Hello, and welcome to Thursday!

And I just made another resume, so I have two of those. So today is a slow day

pinkcow13 · June 2014

I'm craving tacos. Sigh. Maybe FI will want to go grab some tacos for dinner tonight. Slow day at work. I can't wait for Saturday - going wedding dress shopping for the first time!!!!!

@PinkCow13 Oh how I wish I didn't have all this family stuff going on, so we could have a taco date! I'm having taco craving too.

I am running on less than 4 hours of sleep so I am not a happy camper. FSS convinced FI to let him stay the night with his mom so I was up most of until 2:30 worrying. Then my dog decided that 5:45 was a great time to chase a raccoon into a tree and bark.

Luckily I have no plans today until work at 4:30 so I may take a nap.

beethery · June 2014

I think I'm making tacos for FI tonight. I prefer steak burritos to tacos.

Maybe I'll go to the other chipotle on my way home. They can't judge me for having two burritos in a week since I didn't go there for the first one. Burrito party!

I'm trying to think of a day when I'm NOT craving tacos...

VulgarGirl · June 2014

I got up at 7 and started doing things. It was scary. FI was scared. I don't get up and function that early. It's just not done.

But since I got up early and did things I rewarded myself with a coke slush thing from the gas station. Nummies.

beethery · June 2014

Get a plain slushee with no flavoring, and put disaronno in it sometime. Shit is MAGICAL.

This. I remember craving tacos yesterday too. @JCBride2015, once the family stuff is over, you will NEED a taco date. I'm totally down.

beethery FI LOVES burritos. As do I. He's had a really rough week at work. Maybe I will satisfy us both and suggest a taco/burrito night out later!

I left the house a little early this morning and was about 10 minutes from work (I live about 60 miles from where I work) and I get a flat tire. Ugh, but okay. I change the tire and put the spare on, only to realize that the spare is not really drive-able. I call a tow truck and they take me to the tire shop and I get a new tire. I was supposed to be early for work and ended up not getting here until 10:45.

My day didn't start out that great. BUT, it is Thursday which means tomorrow is Friday. I have an event tomorrow night. Saturday morning we are going to get my wedding dress!!! And Sunday FI and I are going to start registering!

Even though this morning has sucked, I know by the time I eat supper I'll be happy. There isn't anything in the world that my meatloaf, fried squash, and green beans can't cure.

The whole drive in to work I was repeating, "Tomorrow is Friday. Tomorrow is Friday. Tomorrow is Friday. You have a weekend of no plans being made for you. You can paint and play ESO, and kayak all weekend if you want. Tomorrow is Friday."

SBmini · June 2014

Happy Friday Eve!

I had a hugely busy day yesterday, now I'm trying to get back into the work vibe today. Obviously not very successfully. Lol.

I'm tired. Very tired. And caffeine hasn't done anything to help. In fact... caffeine hasn't been helping for a while. I've been tired for as long as I can remember. I'm getting tired of being tired! Can I just once know what it feels like to be perky and awake?

Now for the decision... go for coffee number 3 (at 9:40 am) or give up on the ineffective caffeine?

Is Disaronno a lot better than the other brands? I really like Di Amore.

Where do you get a plain slushie? Because I love me some disaronno. I mix it with a little Baileys and a splash of coffee creamer, so good. Or just on the rocks too because that shit is tasty.

I wake up on Wednesday mornings and go "Ok, two more days and you're done". Then I try to remember if I have an clients coming in on the weekends.

beethery · June 2014

@InkDancer Di Amore is probably on the same level, I just haven't tried it so Idk.

@MagicInk maybe I'm thinking of an icee. Maybe it was a white cherry icee, that's why it looked clear. That would also explain why it tasted damn delicious with Disaronno.

When I used to wait tables, I would see everyone posting on FB, "OMG, TGIF!" and I was over here like, "Yeahhh, this is the beginning of my work week.

First, white cherry icees are fantastic. Second, that sounds amazing and third, I know what I'm drinking by the pool this weekend.

When I cleaned hotel rooms or worked as a barista, I was the same way. Like..um...nope, not exciting for me. But I'd get Wednesdays and Thursdays off, those were my days!

THAT SOUNDS FUCKING AMAZING.

beethery · June 2014

BECAUSE IT IS!!!! I wish the lone gas station way the hell out by my town had icees, because I'd get one. I mean, pouring a shit ton of Disaronno into an icee while I'm still at the Target probably wouldn't look so great.

Not if you put the Disaronno in a root beer bottle. Then you're just making a float. Yeah. A float.

Cookie Pusher · June 2014

It's now crunch time, and it feels like I have so damn much left to do. BUT, we did the seating chart in under 20 minutes (including the time it took me to write people's names on little Post-It flags), picked the images for the table names, and decided how our programs will look. I just need to cut them to size and glue the pieces together. I also made my mom's corsage, so that means I only have to do 4 or 5 more.

The TK checklist says I have 9 things left to do including having the rehearsal and writing thank you cards. I think I got this. I might be dead of exhaustion before the wedding actually happens, but... I got this.

Thanks for your confidence in me! I'm sort of a giant stressball right now. Like, we're a few people shy of our catering minimum with 5 responses still pending - and final numbers are due next week. Hey, wanna come to my wedding? lol

Lol sure! Can I bring my "plus one?" ;-)

Just breathe. Pay for the extra plates and have them pack some up to take back to your room in case you don't eat much during dinner. Tell them 5 kids are coming if kids get a price break. You will end up married no matter how many people show up!

Well, of course you can bring your SO! lol

We only have to pay 1/2 price for kids and technically, our vendors eat for free (though we're going to pay the 1/2 price vendor rate so they can have tables and seats - they're our friends, so I don't want them to have to eat in another room by themselves!). I don't know if they count as half for the headcount or as full, so yea, still below our minimum. And I don't think we're allowed to take any food with us at the end of the night.

Thanks for the support! I may or may not end up in a corner crying before everything is finalized. heh
