Look what I can do with my feet

I'll start off by saying that I'm pretty obsessed with that wedding video.  And Katie, in response to your comment: pretty much the same thing happened to me!!  I dreamed about the video and I've been listening to that song on repeat ever since!  I LOVE IT!

Last night, I saw Food, Inc.  As predicted, it ruined my life.  Thankfully, it ruined Greg's as well, so he's all for buying organic shit these days.  I'm pretty excited about that.  I assumed that he would judge me for wanting to go organic after seeing the movie.

As of right now, I'm in serious job search mode.  I REALLY don't want to go back to working for the school.  The only reason I would is for the insurance, but is my happiness worth it?  I'll be able to work full time at the park until October 13, and then I don't know what will happen.  I've applied to a ton of jobs via monster.com, but I have no experience and I'm feeling pessimistic.  I'm also thinking of going back to school.  For what?  Good question.  Honestly, if I could go back to school for anything, it would be for veterinary medicine!

Aaaah!  Speaking of vets, Molly has an appointment in a few minutes!  I HAVE TO GO!  Hopefully I can finish what I'm saying later!

Best Wedding Ever!!

Videos!

This is Molly showing her skills while eating dinner.  Normally she's a little more vocal than this, but still super cute.

Peanut and Molly playing in the yard.  Molly steals Peanut's ball and then Peanut tackles her.  It happens every time.

I want some Crest White Strips.

First of all, my phone is not working.  It worked the whole time I was in VA, and it worked when I got off the plane in NH, but then Sunday evening I had no service.  Monday morning, my phone turned off twice by itself, and I still had no service.  At this point, I start freaking out.  When I get home from work, I call AT&T and they tell me there's no outages.  So, I call Apple and I'm literally on the phone with them and AT&T for an hour and fifteen minutes.  I took my SIM card out a millions time, reset the thing, did all kinds of fancy stuff, and still nothing.  A girl from AT&T told me to go to the store and get a new SIM card because maybe it's the card.  So, I did that today and when I'm at the store, I have every bar ever and 3G service!!  They changed my SIM card and told me to "hope for the best."  Now that I'm at home, I still don't have service.  I have no idea what the deal is and I feel lost without my phone working.  Hopefully there is an outage, or something like that and my phone starts working soon.

My trip to VA was short and sweet.  I met my dad's girlfriend and I really like her.  She's pretty outgoing and down to earth, and not annoying like past girlfriends.  My dad's graduation was pretty boring, but my Aunt Kelly had a surprise party for him afterward and he was pretty surprised.  I got to hang out with my mom for a little bit and I got my haircut.  It's nothing too serious; I had awkward layers and I'm slowly working my way toward having a single-layered bob.  When the hairdresser styled my hair, it looked AWESOME.  Unfortunately, I'm totally uncoordinated when it comes to using a brush and a hair dryer at the same time, so my hair hasn't looked awesome since.  

I got to hang out with my brothers for a little bit.  Unfortunately, I think Seth is back to his old habits.  You can totally tell when he's not clean because he's angry and irrational and ridiculous at times.  Apparently he's moving down to Richmond where his friend has a "guaranteed job as a cook" lined up for Seth.  I guess my dad gave Seth the deadline of August 1st, to get a job or go to school, or he has to move out.  

Also, the most exciting part of my trip was meeting up with one of my BFFs from high school, Carnita.  I have known her since 5th grade and we were really good friends, but lost touch during college.  She was never one for technology, like no AIM or facebook, so it was impossible to keep in touch with her.  I have been thinking about her a lot recently, and last week she joined facebook!!  She saw that I was going to be in VA and she stalked me and met up with me for an hour and then drove me to my haircut appointment.  Catching up with her was like medicine for my soul.  She has a 3 year old son who wears tiny gangsta hats and holds doors for people.  Oh!  Carnita is working as a paraprofessional just like me!  What are the odds?!!

David took me for a ride on the motorcycle!!  It was  little bit terrifying at first, but it was also really neat.  While on a motorcycle, you see things that you would never see if you were in a car.  Also, you get to smell all the flowers and freshly cut grass.  It's pretty neat.

I think that's all I have to say.  Tomorrow is my interview at EMS.  Hopefully they'll hire me on the spot.  Does anybody have plans for the 4th of July?  I'm pretty sure it's going to rain here, for the 40th day in a row!!  And that is no exaggeration!  It has rained so effin' much!  I'm so depressed!!

Pictures!

I have a runny nose.

