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!

Summary of silence.

I need to summarize the past few weeks of silence. And by summarize, I actually mean being concise.  No one likes drowning in line after line of mundane text. Let me give a special shout out to P!nk (or however, the heck she spells her hardcore name) and that gem of a song cycling on the local radio stations. I'll confess that I've been listening to mainstream pop for the past five or six months. Anyone can attest to the poop (funny, how it's only one letter different from pop...) on the radio, but usually I just laugh it off and continuing singing about how cool you look in sunglasses or how fly I'm feeling like a G6. BUT it wasn't Enrique or Katy who snapped me about of this funky rut, it was Pink's newest diddy that slapped me dead in the face. Honestly, I'm not sure which phrase I hate the most. It's pretty much a toss up among "what's the dealio," "don't get fancy just get dancy," "nitty gritty dirty little freaks," or "call me up if you a gangsta."  I have question: what the bajezus is a "penny snatcher?" All I have to say is please do party on your own. Not hating on Pink, just that horrifying jiggle. Besides inquiring about the vernacular of her single, it also caused me to ask questions like: WHERE IS OUR SOCIETY HEADING? And IS THERE A GOD? And IS THERE NOTHING SACRED? Okay, now I'm just being dramatic and a tad ridiculous. On to real life...

1! I'm seriously considering skipping my half marathon. I know "weak-sauce", right?? I've been sick and haven't been able to do any training in almost a week and a half. Not lying, I had a cold and then a stomach virus. My longest distance run has been a very slow 8 miles, and the race is in less than three weeks...

2! I have a little black book to keep my addresses in.  Isn't it cute?

I need YOUR address!

3! As I was leaving from Molly's house today, she handed me a travel organizer for my South American adventure. I was simply blown away by the thoughtfulness and the awesomeness of the gift. Can you believe someone thought of me this week? I've already started using it and haven't owned it for a complete 24 hours.

ORGANIZATION <3

4! Jeez, I've been procrastinating like a mo-fo... fo real. I'm leaving in less than two and a half months and instead of organizing my room/more important docs, I've been scourging the Internet/blog-scene on how to backcomb my hair without ensuing damage. Although, I have made a smidgen of headway on our Argentine travel plans. I want to book the hostels by Thanksgiving which is literally right around the corner.

Okay, this is enough! I will explain the entire of my little facebook fast come next entry. I have plans for this blog, so you better start figuring out how to use RSS feed (it's simple) to following along. Commenting is easy to, and it shows me you're there, especially on the account that facebook is a no-go for the moment.

Muchos besos.
