Day 358/365 (July 10, 2015)

Was at work almost the entire day which was not the plan, then went to run some errands. I popped into a GNC, Michaels, Harmon Cosmetics, and Trader Joe's. Went home and put food away then I went to the kinky boots lotto. I wanted to see the show since Jake was on as Charlie but i don't like the lotto seats so much, so I was torn. I met up with Holly who was definitely trying and she knew i was coming but she still only put down for 1 ticket so i read her the riot act and was like you always always always put down for two tickets no matter what.

I did end up winning but decided to just get the ticket for Holly because I knew the seat would be in the box and there is no point going to see the show if you can't see half of it. Then I went with her to the evil cookie place while she ate a cookie which was torture. lovely convo with her but i wanted a cookie so badly and i remained strong. Also ran into Zach and Brian. Then Anna took her break and I went for more torture with her and Holly while they ate pizza for dinner. It hurt being strong and not giving into temptation but it was nice to chat with them.

Then i went home and had dinner and worked on some arts and crafts for the wedding... different rainbow options.

I made super yummy cauliflower fried rice.

Day 342/365 (June 24, 2015)

Since it was too hot yesterday to bake I popped into the evil cookie place to bring day old treats so they could have something. I also realized i forgot my breakfast and lunch at home which sucked!

I ate a few cookies and felt sick, oops! We had a very long meting over the day and I had to duck out early because of training. I was also starving since I didn't have lunch so I ate two bananas and was feeling very stressed because of all i needed to do.

Turns out that was a winning combination because i was a beast during training. I plowed through everything and Travis even had to add stuff not planned from his list, and had time to stretch! I mean i did 20 jump squats with out stopping!

Then i went home and tackled my massive to do list (which grew after photo was taken) and I knocked everything off except the clouds for the rainbow because I broke the rainbow and had to fix it... need to come up with a plan B... then we watched the premier of BIG BROTHER!!!!

Day 341/365 (June 23, 2015)

Today i worked, I also sent out a press release which made me feel pretty good/nervous for the concert.

I also had my Jenny appointment and went to Fairway for some cake flour. Then I proceeded to have a mini meltdown about making the cake for Lola's party... I may have bitten off more than I can chew with my timeline since I realized my Big Brother thing starts way earlier than I anticipated.

It was also obnoxiously hot and humid out, at one point it was 88*, feels like 95* aka shoot me. Went to the evil cookie place and saw Anna.

The rest of the evening was spent on the couch with Fred and Charlie cuddling. Charlie also liked to stay under Karen's umbrella.



so hot

Day 330/365 (June 12, 2015)

Despite my fun evening out last night I still managed to get up and go to the office early! Got to the street just about 8:45 to discover that it was closed off because there was a transformer fire close by. The fire department had said originally that we could get onto the street in like 15-30 minutes. Around 9:45 with no sign of change I finally went home. I finished Pinkie Pie and did a few other tings before visiting Anna at her first shift (training) at the evil cookie place, then off to training... oops! There was a cute puppy on the way back!

Travis kicked my butt at training and then I went to Trader Joe's and back home. Finally i headed back to the office and made sure to leave out money for the cleaning lady... they had only opened the street up around 3:30! and our building just barely made the cut because it was roped off right after our door so the restaurant couldn't even get back in! I made my stuffed peppers again, yum!

Then I went back home and Sasha and I watched the first episode of season 3 of Orange Is The New Black.

Day 328/365 (June 10, 2015)

Went to work, then came home and I embarked on a baking and arts and crafts palooza!

First I made browned butter rice krispy treats, then I made nutella chocolate chip cookies. After which I made a card for Briana, things to go on the side of the evil cookie place box so its name was blocked, and then I started Lola's card. I was so proud of myself because i freaking drew Pinkie Pie! Sadly i messed up my vision a bit but accidentally highlighting part of it with  sharpie when i didn't mean to, so now i want to see if i can fix it with white out or if I should just let it go.

I also found Charlie sleeping in the drier which is so dangerous but it was pretty cute. After the photo op I kicked him out with difficulty and shut it.

Day 326/365 (June 8, 2015)

Day began with work where i stayed longer than planned because I was delaying going home. Then on my way home I was tapped on my back and discovered it was by Sasha's friend David Singletary. We had a lovely chat for a bit, so that was a pleasant surprise. Then I went to the evil cookie place where i went out of control! I got my new favorite strawberry rhubarb and was torn between getting other favorites blueberry cobbler or chocolate covered pretzel... well they had blueberry cobbler in the day old treats bin (package of 2) so i got them and one of the fresh other two cookies. I didn't mean to eat all 4 but i did.

