Chicken Pork Sunday

This weekend has gone by WAY too fast. But, for all of my complaints of not getting to hang out with people enough and not knowing very many people, I definitely made up for it this weekend.
• Thursday night I went to Ozona with a friend from my internship for my birthday and got a yummy drink.
• Friday was the last day of my internship, so we went out to lunch at this fancy place that was REALLY good but for some reason I've forgotten the name of. Then Matt and I went on a double date to Abuelo's with one of his engineering friends and his girlfriend, and played board games for awhile.
• Saturday got the oil in my car changed and went shopping for awhile for some cute things to wear to work (somewhat unsuccessfully ... see Grievances, below). Then bought birthday cupcakes (just plain frosting with sprinkles, no Harry Potter ones this year) and had people over to play poker. Made me miss Oklahoma a little, when we used to have penny poker nights and Huck would win every time.
• Today I ran errands, did a little more shopping and cooked dinner in my Crock Pot, but it's been a pretty lazy day. Attempted to go to church this evening, but it turns out the church we tried to go to only has the evening service when students are in town.

Grievances:
• I know people will hate me for saying this, but hey, if you don't want to read my blog then don't. I love shopping, but I hate that it is so hard to find cute, professional clothing for people who are smaller than "women's" size. Fine, maybe I am not a woman! Maybe I am still a little girl. But I can't be the only little-girl-sized person in the working world.
• All but one of the cute shirts I bought are sweaters, so even though they are cute and new, I can't wear them because summer in Texas is miserable. Why is it so hard to find summery, cute, professional clothing?
• I'm not even sure I need to have cute, professional clothing for my job. I am going to be very sad if I don't need to, because I have waited all this time to be able to do so!

Anyway, I start my new job tomorrow!!! I am excited and nervous. I hope it is fun.

That is all. Matt is watching the Rangers game on TV, so I am going to go watch Canada's Next Top Model while I can. :)

Hooray for Canada's next top model!! It's good!! How far along are you?

Also I agree with the professional summer clothing for small women. :-)

I'm about halfway through Cycle 2. I loooove Mr. Jay, but I am perplexed as to why he is the host! I like the way everything is filmed much more dramatically than ANTM!
