Finally Friday!

Let me just start with this: I am so glad that it's Friday, and that I have tomorrow off of work. I woke up early this morning, got ready, and then Megan took me to get my passport photos taken, and then to turn in my application and pictures. I went to Coborn's, a Minnesota grocer, to get my photos. After working in retail for many years it is so frusterating to me when employees are rude. The girl that did my pictures actually groaned when I said I needed to get passport photos. She then proceeded to moap about, grab the camera, and walk around the counter to where we would take the photo, take the photo, walk back around the counter, print the picture, ring me up, and give me the picture, ALL without saying a single word or cracking a smile. Talk about awkward. I was so pissed off. THEN, after dealing with her b.s., I went to the passport agency, where I was greeted with a group of super sweet women. This was a good start, though I was then informed that my photo may not work, and they suggested I take a new one because my bangs were covering part of my eyebrow. Being that my trip is in only 8 weeks, I didn't want to risk not getting my passport in time, so I paid another $17 to get them retaken there. SO frusterating. So, now I have to go back to Coborn's for a refund that I better get. You would think that someone who TAKES passport photos would be trained to know what is acceptable, and what isn't acceptable.

After this whole fiasco, I came back and made homemade pizza and watched Ghost Adventures, which managed to put me in a better mood. Then, I went to work at 1 and just got home a while ago. It was a long night at work. We are still prepping for inventory, which is on Sunday, but by now everything was pretty much ready. This means they had twice as many people as they needed, and a lot of us were just standing around...me for 8 hours. Ugh. Thank goodness I don't work tomorrow. THANK GOODNESS.

Ok, I am done ranting. It's ok though, right? I sure hope so.

This evening has made my day a little bit better. I made a delicious smoothie. Megan calls me the "Smoothie Master." I don't mean to brag, but I pretty much am. For real. Sorry, I'm done bragging. But seriously. ;)

OOOHH! Light bulb moment! I'll start posting some of my smoothie recipes! They are so good for you, and a perfect replacement for that ice cream urge. Don't lie to me...I know everyone has that.

Ok, so now I'm going to go do some sit ups, lunges, and push ups. I ordered a new swimsuit for motivation. It's simple, but cute. I was disappointed to find out that the body doesn't come with it.

Have a good night!!!!! :)
