heel and the last is a flat mary-jane style. and i got all three for $30!!! yay!

so... all-in-all, i spent less than $100 on new professional outfits... three shirts, a sweater, two bottoms, a purse and three pairs of shoes. i think that's amazing. i was really impressed with being able to get so much stuff. go me!

it was a great weekend. what a way to kick off the month of november!
