Life Update - June 4

Hello my Pesky Parakeets,

I'm sitting here eating Mint Chocolate Chip ice-cream (read: heaven in a cup) and suffering with the video upload process so from now on I will not announce vlog posts because that seems to jinx them. I am 3/4 of the way done with Modern Family season1 and I have yet to watch Star Wars. Apparently there are 50,000 minutes left on this upload which isn't terribly promising but I remain hopeful that I can post this by tomorrow because I swear it's funny! (I mean, I AM in it)

So. Notes.

* Got a YMCA membership today and they have ergs.
* baked a strawberry rhubarb pie which is one of my top five ever made
* discovered that adding unsweetened Hershey's chocolate powder to coffee DOES NOT improve the taste
* I hate butter cooked with chicken so I'm never doing that again
* Cosmopolitan is a really sexist magazine, BUT since I read I do (hypocritically) read it every month I'm considering doing monthly posts about it. Not sure.
* None of my friends have texted me in the past four days. But Di and Julia have called so maybe I do have friends after all (yay.)
* I watched like half an hour of hockey on Saturday (which sounds so far away) and now I have like four crushes on random hockey players
* I need human contact. I think I'm going to make a date with my neighbor. She's chill and I already talked to her yesterday. (Score one for making friends)
*I had the weirdest dreams last night! I need to write them down and if any of my esteemed readers are dream interpreters RUN FREE and interpret.

So working backwards from the last dream:
- Woke up (in the dream) and went to Bi Hall (science building at Middlebury). I was standing around talking to this really attractive guy who looked like Viktor Krum and just chilling when all of a sudden the topic of what day of the week it was came up. It was apparently Thursday and in my dream I was trying to remember having taken my Psych exam. I realized in the dream that my Psych exam was on Wednesday and I had missed it. So I sprinted down to my Professor's office (243) in Bi Hall and there was a long line of people outside her office because they were giving oral presentations. Frantically I asked everyone if I could cut the line and they let me in, my professor started panicking before I'd opened my mouth and screamed "OH MY GOD WHAT'S WRONG". I woke up out of breath.

- The Middle dream took place in a liquor store (no idea why) and my neighbor was there along with her friend who looked half Indian and worked behind the counter. She told me they didn't card so I bought a bottle of Grey Goose and Skyy and then planned to hide them in my grandpa's house. So while making these plans I somehow got roped into throwing a party inviting my neighbor and her friends -- some of them were really large football player types, out of my league by all standards. Anyways, this was somehow going to be a giant party with 'smores involved and then it kind of faded out because we had to close the liquor store with this girl who was working there and for some reason the liquor store had a garage door so the last thing I remember was the door coming down.

- The first dream I had was really weird too. I dreamt that I was watching a Kings-Devils hockey game and it was four minutes into the first period and the Kings were up 4-1 (something I doubt would ever happen). And in my dream I was trying to convince myself to be weirded out by it in solitude. I caved however and ended up texting like the only friend I have who could possibly care about hockey. I woke up kind of weirded out and had to check my phone a couple times to make sure I didn't text anyone. I didn't, so yay for me having all kinds of self-control.

Anyways, I'm done with that ice-cream so I'm off to journal (so lame) and go to bed because I need to go to the gym tomorrow and keep myself at a respectable coxswain's weight. Ice-cream is not helping.

Kisses,
ERS
