i feel icky

i feel ickyyyy oh so ickyyy i feel ickyy and stuffy and grosssss.

[sung to the tune of i feel pretty from anger management]

my allergies have decided to explode this week which has resulted in a yucky feeling me. it started out last friday when i felt a little funny and had a headache. since then every morning that i wake up (which is every morning :P) i feel progressively worse. it's wonderful!... not. i won't go into details of anything but basically it feels like someone has put wine corks in all of my airways and ears and then stuffed cotton balls in. it's a really great feeling that your head is going to explode. 

in non-gross news, i've been enjoying spring break week one here in rochester. we technically have finals this week but my artistic lifestyle just doesn't believe in those things so i get to relax. for all art classes we had "finals" last week which consisted of final projects and an in class critique. i've just been hanging around mostly, i'm currently working on a flash movie but it's teaching myself how to use it and making it at the same time so i can't promise any spectacular results. yesterday i ended up going to the gym at 8 in the morning. it was so cool to be working out and see a blizzard completely surrounding the building.. cools ya down :) after the gym i went out to lunch with dave and ashley before going to work. ended up working 2 hours longer than i thought because of all of the mail coming in but thats okay it means i dont have to go in today. yesterday after work ashley and i decided to go out to dinner to red robin! and see twilight at the dollar movie theater :) 

We've Got Ourselves a Burrito Bowl Virgin!

Last week Alison, Megan and I went to Red Robin for dinner except we were so full from dinner that we had no room for milkshakes (which happen to be a red robin special) so we decided to come back tonight just for milkshakes to ensure empty tummies.



Afterwards Alison and Megan got burritos from Chipotle (I came home to eat with my family instead). But we did sit down at a table for 5 minutes so that Alison and I could check another table off of our list-- I think we only have 3 left!

Freckled Lemonade

Had a doctors appointment yesterday morning to have another mole removed. This will be number four. For the past 3 procedures I've asked to watch the entire thing because for some reason I got a kick out of someone shoving a needle in my head or leg.. except this time even the thought of the needle grossed me out so I didn't watch. I do however have 3 lovely stitches in my stomach.  Aside from the feeling like someone was repeatedly stabbing me in the stomach with a knife, everything is just fine. I think I may have had a minor allergic reaction to the bandaid as well. Go figure. 

Went out to Red Robin last night for dinner with Alison and Megan. Unfortunately I forgot my camera so I have no pictures of that. We did have some tasty drinks.. no milkshakes this time (had to save something for next week ;) Alison's getting her wisdom teeth out this morning so we decided that we'd have a "last supper" before she's confined to mushy foods. Did some painting this morning. My mom finished the ceiling and trim the past two days so today's project is actually putting paint on the walls. I'm leaving mid-afternoon to go visit Alison and bring her a smoothie and heating pad. I believe I have night duty to make sure she takes her pain meds every four hours and put ice on her face or otherwise we'd be dealing with a very grumpy Alison :)  (I think for Alison's sake I'll refrain from taking pictures of her in her chipmunk-like state)
