really quick update

so, it's been a week since my last post and let's just say things are going much better. i still don't have a job, but at least i'm enjoying myself a lot more than i was. mostly i've been running errands with my aunt carrie and cousin holden, but at least i get out of the house and can see what germantown has to offer. i had another job interview on friday, but i haven't gotten a response yet from that...probably next week. the excitingness of this past week have been: huge sunday dinner last sunday with a bunch of people from the ward, carrie's dance class, watching SYTYCD a day late at the Honeycut's with April and Carrie, IKEA to shop for new storage things, BWI airport to pick up Carrie's annoying older brother (ugh), Indiana Jones with the largest cup of Dr. Pepper I have ever seen, Five Guys burgers and a DC United game with my uncle Steven (we won, 3-2 vs Toronto....sorry all my Canadian readers hah), then buying ice cream at Safeway at 11 at night since everything else was closed ("there's always room for ice cream"....I agree....), then a Krispy Kreme run tonight with free fresh glazed donuts, pie and ice cream for dessert. ("we're gonna turn you into a fat kid"..."i already am...") oh. the joys. i think the best was going to five guys and ordering their "regular" burger which is actually two slabs of meat on a bun and eating the ENTIRE thing after my uncle told me "good luck". needless to say he was pretty impressed with my eating capabilities. then i ate all of dinner tonight--stuffed chicken, salad and pasta. PLUS i mentioned that i was going to go to KK with Carrie (and he understood why) and then came home and ate pie and ice cream as well. he can't beat me. i dominate. :)
oh but wait, the highlight was definitely today after church...we drove down the street from their house to this park to take pictures on a bridge because they wanted to replace the pictures in their frames. all was well for a while...i walked around in my high white heels with my sunglasses on and my phone out in front of me while i texted....then i put my phone in my camera case but forgot to zip it up so as i leaned over, my phone fell out, hitting the bridge, breaking apart (mostly the battery popped out) and falling into the river below. luckily the river was shallow and not moving much. but i threw off my shoes and ran to the bank of the river to try to retrieve it. my uncle just laughed at me. i almost fell in, wearing my nice church dress, splashed all over the place and was the perfect candidate for my uncle's photography skills. i was able to get my phone back but it is currently out of commission for the time being as it dries out. pray that it works again because if it doesn't, well, then i don't know what i'll do, seeing as i have to either fix or buy a new computer. *sigh* bad luck seems to be on my tail at the moment...
however, tomorrow will be an adventure as we travel to the great state of pennsylvania: Hershey Park, Gettysburg, Lancaster (i'd go visit Aaron, IF my phone was working to call him and IF he didn't just have hand surgery...), and some other places...not quite sure where or why. after PA, i'm not sure where else we'll go. all i know is I'm either going back there next weekend to hang out with Jason or he's coming here to compete in my uncle's annual foosball tournament. should be an interesting week :)

[no pictures can or will be posted for some time. that is only because of the fact that my computer is out of commission and i don't want to fill up my uncle's with my pictures. however, rest assured that i have some and they will be posted as soon as possible]
