Oh thank goodness that it is Friday!! I have said it before and I will say it again....I live for the weekends. After work I came home and changed before going out to happy hour with Carla and Amy. We went to Enterprise Fish Company and had a great time (they have a great happy hour!). After being downtown for a bit Carla and I headed out and Amy went out with Anthony. Somehow Carla and I ended up at a friends house to play beer pong. We had such a fun time!!

I woke up this morning feeling terrible...I had a horrible stomachache and chills. Michael left my house to go to work and I called in sick to work. I ended up going back to sleep for a couple hours and woke up around 11am. I ate some breakfast and went back to bed...I don't know why but I could not get out of bed. I spent most of the day in bed napping or watching TV. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Work was good today, I was a lot more busy than I have been After work I headed home and made some dinner and hung out with the roomies. After dinner we decided to get dressed up and go to Red's Wine Bar for a drink. I cannot believe how that place has changed!! It is definitely not a coffee shop anymore!! We got home around 10pm and then Michael came over to spend the night. It was nice to mix things up and go out for an hour or so during the week.

Work, work, work...I want you to be over already. After work I came home and made dinner...I have been trying to eat at home more. I wanted to make sure I was home to watch Dancing with the Stars - I have become obsessed with this show this season! I still can't believe that Jake got voted off!! After the show ended I went over to Michael's house to spend some time with him and to sleep over.

Back to work today....was not in the mood to work so I actually didn't do much work at all. After work I headed home for a little R&R. I ended up watching Dancing with the Stars with the roomies over a glass of wine. Nothing like a nice relaxing night at home.

I woke up this morning feeling so much better....I always love a good night sleep. Michael and I decided to go out for Sunday brunch and went to Anderson's Danish Bakery which was delicious! After breakfast we parted ways for the day and he went off to do his own thing. I came home and hung out with Carla and Amy for awhile. I decided to stay in and get some stuff done like cleaning my room. It was so dirty and needed to be dusted, vacuumed and organized. Spent the rest of the day hanging around the house and being lazy. I did end up going over to Michael's later in the evening and spending the night. I just love snuggling with him before I go to bed.

Oh I just love the weekends!! Seriously...I do!! I came home to have breakfast and get ready and ended up hanging with the roomies till almost 1pm! We like to have a late breakfast :) Once we got up and out of the house we decided to do a little shopping downtown and then stopped by Santa Barbara Winey for a wine tasting! They offer $5 tastings which is an amazing deal!! After wine tasting we went out to dinner for Thai food which was really yummy! After dinner we came home and saged Brian's room....we are trying to rid it of evil spirits! I started to get a really bad headache at this point which lead to a stomach ache. Michael was such a good boyfriend and decided to come over, take care of me and spend the night.

After work I decided to go fishing with Michael. It has been such a long time since I have gone and I wanted to spend time with him. I didn't stay for long....just over an hour or so. It was so beautiful outside so it was nice to just relax and enjoy the view. I went home to have dinner since it was getting dark and I don't like being out at the lake past sundown. Once Michael got home I went back over to his house to spend the night since it is finally the weekend!! Yay!!

Back to work after a day off...I actually had a lot of emails to catch up on! I had over 100 emails waiting for me...after missing one day!! After work I came home because we were going to show Brian's room and interview potential roommates. We had three people come over and two of them were no's and one was a maybe. I really hope we can find that one person who just fits in. Let the search continue.

I took the day off from work today. I had some stuff that I needed to do down near LA.
When I got home I hung out with the girls and then headed over to Michael's to spend the night. Have you ever watched Chelsea Lately? She is sooo funny!! I love her...always a good way to end the night.

Tuesday, April 20, 2010


Just another busy day at work! I don't mind when it is busy because it makes time go by faster but I just hate when it gets crazy busy like this morning. Millie and I did a site inspection at 9am in the rain!! It went good but I was pretty soaked by the time that I got back to my desk. After work I came home, had dinner and chilled. The last couple of weeks have been so crazy that I just want to stay home and not really do anything. I watched the Dancing with the Stars results and watched Kate get kicked off...it was about time! After the show ended Michael came over and spent the night...it had been awhile since he had come over.

