Work poops

There is nothing better than getting paid to poop. Best feeling. Today I didn't have anything to do til 1:30 so I hungout in bed all morning watching movies until Katelyn got done with her conference around 11 and came over to see me for a bit. It ruled and reminded me why I think business attire is the most attractive thing ever. Hands down.  She hungout with me for a bit before she had to go to work. Then I got up, grabbed my computer and put a bunch of new music on it for work today so my day would go by faster. So far work has been so so. Pretty boring with not much going on but that's usual. I had a peanut butter and jelly cupcake Katelyn bought me for easter and it might have been one of the best cupcakes I've ever eaten. Can't wait to eat the other one. Best girlfriend. Alright time to go get ready to close then drive out to Wyandotte for a bit.

Girlfriend suprises

Had a lot going on this weekend which ended up making me too lazy to post. It was a good weekend overall though. Here's a quick post of what I'm up to right now. I went and bought my girlfriend some of mine and her favorite cookies and decided I'd make her some ice cream cookie sandwiches, I made myself 2 as well. Here's a picture of the process, they're super quick and fun to make. Hope she likes them.

Last couple weeks

Been a while, going to try and do this on a regular basis. Hopefully daily as long as feedback and whatnot continues to be alright. I prefer this blog over tumblr just because there is a lot less hassle and it's more user friendly. This is going to be an unusually large update.

Yesterday I had my short French class where we only talked about museums which was completely fine with me, something I really enjoy can always help me cope with something I don't enjoy much. After that I had my first day back at work in about 2 weeks, that was rough to come back but it was nice to see some of the people I work with that are actually worthwhile. Got some homework done on my lunch break as well as. I did get to taste test some great new treats as well as tried some of the new products we got while I was gone. One of my new favorite things we have at my work (http://www.zerbos.com) is a product by Sophie's Kitchen (http://sophieskitchen.net/) a vegan calamari appetizer. Great meal, I suggest trying some of her products they are very reasonably priced and very filling. I threw a picture below so you can see what you're looking for if you run across it.

Last night I went to an official Detroit Red Wings viewing party at Motor City Casino in Detroit with Katelyn and her family. It was a good time but due to the game being in Phoenix it didn't start until 10:30 and in turn didn't end until about 1:30 leaving me pretty sleepy today. It was a good time though, won some prizes, caught a t-shirt and most importantly watched our Red Wings sweep the Phoenix Coyotes in what is their final game as that franchise. Looking forward to round 2 as our opponent is still unknown but the boys get a good week or so of rest that they need to heal up. 

Anyways, 4/9-4/18 I got to spend a little while doing merch for my friends on a pretty awesome tour (I'll post the tour poster). I unfortunately had to leave to come back to school for my last week and finals. With that being said, it was undoubtedly one of the best times I've ever had. I also got a new Nintendo DSI XL while being gone which has been nothing but fun as of now. Played lots of MarioKart at the merch tables. Instead of filling this with a list of memorable events from my trip I will post the video that was shot by myself and Matt Brasch (http://mattbrasch.tumblr.com/) that was an update for a tour blog through PropertyOfZack (http://propertyofzack.com/). The video would not let me upload the embedded file so here is a direct link to said video. (http://vimeo.com/22500945). Coming home was definitely a bummer to leave all these great people but of course being home to see my girlfriend was a great plus. I also get to see some great family this weekend that I'm very excited about. I am also going to post a few pictures from the first night of this tour in Lansing, MI that a good friend of mine Tommy (http://www.flickr.com/photos/bigxred) took from the night. 

I met some great new people on this tour and hopefully made some friends that I will get to see quite a bit of this year. The bands that were on this tour are all very notable bands that you should give a listen to, buy their merch, go to a show, anything helps them out they're all friends of mine and great people. Almost everyone of these bands have new albums coming out between now and the summer so don't sleep on them!

Bands:

As for today I have a day packed full of classes and homework, trying to figure out plans for this weekend and getting the rest of my bedroom picked up so that my laundromat trip this weekend will go smoothly, yes I am going to a laundromat even though we have perfectly well working washer/dryer at my house I just have that excessive of an amount of things to wash that it will be easier to do it all at once at a laundromat and have it all done so I can get back on a weekly laundry schedule instead of letting it pile up. I will post a picture of the seriousness of my laundry needs, it's kind of saddening. Welp that's plenty of information for today, hopefully I'll have another one for you tomorrow.

Using this maybe?

So I have been boycotting tumblr because it's just not as easy for me to update so I'm going to try and use this on a more regular basis and see how it goes. I will have an update by the end of the day of what I've largely been doing over the past month or so and my future plans for the next couple months. Hopefully things will be more regular on the updating.
