sunday, sunday, sunday

this is my solution to blogging at work when the administration has deemed blogger a restricted site. i will email myself my blog, then copy and paste it to my blog when i get home...or to a place that allows me to access it.

so, its sunday. i am at work. but today is not just any ordinary sunday at the pharmacy. it is my LAST weekend that i am working here. again, with the countdowns. i know, i need to stop that crap, and just enjoy the moment that i am in. but, alas, that is just me. please take me for who i am. i am sort of giddy with that "oh my god, this is really happening feeling". and it was just that much easier to get up at the ass crack of dawn this morning. it was pitch black when i got out of bed at 5am. i had this whole cute capri summery outfit picked out to wear, but opted for my usual work uniform of brown courds and a plain shirt with a hoodie. oh well, i can be cute tomorrow.

speaking of cute clothes, i have been trying to shop, in the little free time that i have, for our move to new zealand. i have not been very successful in the pants department. curse my short genes! however, i have been pretty good about getting some nice tops. mike and i went to tilly's last weekend, and i saw some stuff that i thought was cute, but of course, nothing in my size. so, being the genius that i am, i went online to see what they had there...and score for me! they had so much more stuff online. so, i went on a mini shopping spree, and as an added bonus there was free shipping on purchases $89 or more. the loot i got: 1 cute sundress, 1 cute halter tank top, 2 cute babydoll-ish tops, 1 cute pair of flip flops. note the adjective CUTE! and i think mike was surprised when i wore one of the tops on friday. he gave me a weird smirk and look before he commented about my shirt looking nice. i thought he was smirking b/c he didn't like it, and i told him he was being mean to me, and that if that was the reaction i get, then i won't dress nice anymore. so...there!

i went to the dentist on thursday. happy to report that i have no cavities. well, i had a toothbrush abrasion, which is technically a cavity, but it had no decay. so, dr. mike fixed that up for me. and told me to stop brushing so hard. anyhoo, dr. mike is an old friend of mine. and he is so incredibly generous and awesome. he is my friend, who took care of my kittybutt while i was in pharmacy school. and that fat little kitty loved him, probably more than me. he let her go out and chase mice and climb on the counters. and he is so nice to me too. i have been his charity case from the get go, when i didn't have insurance in school, or when i first went to a shitty dentist who told me i needed thousands of dollars of work done. dr. mike saved the day...and my mouth. he is doing really well. he is looking spiffy, and healthy. he is still toothpick thin, but he seemed so much happier than the last few times i saw him. he was chatty, funny, and chipper. i am glad that he is happy and healthy. i was worried there for a bit. i am hoping to see him next week at my birthday dinner.

i also went to my eye doctor on friday. i got the all clear on my progress. my eyes look great, and the dryness (which i never really felt) is much better. good thing, b/c i have been less than diligent on using those eyedrops 3-4 times a day. now i am on an as needed regimen. the doctor wanted to see me one more time at the year mark to make sure everything was still good, but i dropped the bomb on him that i was moving really far away. he said that was fine, just have a check up next april...otherwise, see ya! also, i decided that he is an arrogant prick. but i guess i would be if i was rolling in the dough. i mean, every patient pays at least 3K out of pocket for lasik. and i shelled out even more...but, i can see wonderfully, and mike can sport those non-scratch resistant shades!

i realize at this point that phil is not going to be happy with all this text! so sorry!

okay...there are only 39 more days left here in the united states. weird. not sure when it is really gonna kick in. wonder how sad i will be and when? i am thinking that since we are going to be on vacation for the first part of our trip, i won't have time to be homesick for a couple months. i am sure we will find out soon enough!