Monday, April 19, 2010


Oh this is going to be an interesting week. My boss has been out of town for two weeks and today is her first day back...I have a feeling that I am going to be pretty darn busy all week. After work I came home and made dinner and got in PJ's...nothing like being lazy after work. I hung out with the roommates and watched Dancing with the Stars - my new Monday routine. Sometimes lazy days are the best!

Ugh...woke up with a little hang over this morning...I can't let that stop me because I have to drive up to SLO to meet Teri and Brenda for tattoos! All three of us are getting something :) I decided that I needed to go first because I was so nervous and I am glad that I did. Our tattoo artist Jake was amazing and he did such a good job! I love my tattoo!! It reads...there are things known and there are things unknown and in between are the doors - it is a quote by the late and great Jim Morrison. After tattoos Teri and I hung out for a bit...went to Morro Bay and then headed back to Avila to check out Avila Farms. It was so fun...they even have a petting zoo! After that we went to CPK for dinner and then I made the drive home. It has been such a crazy weekend but I had a great time.

Today is the official start to CarlaFest!!! It is Carla's birthday weekend and we are going to have a good time! Carla, Amy, Anthony and I decided to go wine tasting....we started out at Santa Barbara Winery then went to Oreana Winery and ended at Kalyra Winery. We had such a great time! After all the wine tasting we went to Union Ale for beer and lots and lots of yummy snacks. However we were not done drinking....so we went to Enterprise Fish Company for more wine and then met up with another friend of Carla's. The night was ALMOST over but we had to stop at Joe's before going home :) Once we got home we surprised Carla with cake and presents! We ended up having a great day!

Friday, April 16, 2010


Yay it's Friday!!! I woke up this morning at Michael's house...I ended up staying over there after we talked about everything. I am feeling so much better about things and I just want everything to be normal again. Work was good but it was a long week and I can't wait for this weekend! After work I came home and hung out with Amy and Carla. We were going to get dressed up and go downtown but then decided to drink at home. We made some margaritas however quickly ran out of tequila! We made a emergency trip to Trader Joes to get some more right before they closed. YAY for margaritas!!

Today was the first day that I knew everything was going to be okay. Michael and I started talking over email for the first time in almost a week...it was such a relief to hear from him. After work I came home and cleaned up the house some. We ended up having a couple people over to look at Brian's room. No look finding anyone on Craigslist just yet but we will continue the search. After all that I went over to Michael's house to talk about things...and everything is thankfully going to work out.

I had to get to work at 7:30am this morning!! We were hosting a big meeting and I had to be there to make sure everything was perfect. Since I got there so early I was able to leave at 3:30pm. I decided that I needed some change in my life so I got my hair cut and colored...I am now a red head! I LOVE my new hair color and my hair stylist is amazing. After getting that done I met up with Carla and Amy and we went to the SB Young Professionals meeting. We got the time wrong and ended up getting there at the end but it was good to have an idea of what to expect next time. After sticking around for about an hour we went to dinner. We went to Opal and I had never been there before. The food there was sooo good and I can't wait to go back.

Tuesday, April 13, 2010


Work was okay today...just tried to not think about things. Every time I think about Michael I get upset and start crying so the best thing for me to do it just keep busy. After work today I went over to my grandma's house and went to dinner with her and Dan. They were so nice and took me to Stella Mare's!! It is a French restaurant and it is AMAZING! If you are every looking for a nice restaurant I would recommend going there. After dinner we went back to their house and watched the result show for Dancing with the Stars. It was a good night but I still ended up crying myself to sleep...

Today was basically my first day back to work since Thursday. I had a bunch of catching up to do so I was able to keep busy and keep my mind off of other things. After work I went to Whole Foods and got some natural sleep pills because I am having problems sleeping. There are times when I cant fall asleep till 2am and then I need to be up by 7:30am to get ready for work. Today was also my first day home since the Friday incident with M. It was hard...I cried all evening. Teri was a doll and checked in on me and then I watched Dancing with the Stars. After the show I took the Deep Sleep sleeping pills and thank god they worked like a charm! Time for bed!

Last night was crazy...Bekki, Kyle and I were in Huntington Beach till 3am and did not get home till after 5am today! Since I have not been sleeping well I woke up around 8:30am but was thankfully able to fall asleep for a few more hours. I met up with Christy at 12:45pm today and we headed down to Oxnard for a Walmart Adventure. When we got there it was SO busy but we needed to get some shopping done. I love that everything I need there is so reasonably priced! After we got home I spent some time with my roommates and I filled them in on my whole weekend. This weekend was not how I planned and came very unexpected....
I am VERY lucky to have wonderful friends who have been so great. I just wish everything was back to normal...

Saturday, April 10, 2010


I woke up this morning in tears and I wish yesterday was all a dream.....
Everything that happened yesterday was so surreal... the whole Michael issue..the car accident...everything...I can't even talk about it.
To get my mind off of things Bekki invited me to go to Huntington Beach with her and Kyle tonight. Our good friend Mike and his band were going to be playing a show there. We made the two and a half hour drive and ended up having a great time. It has been really important to surround myself with good friends....

Today my world as I know it was turned upside down. All I am going to stay is that I want the best for my relationship and I hope that everything is going to be okay.

I have been having such a good day at work this week...nice and quiet! After work I came home and hung out with Amy and Carla. We ended up sitting around the kitchen and drinking a bunch of wine. Later on in the evening Michael came over and watched the Real Housewives with us. Nothing like a nice relaxing evening...

Wednesday, April 7, 2010


Carla and I got up early today and went to a pilates class at 7am! What a great way to start the day...I went to work feeling great however I was not looking forward to this afternoon. After work I came home and Amy, Carla and I decided to go on a walk around the neighborhood. After our walk we had a house meeting... Amy, Carla, Brian and I sat down and discussed some of the issues we have been having, and it looks like Brian is going to be moving out and we are going to look for a new roommate at the end of the month...

Tuesday, April 6, 2010


Oh I love days when work is not stressful! I don't get many of those but this week seems to be going pretty smooth. After work I came home, had some dinner and spent some time with Amy. After Carla got home we decided to go on a walk around the neighborhood. We are all trying to make an effort to exercise more so we walked about a mile. It was good to get out of the house for a bit and enjoy the nice weather that we have been having.

Monday, April 5, 2010


Back to work...I am hoping that this is going to be a nice mellow week. Today went pretty well...I got some stuff marked off my to do list and my email inbox is getting smaller so thats good! After work I met up with Michael and worked out at my work gym for an hour or so. I am trying to get in the habit of exercising since I need to loose some weight by June. I did two miles today and I am going to try hard to keep up with working out! After that Michael and I went home and made dinner then watched Dancing with the Stars. Oh my god...WHY is Kate Gosselin still on that show?? Did anyone else watch it....it was SOOOO bad. Everyone should Google the Kate Gosselin paparazzi dance and just laugh.

HAPPY EASTER!! I had a great morning and woke up to such a wonderful day. My mom, dad & I went over to Dan's house for Easter lunch and my grandma, aunt, uncle and cousins were all there too. I got to see Dan's house for the first time and it is SOOO beautiful...I wish I could live there! We had a bbq and then went to the pool so the kids could swim. It was a nice mellow relaxing day and I had a lot of fun!

Saturday, April 3, 2010


SOOO happy that it is Saturday...I have been looking towards today since the beginning of the week. I ended up spending the night at Michael's last night and then I came home and had breakfast with Carla and Amy. After breakfast I got ready and headed over to my moms house. My grandma, mom and I went over to my aunts house for my cousins Gretchen's bridal shower. I can't believe that she is getting married in August! I am so happy for her and Kamil and I wish them all the best. It was so nice to see everyone and I finally got to meet little Alexandra (my new baby cousin).

Friday, April 2, 2010


Ughhh I hate work so much right now!!! I just want to be all caught up and have one day where I don't have anything to worry about. I am so thankful that today is Friday and the work week is done. I hope that I will be able to get caught up in the next couple of weeks. After work I met up with Michael for a bit and went to Lake Los Caneros where he did a little fishing. It got super windy so we ended up going home and ordering a pizza. Nothing like sitting in bed, watching tv and relaxing...this was very needed.

I don't even know where to start. I had one of the worst days of work ever today....I can't even begin to describe my stress level. From the moment I walked into the office till the time I left I was so swamped with work. Lets just say I ended up going outside and crying at one point. The worst part is that I know tomorrow is going to be bad too...
