Dating and Shoe shopping!

Monday I decided it was time for me to get back into the dating pool.  I met a nice guy on craigslist and we decided to get together for dinner.  We met up at Fat Head's in North Olmstead.

While the food was good, and the guy was nice, there wasn't enough there to warrant a second date.  C'est la vie! 

The next day was a lot more productive!  I woke up later, got ready and headed off to the southpark mall

Usually if I'm going to a mall (which honestly isn't very often), I would go to the great northern mall, but I was on a mission to find the perfect shoes!  Since I work at a fancy law firm I am expected to wear fancy shoes.  I dislike uncomfortable shoes, so what's left?  CROCS!!!!  Southpark mall had the closest crocs store, so off I went. 


Yes, crocs makes fancy lady shoes.  After browsing around for a bit I found and fell in love with these ladies:

While I was there I noticed that the mall had a movie theater.  "Meh," I thought.  "Why not?"  It was a toss up between seeing hotel transylvania, or pitch perfect.  I figured since it was the middle of a tuesday, there would be a bunch of moms + thier kids at hotel transylvania, so I picked Pitch Perfect.  Poor pick :(


I went for the music, so I shouldn't have been as disappointed with the story line as I was.  The story was lacking, and the music was sporadic at best.  I expected better of you pitch perfect.  My overall recommendation would be to not waste your time.

After the movie, I remembered I wanted to go get something from GNC to boost my metabolism. The lady in the store recommended the GNC Women's Ultra Mega Active.  So I bought me 2 boxes of it and have been taking the pills for 2 days now.

So far it seems ok.  The only problem is there are a ton of pills.  I take all of them except 1 multivitamin and 1 energy pill (which I take in the afternoon). 


The only problem is the neon yellow pee, which the GNC forum said was normal.....

The rest of the day was spent grocery shopping, cooking and doing laundry.  Overall a great and productive weekend!

Single Again, but Busy as Ever!

After about a month of dating Marlon and I broke up.  Sad, right?  I had made him an awesome blanket




And pretty sweet card (get it?  Sweet?! HA!)



But he kept canceling our dates.  When I realized he wasn’t really into this relationship, I decided to cut my losses and break up.  I’ve had a relationship where I stayed when he really wasn’t that into me.  I’d rather not waste my time.

So, back to being single!

Last weekend was super busy.  I had planned to go to amanda’s baby shower, but completely overslept.  After that was cookies at Mitch and Dom’s house, but sadly, mitch was sick, so I just stayed home and relaxed all day.

Monday, I had an eye appointment in the morning (200 bucks for contacts?!  Ouch), then grocery shopping.  After I put all of my groceries away, it was off to my first dental exam at Advanced Dental Care They were AH-MAZING!  They gave me a water bottle, and chapstick just for coming in.  Each room had a TV in it, so you could watch whatever while getting your teeth cleaned.  The first visit exam/x-rays are free of charge (although they would have been with insurance anyway), so if anyone is looking for a GREAT dental experience check these guys out!


Tuesday was a bit more laid back.  I went to see looper.  It had got really good reviews, so I had high expectations for it.  It was good, but not great.  I don’t think I’d go see it again, but, it was worth seeing once.


After the movie I want to get my hair cut at Charles Scott  because I had a 10 dollar off coupon.




I think it turned out cute!  Today I had a general check up with my doctor, but nothing special to announce, other than I LOVE this Doctor as much as I loved my dentist.  No TV’s in the rooms, but GREAT service.  The doctor really listened to my questions and concerns.  He said my bp was a bit high, but if I lose weight that should remedy it…so back to atkins for me!

And that's it!  Hopefully next week will be a lot slower.  I'm only 1 level away from getting my main World of warcraft character to end level, so that will be my goal next week
