I HAAAAAATE YOUUUUUU!!!!

I guess I best explain my headline - being it's a very strong statement!

I am sure everyone has watched "The Grinch" - With Jim Carry ... Well I have been trying to figure out my statistics homework and how to use this SPSS Database. That scene from "The Grinch" where he is yelling off the mountain that he hates everyone - kept replaying in my head. Instead of thinking peoples names - I was just thinking in general - Statistics: I HAAATTTEEE YOUUUUU!

I had to pull it up just to watch it - and laughed way to hard at the Double Hate - LOATHE ENTIRELY! (That is at the end of the clip)

For the record, I did finally somewhat figure out the SPSS Database software - and finished not only the assignment that is due tonight but that one that is due on the 3rd!! (BOOM) I even looked into Assignments past that - and when I say looked into them - I mean I printed off what is due - and kind of skimmed it. It's like sometimes when I say I am going to clean my apartment - and I actually just get a glass of wine and walk around spraying everything with Fabreeze!

In general classes are going well - I am actually switching from Counseling and Student Affairs to Educational Leadership with an emphasis in Higher Education. It can be taken fully online and with my Fall Travel schedule - I would never be able to make it work.The other class I am in has TONS and TONS of readings. My love for reading is about as high as my love for Statistics - people question me all the time on how I have never read <insert popular book here> or <insert another popular book here> ... I guess I answer it pretty simply: I Don't Read! However, I am able to get through and keep up with the readings so far in class - WINNING!

I do make it a point to still make it to the gym!! I actually find it helps me stay on track better because I am more awake in the morning - or it wakes me up after work. (Depending on when I go) Also I know I don't have as much time to lallygag around. Tomorrow I need to get my after picture for the '6 Week Summer Slim Down' I was in.

This is what I should have done for everyone who was in the challenge with me!

Unfortunately, I don't feel I had that great of a difference - I mean I can tell a difference - but I don't have a 6 pack chiseled in ........ yet!

I will keep with it! It's not hard being I really do love going to the classes - and enjoy everyone that I work out with! I just have to stay dedicated this fall with the massive amounts of traveling I will be doing :(

I did get some cool new shoes for the gym!! Everyone that I know who owns a pair - really likes them. My cousin posted that these were on sale - so I decided to give em a shot. I am not positive how much these ones would run (usually around $90) but I got these gems for $30!! PLUS I didn't pay for shipping! I am thrifty like that and searched the Internet until I found a coupon code that offered free shipping. :)

Sometimes my pinky doesn't doesn't like to go wee wee wee wee wee into his home - but with enough force - it does!

Welp - it's wayyyyyy past me bedtime!

Ahhhh which one is for your eyelashes?

So I had to laugh - I run to Wal-Mart quick tonight cause I needed to grab a few things. All of the things I needed were in the hair care isle. (Which I don't know about other girls [and some guys] but I hate when I run out of my hair products - the stuff is expensive!! However, I do like to constantly switch it up and try new things [mainly because I gravitate towards the products on sale])

ANY WHO -

I walk into the isle - and see an older man looking at the blow dryers/curling irons/flat irons etc... He is reading over them and looks at me ask asks:
"You probably know this and I have a couple questions. First - which one of these things do you women use to curl your eyelashes?"
I told him that he made my night - then walked him over to the cosmetics and pointed out the eye lash curlers to him. He looked at it and said his next questions was going to be how do you use one of those things (a curling iron) on your eyelashes. So there we stood there in the cosmetics isle and I was trying to explain to him how they work. The amusing thing was that he was actually playing out the motions with me - and asked if it was painful. It was highly amusing ... He finally picked one out - Thanked me - and said he needed to go to the automotive department and buy a steak or something to regain some of his manhood back.

I don't know why but that just really made my night :)

Other than that - I have had a really productive night! Finally got around to cleaning my grill:

Just kidding - I am not Nelly

But after my co-workers freaked me out about burning down my apartment because of my grill.

This is the "grill" I was talking about!

Well actually they just mentioned that there was an apartment building in Bemidji that burned down because of a grill - so I figured it was high time I clean mine!

