quick question.

Let me set the scene and you can judge the awkwardness on a level from 1-5. 5 being most awkward and 1 being not awkward at all.

Background:
I work in a building with two towers. I work in the south tower on the 7th floor. We have a girl's restroom that is for everyone that works on the 7th floor. I run into this girl about 27 years-old (blonde, really tall, works in shipping company next door) about every day. However, we have never spoken.

Scene:
I'm in the bathroom washing my hands and no one is in there. I open door to leave, and literally almost run into her. I then say (word vomit stikes again), "I feel like we are in here all the time together." She says, "huh?" because she was confused if I was talking to her or the Chinese woman who just walked in behind her. I said "I feel like we are always in the bathroom together" Now I know this isn't going well so I get red in the face. She looks at me, still confused, and goes, "oh really." I might be exaggerating the awkwardness but I don't think I'll be able to look her the eye because if I were here I would be refering to me as the "bathroom girl."

Ahhh just another day in my life.

on high alert.


Anyone else worried about the flu bug going around? I have ALOT of teacher friends and I think they would be on the front lines of the flu war. Is it bad yet? Let me know! I'm on high alert status. I can't get sick with the flu because when I get the flu, I GET THE FLU! I don't get sick very often but the flu is my Achilles heel (if you will). Stay healthy out there! love.

that's miss. webmd to you

Okay. I might be a one of those girls that jumps on WebMd anytime she doesn't feel good and then self-diagnoses herself with some rare disease or life-threatening issues. However, my mentality to medicine has always been mind over matter. I don't need medicine, I just need sleep, OJ, and some good old fashion vitamins. However, lately I've decided that some thing is wrong with me. I have the focus of a 3 year old, I get mid-afternoon headaches, and I'm exhausted pretty much from 3 p.m. on. That's not right. Right? I'm only 22, not 85. So what's a girl to do when she doesn't know what's wrong? Google it of course! 

Well I found an article on "energy zappers" and found five things that might contribute to my lack of energy & how I can fix it. Maybe these will help you too!  

1) Have breakfast...even if you don't feel hungry. 
2) Drink more water 
3) Cut back on TV and computer time after  p.m. - This one is important to me because I literally am on my computer until 15 minutes before I go to bed and that's the night I don't fall asleep to my TV! 
4) Give your pet her own separate sleeping space - oh wait, you mean to tell me that when I'm crunch in the corner of my queen sized bed because Madison is literally sleeping on top of me it could disrupt my sleep? 
5) Get your exercise - I need to do this because I am a lazyyyy girl.  

I'll commit to this & see if it makes a difference. Please let me know if you have any picker-ups for those mid-day slumps!

wishing & hoping.

Is that bad that i'm taking stuff home from work today in hopes of a "work from home" day tomorrow because of the ice?!

or

Is it good, because I'm just being a prepared little worker?!

Either way. This is the website I keep my eye on during weather like this.

love!

ps. where are the tri-life updates? all of you are slacking for sure!
