Everything deserves a second chance

...even food.

Mark and I were planning on going to see the Semifinals perform at the Prophet, but first we had dinner with his parents and the Zimmerman's at Papasitos in Richardson. I had some sort of chicken taco things, but I didn't finish them, so I took them to go. Also at this restaurant I got to witness some really bad parenting - yay! By the time we were leaving I started not feeling great...then we got home, and I felt really sick. So we didn't end up going to the show. BOOOO! I do have their EP CD (autographed by the talented Mr. Aaron, one of my trivia team-members in crime) and it's really good, so y'all should check them out!

As for second tries...I did go ahead and eat the leftovers. It was fine - so what made me sick will be a mystery, I guess. The story of my life!

The Wicked Underlings (represent!)

Yesterday was long, but not so bad - I ended up getting to school at 7:10 (OMG early for once!) after dropping by Starbucks. I felt bad getting coffee for me, so I grabbed another one for Courtney, who also had to be at school really early. As it turned out, everything was kind of up in the air anyway, and I ended up doing random duties like making copies, signing CEU forms and helping set up tables. I went to one session - (2 if you count the main lecture) about Yoga in treatment - it was pretty cool and I can see the benefits. Once everything was done, we went to Sherlocks and met up with Luke and Anna - and were quickly joined by lots of people from school, which was a huge surprise! It was a lot of fun and hopefully we can do it again this semester - it just helped put things in perspective and calm everyone down!
Some of my favorite lines from yesterday:
Leandra (doing a transfer on me): Open your legs.

Me: Haha, you can't just say that!
Leandra: Oh, right. Hi, my name is Leandra, and I'm your occupational therapist. Open your legs.
"She's not scary - that's just her face!"

I hate technology

I was in a really bad mood today - like, whoa, stay away from me. Then I got home and ate something and I was ok, so maybe it's just that I was hungry and grouchy, then! Could be that I was taking Jenn and Judy to the airport for their trip to Angelfire. Or maybe that Jenn decided yesterday that she's taking my dream trip to Greece while I get to rot away in Summer school. It could have also been the 45 minute battle with the computer/DVD after class until I found out it was the computer, not the DVD... or maybe just the fact that I have to be at school for over 12 hours tomorrow being nice and sucking up and trying to stay awake. Maybe I just need a weekend to cool off! I am very much looking forward to Saturday (lounging around with Hubby!). Hope I can make it until then!

I'm gracious in victory, losers!

Once again, we are the champions, my friends. We took a 9.5 point lead over second place, which only had a .5 lead over third, which only had a 1 pt lead over 4th. So we pretty much dominated, even without getting the points for the team name. Ours was "No wonder Michael Phelps ate 12,000 calories a day - he had the munchies" I believe this win puts us at 3 wins out of 5 in 2009, which basically makes us the BWPG of Dallas.

That's all from my front - hopefully something interesting will happen in the next few days :)

I don't speak kinsiology

Today was a loooong day, but I survived! I got my fieldwork placement (somewhere in Richardson), and had an interview with the assistants in the OT office for a position helping with random stuff around OT land. I was all set to take the Gold's job (and excited, too!) until I found out the training is Monday mornings - which would mean I have to miss 2 group classes. They weren't willing to work with me at all (corporate, not the branch I was hired at), so I told them I couldn't take the job and to let me know if anything changes. Boooo! But a job at school would be good, too - makes things much easier!

Onto the good stuff: I get about 3 Victoria's Secret catalogs a week - yes, they are single-handedly destroying the earth. I suspect I also get 2-3 VS catalogs at each of the former addresses I have held, as well. Anyway, I usually thumb through and look for good deals, but occasionally I'll come across a picture that makes me wonder what the hell the photographer was thinking. The first one, "D", features a model who looks like she may have just been shown her new puppy being beaten. Or maybe she's thinking, "what's that awful smell? Is it me?" Or maybe someone just offered her money for sex and she's offended.

The second one is better, in my opinion. Seriously, I have no idea how this one made the catalog. The girl looks like she's been doing back breaking labor all day (as in, "Ooooh, my back!") and also maybe received an electric shock at some point, which ruined her hair. The lighting is awful - her skin looks like cookie dough! Even sexy lingerie won't save this picture.

I'm never eating at this location again!

Today was a slow day, so here are some random facts about me:

- When I was a kid I wanted to be a wedding coordinator. I used to buy bridal magazines and make up entire imaginary weddings. I saw an ad for this place and thought it would be the coolest honeymoon EVER.
- The more I learned about airplanes in Physics, the more I believed that magic makes them fly. I keep thinking at some point the plane I'm on is going to realize, "Wait, I can't fly!"
-I still have a baby tooth. There wasn't a permanent tooth under it, so it's just kind of hanging out. This is a genetic thing that I got from my dad's side. However, my gums are receding on the roots, and supposedly it's going to fall out soon. I'm supposed to go to the oral surgeon to get it replaced with an implant, but I can't for awhile because insurance won't pay for it.
- If there was ever any doubt that my parents were in fact my parents, you can look at me and tell - my mom and dad are definitely my biological mom and dad!
- I'm pretty sure a lot of people in my OT class don't really like me, but I don't know why. I guess that's their loss.
- When I was little, my favorite colors were purple and pink. My sister's was yellow. For some reason my parents painted my sister's room pink, and mine yellow. I did get lavender blinds, though.
- My room also had horrible green, brown and orange wallpaper on the CEILING. It was there when they moved in, and when we were selling the house my dad painted over it. I don't know why he didn't do that in the first place!
- I constantly disprove Darwin - if he was really really right, I would have died about 15 times now.
- I believe in evolution and the Bible. If God created us to adapt, why not evolve? He can do anything!
- On November 4, 2008 I was both proud of and disappointed in America. Proud that we did something I thought might not ever happen, and disappointed in the reactions of some people.
- My first college roommate had a crush on then-undiscovered James Franco. Every time I see him in a movie, I think of her!
- I get really obsessed with things for awhile, then drop them and never look back. For example, TV shows: Jeff Corwin, Trading Spaces, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, What Not to Wear (although I do still watch this one from time to time)... there are a bunch like that.
- I don't have a favorite color, really.
- My sister trained me well - I much prefered to watch her play Ninetendo rather than play myself!
- I can't stand things touching my ears. Seriously, you may think it's funny to touch them just to see, but you WILL get punched. I can't defend my actions if ears are involved :)
- In the summer if I've been wearing flip flops I can't get into bed until I have washed my feet.

Puppy foul - unnecessary ruffness!

Yesterday the big game was intense, but the Beagle ended up with the last touchdown FTW.

The kitty halftime show did leave some things to be desired, though. :)

We saw the movie Taken yesterday - it was kinda dumb, but it was at least entertaining. There were some annoying characters in it.

Not much else happened yesterday, although I did see this written on a wall behind EZ's.
