I switched shifts with Angela today so I could babysit for Quinn. We had a good time..did every single puzzle on his shelf, read books, played cars, you name it! After babysitting, I picked up Katie and Mary and we made our way home to Erie for the weekend. Saw Orphan with Guy and spent some time with the Joe-ster. My favorite times :)

212

My Amazon order arrived today! I ordered it like two days prior, so I was very pleased with how quickly it arrived at my doorstep. I got the 30 Day Shred DVD and Hungry Girl's 200 Recipes Under 200 Calories book. All for $22 (including shipping) Ohh, Jillian Michaels you WILL be the death of me, but doggonit you WILL shred me before I die.

211

My summer grades were finally posted today. I got an "A" in Psychology and a "B" in Biology..with a cumulative GPA of 3.4 -- definitely can't complain there!

210

When cleaning my closet the other day, I re-discovered these super comfy Superman (haha) pajama pants the boy bought be a long time ago. I decided to sport them :)

209

Ummm, camo kitty? I've been such a terrible "365" blogger the past couple weeks. Can't remember exactly what happened, but I took this picture on this day. Soo, yea. haha. Either way, I am sure I worked and probably hung out with Renz at some point!

Can you find Owen in this picture?

208

The boy and I met up at Bed Bath & Beyond when I got out of work. He was in search of an ottoman for his living room. While there, I spotted Snuggies on sale for $14.95!! Now, I've been "joking" for a long time about getting one for work, but I decided I had to buy one. It will come in handy with the 60 degree temperatures in the studio when I'm stuck in there for hours at a time! Oh, please don't mind the wretched photo of me.

207

Slept in today, finally. It was glorious :) Ryan and I decided to go to lunch at Applebees since we had a giftcard. Invited Katie and Ryan along as well. After we ate, the four of us walked to Best Buy and then to the liquor store to get some stuff for Kris' party. I discovered they had pink lemonade vodka!! I had to try it, of course. Then, the boys went back to Ryan's to play video games while Katie and I went grocery shopping and stopped off to get our diet cherry limeades. Later, we went to Katie's house where she had cooked a yummy dinner. Then, it was off to Dennis and Kris' house for his birthday party. Best part of the night was when Dennis tried doing a keg stand, one handed. Needless to say, ice and water went EVERYWHERE. haha.

206

Met the girls tonight at Mad Mex for a quick GNO. Much needed though! The three of us hadn't hung out in a few weeks! Yummy Sangria, chips and salsa and good conversation is all a girl needs once in awhile, no? After dinner, Elisa had to head out, so Katie and I made our way down to the Waterfront to see The Ugly Truth. I thought it was way cute and Gerard Butler is muy sexy ;)

205

Had lunch with Katie, Luca and Dennis today. I was good and stuck with the grilled chicken salad :) Then, I went to my LAST Bio class for the summer. Woo-hoo!! He kept us for like 15 minutes, then let us go. Katie was still babysitting and bored, and talked me into meeting her and Luca for ice cream at McDonald's. Can't say no to a 3 point cone!

204

I was SUPER productive today! After having a healthy lunch of soup and salad with Renz, I got down to business! Did some laundry and while that was being done, I ripped apart my closet and re-organized. Then, I re-arranged a little bit, putting the cat scratching tree in my bedroom and moving the shelf out to the living room. Swept the floors, disinfected surfaces, etc. I also made a trip to Target where I picked up some essentials like shampoo, hangers and a new laundry bin. I love having days off during the week!

203

Went to my lecture class today for Bio, and the professor never showed. There was a note on the door from security, saying he'd be 45-50 minutes late. After an hour and he still wasn't there, we all signed an "attendance sheet" and then peaced out. Renz returned from Miami this afternoon, so we decided to meet for dinner. Decided upon Cheesecake Factory. I ate half my meal and threw in the towel -- I was stuffed! Afterwards, we drove out to Sonic for dessert -- diet cherry limeade ;)

202

Just me, being a creep at work! I am back on the overnights and it was freeeezing today. Exceptionally slow. I enjoyed a steaming hot cup of tea that kept me warm for a good 10 minutes or so.

202

Ugh..no photo :( I worked all day, then when I got back, the boy had cooked dinner for us. Steak wraps, fries and steamed zucchini. Then, we went and got ice cream :/ What a terrible calorie filled weekend for me. Eep!

201

Another lazy day of being sloths and watching Harry Potter. We took a break to go to the grocery store. The boy stocked up on groceries and with his 20% food perks, saveds over $20! Afterwards, we went back home and I made bruschetta and cheese stuffed chicken -- and watched more TV.

200

I tried to donate blood today, but after pricking my finger, I was turned away :( My iron was too low to donate, so they sent me off with a pamphlet on how to "increase" my iron. Lame! It always happens to me when I try to donate -- at least 60% of the time! Later, I had a very lazy evening with the boy. We made homemade wings and stuffed our faces with pizza while having a Harry Potter marathon. I haven't seen any of them, so I had to get caught up!

