Summer

I am awful at updating blogs. My life makes me very happy, but I'm kind of a homebody who doesn't do much more than play cards, read, and watch TV shows with my husband, so it's not exactly like I have much to update on. However, it has been several months, so here's a brief list of OMG! stuff that's happened:

• In April I got a job at Panera working in the bakery from 6 AM - 2 PM Monday through Friday. It started out being awesome having nights and weekends off from the easiest job ever. Then it became increasingly less so week after week of going to bed at 9 PM (or, shamefully, earlier...) and waking up at 5. Also my boss randomly shouted at me one day and it was awkward but we talked and he apologized but it was still awkward and I got sick, so I quit early (like, two weeks ago). The end. Also, asiago bagels are the. best. ever.
  
  
• My grandpa, the sweetest man on earth, got really sick and I went to Nebraska to visit him. We had a few meaningful and emotional conversations that we probably wouldn't have had otherwise, which was wonderful. He had bypass (but really more than one. Bypasses? Byspass? Quadpass? This is silly) surgery and got better so I went home. Then I brought David back with me a month later and we hung out and became obsessed with croquet (seriously) and scored a free set (thanks, cousin's friend's mom!) and now it just sits sadly against the wall in our apartment, dwelling on the beautiful relationship we once had, probably. Also I met David's maternal side of the family in Missouri and hopefully made a favourable impression, except for the tried-to-wear-shorts-to-church thing. Oops. Also David's grandma requested a grandchild for her marriage toast to us, which is problematic cos we're not expecting one of those for oh, about five years.
  
  
• I read (and bought) lots of books and David and I watched lots of shows. Finished: Flight of the Conchords, The Office. Almost finished: Gilmore girls, The West Wing, True Blood, Secret Diary of a Call Girl whatsit, House. Currently obsessed with: Dexter. We're saving Doctor Who for later. We also play Pinochle along with Nertz now. Eventually we'll move onto Bridge.
  

• I'm planning on doing the nursing school thing at Pitt, but unfortunately English credits don't work toward a nursing degree, so I'm basically starting over as a freshman. Right now I'm hoping to work at some sort of women's clinic after graduation (in 2014, which SLAYS ME).
  
  
• I don't hate roller coasters as much as I used to.
  
  
• We watched Whip It and now David has all these aspirations of me becoming the next Babe Ruthless but I'm pathetic on roller skates so tough break, kid. Nevertheless, it's fun.
  
  
• I still don't cook. Ever. Sorry, Mom. My cooking prowess will be delayed until David gets tired of being the chef or I run out of books to read aloud to him while he's in the kitchen.
  

I think that's it. See you in another three months.
