lah tea dah

So... not much is really going on but I'm kinda bored and wanted to add a post. I always feel akward doing stuff like this or playing on FB at work b/c ppl can see me and they give me dirty looks. :/

Anyway - so sum up March since I left it off. Amanda's bday was a blast. Good turn out of ppl. Not too much drama. Super fun with games and drinks. All over good time. :)

The weather is starting to look up so - even though I really wanted to take today off and spend it outside, I came to work. BOOOO! It's ok. After work we can spend outside. Amanda and I both have to get our cars inspected today. I bet it's going to be a mad house anywhere we go b/c of all the other procastinators. But after that it's all fun in the sun!

Not a lot going on next month I think, but we'll see what comes around.

This weekend :)

I'm actually looking forward to this weekend. I'm hoping it will be quiet and productive. I've spent a lot of money recently but it was for a good cause - Amanda's bday (no expense is too much) and St. Pattys (it only come around once a year). However, there are still some things that i want to get. Like summer shoes. I'm real excited about sandals. I love open toed shoes. I think I hear Target calling my name. I already got one... but I figure at $20 a pair, it's really not that bad. Also... some new tops and skirts/dresses. I'm feeling the girly vibe (that is so not like me) but I'm going with it. We'll see just how far I go with it, but I'm gonna start now.

I want to spend every weekend outside... doing something. Even if it's just like outdoor market/mall window shopping. I want to be out, in the sunshine (when it finally gets here for good) and enjoy it. Who's with me? If it sways you, Allie... I might even go to the ZOO!

Outdoor summer events I'm excited for:
Brooks and Dunn Concert
Dave Matthews Concert
Baseball games (at least 2, hopefully 4)
Arboretum (finally - Amanda, ya down?)
Zoo (if Allie so wishes)
Random photo-ops at parks
Festivals:
Lone Star State Park
Fair Park Dog Bowl (not sure what it is exactly but I wanna go for the puppies)
Taste Addison
Lake Grapevine Fireworks (every Friday from Memorial Day to Labor Day)
Denton Air Fair Fest (for mom... she loves planes)
USO party for my bday.... oh yes!
Oktoberfest
State Fair
Addison World Fest (kinda weird, so not a have to go)
Addison Bookworm Bash (BOOKS!!!)

*ok, so maybe I went a little crazy... some of those are after "summer" but it's ok. It's still fairly warm here until November-ish. :)

It's a pretty good day and I'm in an optimistic mood. Again, I cant wait for this weekend even though there is no concrete plan. I'm also excited for some "surprise" Amanda and Allie are keeping from me. It's ok... I like surprises.

My most fav person is having a birthday...

... that's right. It's you, Amanda!! :)

And in honor of your day I'm updating my blog. Today isn’t so bad... but the month of March hasn’t gotten much better overall. In last blog I talked about a few upcoming events:

Sam and Pam moving - awkward. love them to death but it's so weird having them at mom's house all the time. It's most different than awkward... but sometime a combo of the two.
Irish Fest - missed it
St Pattys Parade - missed it
Amanda's birthday - TODAY! Celebrating it in full swing at work. This morning we got up and went to Denny’s for her free bday grand slam. Got to work right on time. Had delicious chicken salad sandwiches at lunch (thanks, Linn). Plans for after work: Check on the pooches. Get pedi/mani. CCA for a table I hope they still have b/c she wants its. Dinner with Mom, Sam and Pam. Cake and Presents. A fairly action packed day, don’t ya think?

Later in the month - Amanda's actual party. Should be a blast. I still don’t know what I'm gonna be... or how to dress up.

Just for redundancy - Happy Birthday Amanda!!! Hope 25 treats you well!

March

Soooo March is generally one of my fav months. I have no plans to change this but have to admit it has not started off with a bang. Granted we are only 3 days in... but I'm in a down and out mood and just over all not feeling it. With that said there are a lot of things to look forward to this month... Sam and Pam moving out here (will at least be very different and interesting), Irish Fest, Saint Pattys Parade and Amanda's 25th bday bonanza... there is also this thing I don’t have much info on but am interested in at Fair Park called Lone Star State Fest. It’s the last weekend in March so we’ll see if I end up doing anything for it.

Today is crazy busy but since I’m not really feeling it I thought I’d take a minute for myself (and fill you in). Have a nice rest of the week… I’m gonna try to do the same myself.
