i do puzzles when left behind

Well this week has pretty much completely sucked! All of my friends ditched me to go on super fun vacations and i have been stuck here working!

Sunday Debbie left on a super fun road trip to PA with her friend Kathy who was moving back there. It was fun to read her tweets while on the road and let me say she didn't have all fun and games but over all i think she enjoyed her trip. She is flying back tomorrow, i can't wait to hear all about it on Tuesday when i work with her. that is if I'm not too busy working!

Monday Tara and Kristin flew down to Vegas for a 4 day 3 night party! i also was able to live through their tweets but it just made me want to go down to Vegas myself. Which in turn sparked my desire to go broke and spontaneously go down to Vegas during my vacation for my birthday. i was nearly completely committed when i decided to think about it. Damn being a responsible adult. i knew i couldn't afford the trip! it is unbelievable how disappointed i can be in losing something i never really had. i also started a puzzle this day in hopes to bring some entertainment to my week... little did i know that puzzles (or at least this one) are HARD!

Tuesday i worked at 4 am then came home and slept for 4 hrs then went to see Transformers 2 at midnight with mat... going to work right afterwards (meaning NO sleep for me) I gotta say the movie was really great and totally worth o sleep and standing in line for 2 HOURS!!

Wednesday after another 4 hour nap i was headed to Muckelshoot casino with Laura (after everyone else at worked backed out) to see Chippendale's! we arrived there about an hour and a half early and thought we would grab a bite to eat before the show. We saw a line and at first thought it was the line for the deli... little did we know that people had been standing in like for hours to get into see Chippendale's. We heard the manager announce that you had to have a bracelet to get inside and that the had already ran out of bracelets. so our hour drive was for nothing! We turned around and drove back to Kirkland for dinner at Olive Garden. it wasn't all bad because i was able to hang out with busy Laura for a little bit!

Today mat left with his friend Elliott to head up to Laura's truller for Daryl's Birthday party! i am unable to go with them because i have to work 4pm to midnight tonight. i was going to make the hr and a half drive by myself once i got off but it turns out i have to work at 3pm tomorrow and so i don't really find it worth it because it will just make going to work tomorrow that much worse.

So pretty much this entire week was full of let down and disappointment with the exception of Transformers 2 (which actually got really bad reviews... so sad) I'm hoping to make next week a little better! i an going roller blading (roller skating for me) with Kate on Monday. Tuesday is my birthday present day with Tara and I'm considering going to Laura's brothers house on Friday for their 3rd of July party. I'm disappointed that i have to work on the 4Th of July but there if a fireworks stand at the entrance of our apartments so Mat and I might light some off when we get off work that night. i gotta make the most of things or i am just going to be depressed!

The wedding

Saturday June 20th 2009 was the wedding day. it was at lake wilderness lodge in maple valley. very pretty setting right on a lake big huge window that look out on it for the reception. it was a fairly small wedding for what we have been to but very nice. the food was the best we've had at a wedding all made by her dad and aunts and uncles. the cake was very yummy as well!

The batchelorette Party

it was crystals wedding weekend and boy did we have a blast! the party began Thursday night for her batchelorette party! We all packed into a car and drove down to pioneer square to Cowgirls Inc and danced the night away.... we will just ignore the flat tire, divided group of girls and the major hang over the day after!

really 5 days?

So i was reading another blog i follow and they mentioned that they should be writing a blog post 5 days a week and if they don't they shouldn't even be blogging. Should i feel that pressure to deliver a blog post worth reading 5 days a week? i know i have been slacking on my posting these days but 5 days without questions? i can't handle that kind of pressure!

anyways besides that i have a few things to blog about... Saturday was Kristin's 25Th birthday. It was a nice celebration for her. we went out to dinner with a small group a great girls then headed back to her place for drinks, hot tub and girly movie. besides me not feeling very good i thought it was a near perfect night... very relaxing! here is a picture of the girls after dinner
Sunday was another fun day! i woke up far too early after going to bed a bit late. i had plans to hang out with Kate so we met up and headed to Snoqualmie falls! i just love it there but no one ever seems to want to go as often as i do so i am always happy when someone new wants to go. We got sandwiches at Panera in Issaquah and ate them on a bench in the park. Our hike down was easy enough although it was pretty crowded (i recommend never going on a sunday!) Our hike back up was a bit more tricky. we stopped to take pictures when i discovered a new path i hadn't seen before so i suggested we go that way... it was fun but a bit of a literal climb... i felt bad for making Kate go that way because she was wearing a white skirt and flip flops. Overall a great day and i was happy to be able to do something with her other then sitting in a restaurant!
So the week is nearly half over and i am glad to be getting into the easier part of my week because yesterday for some reason my body decided to get sick! i was asleep in bed by 5pm but had to get up for work early. today i am going to take it easy and watch a movie with Debbie. Actually it is "How to Be" starring Robert Pattinson. a small independant movie he was in a while ago. I've heard good things so I'm excited to watch it! i'll let u know what i think (hopefully anyways)

it fits!!!

OK I'm not in the mood to write a big long blog but i would like to announce that all my worries and panicking and freaking out was for nothing... My bridesmaid dress for Laura's wedding fits perfectly! now i am just hoping to lose enough weight to need to get it altered cause that would be just great!
