girls night out

yesterday bf sat with me while i got a pedicure*
we ate icecream and read cosmo
sometimes boyfriend is more like a girlfriend and i love it**

*i won't say whether or not he had his first pedi- i promised
**until he confesses to loving the 'percussion' mode on the massage chair because it makes everyones boobs shake out of control

baggu

i have a closet full of canvas totes.. seems to disregard the point of using canvas vs plastic but whatever.. they all come in handy at one time or another.
im thinking of adding another to my collection. but this would be like a daily use bag.. the baggu bag.. i love how simple it is.. and not paying moop prices for another canvas bag *
i just have to figure out a color..
im leaning towards plain canvas. obv.


*though i love their bags and will probably end up buying one

bedside

need some help picking out bedside tables..
leaning towards one or two even though three seems a little more legit



sad saturday

after a very tough week of visits to the vet and test after test after medicine after medicine, Brodie passed away Saturday night. Both our vet and the dr at the emergency clinic were only able to figure out that it was 'some oddball cancer'.. bf and i were curled up on the floor with him when it happened..

hungry?

i never know what to have for dinner.. boyfriend and i are the worst deciders ever.. we don't eat at home often because we never know what to make!
all of my problems are solved... this is amazing!

we're in

done.. sort of.

the actual moving in went great.. my brother and boyfriend got it all done by the time i returned the zipcar and rode the scooter back over.. i unpacked everything in the first two days (the rain helped).. we ordered some new furniture to arrive friday.. washer dryer should be installed today or tomorrow.. internet went in yesterday (can't get our airport to work so im sitting on the floor next to the modem as i type this)

one major party foul.. brodie collapsed on floor 3 of our 4 floor walk up.. turns out he is 'very very sick' (as the dr wrote in his report) at this point we're not totally sure what it is.. treating for a severe case of worms and hoping for improvements in the next two weeks or he'll have to be hospitalized (at which time this girl will be sitting down with the boyfriend to see just how far we take it.. i've always been of the mindset that i can buy a fancy new dog for 2k.. we're halfway there..)

fuck.

earth day

im not so selfish as to think my anniversary trumps earth day... rather than napping in my wedding dress all afternoon i should've really been connecting with this thing called earth.. or having a rad earth day party...
there's always next year...

one

one year down..
i'll be in my dress at some point today..

i did it

im a good little runner.. yesterday was my first race and i had my best mile average ever..
just when i wanted to start walking towards the end the people who had already finished the race had started lining up to cheer people on and i realized something,
no one cheers for walkers....

baby mama race in two weeks

lbd

i may not have mentioned this before but my highschool reunion is coming up..
the really superficial one where you hope everyone got fat.. 10 year.
so im starting to think about what to wear..
i generally don't care for much of what emily puts together (don't get me wrong, i'm all about her food posts) but she tweeted this the other day and i was sort of into it.. not totally sold on the back but may go with something along these lines..
that is unless i can find a cocktail-y version of carrie mulligan's oscar dress... of course.