199

Got called in to work today, so I agreed to go in until 10 o'clock since I had to work at OG at 11:30a. After work, I stopped by Mr. Bubbles to give my (very) dirty car a bath. Afterwards, I vaccuumed up the carpets. Now he is all clean & sparkly :)

198

Worked all day. This is a shot of Janine "working"..haha. She's too funny and always keeps me laughing. It's a big joke around OG that she does nothing but text, so whenever she does work she asks that it be documented and hung on the wall as "Employee of the Month" hahah.

197

After work I drove out to Robinson to meet up with Katie and Camille at David's Bridal. Katie tried on a bunch of wedding gowns, we gave our input, and she ended up finding "THE" dress. So exciting! It's definitely a fun dress, and she looks great in it :) Afterwards we were all starving, so we grabbed lunch at Houlihan's. Had a fabulous server (no, really) and then had to peace out fairly quickly because I had to get to school to take my Nursing Entrance Test. Umm, pretty sure I bombed the math, but we won't talk about that. I guess I'll know for sure in two weeks!

196

I took the plunge and joined the world of Crackberry users -- and already, I'm hooked! I wasn't supposed to be able to get my phone upgrade until friday, but because Verizon had sent me an email telling me I was eligible NOW, I called and checked and they honored it :) Sooo, I got the (brand new) Blackberry Tour -- just came out Sunday! I got a nearly $300 phone, after rebate and upgrade promo for just $100. Sweeeet. I'm obsessed.

195

My first day off in a week and the half, so it was well spent! The boy and I went to see Bruno. I thought it was funny, but Ryan was not nearly impressed and almost left the theatre at one point. oops. After the movie, we got an early dinner at Longhorn and then went to Verizon to check on getting a new phone. Then, we spent the rest of the night hanging out. I put a collage together for my new "create your own" coffee tumbler :) Can't wait to use it tomorrow!

194

Worked allll day. From 3am until 8p. So, needless to say I was exhausted by the time I got off work. I spent the rest of the night hanging with the boy being completely lazy. Add in a Mike's Light Lemonade and it was a nice, relaxing night.

193

Ryan had his campus tour today and meeting with a counselor. I went with him and we had to embark on a 1.5 hour walking tour. Wasn't too bad, but it was kinda hot out and I was lugging my bag. After the tour, he got his schedule for his fall classes. Not a bad schedule at all, and he has tuesdays and thursdays off. Being on campus really made me miss Clarion a little bit.

192

Nothing too interesting happened today. I saw this weirdo riding his bike. Got to love the purple shirt and pink board shorts on a man. hahah.

191

I got to babysit the little munchkin today :) Melanie and her friend came in town for a concert, so I agreed to watch Joey. What a blast!! We went to Olive Garden for dinner and to see Uncle Eddie. Kid loves to eat!! He especially enjoyed the meatballs, breadsticks and chicken fingers. After he ate, he ran around the (empty) dining room for quite awhile. Then we went back to my apartment where he ran around some more. He certainly has his Aunt wrapped around his little fingers already! Who else would let him run around and eat snacks at midnight??

190

After a long day at work, Renz and I met up at Uno's for happy hour. Much needed! While there, she decided to display her sunglass collection that she keeps just in her purse. And she wonders why her purse weighs 400 lbs??

189

When I got off work, Katie came and picked me up and we made our way towards Cranberry. We got some lunch and our favorite Sonic drink, then drove around for a bit. She showed me where she babysits and then showed me a bunch of huuuge, sweet houses.

188

I had to work an overnight, so I was done with work at 9am. I came home and crashed for a couple more hours. Later, the boy and I went grocery shopping and then I spent the majority of the afternoon sleeping on the couch. I swear I'm coming down with something because I just don't feel right today. Head cold, maybe? While I napped, he prepped dinner and when I woke up, we ate. Steak, corn and mashed potatoes -- Ryan style.

187

Happy 4th of July!! We spent the afternoon at Elisa and Dave's picnic. Melanie and Joey came down for a few hours, so I got some nephew time. Michelle, Nathan and Abby were there too. Lots of food, music, swimming and fun. All in all a relaxing and enjoyable day :) Even though we didn't get to see the fireworks live. We would have gotten there too late, and traffic was atrocious.

186

Ugh. Another no photo fail, but to be honest, nothing happened. After work I made a grocery store run, then spent the rest of the afternoon hanging out. I had to be in bed early since I was due at work in the middle of the night.

185

I met up with Katie and Luca in Cranberry for lunch at Chik-Fil-A. I was good and stuck with the grilled chicken salad. Afterwards, I was a good girlfriend and decided to bring food to the boy since he was working a double, and I was right by his work. Later, I went to class and we did a lab where we tested the presence of starches, lipids, etc.

184

Worked all day. Came home to discover this creep in the closet. No matter how many times I re-fold my clothes on the shelf, he continues to climb to the top and knock everything down.
