The last two weeks have been a big sloshy mess. The day after my twenty fifth birthday, I hurt my back really badly at work, lifting a mannequin. I went back to work the next day (bad idea), and ended up being out for the rest of that week. Yep. It was that bad. In fact, it's been over a week now, and it's still pretty painful. I've been doing nothing more than resting up, laying in bed for hours upon hours, and renting almost a dozen movies off Cablevision, all of which I wasn't capable of completing. Yup, just me and my muscle relaxers. Their good for nothing other than keeping you from accomplishing what you've started. Literally. I woke up with half eaten things in my lap, half drunk glasses of juice, and half typed sentences on Twitter. Out cold. Just like that.
As if that wasn't unpleasant enough, I decide to go out saturday night for halloween, you know, to be somewhat civil, and to live up my newly twenty five year old status. (I had to test it out.) Fate would have it, that ninety percent of the people at this party were either full blown sick, getting sick, or were just germy. Within the next two days, almost every single person at this rager was sick with either the Swine Flu, the Flu, or just plain old sick. As luck would have it, I, of course, having the immune system of a poodle, got some weird viral infection. Which, of course, kept me out of work for another two days. So for the past two weeks, I've been in my bed, more than I've been at work. I can't even bear the thought of what these next two paychecks might look like.
Being that I finally, in fourteen days, felt better, decided to do something fun. My friend Nick and his friend Pat needed to do a photo shoot. So, I agreed. I had so much fun jumping off sand hills, playing with sticks in the sand, and staring down squirrels. I also felt super nerdy listening to them talk about "Canons", "Nikons" and "lenses", but in a cute nerdy kind of way. Photo shoots in parks/woods are my favorite. I'll share the awesome photos once I can get my little hands on them. Promise.
Oh! I have something fun to show you! My sister, who I'm so very proud of for learning how to knit, after I failed miserably at trying to relearn how, made me this awesome, super cozy and warm eternity scarf. It's a long tube when you lay it out, but you can wear it two different ways! Check out the photos at the top of this post to check out it's awesomeness!
