Day 331/365 (June 13, 2015)






Woke up earlier than I would have liked but what can ya do?! I tracked Sasha's 10K race and made an omelette for breakfast. Then I showered. When Sasha got back we started to watch another episode of Orange is the new black but we got a surprise when Ellyn brought Lola over very early! Good thing we were home. Needless to say we stopped watching it. After a bit I popped over to help Holly and Anna with Hedwig lotto, then rushed back home. Ellyn came back and we talked Lola's party. I am sad we will be missing it but glad I will be in NH with my family. I am still mating her cake though so I hope that it still tastes good the day of her party!

Then we had some fun with Lola and she worked on making a calendar for me. Then we tried very hard to convince her to not go with Sasha but failed, so Karen and I had a quiet evening. I fell asleep finally trying to watch the Game. Lola also played with the window markers and made herself as a mermaid in an underwater sea castle. Lola also toppled Sasha and Karen.

Fred is so cute.

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 329/365 (June 11, 2015)




Oh my gosh the morning was crazy! Ted had a bee in his bonnet or something but he kept asking me for different things like every 5 seconds so it was hard to put the information together with constant distractions. Then an old co-worker came in and it was nice to see him, but then I ran off for Softball.

I watched part of Curious Incident vs. Kinky Boots because I chatted with some familiar faces, then went over to watch the Les Miz vs. whoever they played game. Poor Penski wasn't feeling well so she wasn't playing so I got to chat with her which was nice, but OMG it was so hot, sweat was dripping down my legs where they were crossed and I was in the shade!

After the game ended I puttered in the park a bit waiting for the next game to start. Went to watch Davenport vs. I don't remember who. The girl from last week (Megan) was also there to watch so we chatted. The game was close and they had to have an extra inning before they thankfully won!

Then I went home and laid down because the heat was so overwhelming, I don't know how they all survived playing the heat!

Then i went out because there was a "Something Rotten" event at the Renaissance Hotel that was a complete sham/waste of my time. It was not a cast performance but the staff of the hotel performing the opening song with choreography and lip syncing. The good news was I found out I was seeing Something Rotten that night while there so I guess it wasn't too bad!

Got home again and showered then met up with Anna and Holly to kill some time before I met up with Neil to see Something Rotten. We were so close but I think of the front row seats A 103/104 are probably the best because of the shape of the stage. After seeing the show a second time I definitely do love it. so so much! I also finally had a moment of Christian Borle really does have incredible arms.

After the show Neil and I headed to Smith's Bar for a bit. Hadn't been in since it reopened. It was pretty nice until the very and because a live band started laying so it was hard to hear. All in all it was a lovely evening and I am so happy it worked out that way!

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 327/365 (June 9, 2015)




I got up early but couldn't decide what was best to wear for the weather so I had a slow morning and got in so much later than i meant to!

After work I jetted up to trader joes and jenny, then back home for a bit before heading to training. While at Jenny Signey said she noticed my arms were looking toned and all i could think was don't you see the flab? but the compliment was nice! Concerning training: Oh man it hurt! Barely made it home.

The rest of the night was pretty low key. Had some more yummy Shishito peppers and Charlie shows no care for poor Fred... "ima just step over you" he says.

Also Something Rotten really has the most brilliant advertising!

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 325/365 (June 7, 2015)















Woke up completely torn about what to do concerning Dennis. I went back an forth a bazillion times before deciding not to go out there. If i had known sooner I would have planned my weekend around it, le sigh!

I ended up going for a long walk up the west side highway along Hudson Park. It was lovely. Then I popped into Hope's for a while and we had a nice chat then I left with some of her incredible cookies!

One of the cookies she gave me was Finding Neverland so I decided to go take a picture of it by the marquee and on the way out i ran into Gabe Violet. It was nice to have a quick chat, then i went and took the picture, and also one in the Tony Awards Pop Up Shop since they were just down the street from me. I was calling it #cookiesontour

Helped Sasha with more flowers, then eventually Ben (not her brother, her former step dad) came over and we had a delicious avocado salad. I also made more shishito peppers! Karena nd I also drank some Rumchata/fireball. Finally the the Finding Neverland Cookie after the opening number if the Tony Awards. The broadcast was pretty good, I thought Alan and Kristen did a great job hosting, the in memorium tribute was beautiful and there were no sound issues! I am sad that Brian d'Arcy James and Something Rotten didn't win though!

Charlie got his claws clipped and I pretended to win an award with Sasha's presentation bouquet... sadly the best picture was the one she missed the tiara. Fred "sniffs" the flowers.
