Last week was a whirlwind, literally. I don’t really know where to really begin. I have used the last couple of days to think about it … and yet I draw up scribbles, meh it’s the best way to describe it. I should just write about it but I feel it just too complicated. Even though I get hurt all the time, I honestly don’t like to do the same. I think people should reconsider their actions and do the basic act of communication. Instead they paint a pretty picture to cover up their messiness that will just hit you in the face later.

So much for blog time. This week has been consumed with work, Easter prep and adulting. Monday I did get some family time and went to Barnaby’s, my absolute fav. It was also macaroon day at SWEET and TOUT SUITE, so of course I had to stop by. Nevermind the fact that i slept till nine pm yesterday after waking up on and off all morning. I did however get my FabFitFun spring box yesterday, it was fun mail for sure. Lots of bath and makeup goodies. Can’t complain.

Nothing amazing other than I hope and pray for some BFF time sometime in the next couple of days. Other than that I will sadly be at work. Well Happy Easter everyone.

Well I think I speak for all when I say I hate time change time. I feel all disheveled and tired all the time. Body clock needs way too much time now to adjust, oh old age. All i’m wondering is where is the petition to abolish changing the time twice a year. Oh well I sit here in the middle of the day thinking it is a completely different time enjoying my massive chocolate croissant and mexi-cola.

Anywho, this past week I was hit with the plague. The coughing, sneezing, snot and chill producing one. Not pleasant especially since I actually haven’t been sick in a while, well at least not like this. Which reminds me how much I should go and get my septum and sinuses fixing, UGH! You would think that after my 2004 fall I would have already taken care of this, but NOO. I guess I should actually look into it before my parents move and I have no one to take care of me after the horrible surgery it will be. Its funny I can watch hours of Greys but the thought of me going to surgery totally freaks me out. Hell the other day I got to go look for supplies in the OR at work, and I had a blast gowning up and digging up there.

So that was Thursday, feeling like death day, Friday I felt a little better. My sister came home for the weekend, so the fam went out to eat at City Center. We went to Sweet Paris, you haven’t been, go. Slice of parisian culture with the crepes and Orangina. I get the ham and Gruyere or the Dulce de Leche and strawberries, of course accompanied by a glass of bubbly. Afterwards I walked around with my sister around Urban Outfitters. I think its funny vinyl has become so big that they sell it, I did however fall into their scheme and bought HAIM. Love them btw!  Later I got some quality sister time. We never do that. I guess the age gap is finally closing metaphorically.  We have never been close, 10 years difference has been the blame for that, but it was nice talking to her for a long time. She even had a glass of wine with me.

Saturday, what a gorgeous day it was! Wish that I would have been able to enjoy it more but I woke up to no hot water. So then i binged on Grey’s while I waited for maintenance to show up. Once I could shower  I went to Tout Suite. How cute is this place. Located on Commerce on the other side of 59, in the ‘warehouse’/ EDO district, it’s pretty cool with a freeway view. The food, pastries, and coffee make up for it. Plus for the apparent thought of ‘i should have brought my laptop’ there is also free WiFi. I’m not going to lie, I went a little crazy. Went just to go get pastries and a cappuccino, and ordered a BLT on top. The pastries all come from SWEET, yes the place in City Center, so yes they are amazing.

So here is to what may come this week, leaving it to the wind.

Flume – Never Be Like You feat. Kai

This week, well, it has been a bit of a roller coaster ride. Being off for the first part of the week and getting a lot of house bits and pieces taken care of. I felt accomplished, the ride up. Being stood up by a person who you gave nothing but second chances to, ride down. Going to IKEA and getting money back, a giant discount and delivery, ride up. Wanting to hang out with friends but everyone’s too busy, but it is your night off, ride down. Having someone from across the pond tell you what you wish someone here would tell you, ride up. The moral of this is, that when the train pulls up to the station, you still have to get up and walk away. That is life. It is not fair. It is not easy. We don’t get the things we want and get the things that tear us apart.

The only real review from the week was that I stopped by Eight Row Flint. Talk about good margaritas, parking not so good and the food is delicious. I however should have ordered the chips and queso. Well final week of this semester is quickly approaching. Two assignments to finish, a quiz, a test and a final. I would do this all over since in a couple weeks I have to start statistics, UGH! I hate math!! I did get to glimpse at the past today to make sure the future is bright, and I had Torchy’s, happy day!

XOXO
