meow

things have been busy busy.  it's always way more difficult to update when things are busy.  anywho, brittany and family came to visit and it was awesome.  we had lots of fun going to disneyland and having adventures.

laura is back from florida.  YAY.  FRIEND.  i don't know that a whole lot more than that matters.

things happen in life.  and they make you realize how lucky you are.  NO EXPLANATION.  figure it out yourself.

i ate umami burger tonight and it was delicious and i'm happy.  my burger had bacon nuggets and it was fabulous.  speaking of fabulous, it's almost time for ru paul's drag race to come back.. BOOM. 

my feet are all blistery and terrible from trying to break in shoes while doing pretend tours around disneyland.  that doesn't seem like real life but it is.  get out my face, yo.

LAURA IS BACK.

today i completed day 1 of my 7 day stretch at work.  i stopped working in attractions over a year ago so i am no longer used to working stretches that are longer than 5 days.  perspective, amirite?  anyway day 1 is done and i'm ready to throw in the towel.  probably check in with me on day 7 to make sure i haven't murdered anyone.

monday i start my train the trainer program for traditions.  i am really ridiculously excited but also already totally exhausted.

22 days until i go to hawaii.  23 days until my birthday.

BIRTHDAY.  i'm going to be 3-1.  31.  in my thirties.  thirty something.  i was super prepared for turning 30 because i had been saying i was 30 for years.  i never prepared myself for what happens after 30 and i'm kind of freaking out.

all of friends was released on netflix yesterday.  what if that is the highlight of 2015?!?  gah.  lets all make this year awesome so that's not true.

- being healthy, happy and extraordinarily lucky