Well, I'm stuck working in the campground.  I'm breaking all of my rules by being on the internet right now, but whatev.  There's about 4 people in the campground and it's rainy and stupid and slow and boring.  A girl Sarah is supposed to be working 12-8, and she hasn't shown up yet (it's 4:30) and isn't answering her phone.  Apparently she worked here a few years ago and had to quit becuase she was going to school, but now she's back!  I told Greg I thought it was a bad idea to hire her back, because she has like 3 other jobs and can only work Wednesdays and Sunday, and we already have coverage those day; we really don't need her.  Her first day, she was 45 minutes late, her second day she had to leave 3 hours early, and now this.  Apparently she was awesome when she worked here before, but I say she sucks.  And, she totally reminds me of Carol.  She has the same build (i.e. round face, hips, everything), and kind of the same personality (i.e. weird jokes, always sick). 

Good news!  I only have two more days of school left!!!  Tomorrow I'll get out at 12 and on Tuesday I get out at 10 and then I'm done!!  I totally skipped school on Thursday and Friday.  Thursday I did a lot of nothing and it was great.  On Friday, Greg and I went to Boston with our "friends" Tara and Russ.  We went to the aquarium and we went on the Duck Tours.  I don't know if you're familiar with those, but you get a tour of the city in a crazy vehicle that is both a car and a boat.  It's pretty sweet.  The aquarium was okay.  Not as cool as Balitmore, but that could be due to the fact that there were about 50 field trips there and I could hardly breathe!  For dinner, we went to this pizza place called Upper Crust.  Nathan and I ate there pretty much every night during our trip to Boston, so I convinced everyone that Upper Crust was where we needed to go.  Seriously, it is the most delicious pizza I've ever had.  If we go to Boston when you're here, I suggest we go there.  The trip to Boston was fun, for the most part.  But I don't know if it's because I secretly hate Tara, or if we're too different, but I just never really have anything to talk about with her and she's not really funny (which is a MUST, if you want to be friends with Kendra Cox).  I feel like her and Russ don't have anything to talk about with Greg, either, because all they freaking talk about is park stuff.  It's really fuckin' annoying.  I mean, I work at the park, I can relate to what they're talking about, but all day?  Seriously?  So, for the most part, I just sit silently and think about what I can eat for dinner.  And Russ is apparently God's gift to fixing things, so that's pretty much all he talks about, when he's not talking about the park.  When we were on the Duck Tour, we went under some bridge and he would not stop talking about the amount of steel used to make the bridge.  He was way too excited about it, like to the point of needing some alone time. 

Also on Friday was my Relay for Life with my softball team.  I was planning on going right at the start of it and staying for a few hours.  Unfortunately, Tara is the one who drove to Boston, so when her and Russ wanted to keep looking at shit, I couldn't really say no.  We ended up getting home at 9:30 and the Relay was about an hour from my house.  Yeah, that wasn't happening, and frankly, I didn't really feel like going anyway.  So, I called the captain of our team and explained the situation and was like "Well, I'm going to try to get there at 6am, because I have to work at 8."  She was like "you have to work??!!  Don't come here!  We understand!  Don't feel bad!!"  I was pretty happy she said that to me, so I didn't argue with her. 

My Saturday and Sunday has been pretty uneventful.  It's seriously rained almost everyday in June and the temperature hasn't gotten about 70 and I'm totally depressed about this.  It's almost 4th of July and I'm still wearing hoodies!!  I wish it would just be summer already!!  Oh!!  Something really exciting-I have an interview at this store called EMS (Eastern Mountain Sports).  This is pretty much my dream job.  This is seriously the coolest store ever and I plan on retiring from this place.  As of right now, I'll only be working like one or two days a week (if they're willing to do that) because really I just want the discount.  However, the manager wants to interview me on Friday, and I totally forgot that I'm going to be in VA on Friday (I'm going there for 2 days to watch my dad graduate from college and party like it's 1999).  So, I called the manager to see if I could reschedule it and she's never freakin' there!  I hope this doesn't hurt my chances of getting my dream job! 

Should I buy tickets for Harry Potter?  I'm totally serious about going to see it at midnight, so before I go buying tickets, I want to make sure you are, too. 

Okay, Sarah (the girl who's supposed to be working) just called and "totally forgot that she's supposed to work today!!"  I was like "Well, by the time you get here, you'll only work for 2 hours and that's pointless.  Don't worry about it." 

Well, I think that's all I have to say.  I will post pictures later.  Good day!

It's a small world

Yesterday, Greg and I walked through the SCA camp, by the cabins I lived in.  While walking, we saw a few of the SCA kids outside, chopping wood and I recognized one of them!!  It was a kid named Thomas Hodge (he goes by Hodge) that was in a bunch of my classes at CNU!!!!!!!  It was so weird seeing him.  It was like a little taste of home.  But he seems to be enjoying his time with the SCA, so that's cool.  We weren't really friends, but we were in a bunch of classes together and we talked in class.

I just thought it was so crazy that someone I know is up here.  I wanted to share.

I have two softball games this week.  Bleh.  I wonder what kind of drama we'll encounter this week...
