Day 81/365 (October 6, 2014)

After work I went to the gym for about an hour and kicked my own butt! I somehow managed to do 3 miles on the elliptical in 19 minutes and 43 seconds... a new persona best! I also hit the 2 mile mark at 13:40 which was impressive! Then I came home and lounged for a but and Fred curled up on me... thta is his head resting on my snuggied leg. Later on Charlie curled up next to me and when I went to pet him he grabbed onto my hand and held it tight... it was so cute.

Then I got cleaned up and headed to meet Jo Ann at Red Lobster for our monthly dinner/catch-up friend date. I was proud of myself for not eating the biscuits.... it was difficult but I did it! I just got a garden salad, greens beans, and broccoli! Yum!!!!

Day 78/365 (October 3, 2014)

Today after my Jenny appointment I headed out to New Rochelle for a bit to get some resume help from Paula. While there I got some good Penny time and also went out to lunch with her and Dennis. He wanted to go to Smash Burger... I was proud of myself for only getting a salad but it was rough!

Then I headed back home so I could get Karen's birthday cake layers made (chai flavored) before heading out to Marty and Marissa's movie night. I really don't like Little Shop of Horrors (the movie) but its fun to watch movies there!

Day 365/365 (August 18, 2009)

WE HAS COMPLETION!!!!

It was a roller coaster of a day for me, kinda fitting since i saw next to normal i guess!

the day "began" with my attempting to get some sleep before rushing. i got about an hour before i woke up all alert and stuff. BAD NEWS instead of going right then i tried my best to pass time and finally got to rush at 4 which is when i was planning and had refused getting there any earlier. yea i was 5th in line! PISSED OFF!!!! i called sasha and finally she came down and joined and we were able to get the last set of front row orchestra seats thankfully. lack of sleep isnt good for tamra but the time passed we made friends i made a stop talking drunky mcwasted acquaintance (though his friend that had been with him earlier was most awesome). i took a little nap towards the end at one point and all was good.

got back to sasha's and watched a tiny bit of big brother after dark before getting ready and heading to my crumbs interview. the interview went well and then back to sasha's. it was nappy time. i basically only ended up getting about an hour of sleep before i was woken up by a phone call. (before i fell asleep though fred came over and nuzzled with me for a while and although it made me sneezy it made me really happy.) and pip even slept on me at one point during the day. Then i got in a long 45 minute phone call with apple because all of a sudden my phone was having some serious problems with syncing my music that i purchased and i have a temporary fix at the moment but it needs to become a temporary one so i will likely battle it out with them tomorrow.

anywho so this phone call caused me such incredible stress and part of it meant i had to call my mm which resulted in more stress and tears and well i just do not handle that well so i shoved my emotions down my throat and have been doing my best to ignore them. well sasha and i hung some more and she worked and then we gots ready to go. we went over to blockheads and met our theatre buddies there and had a yummy and delightful dinner. then to the theatre we went and the overpowering AC was most welcomed!

the show was unbelievably good and definitely worth the time spent rushing. i cant believe it had been over a month since i had seen it and am impressed with my self control (i guess the show is rubbing off on me as far as obsessiveness is concerned, j/k but lol).

after i began taking my final 365 pictures with my special 365 project. basically i took every picture that i posted in my blog and it is all on one sheet of paper with a 365 on it. and the first one was taken with sasha who is the highest tagged human! then i took one with kyle dean who seemed to enjoy my collage work since he was the first 365 picture and i hadnt intended it to happen full circle but i loved that it had. and while i was chatting with KDM chylar (pronounced skylar, tho i feel i missed a letter in there from when he told us how it was spelled.) also i dont usually "geek" out about interesting next to normal things however there were three moments this evening that had me in serious LIH (laughing in head). during why stay at one point when alice sang why stay she drew a question mark in the air and well i just found it hilarious because it was so not a her seeming thing to do and i do that all the time. also when she was taking the pills out of the medicine cabinet you could hear that some of them fell whilst she was doing so. ( i am sure others could see but not from our beautiful front row). the third was during better than before bobby accidentally messed up a lyric and instead of saying you've got it DI hooray, he said youve got it yay hooray, so then a second later when jenn sng that they both looked at each other and turned giggling as they did what they had to and when they turned back around they were still smiling and although it isnt supposed to be all giggly like that it was kind of a nice shared father daughter moment so i enjoyed that. and in general any time i see tears from people onstage i am just floored and there were some tears by kyle dean, bobby, and alice... good times! (I know i am crazy)

then sasha and i headed back and saw some lightening, by the time we got inside it was hardcore lightening and fierce rain so sasha, marty, and myself ran up to the roof to look at the sky and it was so rainy and hard and there was one especially breathtaking bolt that illuminated the whole sky and was positioned just right that we got a clear view of its bolitness!!!! then we came downstairs and watched the most oh snapish episode of big brother and i got a text from krysta saying the super had seen emma hanging around so he will keep an extra special look out for her and let us know as soon as he sees her. i hope she was okay during the storm because i miss her so very much. i also took a picture with marty and then this one with pip and fred because they are all important people in my life/blog and i was fortunate to see them today. i personally love how pip looks like he was flying and fred was nice enough to stop licking himself for a second to look at the camera for the picture!

