I almost, almost made my goal of getting another post in last week. I was just too tired after work to go the library this weekend. Besides the whole working and having a job part, this weekend was really nice. Sunday morning Joey woke me up to go outside on the porch to eat Lucky Charms while we watched it thunderstorm. Then we watched Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince in bed on the laptop before I had to leave for work. I love mornings like that. They always lead to good days.
Speaking of Joey, we decided we really want to get a puppy together. Joey will probably spend more time with it by default since I work so much and also he is an animal whisperer and all animals love him. Even my mom's evil cat Suka, the mini-panther demon. We really want to get a little Welsh Corgie and uncreatively name him Welshy. I want to adopt from the SPCA though so chances are we won't get a Corgie but I still like the name Welshy. My favorite dog has always been a beagle and those wild wolf/husky mixes but I know we will find a dog perfect for us.
This week so far has been nice and quiet. I've gone running in the morning along the water and I always scare the ducks when I come panting by. I've eaten Rocky Road ice cream at midnight. I finished Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk in two days. I painted by toe nails a color called Blazed. I have strived to remember to notice the little things that make me happy. I restrained myself from clawing my manager across her smug face. Mostly I've been building anticipation for moving into my own place next month. I've been looking in Pier 1 at things I wish I could fill my house with if I could afford their ridiculously overpriced furniture. It's okay though because I have Target and an imagination and I will make my home someplace beautiful. I'm also really excited about my ceramics class starting soon.
I unfortunately got sunburned at the beach but I'm addicted so I'm hoping two days of skin rest and a better attempt at sun screen will have me back at the beach by Thursday. There is nothing like the tired you get from spending a day fighting the ocean. Sea sleep is the most wonderful sleep. My muscles so tired they are almost limp and I'm a little high from being in the hot sun for hours. I dream of sharks. Does anyone else experience that?

oh your morning of eating lucky charms on the porch with joey and watching a thunderstorm. sounds simply perfect.
oh a cute little puppy would be lovely.
oh, it sounds like you have been up to lots of really fun things.
miss you. xx
i def vote for a husky (mix). the best. except the fact that they require so much exercise.
I can't get over how happy I am that you're back!
That thunderstorm morning sounds awesome. I love rain.
PUPPY! How cool! And even cooler that you're adopting. That is totally the way to go.
You know what does wonders for sunburnt skin? Aloe, but put it in the fridge overnight first. IT'S AMAZING.
your days sound like the kind they right books about.
puppy!! awww i cant wait for that to happen!
Though I would replace the Lucky Charms with Honey Bunches of Oats, that sounds like my kind of morning. :)
I may be slightly biased seeing as I have an adorable beagle that I love with my entire being, but... I vote beagle puppy! Though some sort of husky mix would be fantastic too. With those gorgeous blue eyes.
With the right eye Target furniture can most certainly look just as good as Pier 1, I'd say. A $30 pillow is not worth it unless it's made out of cashmere or something, haha.
I haven't been to the beach in, oh, forever. But it really is exhausting, the sun and the waves sapping all of the energy out of you.
I'm very glad you are blogging. :)
I'm really glad your back, and I don't think I can say that enough since you are one of my favorite bloggers and you introduced me to FLB and I'm just so glad you did.
I'm sure Joey and you will find the right dog, and love it, and treat it well.
-m (:
