Awkward & Awesome

awkward

* getting called daphne on the phone. well, it's not really awkward per se, but mostly funny. well, at least it's a new one

* walking past some windows after dropping off a fedex package and seeing a guy starting at me. yes at least i smiled back. least i could do is remind him of how awkward he was.

* going to see my doctor yesterday and he was mentioning that i needed to schedule some massages for my shoulder stiffness and was wondering if i had someone to help me with that, like a "significant other", because, and i quote, "young people shouldn't be single" (it might not be a direct quote, but that's the idea there). 

it just made me laugh a little. and mention that there wasn't anyone like that, and that i'd get just my mom to help me out. still more awkward. 

okay okay... i get the picture... *insert awkward crying face emoji here*

awesome

* should i make this an awkward if there's nothing to put here? cause i can't think of anything. doesn't mean it was a bad week, just nothing special.

anyway, that's all i got.

ciao!

Awkward & Awesome

Awkward

* Not being able to think of a single thing to write. 

That's a lie. 

* Being dumped over something melodramatic

Awesome

* My favorite shows coming back (Rizzoli & Isles and Perception).

* Posting this anyway. 

*Boom*

Awkward & Awesome....and Aggravating??

Better get this puppy out before I lose steam...

Awkward

* Swiping a car when pulling into a parking lot space. Yes I saw him and even slowed down but there you have it. I've busted myself doing this before yet there I was.

Add to nearly/almost doing it to another car tonight, you'd think I'd start to pay attention. 

You'd be right.

* A chin spasm. In one spot only. Both awkward and annoying. Then again, all spasms are annoying.

* Checking out some groceries (self-checkout, obviously) after the gym and I had two sets. One for my parents and one smaller one for me. I was trying to check out some lettuce and the barcode wasn't easily scannable. So I was trying to find a code for it when all of a sudden someone spoke behind me. The cashier was behind me telling me the code for the lettuce. Without warning. So yeah, that was weird.

* Also, the same cashier suddenly came up behind me as I was about to check out my things and started taking them away. Um, sir, those are mine. I'm planning on purchasing them. Kthanks.

Awesome

* On the other hand, on Monday I was also at the store (I go often) and the guy helping me out was asking interesting questions. Like, what would I do if I won the lottery. Where I'd go specifically. Also, would I come back to the U.S. (that one was a new one). It's fun when someone makes something so mundane a little bit more fun.

* Getting a text today from the person who I swiped in the parking lot (see above) saying they can't find any damage and not to worry about it. I definitely got lucky this time.

Awkward or Awesome? (I haven't decided yet...)

A client today said I looked like Kristen Stewart. Yeah, the Twilight actress. Then they asked me if I'd talked to Edward lately. Ummmm....no? I don't know what it was, only that that was a new one. Haven't had that comparison before.

Aggravating

* People standing in the middle of the grocery aisle, apparently clueless to the people around them. And then I'm a jerk for asking you to move....no win situation.

* Also, people taking up a whole lot of room at the gym for absolutely no good reason. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO SHARE, OKAY? *grrrr*

Anyway, that's just something new I'm throwing up there - something that's always irritated me...

Anyway..............

Ciao!

Awkward & Awesome....Friday

I don't know what to write here considering this will be 2 weeks in a row that I've posted an A&A...

Bahahaha, that didn't happen as planned! Well....let's do this Friday style!

Awkward

* When your doctor asks if you're pregnant and when you say 'no', he continues to talk as if he's not convinced. Then you have to repeat that yes, you're sure that there's *no* way....oh good that worked. *headdesk*

 * Prescriptions & insurance. I've had to call my insurance company twice about medications that aren't "covered"...both times to find that they ARE covered but one is now only $250 instead of $350 and the other one is covered once I've tried other medications first (basically they won't cover it unless I can show that nothing else works).

* Having to talk to your doctors to get them to understand what's going on and "other options". Now, I don't have any thoughts about thinking that I know more than you do, but when my insurance won't cover a medication you've prescribed for me, I have to see what my options are. Nothing personal! (side note - Rabia [I know you read this] - I didn't mean for this to become a dr. post but there you have it! In case I haven't mentioned it before - I'm super impressed that you're becoming one! <3)

Awesome

* Ketogenic Earl Grey tea with SF vanilla syrup (and a hint of splenda). Perfect for an overcast chilly Friday (since Fridays are Starbucks coffee days after all)... 

* A plan for headaches. Yeah, having them isn't *awesome* but finding a doctor who wants to give anything and everything a try, is! It's also nice to have a plan.

* INDOOR TRAMPOLINE PARK! The C&C group is having our monthly "event" tonight and we're mixing it up with a trampoline park night. I've never done one of these before but I'm super excited about it.

* Busy weekends. I have so many social activities planned for this weekend! I'm sure by the end of it I'm going to be a nasty old grump but honestly it's worth it. Especially having hours and hours to explore my hometown between activities. Can't ask for more than that!

One of these days I'll actually have interesting things to talk about! I always look back on these and am so not impressed with myself, but I like writing them. Oh well!

Ciao!
