Things that anger me...

#1. People who don't do their job! Lazy people suck! Just freakin' do what you're supposed to! Oh, and stop sighing constantly, like you're life is just so much more difficult than everyone elses! It's not!!!

#2. People who find the need to whistle, yell, honk, or anything else at you while you are outside running (or biking). Mind your own goddamn business! I'm not commenting on your abilities or appearance, so don't comment on mine!

#3. Acura. Is it really necessary to install a light in my car that lights up when I hit 36,000 miles? And, if that light is necessary, then is it REALLY necessary to require me to go to your service shop to have the light turned off?! I don't think so!

Happy Birthday Hallie!

It's my baby's birthday! I need to post this blog before I'm completely incapable! Today's the NFL draft and Peter & I decided to celebrate by all day drinking! Leigh Ann & Brad stopped over and got to spend some quality time with the girls. (They loved Brad!)

Now as Peter & I attempt to wind down, the girls are totally hopped up on catnip and going insane! Here's a picture of my "little one." She's 2 today! She's one big baby, with a Puerto Rican bootie! I love you Hallie-bear!

Happy Spring!

I love spring. I mean, I SERIOUSLY LOVE SPRING! I am so happy lately! Peter even commented on how much happier I seem lately. A little sunshine can do absolute wonders! I seriously think that vitamin D deficiency plays a huge roll in the winter blues. Back in the day, during my rotation at the Buffalo Psych Center, I had the pleasure of working with a doctor who was a vitamin D fiend! He was obsessed with it, and for good reason! I won't go into details, but check out his site for some more info about the benefits of vitamin D! I suppose it's possible that the sunshine, even without the vitamin D aspect just makes you feel better, but I don't care either way. I can only say that I'm much more enjoyable to be around in this beautiful weather!

This weekend was great (once I finished my 3-11 pm shift on Friday night). I got to go to Conesus Lake where Peter & some of his friends rented a lake house. I want a lake house. I really do. After I got over my intense sleep deprivation from last week, I was able to enjoy myself.


Sunday, after returning from the lake house Peter and I took Muffin & Hallie for a walk which they thoroughly enjoyed. Then, we did something else in honor of spring! We went to the garden center and bought some plants, soil and pots! We made me an herb garden! I'm so proud of it! I've wanted one for a while. It includes basil, rosemary, chives, mint, and (of course) catnip!

So, for now, I continue to be elated with the weather, and life in general!

Looking Forward to Everything....

Yes, I am a delinquent blogger. I'm okay with that though since I've been busy lately. It's been fun busy! First of all, I took a much needed vacation to Key West. I returned last Saturday. Key West is absolutely wonderful, even in spite of my really bad heat rash and horrible seasickness! Fun, sun & lots of drinking with some of my favorite people. I don't know how you can top that! Here's a few pics to give you and idea of the joy that was had by all...

Despite having an absolute blast in Florida, it was wonderful to come home to my boyfriend and my babies. I think Muffin was having some separation anxiety. She didn't leave my side for a few days after my return.

I must say that the weather back here in western NY was a pleasant surprise. I don't think I could've handled returning home to snow and no sun. I love the sun. I missed the sun even more than I had realized. Don't ever leave me sun!

So, now I'm back to work and my ol' boring life that I'm determined to make exciting! I'm in the process of finding a mountain bike which is exciting. Life's been weird with no spinning (since my BAC membership is now over after 6 long years...), so I'm super excited about trying real live biking. I'm ready to get a move on....... Before Memorial Day I plan on buying a grill! I can't explain how much I'm anticipating that one! I've been cooking a lot lately (I have crazy leftovers in my fridge!) and I'd love to do some grilling...... My birthday is in less than 2 months, so I've begun planning for the big 2-9! Ahhhhh....... And I have no real plans for the summer, so I'm ready to start making some. Last summer I had 8 weddings. This summer I have zero! Yeah! As much as I love weddings, 8 was a bit much and didn't leave me much time to do what I wanted.......... By the end of the summer I hope to decide where I'm gonna be living & working for the next year as well. I'm sure I'll write more about that eventually, but there's a lot of time before any big decisions need to be made, so I'll hold off on that one for now!

Anyway, I'm so excited about everything right now. Except for one thing: A bird flew into my windshield on my way to work this morning! Seriously! Crazy! It made me sad, so perhaps that will balance out my emotions.

Okay, I think this post got a little ridiculous, so I'll stop now!
