Trophy Wives and Crickets

Mom--I hope you're reading this.

I killed a cricket today. All by myself. Yep.

Okay...so I sprayed it with Raid and Mindy came and picked it up. But I still worked up the nerve to get close to it in under an hour. Haha...I was totally going to pick it up myself...eventually...heh.

So the other day at work (the coffeeshop--I'm a nanny no more) this old guy told me I was pretty. I was like, okay--compliment--whatever. That's nice. But then he just kind of kept going. Trying to make the most out of a potentially creepy situation, I'll just say--if nothing else works out, at least I know that being a trophy wife is an option. He was driving a convertible. (Is that spelled right?) KIDDING. But it's nice to know that I have options...

Hopefully, though, I won't need those options. I have landed a career as the manager of a coffee shop. Not the one I'm currently an employee of, but one of them in the chain. I have to shadow for a month first, which means a pretty tight budget (especially since I had to buy a new phone today...), but once that month is over and I have officially learned "the ropes" as they say, I'll be the boss. Can you even imagine...? I'm a little nervous...

I think I overuse the "..."

...sorry. =)

Lincoln tomorrow! I'm gonna chill with Melissa for a while and then climbing with Jenny! So stoked...
I think I'm going to try to ride my bike to Scooter's tomorrow morning...it's like 4.5 miles each way. But I haven't gotten to ride it yet. We'll see what time I can get my lazy butt out of bed.

Confession--I miss the kids. Really. Even though they drove me crazy. They made me laugh a lot. And they're so dang cute.

Anyway. Tired. Sleep...
