The weekend is almost over!!

It feels like this weekend was nice and long - which makes me very very happy! I've really had a good time. Friday we all got a little carried away with the drinking - Kelly and Will were trashed at like 8 at night! That was funny watching Will stumble down the stairs! Then Kelly rode the bull at Daisy Dukes. It was just crazy!... in a good way.
Yesterday was fun too. I spent a whole 3 hours on straightening my hair and then after 3 hours when it was only half way done I decided to quit and sprayed water all over my hair and it instantly went back curly. Ugh. Oh well. I went to a bachelorette party with Kelly and that was fun too! Soho East... where all of the bad dancers go! Oh my gosh - seriously bad dancers! It was fun to watch though. Then the drama that some of the girls brought along was funny to watch too! Kelly, maybe this is why you don't have a lot of friends that are girls - if that was what I hung out with all of the time I think I'd never be around them - I just can't associate with that. But they were alright. The drama could have been left out of the night and I wouldn't have cared. Oh - and what was up with those guys at Soho East? There were all of these guys dressed up like they were from the late 70's early 80's! Strange.
And then there's today - it's beautiful and sunny... AGAIN! I think it's basically been sunny every day for a few months. Let's hope that this weather carries over into the middle of September! Keep your fingers crossed.
That's all for now.
Hope everyone had an awesome weekend!

Frustration inc.

:-P! A BIG one of those!! So I guess I deserve this in some sick and twisted way... a co-worker was late today. So because I'm not certified I can't officially work until a co-worker is with me that is certified and because my co-worker was late, I had to stay an extra 10 minutes at work. This would normally not bother me, but I REALLY needed to be somewhere at 3:15 today. It's a little tough to make it to the animal hospital when I am in Wayne county, have to travel home, and then to the animal hospital. SO i had to cancel the appointment and they have nothing available for another week! So now our dog has to just suck it up and deal for ANOTHER FREAKIN' WEEK! I'm just frustrated because she got hurt last weekend and I'm not sure that the extremely long nails are helping her cause... they might be the root of the problem. But now I have to wait til God knows when to take her in. They're only open during normal business hours and my hours NEVER work with them. I'm so pissed off I could break a window! I don't know why this pisses me off so much, I guess I just REALLY wanted to get this over with. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Busy bee = me (& and Sean too!)

Well I made it back to Rochester after a crazy and fun weekend in J-town. I had my second fitting for my dress and trial hair-do run on Saturday and then helped get things ready for the bridal shower that my sister and lynn threw for me today. Then when I couldn't help anymore I sat outside and enjoyed the weather and Alexander's cuteness. He's almost 9 months old now!!! I should post some pictures of him. I think my dad got a great shot of us this weekend. Anyway - I'm exhausted. I never thought I'd have a problem with people watching me, but today was a little overwhelming. I had almost 50 people watching me open presents and every move I made. The best part - there will be over 3 times that many people at out wedding and here I am nervous with 50 people!! I guess it's a nice practice for me to get used to having eyes on me. After a while I wanted someone else to get some attention so I had Sean's neices help me open presents! That worked, somewhat. The shower went great though - more presents than I know what to do with right now! We sure would like a house about now - because then MAYBE we'd be able to fit everything.
Well it's after 1 and i'm ready to sleep for 17 hours. Good night!

Hot Hot Heat! :P


First I thought I'd share with everyone Sean and Will watching Queer Eye for the Straight Guy!
Sorry the picture isn't the best - but you all get the point :) Will came over last night for a little taco night :) They were SOOOO good! Sean did a super duper awesome job. (lol)

Man is it HOT here! I tried to take The Nut for a walk down by the river and I had to carry her back from the river because she was too hot and just kept laying in the shade and looking at me. Poor thing - she's just trying to deal with this heat. Funny - a Cali dog can't handle the heat! HA!! Well - most of you just don't realize how cold it is, especially in Pacifica.
Anyway - I'm back to working my normal job. Overall I like it. There's this girl I work with and I have this feeling that she doesn't like me. I'm trying to figure her out. She's so much more friendly to my co-workers than she is to me. I've never really had this happen like this before. She's a very normal person - well maybe not. but oh well. I'm not losing sleep or crying over it! :)

Wedding plans are coming along nicely. Hope everyone has September 17th set aside - PAR---TAYYYY!
The cake and wedding music are the only big to-do's left. Can't wait til I say "I'm finished!!!" It'll be fun though - unless a certain someone doesn't show up...but I have faith he won't disappoint me - he's stuck with me for GOOD! ;)

That's about all that's going on for now. How's everyone else doing?

Back in J-town

Well I'm back in the hometown for the week... took "The Nut" back with me... thought if I took her she'd be less likely to freak out because the fireworks by our apartment would scare her. Turns out I was way wrong... down here on the lake neighbors have been setting off fireworks since I got here at 9:30 and it's 11pm now. Sooooo there goes my theory! She's so scared - poor thing.

Mike, Lynn and 'Zander were here tonight... he's such a cute little baby!!! He must have given me 10 kisses or more! I don't mind that kind of slobber ;)

That's about all that's going on here. How was everyone's 4th of July? I'd love to hear...

ciao!
Christine

p.s. I still miss you seaner!
