Playing Catch Up

I've been meaning to post here for awhile, but a new semester just started here at the college, and I've been busy around the office with students and such. Plus the announcement of us moving to a new building in August, it's been pretty hectic.

A couple of weeks ago, I had my phone stolen right off my work desk while I was gone for not even 2-3 minutes. I went to the restroom, and when I came back, I noticed almost immediately that my phone was gone. I thought maybe I had carried it to the bathroom with me or the lounge. I looked in my purse and all over where I was. It wasn't even 9AM, so I hadn't been there an hour, meaning I hadn't been very many places yet.

Finally I called down to security and we looked over the security cameras. Nothing concrete, but there were two men up here for a very short time while I was away from my desk. Unfortunately, the cameras don't go into the rooms, so.... grrr

But about a week ago, I got a new phone. It's a Samsung Galaxy SII - the white version. I LOVE it.

This isn't mine, but it's the same phone. The colors are so vibrant and clear. It's amazing.

Also, I got contacts again. I missed them so much. I was starting to hate my glasses. I got them in time for vacation. But today I lost one trying to put it in. :( I was too sleepy apparently. Which sucks. Today has been a sucky morning. I hope the afternoon is better and that it speeds up!

Vacation was nice. I wish we could have been away longer so we didn't feel rushed on some things. We went to Williamsburg, VA. It was fun. We saw Jamestown, the first settlement, and the place where Pocahontas married John Rolfe. Then we saw Yorktown, and even toured Historic Williamsburg during a candlelight ghost tour. Then we went to Virginia Beach. That felt rushed, but only because we were there for a day. We took a dolphin cruise where only adults were allowed on the boat. Adult beverages were served, and it was a lot of fun. The water was rough from the tropical storms so that made it even better! lol

Other than that, nothing much else to report on. I've lost approximately 6 pounds or so. Not a huge amount, but it's a start! I don't remember if I posted here when I thought I had lost 15, but that wasn't the case. It was a mistake :(

Currently, there is someone who just comes into the admissions area and just sits here... waiting for class. It's kinda creepy. He sneaked up on me yesterday and it freaked me out. All he does is sit here and watch people and listen to conversations. *shudders*

Also, I have poison ivy. It's spreading like wildfire :( Matt had it first, and I think Chewy gave it too us because there is a poison ivy plant that he keep going to and peeing on. Then he gets on our bed while we're at work... So the oil gets transferred from him to the sheets to us. Right now we're rubbing alcohol on the blisters, and it seems to be drying up, but then it flares up again. It's driving me CRAZY!

Oh well... hopefully when I update again, it'll be gone.... because I never know how long between updates! lol
