Five Things To Remember About October 9, 2011

1. Of course we slept in because of all the craziness from Saturday and Saturday night.
2. I really wanted to take the best friend and Ninja to Odd Fellows for brunch before we took best friend to the airport. BUT that didn't work out so well. Long story: I walked upstairs to start getting ready and best friend was right behind me. I went in my room and as I was closing the door she says "um, I can't get in my room." I turn around and no kidding did she lock herself out of her dang room. Keep in mind that this isn't my house...I'm dog sitting for my favorite dog...whose owner is my boss. I stay there all the time...and have actually locked myself out of their house before so this was just terribly embarrassing for me. I didn't know what to do so I called the boss. I thought SURELY they have a key to the door knob. THEY DIDN'T! She tried to tell me that the door doesn't have a lock and that you just have to pull hard. Well, she was wrong. There was a lock and we ended up calling a locksmith to come drill the lock out. He came just in time for us to have to leave for the airport and charged us $150. It was a terrible ending to a wonderful weekend with my best friend. I felt so bad for her.
3. Because of all of the above and not going to Odd Fellows we still needed to eat so guess what? My     oh so sweet and loving boyfriend, Ninja, cooked up a delicious breakfast. It all turned out wonderful.
4. I was pretty sad to say goodbye to best friend but I will see her again soon. We try to make the trip to see one another every 6 months. My turn next...off to Chicago I go!
5. Ninja and I decided to be lazy the rest of the day. It was cool and rainy out so we didn't feel too guilty about it. We cooked dinner and relaxed all night long. It was amazing and much needed.

Five Things To Remember About October 13, 2011

1. Last night was my first night staying with an old dog named Heidi. She is so very sweet and her parents live in an amazing high rise condo on Turtle Creek. I woke up to the most amazing sunrise view this morning from my bedroom. I've never seen a Dallas sunrise like that before. It has definitely made this day a lovely one!
2. I had a pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks. What a wonderful little Thursday morning treat.
3. One more sleep and I get to see Ninja!!!!
4. I met a long time friend for dinner that I hadn't caught up with in over a year. It was so amazing to catch up and share all of the wonderful things we have been blessed with and the lessons we have learned over the last year. God moves in the most amazing ways!
5. I feel old because we had dinner and I was home by 8:30, pooped, ready for bed.

Five Things To Remember About October 12, 2011

1. I got a free Chipolte bowl YUM!
2. I start a new dog sitting job tonight at a high rise building right next door to my office. I'm really excited because I get to valet my car every day and they have an amazing view of down town Dallas. Super!
3. I went to class and it was super boring as always. Nothing great to report there.
4. Modern family was a classic! I'd say it's ranked as the 2nd most funny episode, right under the "We locked our baby in the car" episode.
5. GOOOOOOO RANGERS!

Five Things To Remember About October 8, 2011

1. Today is the Red River Shootout! OU VS TX. It's always a big day in Dallas and a great excuse to get together with friends early in the morning and have some football watching, day drinking fun! We chose Stan's Blue Note as our watching venue. It was a beautiful day on the patio and OU kicked some Texas tail. It was a blow out game. Poor longhorns.
2. Bestie and I had a wonderful breakfast before the game at Cafe Brazil. I got the veggie tacos and they were amazing. Not to mention the yummy Holiday Coffee they have. YUM!
3. Ninja got here at about 11:00...just in time for game time. I was so excited to see his face. I missed him so much. Bestie loved him. I'm so happy they got to meet.
4. After the game we all went to relax for a little bit at home and played with the doggie I was dog sitting. Bestie took a little nap on the patio and then we were all ready to go by 6 for round two.
5. We didn't do anything too exciting though. Just met up with a few friends, played some giant jenga, ate some food and then danced the night away.

Five Things To Remember About October 7, 2011

1. Ninja called me at 8:15 am. I answered the phone trying to sound all bright and cheery...he could totally tell I was still in bed. Ooooops. He just laughed at me.
2. I picked up the bestie today at the airport! IT'S FAIR DAY!!!!!!!!!!
3. Since I've been dog sitting for my favorite dog ever, the best friend and I will be staying there all weekend. We went to the fair at about 1:00 pm after running a few errands. I got a call not even 30 minutes into the fair (we had only had one corny dog...seriously) that the dog was out and with animal control. I was soooooooo confused because we left him in the house, doors locked and all. So, we had to leave the fair and go meet this animal control lady....turns out, it wasn't even the dog I was keeping. I was so happy it wasn't him and everything was ok but so frustrated that we had to leave the fair grounds and go all the way back. We weren't in any hurry though so it wasn't that bad.
4. At the fair we ate all of the following: Corny dog, Texas Twister Tators, Fried Green Tomatoes, Fried Guac Bites, Fried Smore, and Fried Pumpkin Pie. All of the above was amazing and I cannot wait for next year.

5. After the fair the best friend and I were worn out. We went home, took a shower, ordered to go food and sat on the couch watching TV till about 9pm. We were both ready to go to bed. It was a little embarrassing. We both asked what the heck was wrong with us and we came to the conclusion that we are getting old. Scary.

1. I haven't ran all week and I'm beginning to feel it. I hate when I do this.
2. I'm off tomorrow! I'm so happy and excited about that.
3. I went home early today and cleaned my apt. That always makes me feel better.
4. After cleaning I took my Stat's homework up to The Pearl Cup. I worked for 1.5 hrs and didn't complete one assignment. I feel so defeated about this class I want to drop it.
5. Instead of going to class I met up with a friend for happy hour and dinner. That turned into going out till 2 am and singing karaoke. It was fun...I guess I needed it. Hope I didn't miss anything important in class.
