Hello everyone!
Well it was a crazy night as most of you know. It hailed throughout the night. I ended up getting home literally right before the rain started. I worked at Southpark mall last night until 8. While I was waiting for the bus to come, it was getting dark, and starting to rain. Then Scott picked me up at Randolph Park and Ride at 9:15. By that time, it was raining. Then it started to hail while I was taking a shower. At first I thought Scott was just working on something, and then when I stepped out of the shower I heard the hail. Scotts car was covered up, so no damages done to the truck, but a porchlight did get busted.
I hope everyone is ok despite the crazy weather last night. I hope anyone whos car or property got damaged are able to get it fixed up as quickly as possible, and remember you're more important than anything that has to be replaced.
Love you all

I really do need to slow down a little...
Hi everyone!
Well, this past Saturday I worked at the Poteet Strawberry festival on Saturday until 4.
It was cool. There was strawberry jam, strawberry necklaces, people trickriding on horses, a carnival , strawberry shortcake and even a guy dressed up as a strawberry. I was just a little dissapointed because after my shift, my co worker and I tried to buy some strawberries to take home with us on the way out, and by the time we got there, they where sold out already. :0( We where like how can you run out of strawberries at a strawberry festival? But there where plenty of booths selling turkey legs, tacos, strawberry shortcake or funnel cake though. Then it took us at least two hours to get back to San Antonio from Poteet because of festival traffic. ( Long story short- it always takes forever because Poteet is always packed when the strawberry festival is going on, and there's only one country road to go in and out of the fairgrounds, so there you go.) After I finally got home, Scott and I went to Jims to get dinner. I obviously wasn't much company at that time. I was falling asleep at the booth, it took forever for me just to eat my chicken and the tortilla soup I ordered. Then as soon as we got home, I fell asleep until it was time for me to get ready for work this morning.
Sunday, I worked at Six Flags until the parked closed, and yesterday I worked the evening shift at Ingram Park Mall. It was slow, but I got my mothers day gift already. So yeah I am a good daughter after all. *hehe* But I think the fact that I was so tired Saturday is a sign I do need to slow down at least a little. Hopefully I can figure out where the fat needs to be cut.
Love you all.

Friday night blog
Hello everyone! Happy Friday. I hope everyone is everyone a good day so far. Today I worked at Southpark Mall, then after that, I know Scott and I will be going out to Boozehounds for a little bit. We just had dinner, and he is just about to start getting ready. Then Saturday I will be at the Strawberry Poteet festival. I am looking forward to seeing all the strawberry stuff for sale. It reminds me of when my grandparents and I would go to Mt. Vernon, Washington (state) , and we would take home several bushels of strawberries grown there, then grandma would make strawberry shortcake with the strawberries I didn't eat. *hehe* Good times, good times. Then Sunday, like a boomerang, I will be back at Six Flags.
I am just hoping my allergies can handle the weather. With the high oak, I feel like you might as well just put an IV of Benadryll to my arm sometimes. Seriously, if I don't take allergy medication, or it gets really humid, I need a tissue almost every five seconds- it isn't pretty.
I am just looking forward to the end of the month. Between running around- literally and metaphorically it will be nice to see everyone back in Washington. I'll get to catch up, run with my mom, and there will be a Starbucks or some coffee stand around every corner, so life will be good. Plus, I can tell I just need a vacation.
Love you all.

Sometimes you get what you need...
Happy Monday everyone.
This weekend went by quicker than I thought. Saturday I worked at Six Flags and then the Spurs game that night. Apparently, they where trying to get everyone excited about Fiesta, because everyone working at the At&T center where wearing badges that said "Los Spurs" on it, and Miss Fiesta was there walking around.
Sunday apparently, things ended up working out for the best. I was scheduled to work until 7 at Six Flags, and my mom said she had a meeting not too far from me until 6:30, so we where planning to meet up after I got off since she had something for me. Well, I got to leave work at 5 because it was slow at the park, and there wasn't a need for two greeters. I texted mom on my way to the enterance, and she was able to meet up with me right away. So, we got to meet up around 5:30, ended up going to her friend Jims house for a little bit, and then we ate at Bill Millers before parting ways so everything worked out like it was meant to be. Today turned out to be the usual. I ran while Scott worked. Then we ate lunch,and we just ate dinner. Tomorrow it is back to work for me. Between having to run long, and working , I feel like I have two jobs sometimes. (Oy.) I think Washington will be a much needed break.
Love you all

