Full first week of Summer 2015
Monday, June 8:
- Set up Dan's new computer printer! It's one of those fancy ones with a touch screen and connects through wifi. Took longer than an old one that just needs a USB cable, but it was cool. While setting that up, I learned the hard way that Fitz knows how to turn off the computer… so in the picture below, you can see that I had to put a coaster over the power button. (WHY WOULD YOU PUT A GIANT POWER BUTTON ON TOP OF SOMETHING WHERE A CAT WOULD CLEARLY WALK ON?!)

See? It's like Iggy Azalea… so fancy… get it…?
This lil' guy…
- Found some lessons on absolute value to work on with my tutorial kids.
- Went to Target to get a binder thing to keep all my tutorial papers in.
- Went to the post office to mail my parents' garage door opener back to them after they left it in Dan's car.
- Went for a walk (only after convincing myself to get a shake at kneaded pleasures to accompany me on the walk…) Thomas joined me at the Murchison track.
- Paid off a fine at the library because sometimes Monk is hard to get through…
- Monday Night Dinner with the gang
Tuesday, June 9:
- Monthly therapy session with the doc. Talked a lot about racism, privilege and McKinney.
- Went to the gym and did a little bit of weights and mostly elliptical.
- Went to Victoria's Secret to buy Caleigh a bachelorette gift, which was convenient because they were having one of their big sales.
- Went to Anthropologie and bought some hurricanes because why not?
- Went to the Asian supermarket because… why not?
- … Dan started watching a random show on Netflix called The Quest. It's ridiculous. Why won't we stop watching it??
I bought the two smaller sized ones. They'll go in the half bath downstairs. Thought it would pretty up the place if Dan won't let me get rid of that Shark poster…
Wednesday, June 10:
- TRICEPS IN PAIN FROM GYM YESTERDAY.
- Went to Half Price to kill time before a tutoring session because I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO NOT BE EARLY (… most of the time…)
- Tutored Kara
- Got to next tutoring session early so I walked around the neighborhood for a solid 20 minute walk. I subsequently showed up to tutoring DRENCHED in sweat.
- Tutored LilyRose
- Tried to make it to Target to buy Kingsman, but traffic SUUUUCKED so I just went home.
Thursday, June 11:
- Met up Alexa, Hollie & Laura at Central Market so Ryker could play while we hung out. I got there a little early so I went for a walk around the Central Park Pond
- Mimosa.
- Stopped by Chase to exchange some money for some Euros and to put my travel notice on my cards.
- Target to get a new bathing suit (… even though I have 1,000 I don't wear). Bought Kingsman (EGGGGGGGGSY!!!!!!!!)
- Tutored LilyRose: I taught her number "best friends." It's just one of those things that in my head I automatically think and it has always helped me with easy math problems. The best friends are 1&9, 2&8, 3&7, 4&6, and 5 is just friends with itself. :) BECAUSE THEY ALL EQUAL 10! 10 is such a nice number… Then we talked about some tricks with 9. 9 is fun. UGH I LOVE 9. And it's not just because I'm the 9th kid.
- Watched Kingsman with Dan.
Friday, June 12:
- Had lunch with Dan at El Chile
- Bought some yummy cheese for Caleigh's bachelorette weekend
- Went to the Bachelorette house and got there earlier than the out of towers. Set up a pretty little cheese tray so the girls can have something to snack on. Now I'm 3 lbs heavier. Thanks cheese!
- Hung out at the house with all the girls and did a little crafting to help out Caleigh with wedding supplies.
Saturday, June 13:
- Boat party.
- Boat party got me so tired, I couldn't even go out with the girls after. Love Caleigh though.
Sunday, June 14:
- Brunch with the party
- Moved my dressers around
- And not to forget, because Buddy totally reminded, I watched a ton of RuPaul's Drag Race & Untucked...

Summer 2015 Is a GO!
So… it's literally been about 2 years since my last post. I've said it before and I'll say it again… I find I only post when I'm bored. When there are things happening--I'm too busy to post! As you can see from my previous posts… even then, those were just really pictures. Anyway…
I'm determined to do THINGS over the summer. Try to be somewhat productive. In order to prove to myself that I'm doing things, I'm going to list the things I do… so I can see how many days were spent literally doing nothing. I'm going for somewhere just above the Titus Andromedon lifestyle:
Friday, June 5:
- Walk around the neighborhood (must go earlier than 9, too hot already)
- Brought in all my boxes and things from my car that I took home from school
- Grabbed a piece of Dan's wall that's on the floor because there's a hole in it (I… I don't even know…) and I plan to fix it… but I don't know what kind of wall it is.
- Try to use a Warhammer measuring stick (DON'T ASK) to measure the dimensions of a shelf I found and took off the side of the road. (It's the Danielle in me, I suppose).
- Dropped off some of Dan's clothes at Goodwill. (He knew this was happening, I didn't just steal his clothes).
- Stopped by school because I saw Purvin's car and wanted to see what she was up to/if she needed any help closing up. Ended up hanging out in the office with some people.
- Filled out my Perkins Loan Cancellation form and got it signed and faxed to UT.
- Went to Home Depot to get stuff to patch up the wall.
- Patched up the wall. Felt insanely proud of myself. It… probably could've been smoother, but whatever. I DID IT.
- Then I pretty much just hung out with the cats all day after that.

Obviously there were some routine things I did that I won't mention… like, going to the bathroom, reading a book, watching Netflix...

Before (hand is there for size reference)
After
Like, CUTEST.
I think it was quite the successful first day.
Saturday, June 6:
- Went for a walk, this time earlier, and much more tolerable
- Went shopping. This is a bad idea as I don't have the money to just go shopping all the time during the summer, but whatever. I bought a couple tops and shorts for my Greece trip, so clearly, these are imperative things
- Drove to Houston for Bella's graduation!!!!
Sunday, June 7:
- After failing to meet up with Shanna, Dan and I opted to go see the Houston Zoo!
- Bella's Graduation buffet dinner at Kim Son (nom nom nom)
That last picture is of us watching the video the family made for Bella. You can view it here.
