Today is the work knights jousting dinner thing and I'm super excited.
Also, I found super cheap tickets to go to Helsinki later this year. This will be my 10th new country this year, so i might actually make my goal of 12.
And a Thursday question: what's your favorite season?
D and I got in a rather sizable argument last night. It's just frustrating because when he gets upset he said things he doesn't mean (I hope) and I just start to question everything.

My favorite season is summer.
I've only been to ONE new country this year. It's only May! 10 in four months! I'm jealous of your Europe location.
I did four last year, five if you count Egypt, but it wasn't really new in 2013, it was new in 2012.
By the end of this year, I should have five? 12 is crazy! I want to move to Europe.
Tonight I am going out to buy bacon on the black market!!! Super excited! Butttt it's maybe stupid. Will be spending $15 on one pack of bacon.

But you also have to remember that I can get to most places within just a few hours, so it's essentially like a weekend trip to San Francisco or something. Also, I just wait to find cheap tickets to book flights. The flights to Helsinki were £50 round trip per person.
And about the bacon, dude, I totally understand your excitement. Not about not getting bacon, but just about foods you miss. No judgement here! (high5)

Yah your's is a lot easier than mine. However, Dubai, Lebanon, Jordan, Oman, etc etc are all close to me too. It's only a 2hr flight to Dubai. We've just went there, but it wasn't new so it doesn't count. And 50pounds is cheap! Our tickets to Dubai are about $150 each. But in kd it's only 47. Although 47kd is 150us, it always seems cheaper since we only think in kd now.
We were thinking of going to Bahrain for a 3 day weekend in May that I have. Tickets there are same as Dubai. But we want to save the money because we are working on taking a trip to London on our way home this year. Maybe we could meet up? I'll probably be picking your brain soon if we can work it out.

Happy Thursday! I'm going to IPA Fest tonight for the last time, but Seattle Beer Week starts on May 8th, so I don't have to wait long for more amazing beer events.
My favorite season is Spring. It rains a bunch, but the nice days are so nice, and I love all the colorful flowers.
I have another office day. So, I'm wearing jeans and tennis shoes and getting caught up on random stuff and going through and pulling old files to shred. Fun stuff!
My sister rented a huge house in Squim for the weekend and we're going w/ a bunch of family. So, I need to do laundry, pack, figure out what all to bring for E, run some errands, etc. I really need to get the dog groomed too, but I think I've run out of time.
ETA: Fall has always been my favorite season. Leaves, sweaters, coffee, football. But, I am enjoying summer more and more as I get older and I'm looking forward to all the fun things we can do w/ E this summer.

Morning,
Still no word on my car. Last night we did a team event with Lazer tag in Tukwilla. I was so annoyed. We sit in traffic for 40 minutes. Team members from other branches show up 30 minutes late. We play lazer tag for ten minutes and then go home. Some team members live as far north as Bothell/Mill Creek. It was fun but not worth it.
Today I have H's car, so I'm going to go to the UW bookstore on lunch to buy myself and Bkb matching hat for the UW softball game we're going to next week.
It's my Friday. I have tomorrow off so I can fly to NYC and eat lots of yummy food.
My favorite season is fall/autumn because that is when my birthday is. Actually my birthday is at the very end of summer. I like fall because of the weather and the pretty colors.
Favorite season is summer, hands down. Baseball, sunshine. What more could you want?
I was up early to head downtown for a seminar. My eye has been bugging me the last couple of days so I have an eye appointment at 10:45 this morning. I also have a hair appointment at 6pm. Did I mention that I leave for Nashville early Saturday morning and I haven't done any laundry?
I have another office day. So, I'm wearing jeans and tennis shoes and getting caught up on random stuff and going through and pulling old files to shred. Fun stuff!

Are you guys going to the Olympic Game Farm?!
That was my FAVORITE place as a kid. You have to go!

Maybe. It's supposed to rain all weekend.
ETA: You get to stay in your car? Yes, this sounds good! But, E won't be able to see anything in the car seat. Hmmm...

I believe you are allowed to take them out of the car seats and let them on your laps. You drive around very slowly in there. I think it's like a 5-10mph speed limit.
However, in the rain the aminals (yes, I spelled it that way on purpose) might not want to come out and play. I don't know. We did always go in the summer time.

Good morning! James and I had breakfast this morning after Tman went to school. It was nice. I am home now doing some housework. I found a patch of gray on Sadie's muzzle and now I'm super upset. She'll be 7 this year, so she's not super old, but she's starting to act like an old dog and I just watched Marley and Me for the first time this past weekend, so I'm already fragile to the thought of her...going to doggy heaven.
Tman has his "Spring Concert" tonight, so I'm excited to see that.

I was supposed to go to a fancy work brunch this morning with mimosas and shit but I bailed because I am SO. EXHAUSTED. And Dan keeps texting me stuff like, "DO YOU WANT TO DO THIS? DO YOU WANT TO GO TO THIS? ARE YOU INTERESTED IN THIS?" which is freaking me out because 1. he is NOT a planner, so what has he done with my actual husband, and 2. I am so tired, please stop talking to me about doing things.
So out of it I forgot to finish this reply. I just noticed this window was still open, an hour after I started typing it. #winning
I'm hanging around the house, washing one of the dogs, vacuuming and hopefully working out tonight. I get to chauffeur h to go meet some guy later since he's not supposed to drive while on his pain meds. He is being a bit of a turd still so I might strap him to the roof hahah