Trifles
Hey everyone! It's Friday you know what that means- the end of a long workweek. Yeah! ^.^ Last night I worked at Disney on Ice, so I spent the evening outside the Alamodome talking to people wearing Disney shirts , and wondering how many little girls dressed up as Ana and Elsa from "Frozen." Everytime I work this event, it reminds me of when I worked at Walt Disney World, and makes me wish I where still a kid so I can run around dressed like a Disney Princess, and not get too many strange looks for doing so. I had today off, so after I was done at the gym, I ended up watching Rush Hour 3 while Scott worked. It was nice just to have the place to myself for a little bit, and to be able to kick back. Later on tonight we will be celebrating a friends birthday. Woot!
Only part that sucked about today is the fact that Scotts truck had a water leak, which hopefully will be taken care of soon. But we'll see, I guess. Tomorrow I work at Six Flags and the Spurs game, and Sunday I work at Southpark mall. As spring rolls on, and my allergies continue to get to me, I am wondering about the little things in a relationship that keep people together.
Scott and I have lived together for a year and a half now. So there are some things that are starting to get to us, and we've gone from the getting to know one another stage to the comfortable stage. I know I am difficult. I need my morning run, and morning coffee to get going. *hehe* I can be very selfish, grumpy, and childish. But I am lucky to have someone in my life , who even when he's mad at me first thing in the morning, still always makes me a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. If that's not love, I don't know what is.

After Easter Blog
Hello everyone!
I hope everyone is having a good beginning of the workweek. I spent Easter Sunday at Six Flags working. But, I at least got a free bunny shaped cookie out of my time there, plus whatever leads I got. Saturday Scott and I ended up going to Jims and having dinner there. Then we relaxed atand watched Jurassic Park. So it was a nice and relaxing evening.
I was off today, so I ran while Scott worked. I am beginning to wonder how many people keep their dogs on a leash now. While I was running, two dogs came toward me, while they where barking , so I finished the remainder of my run at the gym after that. I am going to have to find another running route. I love dogs, and cats with all my heart, but not when I am trying to run.
Anyway, Scott and I just ate dinner, and we're ready to settle in for the night. I have an episode of Charmed on, and soon we'll have coffee. Yeah for the little things like that. *Hehe*
Tomorrow it will be back to work. I have a couple of mall shifts, then I get to work Disney on ice, and I am at the park and Spurs again. ( Go Spurs Go! lol)
I am just glad everyone's Spring Break is over with, so it's just the weekends at Six Flags now until summer, and it is just malls during the week. Last week I had to have co workers translate for me half the time, because alot of people at the park where from Mexico.(Oley.)
Anyway, have a good workweek everyone.
Love you all.

Pre Easter Blog
Hi everyone!
I hope everyone is having an awesome weekend. Mine turned out to be the usual- I worked, came home, after our laundry was done Scott and I ate, and went to Boozehounds. Right now I am a little bummed because I was told I will be needed to work all day at Six Flags Easter Sunday. So I guess tonight and tomorrow will be my Easter celebration.
Normally on Easter, my mom and I would just go to church, and have dinner with friends.
Aside from work, I've been trying to get used to running on hills. But even on the treadmill at the gym, I am still feeling it when the incline is above 3 -ha!
I am nervous and excited at the same time. It will be the first time I have gone out of state to do a run. I am wondering if I will be able to complete the course , how well I will do, and of course it will be the first time Teddy will will my mom and I running together.
Before going put, I ended up rewatching "Fever Pitch." The two main charectors remind me of how Scott and I are.
On the weekends, Scott likes to go out and watch his bands perform, and I am always the one having to go I have to work in the morning , so I can't always stay until 2 am then go eat at Jims. That, and the fact I don't really drink- I've told Scott several times he can go without me . But, I guess if Drew Barrymore and Jimmy Fallon can make it work, so can Scott and I.
