Top of the morning to you all...
Another weekend in Eagle Rock is gone. tear. I'm really enjoying being down here in LA without the stress of school. Work isn't too stressful, but I'm a little nervous about this next week. I'm going down to San Diego Thursday night for a conference on Friday (I'm teaching 6th grade teachers how to teach geology), and then will drive back to Santa Monica Fri night to spend another weekend with Corey.
But about this weekend :) Got out of work Fri, went to the farmers market and bought some fruit :) Then went to dinner with 6 of my friends (Elise, Erin, Matt, Nick, Ben and Daniel) for Japanese food in Pasadena. SOOo yummy. I suggested japanese, because corey isn't super adventurous when it comes to food. and he doesn't like fish. So i jumped at the chance for sushi. Anyway, dinner was fun, then I went up to stearns and hung out with the guys for a bit, then we went to jack in the box, and they walked me home.
Saturday I slept in till 10:30, showered, and spent the majority of the day putting more of my stuff away (I still have about 4 boxes left... that's from like 15--you accumulate so much shit in college!). Then Erin and I made an Albertson's run where i got some groceries (thats the first food i've bought since i've been here-other than the initial stuff that mom and i got--pay day was thursday, so i actually had money!), and she got me beer--that comes in later that night... The guys wanted to do something fun, so we decided to play beer pong and go drunk bowling. We grabbed an early dinner at subway, went back to my place, and watched the first bit of History of the World Part I (hilarious Mel Brooks comedy). Then Corey and Daniel got to my place (Matt, Daniel, Nick and Patrick-who left when daniel got there-were already over). We started off w/ a little smirnoff, and then progressed onto many rousing games of beer pong :) Corey and I DOMINATED, even though i was feeling it by the third game! After winning 5 straight, we sat out a game, and then played the winner (matt and daniel) for the championship. They beat us.... but we were both down to one cup. And all drunk. :) it was grand. Anywho, we set out for the bowling alley (dont worry, we walked), got there, had to wait for a lane to open, the guys decided they didn't want to wait, and we left. and OF COURSE went to jack in the box (across the street). There, corey spilled ben's drink and fries, and seconds later, nick spilled his drink. pretty funny :)
Then we walked back to my place, and the guys all headed back to Oxy. Corey and I went to bed around 2:30 or 3? I was up at 6, but rolled over and went back to sleep (he was so proud of me!), but woke up again at like 7:15, 8, and at 8:30--got out of bed, had a headache, so i drank some water and had a yogurt. Then I slept from about 9:30-11, and corey got up at 11:30. We went out for lunch around 2:30 at my favorite SoCal Restaurant (camillo's), and shared this absolutely ORGASMIC desert (this is the place i've gone the past two years for my birthday). When we got back to my place, he had to make some phone calls for camp (which started today--he works at a kids daycamp and drives a bus in the morning to pick kids up-thats what the calls were about), and I read some. Since we'd had such a good desert w/ lunch, we decided to watch Chocolat (mmm johnny). I made quesadillas for dinner, and we headed up to school to play some poker. I won $2 on the night, corey lost $15. We left around 10:30 cuz we both had to wake up today at 7. I went to bed around 11:30, after killing 2 spiders (killed another--ON MY BED--this morning). ew.
AND now im at work for my 4th week!!! back to the grindstone :) hope everyone is doing well!
