In which I talk about my mom again. Sorry I'm not...
My favorite thing about having a doctor-mom* is not that she can diagnose via the phone, but that she can tell me how long my illnesses will last. This stomach thing…evidently a GI infection (I blame some not-so-fresh milk that my roommate and I both drank…she’s feeling it as well) and momma said just to get some rest and take it easy on my tummy.
So yesterday I slept from 4pm...

I'm a little concerned
that my stomach won’t stop cramping. Between that and staying up for baseball I also have only slept like 11 hours since Sunday.
Crashing and burning, y’all.
While clothes may not make the woman, they certainly have a strong effect on her...

Just say thank you
haygirlhay:
When someone says something nice to me, it’s like I have a syndrome that causes me to negate what they just said by pointing out some flaw.
Cute shirt? Oh thanks, I like it because it’s loose and doesn’t cling to my food baby.
Your hair looks great? That’s weird, I didn’t wash it today.
I love your jeans? They’re five years old with a hole in the crotch.
What is that? These...

Today's soda inventory:
1 Coke Zero
1 Diet Dr. Pepper
1 Original (non diet!) Coca-Cola
Clearly I need caffeine. And I don’t like to drink more than one diet soda in a day…aspartame and all of that. But I also don’t like drinking empty calories (unless it’s alcohol). What’s a girl to do?
Having a low opinion of yourself is not ‘modesty’. It’s self-destruction....

On friends and keeping in touch
I think it’s really weird that some of my best friends don’t know the day-to-day happenings in my life.
I know that’s kind of how it’s supposed to be when you don’t live in the same area as your friends, but still.
So then all of these seemingly inconsequential things happen to me for a couple of weeks and then all of a sudden…BAM! Major life event. And then I...

things that are not opaque: my skirt

I’ll be the girl walking around in the pink skirt with a faint hint of striped cheekies peeking through.

Standard Summertime Dinner
went to the gym, walked the dog, got home at 8pm.
Perfect day to end with turkey burgers, baked beans and watermelon.

Summer is going to kick my ass
Travel plans:
July 2-4: Atlanta & Greenville (SC) with the friends.
July 13-24: Florence (Italy, not SC) and London with the fam-plus.
August 25-28: Charlotte for Britney, Asheville for the cousin’s wedding.
Sept 2-5: DC/Blacksburg for a friendunion.
And I’m positive that at some point(s) in August I will be heading out to go to either the beach or Raleigh.

Yeah, ok, I'll do it.
I’ve got the US pretty much dunzo. Somebody find me a reason to go to all of those Great Lake states, please.
And clearly, Europe is my bitch. Asia? Not so much.

Umm…so I facebooked the crush yesterday. He accepted. And now I’ve bombed everything with my excitement about the Britney concert.
Here’s to hoping it doesn’t freak him out. (I have a feeling that if seeing my ridiculously drunk ass on Friday didn’t, I should be in the clear.)

I'M HAVING A CONNIPTION FIT AT WORK IN MY CUBE...
by “I,” I mean that I have one of the world’s BEST FRIENDS EVER who let me use his citi card to pay for them. I will, of course, be giving him a check when I see him tonight. BUT STILL. His bill will now show up with “Britney Spears tickets” on it.

Go on Carolyn, tell a brotha
My office received the following email this morning from our Civil Rights Officer. It is clearly intended for black people (please see the part about how Barbershops and Beauty Salons are great places to discuss it). I’m fine with that. Whatever. I’ll help out the “tell a brother club.” But I just want you to know, that if I sent out a caucasian-centric email like this,...

1. I found out that there’s all of these global running tours. So I’m going to do one when I’m in London next month. Oh, and my new “quarter-life crisis” plan is to take a sabbatical next winter (like Nov 2012) and have random jobs in the southern hemi for 6 months then the northern hemi for 6 months. I think that being a running tour guide would be perfect. I mean, I...

Conversations with my sister. At 8:30am.
For some reason I can’t make this a chat post. Whatevs.
Me: Well, I told Momma that I could do the Cinque Terre trek while y’all are seeing the David since I’ve already seen it.
Kathryn: Yeah, but I want to see the David, too.
Me: It’s really not worth it. You wait forever in line even with a ressie. Then you can’t even take pictures!
Kathryn: I know, but...

Coastal Plain League
That’s the baseball summer league. I realized when I posted the last post that the league has some random places and names. Blowfish comes from Hootie and the Blowfish. SC has a permanent hard-on for those guys.
Asheboro Copperheads
Columbia Blowfish
Edenton Steamers (huh?)
Fayettville SwampDogs (I mean, really?)
Florence Red Wolves (this really doesn’t fit any type of theme)

Lately I've been super creative with date ideas*
We have a college summer league baseball team called the Columbia Blowfish. They’re really cute to watch. And some Thursdays they have $1 beer night featuring cans of Busch Light. Which I just happen to purchase in bulk (24 oz) at bars anyways. (SURPRISE! GPOYW!)
Another idea: about an hour away is a drive-in theater. It’s in Monetta, SC and called The Big Mo. Movies begin at dusk...

True Confession Tuesday
(my first one!)
When I get hungry I go to Victoria’s Secret online and look at the bathing suits. Now, this might not be the psychologically healthiest thing, but so what who cares.
