Awkward and Awesome Thursday


This week has been dragging on, but Thursday is finally here!  I know you're just as excited as I am for Awkward and Awesome Thursday!

Awkward:

  • Going to Target 3 times in one week.  By the third time I felt like I needed a disguise.  That girl's here again?  Wasn't she here like 2 days ago?  When you live in a relatively small city there aren't a lot of shopping options.  The really sad part is that I could have gone a fourth time, but I went to Walgreens instead.  
  • I'm not here to judge, but there's this woman at the gym that I will never understand.  She comes in full makeup, her hair flat ironed and down, perfume that I can smell when she walks by, and spandex volleyball-type shorts.  I'm personally at the gym to get my sweat on so I'm not gonna waste makeup and a good hair day.  And the other thing is, homegirl is usually there with her husband, so I don't think she's there to pick up guys.  I'll never get it. 
  • My apartment.  It's been my humble abode for the past year and I'll miss the cozy feel it has, but if I never live in a studio apartment again I'll be a happy girl.  I sleep in my kitchen and I cook in my bedroom.  
  • Wearing jean shorts to the gym.  Who guy does that?  And actually, what guy still has jean shorts?
  • Panicking when I wasn't able to hook up my DVR to my tv.  Long story short, my apartment came furnished, but a lot of it stayed with my parents.  When my parents came to visit they brought the tv that came with the place.  Well, the tv is sorta old so it didn't have a hookup for the HDMI cord for DVR.  I thought I was going to have to go 2 weeks without DVR.  Which is a problem because how am I supposed to watch Grey's Anatomy and Project Runway at the same time? That's what you call a "First world problem."  But not to fear, I'm ready to go for tonight.  Cause I know you were worried. 
Awesome:
  • Baby Nina!  My cousin had her second daughter last week.  So now she has Norah and Nina.  Isn't that the cutest name combo ever?  Nina is my 10th second cousin on my dad's side of the family.  I think.  So hard to keep track!
  • Moving to Denver.  If you haven't heard, I'm moving back to Denver at the end of this month.  I did a year in the mountains and it was a wonderful experience, but 9 months of winter is too much for me.  And I want to pursue other things.  Like dating a guy who has a car!  And a steady job!  Dreaming big people!
  • Goodreads.com  I love it because you create an account and you make 3 lists.  "Read," "To-read," and "Reading."  I don't know about you, but I have so many books I want to read, but it's hard to remember them all so this way it's all in one place.  And you can also see reviews of books.
  • While I was watching the Emmy's I saw a commercial for Dunkin' Donuts.  Sometimes this means they are preparing you for the announcement that they are opening locations in Denver.  That's what H&M has been doing.  Please, please, please!  They have great coffee!
  • I found a new favorite blog, Dulce Candy.  Her closet is every girl's dream!  It's probably bigger than my apartment.
