awkward + awesome.

a  w  k  w  a  r  d .  .  .
|| Moving.
|| Luna's inexplicable need to sniff everyone's crotch. "Oh she's SO sweet! Oh. Um. Can you make her stop that?"
|| Feeling sorry for a man asking shoppers to take a survey, and therefore taking the survey. The 45 minute survey. 45 minutes, kids. Most awkward: a man walking by, patting my shoulder, saying "Don't waste your time!" Loudly enough for nervous Survey Man to hear. How rude! :(
|| Having 5 roommates and 4 different sets of bananas. I may have eaten Max's.
|| Luna, all the time. She is doing so well with her house training. Most of the time. When she forgets, she thinks the library is a perfect place to go. UGH.
|| Me trying to put IKEA furniture together. "RYAN! They sent too many of these pieces!" (No, they didn't)  "Max! This board needs to be sawed to the correct length!" (No, it didn't) "I THINK I LOST AN IMPORTANT PIECE!" (I did.)
|| The man with good intentions, helping me carry furniture home from the yard sale down the street with Luna. "She's so pretty...It is incredible how much people look like their dogs!" "Uhmm...thank you..?"
|| Today I asked my class full of little ones what happened if we were to all yellyellyell all the time inside. I was going for "We won't hear anything" and "We won't be able to dance," (i.e. I wanted them to stop shouting). A few people said variations of this, and then the smallest, a curly-haired doll of a face looked up at me and said quietly "We go to jail." We go. To jail.
|| While trying to transfer my gym membership today, I had 3 city options after entering Massachusetts. Anchorage, Anchorage, or, Anchorage. I do not want to go to the gym that badly, thank you.
|| Luna at Farmer's Markets. She wants to do one thing only: lay in front of vendors.
|| The new Blogger layout is just kicking my butt.


a  w  e  s  o  m  e  .  .  .  .  .  .  .
|| Moving.
|| My roommates. They are the best. Ever.
|| Having a record player in the apartment so I can finally listen to the records I've been collecting. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band has been on almost every morning this week.
|| Making it to the gym. Finally.
|| Getting MB's hand-me-down desk. I'm so excited to get a new workspace.
|| Travelling with Phoebe.
|| Ohmigawd I could not, I mean COULD NOTstop laughing at this.
|| Ice coffee and chocolate chip muffins for lunch.
|| Men with southern accents. Swooooooon.

Looks like I'm mostly awkward lately. Yep, that sounds about right.