i added this so you can see it close up if you want :D (can you find the mistake?)

as far as things go i doubt i will do a photo every day but i will try to post an entry everyday we will see how that goes and i will probably create a new blog for that since this one has run its course and i am proud of myself for keeping it up!

Day 358/365 (August 11, 2009)

i dont remember the first parts of the day but i know i went to apple to drop off my computer for them to fix it. it was supposed to be a quick drop but instead it was a i had to wait twenty minutes to drop it off drop. Then i headed over to Hair Lotto to help Morgan K. with it since he tweeted asking for help. Sadly we all lost for him and everyone else i knew there that i randomly bumped into. After sasha and i got some subway for dinner and went back to her place.

we watched tv and hung out and eventually marty came home and we continued doing the same, i think this was the night we watched the emperor's new groove or i should say they watched it since i was busy applying to jobs. but the parts i paid attention to were quite funny!

then i headed over to The Irish Rogue for Shoshana's birthday party and i was a little worried at first since i knew the only person i was going to know there was actually Shoshana and contrary to what people might think i am actually quite shy and not always up to breaking the ice to make nice nice with new people and become their friends. well i was proud of myself because i forced myself to become a chatty person and had a most fabulous night and the shirley temples at place were laced with so much grenadine it made my taste buds happy! it was hot inside because the AC wasnt really working but that didnt stop us from having fun and taking about a bazillion pictures, true stalkerazzi! eventually we left and spent 40 + minutes just talking on the corner of 42nd and 7th ave until we finally went home. i had forgotten to take a picture until about 11:40 that night and it was so dark in there which isnt good for my iphone camera so this was the best i could do with the use of using a candle for light which was our second candle since i breathed on the first one to blow it out and we had to use all the napkins to hold the candle because it was very hot!

Day 350/365 (August 3, 2009)

since i had gone to bed so late the night before i woke up a little later than planned but still on the early side. i couldnt bring myself to get out of bed though so for about an hour i stayed there playing on my phone and being attentive to emma and pip. eventually i did get out of bed and my right ankle hurt to walk on but luckily that only lasted like an hour or so. no clue why that had happened though!

any way span some time and i decided i was going to a reading of a musical at York Theater... it was called 999 B.C. the people in it were good and the music was gone but the show and actual songs not so much. i kinda just wanted it to end, but at least the actors were good and that made the whole thing bareable. the woman next to me had fallen asleep long before the show had even started and only woke up when people were clapping.  with the exception of like 3 people everyone in the room was old and graying...  always awkward but eh whatevs. Todd was in it and that was the reason i had decided to go see it. afterwards i walked from york (on 54th and lex) to the 2/3 on 72nd... it was a lovely walk and i bought some yummy fruit. also on my walk to 72nd st i passed (as always) this weird bench with the creepy statue on it. i read who he was once before but i never remember it and all i know is whenever i walk by it it always creeps me out because i am like why is there a guy sitting on a bench so still when it is dark out then i remember it is the statue but still i always get the hebejebes for a split second!

now i am home and watching the episode of The Closer that Michael Arden is on and WHOA BABY! his acting in it is absolutely phenomenal! just wow! and when he speaks in french (as when any one does) my heart was melting a little but here is the kicker despite my lack of retaining french after taking it for so many years i was actually able to translate most of what he was saying and i feel quite proud of myself!

ps i cant believe i only have 15 days left for this to be a completed project! wow just wow! with any luck i will continue updating every day as i have been pretty much for the last month or so with like 1 or 2 exceptions!

Day 277/365 (May 22, 2009)

the day was good... i woke up, showered, went to TARGET!!!! i didnt spend too much time there but the time spent was glorious, even if i couldnt get the flip-flops in the size i needed. later paula and i began our project of hanging up different pictures. With the exception of these last four it was pretty simple and easy... we just had to find the right spot for them. these however required much thought and then planning... but i busted out some awesome math and logical skills and we hung these bad boys! they dont look it from the angle of this picture but they are spaced evenly and the two larger ones ended up being the same level! i was quite proud :D

i even got to drive a bit and took a little driving tour of CNR, and other parts of new rochelle, and i never needed to look up directions to get from the different places!
