Spring is officially in the air in these parts (finally!) and, needless to say, this outdoor-whore has been soaking up every possible second.
I survived my 8 shifts in 5 days nightmare banking about $240 on St. Patrick's Day. Which is a pretty excellent total for one night. Worth the frustration? ............... Maybe ;). More on that later!
It's been G O R G E O U S the past few days! Up in the high 70s -- low 80s, minus the pesky summer humidity. Loving it!
On Monday A & I hung out around town and took a super long walk while I stuffed my face with Starbucks. (Hey, it's okay, I was walking it off, right?)
Tuesday we went for a nice ole 9ish mile bike ride to where my cousin works. Gotta love that the greenways bike path runs all the way through both our towns. Plus it's gorgeous. After the bike ride and after the cousin got out of work, we, in true "us" fashion, hit up Mohegan Sun for the night because we all had Wednesday off (thanks to respective spring breaks and a super willing coworker who volunteered to work my shift- thanks lady!). Fun, but .. sigh. It would have taken me longer to burn $35. Stupid silly me. You know you've reached desperation when you're furiously gathering all your singles and sending people to the cashier to get you a measly $5 bill as one last ditch effort to at least win your lost money back... lol. I was almost there, but, as usual, didn't quit while I was ahead. Wah. :p
Creepy-ass abandoned church we rode by. We mustered up the balls to go inside on the way back... eerie! |
Tomorrow I work until 4, hopefully another busy, money-filled day. Except, since I work one-on-one with the owner, I may or may not spend a lot of it whispering in her ear about who to fire. (What??? :p) Staff overhaul time! St. Patrick's day was manageable this year, but would have been a lot smoother had 2/3 of the staff not been stuck on stupid. But, eh, whatever. I have Saturday off so, I guess I can't complain too much. Only a few more hours of dealing with those clowns until a nice long day off. ;) And, when I get off, 90% change I'll be booking it to Verizon with the mommers to hook myself up with a spankin' new phone. Finally! And not a moment too soon. It's like the Droid knows I'm grooming its replacement... it has been acting up and I can't even open half my text threads. Petty phone. :p
Hope you are all well! I can't believe how much of a non-blogger I have been lately. I even went so far as to flirt with the idea of no more blogging.... gulp. We'll see though. I'm hoping to find more time eventually. I've just been clinging to every ounce of sunshine and nice weather. I even have a bit of a sunburn from the last two days! Which, normally wouldn't be a high point... but in March?? I'll take it! ;)
Have a great weekend lovelies!
