It’s been a depressing week, so let’s change things up–show me your best NOT dance gifs. And still tell me about your weekend plans. I might be going to an art festival with a friend on Saturday, but it’s supposed to storm, so who knows. I might just hole up and desperately try to get some chores done.

I’m going to a 3 year old’s birthday party tomorrow where my kid will get to jump on baby trampolines. It should be fun. No other plans which makes me happy.
Perfect gif for the past 72 hours.
Me to this entire year:
I’m chilling with a puppy til Sunday. He keeps panting because my apartment is hot. I’m sorry puppy!
Also, the new Pokemon game is wonderful for anyone interested in walking around outside and catching cute creatures with your phone.
Tonight is the start of Outfest, a big LGBT film festival in LA, so I will be seeing a million movies this weekend. And this week can go punch itself in the face
Over the weekend, I watched squirrels raid unguarded campsites. They are a weird mix of scattery chaos, coordinated interference-running, and panicked infighting! I was a squirrel Jane Goodall. Also some squirrels can run with a whole corn cob in their mouths, but others will trip on it every time. We laughed merrily at those and were impressed by the prowess of the others.
I’m actually looking forward to this weekend because one of my best friends is coming to hang out tonight and tomorrow! We’re going to watch gymnastics and chill with my cat and then who knows what else!
Hey I saw that you said you got a lob and that’s what I’m getting today! It’s gonna be great!
I need to figure out how to style it! Let me know if you get any tips!
I’ve had a lob before and the best two ways I’ve found are to go really straight or really relaxed waves. For the former, just gotta go with the straightening iron. For the latter, I’d say a 1 or 1 1/2 in curling iron and loose waves with some hold spray. This morning I used Aquage sea spray and it’s doing okay. Next time I’ll just try hair wax which I’ve used with curls before and it makes them piecey and not frizzy and hold the curl.
I might grab brunch with a friend from college. Other than that, I will try to have some self control with Netflix so I can be a little more productive with some work/house projects.
Shout out to the Huckabees gif!
My boss let us know that we get the next 5 friday afternoons off as a celebration of our company anniversary. So I am PUMPED about that. I am trying to figure out what thing I am going to do right now that I never have time to do normally. I think I am going to start with a pedicure. Then probably a bike ride or a nap. This weekend I have the last of the bazillion wedding related events that is on the schedule. That will fill up Saturday afternoon but the rest is free! WOO. I plan to be lazy.
Update: I got my pedicure and now I am FEELING FANCY. My toes look great!
Aside from volunteering tomorrow morning, I don’t have a lot planned for the weekend. If it doesn’t rain, I’ll try to take in some sun somewhere, and maybe I’ll get some friends together to see a movie. And let me tell you how crazy this week has been: After reading an article about the recent events, I found myself saying “Kim Kardashian makes a good point.” What strange times we live in.
We’re going to see the Humans tomorrow! And then to a schmancy dinner! As a family, except for Packy who’s in Japan. Did you guys know there’s a city in Japan that has deer walking around tame? You can feed them and pet them! https://www.thedodo.com/thousands-of-wild-deer-rule-th-693323982.html
Nara! They’re so great. They really only come up to you if you feed them, but they’re everywhere!
Just beware the crows, one feisty crow stole a donut out of my friend’s hand.
But also: deer poop. SO MUCH POOP.
This is great. Now I must go here. Here and Japan’s Cat Island.
This week (and year) you guys…no.
We’re probably going to be lazy this weekend, although I do need to get out for coffee so…Also, Flanny, I’ve started listening to My Favorite Murder and it’s so good! Why didn’t we think of something like that, but with ghosts? We coulda been internet famous!!!
It’s really fun! But I know what you mean! When they end their stories I’m always like, “Please continue the tale but talk about how haunted the area is now.”
Right? I keep waiting for “and her ghost is still seen on rainy nights.” Bah…we could do this way better!
I started listening and I’m on episode three and I really want to get drinks with these gals.
I have a friend living in China and i want to send her some super american things that she misses…like easy mac and granola bars. Does anyone know if I will have issues sending that over?
I don’t know about China, but I shipped that stuff to my friend while she was in Australia for a few years and other than it being pricey, it got through just fine.
I think as long as food is processed it will be okay. You just can’t send real cheeses and meats and stuff like that, which might have organisms living in it.
Yeah, thats a good idea. Im pretty sure that the things I am sending, like Easy Mac are effectively 0.1% real food. So I’m hoping it will be fine.
Peanut butter? I missed that when I was in the UK (you could find it, but it was hard)
Wait – is what we have not peanut butter? There’s loads in our shop! (or at least I thought there was)
I have a bunch of shit I’m supposed to do this weekend but it’s been so long since I had a weekend free of obligations that all I want to do is crawl under the covers for two straight days. The main thing I’m dreading is a barbecue tomorrow because it’s in a suburb 10 miles away and I don’t have a car and getting there is going to either be expensive or an enormous pain in the ass. But I already RSVP’d yes and I don’t like to go back on my word 😦
Do you guys remember that interview I talked about in my How Was Your Day post, that I couldn’t gauge? I have a second interview on Thursday! I could be making 10k/yr more and being much less miserable by the end of the month!
Hooray!!!
Any career option that doesn’t involve kicking old ladies out of their homes just because of jerkiness is a good place for you to move to.
Tomorrow I’m getting a hair cut and heading to San Diego because my family is going to be there on vacation and it’s easier to take the train to SD than to fly to Phoenix. Here’s what I think of this week.