I also cleaned the apartment - did the dishes - and read the next two chapters in my "Reframing Organizations" book. Now to shower and finish a quiz ... (only 2 more years of school left - and yes ... I am going to start the count down already!)

Big Gulps Huh? Welp - See ya Later!

Locked Out!

I have having one of "those" mornings!

I usually get up at 4:30 on Friday mornings to go to the gym. Well this morning my alarm goes off - and instead of jumping out of bed to greet the day - I roll over and fall back to sleep.

I did jump out of bed at 4:50 when I realized I overslept. I threw on some gym clothes - mix my pre workout drink - and start looking for my keys!

PROBLEM!

I cannot find my keys ANYWHERE!!! I typically always hang them up inside the door - and they are not there?!?!? So I am looking in my bedroom - on the table - on the counter - in the couch etc... I went so far as looking under the sink where I put plastic bags - I went to Wal-Mart yesterday and thought maybe I put my keys in a bag - well they were not there.

True Statement!

OBVIOUSLY

I must have locked my keys in my car - I have been known to do that a time or two (or ah ... ten!)

SO

I grab my spare key and run out to my car and start looking in my car - pop the trunk and nothing!

That's when it hit me ....

There is NO WAY I locked my keys in my car - being I NEED my keys to not only get into my Apartment - but my Apartment Building. (It was early - give me a break)

So here I am - locked out of my Apartment building at 5AM - because genius me didn't think to grab my spare Apartment Building key. And, For the record, my car key does not open the door to my Apartment Building.

I start walking around the building - to see if someone is up or out on their patio - and then I see a car leaving the lot! Jackpot!! I start chasing after the car - waving it down.

I am pretty sure I looked like the Wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man

The guy stops and cracks his window - as I try to explain myself to him - panting - he kind of laughs (but I am guessing he just really thinks I am crazy!) He gets out of his car - and lets me back into the Apartment Building - and I realize I am wearing a shirt that says "Considering Rehab" - I was pretty certain I was going to have the cops at my door - because he did ask me what apartment I lived in.

So In Conclusion -

I get back into my apartment - and I find my keys ........... in my purse! Go Me!

I really think that is the look I had on my face - when I realized my keys were in my purse the WHOLE flipping time!

I'm Back!!!

I realize that it has been FOREVER since I have last posted - there have been many times that I remember saying to myself: "I will have to save this story for my blog" - now if I could only remember the stories that I was saving!

A couple weeks ago I ran my first 5k of the year - the time was not where I wanted it to be (just under 32 minutes) but being I threw my back out the week before, and didn't run (at all) - I can't complain. It did get me excited to start running again - so I guess it served that purpose. I can't believe HOW FAST some people can finish - I swear I wasn't even a mile into it and people were done!

I had to keep telling myself this during the race!

I did have to laugh a few times during the race - being I seemed to have misplaces my iPod Shuffle (still have NO idea where I put it). Anyhow, some of the songs that started playing where definitely old school! Black Eyed Peas "My Humps" Shakira "Hips Don't Lie" Spice Girls "Wanna Be" - there were some oldies - but goodies haha!

These past few weeks for some reason felt way busy. There were a couple days when I was in the office alone - and really wanted to pull a George from Seinfeld - where he makes the space under his desk a place to take a nap!

Some of the reps were on the road doing events and college visits - so it felt a little overwhelming being the only one in the office. 

Yes Please!

Oh and I am OFFICIALLY a student - I wanted to get 3 classes in this summer - but I was able to get signed into 2 classes. I am registered - wish me luck!

I fully agree with that statement!

Haha - the only "Back to School" isle I need :)
 

There is tons of other things I could blab on about - however I will end it with:

My Adorable Goddaughter Kinsey is growing up soooooooooo fast:

She gets her good looks from her Godmother :P

Also I have a New Niece, Arya - who is doing great - and super Adorable as well:

My Sister Kwynn's baby is due in June - and my Sister-in-Law Jenny's Baby is due is November - so there will be lots of baby postings to come :)
