Post-Birthday Update

Image
One year older (and wiser too?) Who knows. According to the eye doctor (Mom bought me new contacts for my birthday!!!) I look 18, so that's cool. I actually don't mind looking young, it throws people off and makes me laugh. So yeah, new contacts! I love them! Being able to see is great, people. And one more year and I'm eligible for LASIK, which has been my dream ever since I first got glasses. Other stuff going on...Mockingjay was actually really good and really intense. If you've read the book, you know some... unexpected things happen and it gets intense fast. Plus, we snuck in cookies and cream popcorn to the theatre, best choice ever. (And yes, I do spell theatre the Olde English way...) C put up a photo wall for my present - it's was so cute! I'll have to put up a picture soon, but he hung up all these pictures and it's adorable. I got a new purse which I desperately needed, so excited to use it. Also got a new work cardigan, everyone knows those a

Mockingjay Day

Well, as far as my birthday week is concerned (GG reference) it's been okay. Haven't done much. Went to a basketball game to humor C on Wednesday, saw P get a school award yesterday, and tonight S is taking me to see Mockingjay. I'm cautiously excited. I really hated the book so in theory, the movie can't go anywhere but up, right? Ugh. I hope so.  In "K is an idiot" news, this morning I dropped the plug for my half-working blow dryer on my foot. It stung a little but I just figured I was being a wimp, so I put on my toast socks and moccasin-esque shoes and went to work. The stinging just got worse and worse, so at work I took my sock off and lo and behold, I was bleeding to death. Well not to death, but enough to merit a Band Aid. Thank goodness for my travel-size first aid kit I keep in my backpack, even though it's totally knock-off. It saved my favorite pair of socks! Aren't they awesome??? My favorite pair of socks, by far. So that happ

Ugh. It's Monday, everybody! I keep forgetting how much I hate them until they come around again. Today is no different, although it sucks even more than usual because it's FREEZING outside and my blow dryer is broken so my hair is always wet and... ugh. I just need to pony up and buy a new one, I suppose. The real reason I'm annoyed is because... I don't know how to describe it. *use your words, K...* Okay. I'm trying. I guess the main reason I'm annoyed is that people are such complainers (including myself, I'm not perfect, no way.) But my biggest annoyance are when people are like "my problem my problem my problem" on social media, but they don't understand that they brought it upon themselves. So you're poor. Big deal. Maybe if you didn't go on five million Disney trips you wouldn't be so poor. Just a thought. Ugh. It's like people complaining that they're fat and then eating an entire package of Oreos to console thems

Katelyn Watches TV

Yes, I'm doing this. You can't stop me! Lately a lot of exciting things have happened in the TV world and I'm going to write about it! Haha! And also, work is el lameo today, meaning there's nothing going on. Aaaaaaaand it's snowing... But anyways, to the list! Gilmore Girls:  Yes, this show aired back in like 2005. But still! I'm at the part where Rory and Dean are starting to have conversations again and I'm like NOOOOOO!!! Was Jess a jerk? Yes. But to run back to Dean?!! Come on, Rory. You're better than that... In other news, Lorelei and Luke's relationship is starting to get all cute, woohoo! Selfie:  Well, the show that I love is seemingly cancelled :( I've been tweeting to try and get it back but I think it's gone for good, and right when it was starting to get good! This show has a lot of potential! I mean, what if someone had decided to quit Friends after like five episodes? Or heaven forbid, Gilmore Girls??? I think my favori

Well here I am, sitting at work browsing the Internet while eating a PopTart. Already finished filing all the crap that got scanned yesterday, I hate that part. All the files are dusty and it gets all over me and by the time I'm done, I look like I just walked out of a dust storm or something. I mean, the purple socks... Come on.  ONLY the best song ever performed on Improvaganza. Actually, now that I think about it, this is ONE of the best songs ever performed on Improvaganza. The other one, is quite obviously... Wipe the Windows! Utter perfection. Well now that I'm going on an Improvaganza trip... Have some more gifs!  Yeah... the only ones I know that watched this show were my Centennial apartment friends, but whatever. I still watch it sometimes. Good stuff. Actually, when Wayne Brady came back on, there were some more good times. I'll have to go back and re-watch that one to find them but man. Colin Mochrie is still my favorite, af

Stories for C

Well friends, I'm back in town again, woot. Took a weekend trip down to St. George with C to see another band competition but it's over now. No more band competitions for me! And while I was more prepared this time with a heavier jacket, it was still way colder than you'd expect St. George to be. Also, C got me a hot chocolate so that made it better. (Haha. See, C? I mentioned you!) What else has happened... P dressed up as a little Jedi for Halloween. She's been pestering my poor mom all month long to let her dress up as a Star Wars character, so I guess Mom gave in and P got to be a Jedi, complete with her own light saber (saber? sabre?) I have never actually seen Star Wars, but I guess this is a big deal. My phone's photo memory is full, which is annoying, so I couldn't take a picture. I'll try to find one somewhere and post it later. Today I'm doing the work of both me and the afternoon secretary, which isn't hard. I really think I could trai