Then when i went home it is a good thing Karen ended up not going to work today because I left my keys in a different bag and was locked out! My replacement phone case came in the mail so i did the water test which worked and put my phone in the case. It is so much better than the other one which is weird because there are only two slight differences but they make a huge impact!

Also decided I am going to Attitash with the roommates at the end of the month which should be fun!

Charlie had some fun with a leaf nd Fred is just adorable/pitiful.

Day 320/365 (June 2, 2015)

Went to work then headed out to my Jenny appointment and Trader Joes. Rain, so much rain, and cold! Got home put stuff away and then relaxed for a touch before heading out to training. Boy oh boy this was an intense one! I sweat so much and it was difficult but i got through! Naturally i went to the evil cookie place to celebrate... oops! Key Lime and White Island are yum!int of coconut flavor as I read online, but it didn't work... probably didn't use enough.

Fred and Charlie being cute.

Day 318/365 (May 31, 2015)

Woke up with a very sore body so I had a lazy morning then headed out to meet up with ina. It was so nice to see her and we caught up with each other in Bryant Park before going on a quest. We visited both Midtown Comics and Jim Hanley's Universe and various Game Stops in pursuit of a TMNT Raphael figurine. It began to rain like crazy... aka monsoon! Luckily we avoided some of the worse boughts of it. Then i went to the evil cookie place and got myself and Karen some cookies.

Headed home and freshened up a bit then Sasha and I headed out to Karen's Aunt Mary's wake. We didn't get lost, so proud!

Then we headed home and I finally ate dinner.

Here is Fred trying to sleep around Sasha's clutter.

Day 315/365 (May 28, 2015)

After work I went home and made some Hunger Games Mockingjay symbols out of chocolate (chocolate art) and made some cards and cupcake boxes. I also went to the evil cookie place for Broadway Bakes.. This time got a photo with Melaine Moore, Ricky Ubeda, and James Monroe Inglehart. Carolee Carmello was in line behind me and also took a picture. Then I met up with Jo Ann for dinner at Red Lobster... It was yummy and I suck at being in control when eating out. Then cut our night a bit short because Karen got some very sad news about her Aunt so I went back to the evil cookie place to get her a pick me up then went home so she wouldn't be alone. On the way back though the sky was gorgeous!

Day 314/365 (May 27, 2015)

After work i headed home and then Met up with Dom for Broadway Bakes. This time it was Lena Hall and Rob McClure. I ended up chatting with Ally for a bit and lots of time with Laura, and I stayed until Kate Reinders and David Burtka were there. Rob is seriously such a sweet and generous person and really gets into the whole Broadway Bakes thing!

Eventually me and my flip flops went for a walk. I was walking downtown to meet up with someone but by the time i got to Madison Square Park they got canceled so I hobbled back home since that wasn't appropriate footwear and my foot was already in pain.

While at home the roomies and I watched 500 questions and were sad when Steve got the boot!

Fred sleeps all kinds of funny ways.

Day 313/365 (May 26, 2015)

Going to work after a 3 day weekend is always tough, but that I did! After work I headed up to have a Jenny appointment which didn't go as badly as I was expecting! SO naturally the wise thing to do was go home, put food away and head back to the evil cookie place for Broadway Bakes. This time it was Clay Thompson, Lesli Margherita, and Chris Rice. I ran into Laura and had them make a video for Jake... oops, haha! I also dropped off the cookie bribe fulfillment to Jersey Boys and some birthday cookies to Mr. Cookie.

Fred sleeps funny and Charlie supports Jake.

Then later on went for an almost 4 mile (mostly) run with Sasha and Liz.

Day 312/365 (May 25, 2015)

I had a lay morning, and spent part of it looking out the window with Fred. Then I got my act together and met up with Sasha and Karen at The Running Store where I ended up buying very expensive new sneakers but I am giving the running thing a try and they made my feet feel unlike they have ever felt before! Special thank to the awesome Tom who helped me. Then I met up with Holly and Anna and we had a picnic in the park. It was lovely! Ran into Penski there, then we went to Columbus Circle and they did some shopping. Also I bought the tiniest popcorn at Whole Foods called Pipcorn, and it was rosemary flavored and so freaking good!

Then we walked to the evil cookie place for Broadway Bakes for Laura Osnes and Corey Cott.

Found Charlie sitting on/in his folded down tub, if it fits it sits!

I also baked some peanut butter cookies for a bribe fulfillment.
