The Everydayness of Stephanie

Cause I’m lame and I like to write about lame things

Catch Up! April 2, 2008

Psha Psha Psha……  I have a lot of random things to write about today.

I had a great day on Monday.  It was my darling DAVE’S 3-0 th birthday.  WOW!  That’s old, but I’ll be up there in 5 years.  Isn’t that crazy!  Well our day started off awesome!  Then we went to Fido.  I got my spuds mc-cheesy with a coffee and Dave had a bagel and a million dollar orange juice, oh and we shared a rockin PC Muffin.  Yummy!  After that we went downtown and walked around for a few hours, then went to Ru-Sans for all you can eat sushi buffet.  Yum!!!!  Then we went back downtown and walked around some more.  Oh and we went shopping at American Apparel, I bought a plain t-shirt and Dave got 3 shirts.  They look super great on him!  I’m happy he got to buy clothes because he always lets me instead of him so I’m just happy for him.  While walking around we went to a few bars and had a few beers.  Yes, we did have beers at 2 in the afternoon.  I really felt like maybe I am an alcoholic as I was drinking during the day AND not at work.  But it was a fun day.  We also went to Legends, which is pretty cool.  I love the way it looks and feels when you are inside.  What I didn’t like was that there weren’t any specials and they charged $3.75 per beer.  Whatever!  I’m going to Joes Crab Shack from now on, 2 for 1’s there all day everyday.  Heck ya!  We met Megan and Seth and went to dinner and then got ice cream!  It was the best Ice cream that I’ve had in quite a while, but the cone was icky!  I’ll just get it in a cup next time! :)   But I think that Dave had a great day for his birthday.  He was able to go wherever he wanted and to do whatever he wanted and that makes him happy, which in turn makes me happy!

So I was working at Express last night and I heard some dude tell his girlfriend that our jeans are for male-erexic men.  That phrase doesn’t even make sense; I can understand man-erexic but not male-erexic.  LAME!  AND it’s not like our pants are small, we carry up to a 38 inch waist so stop wearing your pants down to your ankles and you will be fine or go to Big and Tall, that’s why the made that store and it does have nice things (I used them for a fashion show in High School so I know they do).  I’m not being mean about big people, I understand that’s how you are and I used to be heavier too, but this guy was not, he just liked his pants to hang to his ankles.  So there you have MALE-EREXIC!  Use it everyday!  What a word!

So I’m a little sad because Creation Station, one of the local scrapbook stores in my area, will be closing soon.  They sent out an email.  It makes me a little sad.  I never bought anything there because they closed early and I’m not THAT into scrapbooking.  But I was hoping that I would be once I got back from the convention.  Sooo Boo!!!!!  They said in their email that they aren’t planning on a big sale…..yet as they are hoping that someone will want to buy the store and keep it going.  I’d love to do this.  I emailed Dave and told him but I didn’t get a response.  I’m assuming that means NO, which is understandable because he knows I’m not very creative.  But I would love to own my own business and to spend all day doing that.  That would be neat!  So if any of you feel like it, please send them an email wishing them happy thoughts and positive things.

A few more things and then I think I will be done for the day, I know it’s horrible how much I write, isn’t it.  But Dave is happy I put it here so instead of emailing him he can look when he wants.  HA!!!!!!!

Amanda and I had a fun day on Saturday.  We went out for coffee and then scrapbooked.  That was fun!  Went to the Frothy Monkey.  They have the best freaking coffee ever!  Please Please Please go there when you come to Nashville, I don’t think you will be disappointed, unless you buy a muffin, I’m iffy about those.  Anyways.. We leave tomorrow for our awesome scrapbooking weekend.  Hell YA!  We are heading to St Louis for our scrapbooking convention and it’s going to be so much fun.  We are staying at an awesome hotel, I think, and here are some cool amenities that it has, free breakfast with waffles and sausage and eggs, 3 free alcoholic beverages at night, workout room, free popcorn and soda from 3pm-10pm and a business center.  I’m just excited for the breakfast part!  Yay!

On a side note, I’m not sure how much I will be posting while I’m gone but hopefully I’ll be able to get on here for a little bit to post about the classes and all my other randomness.

Ok that is enough for now.  I’m going to head over to Walgreens to pick up my pictures for the trip!  Woo Hoo!!

Stephy :)

 

Monday Morning Catch Up… March 17, 2008

Had a fun weekend.

Friday night was great! Dave and I went out drinking with our friends! Had a blast thanks to my BFF Megan! HA!HA!HA!

Then Sat I went to work, Express, and worked till 2 and then shopped as it was a 45 % off weekend. I didn’t spend a whole lot there but I did get 3 t-shirts and a light-weight jacket. Then Dave and I went to the gym for like 30 minutes, not really a motivating workout day. And then we went to Opry Mills and went shopping! Woo! Hoo! I love shopping. We went to sushi too and that was super good. YUM! I bought a pair of Guess jeans, which fit AWESOME (!!!) and a pair of cute flats from Banana Republic for 9 bucks. YES! Oh and I got workout shoes from the NIKE outlet for 15 bucks from the kids section! Yes I’m cheap!


On Sunday we went to Michaels because I had a 50% off coupon and I bought the awesome Making Memories Trimmer that I’ve been wanting for the past week. It was the best deal that I could get and I need it for the convention so it worked out perfectly. I think it was meant to be! :) We also went to Zach and Joey’s (Sam and Zoes) and had coffee and lunch. It was the best. If you ever go there get the Tijuana Wrap, you will not be disappointed. It was great. We went to see Laurel cause she was working till 2 so we hung out and talked and drank coffee and then went to her house to play with the puppy, Walter. I now want a puppy more than anything. But I cant have one so I decided to carry my stuffed puppy from
FH Schwartz around and make puppy noises. HA! Dave was amused, cause I’m hilarious! God I’m full of myself. HA! Ummm…. What else did I do. Oh I ironed like a good wife. AND I made a bad ass pasta dinner. Thanks Giada De Laurentis. She is the bomb.com. Ya I said it and there is no denying it.

Ok enough bragging out my weekend. I’m back to work today. Yippee! Going to lunch with Megan after her interview and then to Dan McGuiness to party after work. YAY! That’s about it for now.

Oh here are my 365 pictures from this weekend. When we were at the Mills this weekend there was a cool Wrestlemania thing going on and I got a fake Randy Orton tattoo. So I felt it was only natural to take a picture of my tattoo with a picture of him.

Yesterday’s picture is of my new shoes while we were at Zach and Joeys. Kinda cool!

Going to work now.
