Crazyness

I can't even believe it's only a week and a half until Christmas.  Where has my life gone?  Oh, that's right, I have two jobs that suck every free second away from my life.  Whether I'm at work, driving to and from work, stressed about the drama at work or just exhausted from work, I basically have no life outside of work.  Except Saturdays.  My one day to be free to sleep, laugh, live my life, spend time with my man friend, and pretend I have even the slightest resemblance to a weekend. 

This is why I have officially decided to start looking for other jobs, preferably only one job with regular, normal hours.  That concept seems so foreign to me and so, so wonderful.  I have been looking for months upon months for a job, but cannot find much.  I'm hoping that with my new found optimism towards my future and life will give the universe the positive energy it needs to give me the greatest job I could ever hope for.  And if that doesn't happen, I'll just take normal hours, please.  Thanks.

Surprise!

Last week was epically stressful for both Mark and I, so when Friday finally rolled around I was particularly excited/ relieved.  Mark had been out of town, so I decided that when he got home I would take him on an adventure.  I am not the most decisive person on the planet, so I think the majority of Mark's excitement was that everything was planned and set up and didn't require any decision be made.

So first we had dinner reservations as a little local place called Serratos.  It was delicious.  I wanted the waiter to take our picture, but he was MIA for most of the meal.  Hense these awesome, awkward pictures:

After dinner we went to destination 2: the city lights overlook.  You couldn't tell, but you can see the whole city from where we were.  There was also a bush.  

So we hung out, drank our Irish Cream steamer and talked and enjoyed each other's company.  Then, we got a little antsy.  And then this happened:  Yeah we are dorks.  

After that we went to the waterfront and walked on the boardwalk and got some delicious dessert.  Sorry, no pictures, there was too much eating going on.
