Blog idea “stolen” from Chrissy’s blog and originally started by Sydney at TheDaybook.
- The weather has gone from sunny to rainy to cold and back to warm. Very awkward, especially for May. I wouldn’t mind a little bit more consistency now.
- The nerve of some people. Seriously. Cannot go into detail (it’s work-related), but oh man, do some people need a refresher course in proper etiquette.
- This stupid cold that I’ve been nursing since Monday could really go away. Really now.
- Waiting to hear from a friend that hasn’t been in touch for a while. I hope she’s ok.
- I bumped into our old roommate at the hair salon on Friday. I hadn’t seen or talked to her in three years. That was definitely awkward and I mean, what are the chances? It was alright though. After the first initial shock moment, we acted like civil adults and then both went our ways.
- A
threefour day weekend is upon us! - This means: sleeping in!
- Have I mentioned that I love my iPhone? I ♥ MY iPHONE! I never thought I could love a gadget that much, but I do. Best of all, it basically keeps me in touch with my overseas peeps for free (well, obviously not completely for free, but I don’t have to pay extra.) No more international text messaging!
- Related to my new gadget: I can’t wait for the case that I ordered to get here. It’s so freakin’ cute.
- My parents will be here in exactly 2 months and 2 days. This is definitely AWESOME!
- Also awesome is the time I’ll take off from work while they’re here. I haven’t had any time off since Christmas!
- I was recommended this book called “7 Habits of Highly Effective People” and I am dying to read it. It has great reviews and seems to be really inspirational. Has anybody heard of it or read it? I’ll get back to you on it when I have more information.

May 26, 2011 at 2:24 pmI love this post idea. Glad things were good and civil with your old roommate, I know how that feels. But I can also totally relate to the iphone lust, six months on me and Steve (as my iphone is called round these parts) are still going strong. It is a luscious bit of kit

May 26, 2011 at 2:26 pmHey…you did Awkward & Awesome, that’s cool! I like these posts!
Oh, and I’ve read the 7 Habits. It’s an epic book of greatness! I mean entire seminars/workshops/training sessions for companies have been created around this book. You’re gonna love it!
I actually went to see Stephen Covey speak, in person, back when I was in high school, it was inspiring!

May 26, 2011 at 5:11 pmI think David has that book! He’s not home right now or I’d totally get an impromptu review from him. I definitely hear you about the iPhone. I never considered myself a “gadget person” but I fell absolutely in love two seconds after I got my Android!

May 26, 2011 at 6:31 pmRunning into people from the past has the huge potential to be incredibly awkward. Hooray for your parents visit which is quickly approaching. I haven’t heard of the book but its definitely something that I am now going to check out. Have a fantastic long weekend.

What do you use for international texting? I’ve been using an app called Whats App- we should become texting buddies! E-mail me your info, miss!
