Because kraft dinner is awesome!

I want to share this little gem for your viewing pleasure (tell me this does not look EXACTLY like Evan!):

So I made a big life decision the other day. I think I want to train for a half marathon for next May. You might be wondering why I'm thinking of subjecting my body to such cruel and unusual treatment. The reasons, my friends, are two-fold:

1) I want the t-shirt

2) When I'm 80 and undergoing knee-replacement surgery, I want to be able to look back and pinpoint the EXACT cause. Being in a half-marathon will allow me to do just that.

Reminder: I will be with Tevie in the USofA from July 31 to August 6 and then by my lonesome til the 18th-ish (with a week of that time spent at poop camp AKA the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America's summer camp).

This is not a cop-out blog. this is very important information

This is for your viewing pleasure, you three raccoon babies.

Minute 1:02 reminds me of Baby Raccoon Alex's face. I'm sure you will all agree.

Click here, dummies!!!!!

good-bye 'different school of thought'.

So today was pretty wonderful.

1) Joe told me to "have a good day a woooorwk"
2) I looked good (flowy flowered tank with black pencil skirt. niiiiice)
3) 99 cent iced coffee from Dunkin Donuts
4) Lauren brought in DELICIOUS brownie treats
5) I was hugged by my equally not huggy boss
6) left at noon!
7) had lunch with my favorite co-workers and got the best going away cards
8) said good-bye to Kaplan. for.ev.er.
9) Scalped $10 Cubs tix with Amalia!
10) Cubs won!
11) sipped on some Prosecco and strawberries

It feels so weird and liberating to be unemployed. Granted I have only missed a potential of 4 work hours since I didn't stay until the end of the day, it is still a strange feeling nonetheless. Geez I feel like this day has been in the works for so long.. pretty much ever since day one in Jan 2008. I am no longer a Kaplan employee. What??? So. freaking. bizzare. My mind is actually blown. Not that it was an awful company- because it wasn't. The environment was supportive, the pay was fine, and some of my co-workers became actual friends who I will sincerely miss. It's just that I can only spend so much of my life being a transcript evaluator, and two years seemed to be the max. period. Wow, this is seriously too weird and probably won't even really hit me until I am living in Austin jobless... hello.

Aw, here they are, all huddled together, except for Evan...She was "in a mood" that day.

















Now we can see them in their ugly disgusting human form. NOBODY TOUCH THEM! ALEX...STOP IT!








And the hairiest one of them all, showing off to the rest.

Evan: yes please explain to the challenged one

oh did you mean for the parentheses to be secret? because i can read that

Jenna: shit

i thought you couldn't read in parentheses

okay, so the rules are you write about what is going on in your life,whatever pops into your head, and/or response to the previous blog and we don't have to ALWAYS go in order

it was kinda her idea?

Evan: jenna's the slave driver here, we can tell

Jenna: evan what color would you want to be?

Evan: bright pink with hearts over the 'i's
