A Day in the Life - Wednesday #3

HO HO HO- How am I feeling?? GRRRREAT! Seriously, I'm not sick anymore, and I'm also not a hormonal, crazed, anxious psychopath (which I've been for the past few days). Wednesdays are days for me to get stuff done! I clock in three hours of nanny time, but the rest of day is mine. Sometimes this becomes problematic seeing as I am particularly fond of procrastinating. And every other thought racing through my brain is "oh, you have plenty of time." Unfortunately, that is not always the case. For example, I had "plenty of time" for a long shower, but by the time I jumped out, I had fifteen minutes to dress, make up, eat, and find all my stuff that I had scattered around my house the previous night. Here's some snapshots of my, uh, very interesting day.

*Note- I am not performing any particular exercise here.

Ah! A quick little work out. I haven't done anything too physical for about a month and a half. 

I attempted something new! One, I tried to cook kale (uh, giant fail since it turned out really chewy...). Two, I poached an egg. Fancy, right? Oh and this is my venture to make up for not posting a "meatless Monday." 

Alright, this is an instance where I acknowledge the fact that I'm a total nerd. I feel old and slighty... well, AWESOME because I'm setting up an IRA. Too bad, I felt like a royal idiot on the phone with the bank representative. These following words literally left my mouth "uhh, I'm like 23 and so I really have no clue what to do with the whole retirement fund thing." I am contemplating this hypothesis that suggests a correlation between the phone, my brain, and my mouth. Something is disconnected in the processes. Maybe the phone emits something electrical that tangles up my brainwaves? Do phones even have electrical emissions? Whatever, it's a real condition.

After babysitting, dinner, watching an episode of Parks and Recreation, I came upstairs to answer some e-mails, finally write some things in my scheduler, surf the web for gifts, and waste time ridiculing ridiculous facebook posts.

So how am I going to arrange my schedule for tomorrow? I ponder. Actually, I'm really wondering if I want to wake up super early to run errands before nanny time or sleep. What a dilemma!

A Day in the Life- Wednesday #1

Alright- Wednesdays are going to be a progression of pictures. Hopefully, this will prove more interesting when I'm in Chile, but a girl has to practice, right? So until the end of January, you're going to be stuck with these mundane shots of a poor graduated girl with a part-time job!

Today was a sleepy Wednesday with a serious sinus headache on the side.  Seeing as I had the day off, I planned to cross through many of the things on my ever expanding to-do list.  Seriously, it seems like the more time I have, the less I get done!

sleepy head. headache. 7:30am.

I got my Mac in from UPS this afternoon which only proved to be a distraction from my "to do" list. However, I'll consider transferring files and just trying to figure out how this thing works as an accomplishment.

can you see the foot print on the mac box?

I ran a couple of errands today, trying to make some head way on my Christmas list. I hopped in my car to Hobby Lobby to pick up some ceramic paint. Then found these bargain mugs on clearance at Ross. So, I'm in love with etsy.com and all its talented artisans!  I was inspired by some shops to create my own mustache mugs. Can I say ironic? And need I remind you how much I love irony?

IRONY- weapon of choice

Okay, okay. I'm pretty bored with this post, too. BUT this will get better in time, I promise. Alright, one last photo. This is a treat. A macbook photobooth picture along with a "how to."

hott-with 2 t's, of course

How to Take a Hott/Haute Macbook Photo (ie. what I've learned from girls on facebook)

1. Find optimal lighting

2. Distort face such as pursing lips, squinting eyes, extending chin, etc.

3. Add some sort of cute prop

4. Make up, make up, and more make up for best results

5. The less it looks like the real you, the better.

Oh how I jest! On a more serious note, I've come to realize that facebook is a necessary evil. But it's definitely evil.
