I am home ill today. Have been suffering from a cold for a little over a week...and well it has finally gotten the better of me. :( Moving my stuff this weekend and traveling 5 hours each way to get there didn't really help my body heal.
Slept late which was wonderful! Sadly it's rainy and dreary on my day off. booooooo!
Not much else is happening around here. We met some friends for lunch on Saturday. One of them thought we were all meeting for a 'big announcement'...i.e. that we were either engaged or I had a bun in the oven. RIDICULOUS!! I was so taken aback by that thought...the baby one. OH MY GOD!! No way. Not even possible. So that made for an eventful lunch. ha
Saw Catherine-Rose's new apartment. Basically London prices are ridiculous...for 200 more pounds a month in edinburgh I could have an enormous 2 bedroom, 1 bath, massive kitchen with 6 burners, a study room, and cute features. :( Yet in London I only have a room smaller than CR's kitchen and share a bathroom. Nice.

Back 'home'
I am back in the UK. Loving springtime and so ready for cute summer clothes.
Mileage to 'get' me to Croatia is going well, but I have contracted some kind of cold. Probably from one of the millions of people I share a tube train with each morning. :)
Work is good. Crazy busy this week. Worked 10.5 hours yesterday and honestly didn't get that much accomplished. This was mostly due to me being assigned the work of someone FIVE levels above me. Oh well. After wasting all that time trying to re-design the wheel, I received a similar report already submitted to another client. This morning I was able to spend 3 hours writing up my report for which I was told I did a 'brilliant job'. Go me!!! That was after a long day yesterday, stressing out, a nervous breakdown when i couldn't find my saved file, and alot of coffee.
woooooo i'm tired just writing about it.
I'm trying out Twitter. I don't know what the big deal is, but I hope by doing it my blog will stay updated more often. You won't have to join if you don't want to do so, but my happenings will be posted across the top of the pagE!!

So little time....
many things to update about...
I am currently in the US due to my grandfather passing away.
I have gained probably 2-3 pounds in one week of being in the US.
G had the privilege of meeting the majority of my family.
Chik-fil-a is better than i remember and much more expensive.
The UK should really learn how to cook Mexican food.
Wal-Mart produce is disgusting...as in rotten and rank!
Americans eat way too much junk food, processed food, and fast food. Well too much food in general.
I need to get exercising to prepare for my Croatian holiday in July. I think I'm going to do a virtual walk to Croatia with a few stops on the way. It is 766 miles from London to Motovun, Croatia. Now I HAVE to get walking. Woohoo.
I think I'll start tomorrow. Need to map out a route in my neighbourhood to get my mileage. Sure do wish I had a treadmill. :(
Map below will be my first leg...London to Dover. Probably nothing cool to see, but I can use Google Street View to 'see the sites'.
