Sunday

So yesterday I was actually very productive, out of guilt for not being productive at all in the last week.  I woke up pretty early (for the weekend) and proceeded to immediately start a load of laundry.  Then I went to the store to pick up ingredients for a carrot cake that I decided to make for D.  He made me a cheesecake for my birthday, so I figured it was only fair that I made him something eventually.  Even though I don’t cook and am deathly afraid of the kitchen.  So making that took a really long time, especially with grating all the carrots and chopping up the nuts.  After it cooked I still had to make the icing (4 cups of powdered sugar!) and wait until it cooled to ice it.  Getting it out of the pan and onto a cooling rack and then into a serving dish was quite a feat.  After that I took my brother L. to Borders to get Father’s Day presents.  I got my dad a Flaming Lips cd and L. got him a book.  Then my aunt and cousin were over, and I went over to D.’s briefly to drop off the cake.  We watched part of Paris, Je T’aime and he didn’t like it, but I did because I was just in Paris .  Then we went over to my house since we were having a cookout.  I had a veggie burger, even though I’m barely vegetarian anymore.  Ok, I’m really not vegetarian anymore.  After 5 years.  Bad Em … haha.  But I didn’t want to put up with the sass from family friend S.  After family time we went back to his house, where we drank and watched Talladega Nights.

Today I woke up at 11 and found out that my brother made it into the semifinals of his tennis tournament.  So then I drove 40 minutes to where it was being held and watched the finals, which he won.  Then we all ate lunch at Applebee’s, drove back, and now I need to find out what the Father’s Day dinner plan is.  I just want to go over to D.’s and watch Life as a House, but I might have to do something with the fam.  I think I’m skipping out of ultimate frisbee, but it’s ok because D. is too and he’s one of the main ones.

Oh, and I forgot Friday. At work we set up for a wedding all day – I learned how to fold napkins like a fan.  B. was being really nice which was good.  After work I briefly hit tennis balls with my dad and L.  Then we had a going away dinner for our family friend Y.

Anyway, the rest of today should be pretty chill.  And then work again tomorrow :/.

I am obsessed with this song “I Kissed a Girl”.  Oh, and Miley Cyrus … I didn’t know that song “7 Things” was by her but then they said it today on the radio.  She’s become practically an overnight sensation … how has she done more by age 15 than I will in my life?  Or at least become more famous … haha.  And as usual I love Rihanna but I don’t like her newest single, “Take a Bow”.  So there are some updates on my music taste.  And I can’t stand Colbie Caillat.  How boring is she?

Ok, I should probably roll out.
