Hello blogger friends! I hope everyone is doing well this, Wednesday, August 11! Phew, another summer month down, but I can officially say 2 month(ish) until Chris gets back! Whoooo! As was the month of June, the month of July proved to be … hmmm… never a dull moment …
 |
| July 1: My Birthday!!! A week full of celebration: Aqua al 2, Art and Soul, Strawberry Cake, Cantina Marina, Cap Lounge, Uncle Julio's, Clarendon Ballroom. Thanks to all of my amazing family and friends for making turning the big 2-6 fabulous! |
 |
| July 8 - 12: Mom and Em Came to Visit!!! Nats Game, Natural History Museum, VIPs at the Marine Corps Evening Parade, Getting Organized, Shopping and best of all Love Love Love.  |
 |
| July 12 Happy: Dinner and catching up with a friend in town from Auburn. Sad: Thanks to a torrential downpour and a drain that could not handle the flood behind my apartment, my apartment flooded... |
 |
| Happy: None of my stuff (with the exception of few suitcases) was damaged AND I don't have nearly as much stuff as I thought I did considering everything I own (with the exception of a few pieces of furniture) fit in my bathroom and my kitchen. |
 |
| Special thanks to Honey G. and K. Chandler for giving me a place to live during the week I was homeless =). |

July 17 Friend's Birthday Party on a Rooftop Overlooking the Capitol. Best view in the city. I love when this city humbles me =)  |
 |
| July 19 New Carpet!!! |
 |
July 18 A jump start, a new tire, a new alternator and a new serpentine belt all in one day! I now know allllll about my alternator/ serpentine belt because I would not let them work on my car until they explained ever single detail to me. Happy to share my new found knowledge =) |
 |
July 20 A 3 hour Urgent Care experience (I developed a sinus infection/ cough at some point) that you probably would not believe if I told you... A Glimpse: The Doctor saw me and then sent me for a chest x-ray... she said she would be right back to give me my prescription... she needed to run to the bank... |
 |
| July 23 Dave Matthews Band at Nats Stadium Floor "seats" Ruled!!! ***Photo taken by yours truly, pretty proud of myself =)*** |

| August 1 Flight from P'Cola Delayed 2 Hours. Finally board the plane and take off. Mid ascent and shortly after a strange noise... flight attendant SPRINTS from the back of the plane to the front... My heart stops and the two men sitting in front of me look at each other and almost simultaneously say, "that's not good." Context Clues: Flight Attendants briskly walk back down the aisle with stacks of napkins - HUGE sigh of relief, clearly someone was sick however, not nearly that cut and dry... Long Story Short: After the Flight Attendant's panicked request over the intercom, "is there a Doctor on board, we have a sick passenger," the flight (headed for Charlotte) was diverted to ATL for an emergency landing because of sick passenger, Then Discovery: sick passenger is not only on tons of meds and weighing all of 110lbs, but she also downed 3 White Russians during the 2 hour delay in P'Cola, Emergency diversion to ATL - Cancelled We finally made it to Charlotte where I sprinted to make my flight back to DCA, but I made it =) Ahh the joys of travel these days... |
At least I had plenty to keep my mind off of Chris =)?
Whoooo for only having a few more months until he gets back!
Dang girl! It's hard to believe you can pack that much activity into such a small time frame. Next month you will probably out-do the last and add on a marathon, world peace, plan the rest of the renewal ceremony and fly to Japan. You always amaze me :)
ReplyDeleteMiss you!
Gah, how did you know?! I just booked my flight to Japan! Hahaha. Miss you!
ReplyDeletenever a dull moment with you, huh??
ReplyDeletelor-dy...mer-cy!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd to think I've been worried about CHRIS for the past month!
