I cant believe I didnt update on anything new from last week! So I’m going to do it today, and with pictures. Because I havent posted a post with pictures in awhile (sorry about that! As you can tell, it’s been a bit crazy over here)!
So last Tuesday, we went into Sprint looking at phone’s. I had a question actually, I dont remember exactly why we were there… but anyway, we ended up switching providers! So yes, I finally got my Palm Pixi! I am in love with it. Seriously, I’m always on my phone now. I totally forgot I still have my T-Mobile Sidekick lol! So yes, Tuesday was a good day :). Husband also switched with me, he got the HTC Hero. I’m jealous over how many more apps the Hero has, but I hate the way the phone looks. I’m not a fan of bulky PDA’s with huge screen and touchscreen keyboards. Oh, I also got Panera Bread for dinner. I destroyed that dinner quicker than I usually do lol!
Wednesday we went to see Wicked! My 4th time and husband’s 3rd. I finally got to see Teal Wicks as Elphaba and Natalie as Glinda and I must say, I loved Natalie as Glinda! I’m sad she left the SF production last Sunday. She was amazing. I loved the mocking Teal did in “What Is This Feeling”. I’m also sad that Eddy and Patty left on Sunday as well. My favorite Boq and Madame Morrible!
Rushed down to stage door, you can read about my Wicked day here actually lol. But yes, it was a very good day. Even though I skipped eating cause we were running late and I had the biggest headache after the show.
Got new moleskine’s. These ones have blank pages, husband wanted a drawing book and I had my eye on this one instead of the one with lined pages that I got last month, but I figured to go with lined pages since I’ll probably write more than draw. So I grabbed these for husband (and I, shhh). Dont you hate when you’re so excited to have something that you kinda just sit there all excited and you have no idea what to do next? Yeah, that’s how I feel about my moleskines lol. I’m scared I’ll ruin them somehow! Oh and those are my favorite happy snowmen sheets! I *heart* them. The best part of Winter is busting out these sheets!
Chicken Parm from Olive Garden is one of my favorite dishes (I actually have a lot of favorite dishes but I pick this one the most). I tried it with fettuccine noodles this time, just to see what the big deal was. Annnnd, I hated it. Really, it wasnt that great. Never again!
I declared Sunday to be my Olive Garden day. I’m obsessed with Olive Garden and I dont get to eat there often cause obviously, its not cheap! So I decided to treat myself every week to Olive Garden! Its been awhile since we’ve been to the movies and I know husband wanted to see Avatar (but no way am I sitting at a movie for 3hrs) and he wanted to see Time Travelers Wife (I hate sad movies) so I figured we’ll go see a movie on Sunday too, compromise!
So we watched Dear John. Honestly, I didnt want to. Dear John is one of my absolute favorite books by Nicolas Sparks, I read it years ago and fell in love with it. I know the story gets incredibly sad, and I was hoping they would graze over the sad part since it wasnt that big of a deal but… I was wrong. I normally dont cry at movies but the part that made me the saddest in the book actually happened in the movie and I was bawling my eyes out. Husband didnt poke fun at me this time though. Thank goodness. The story hit home a little more this time than it did when I read the book since I know what it’s like to ask everyday if you got a letter since husband was in Basic Training not too long ago, its like hey, I remember those days. And I guess re-visiting the story, the part that made me the saddest was a much bigger part of the story than I saw the first time.
I thought the guy who played Mr. Tyler did an amazing job with the character. And I thought Channing did an absolute amazing job as John. I loved the movie, not more than the book… but… okay this is turning into a review which I had planned to blog about. Good job Zel lol!
I didnt feel like being home the other day so we drove around in circles around town, not knowing what to do after dropping Marissa off at her boyfriend’s house which was in the middle of nowhere! And we ended up at the park, playing with our new phones. And then it started raining so I decided to just go home. And as soon as I got there, I wanted to leave again. I’ve been grumpy lately, mostly because I’ve been craving an extreme dose of peace and quiet and I barely get any, so yeah. I’m sure that’s enough to make anyone grumpy. Anyway, that was kinda (by kinda I mean really) a bad day for me, I got hit with intense anxiety that night, it was almost painful. Made me miss my furball who passed almost two years ago.
Oh and do you like my new wallpaper? :).
Wanna know a secret? I take only gummie multivitamin’s. I was taking children’s Finding Nemo ones but husband didnt like that it didnt give you everything you needed, so I started taking these, the adult version. Thank goodness they come in sour. I’m going to be reviewing these on my food blog here soon. I’m trying to get my hands on the brand new Jolly Rancher Sour ones! MmM. My mouth’s watering just thinking about how delicious they would be!
I went to talk to someone at the University of Phoenix yesterday, I’m thinking of attending. The school and the program and the options sound wonderful. Exactly what I’m looking for, its just picking my major that I’m going to have a hard time with. The great part is, husband is thinking about attending with me as well! I’m pretty excited, there have been complications in the past that have prevented him from attending school with me, so I’m pretty excited about this :)!
Hey sweetie!! Great post… mainly because I know that if we both would’ve enjoyed hanging out together! I don’t know if I’ll get to see Dear John in theaters because no time for me :( I love Panera (of course we both do) aaaand WICKED. We should see Wicked together one day… even if we’re both in our 50′s…. bahaha ;-) Have a lovely weekend! I hope you and your love have a great Valentine’s Day!
Ah you should definitely find time to see it! It’s not as good as the book but its still very touching. And yes, I agree, we should definitely see Wicked together one day! All the pictures you post of VA makes me want to go visit. Your town is so much prettier than mine and you’re close to the beach! I can roam around and pretend I’m a character in a Nicolas Sparks book lol. Sounds odd but I think it would be fun! You have a lovely weekend as well! We’ll try the best we can, being broke college students doesnt help :).
Hahah. I can’t wait until it actually gets warmer, so I can roam around a Nicolas Sparks book beach… hahaha. I love going down to where the tourists aren’t on the beach and it’s more private and secluded and lovely. I love looking out for dolphins, too! AHH SUMMER HURRY UP.
[...] it burns. Seriously. Like something fierce. And remember how I was talking about my desire for the Jolly Rancher Gummies? They’re disgusting. I’m so [...]
