TGIF!!

This was a great week!

Today, I worked on correcting redlines for a smaller project that Kaitlin and I are working on. Of course, she did the redlines, and I am making the corrections. I don't mind it, and I actually do enjoy doing that kind of work, but I did end up having to redo a couple things...damn cad xrefs!!

After work, I decided to go to the Pentagon City Mall. Honestly, I just wanted to go to Papyrus, haha! My Papyrus in Old Town closes at 7pm (can you believe it??), so I went to the one in Pentagon City. I bought Grandma a Birthday card, Ava a monkey card, and a couple other nice ones! They are expensive, but they're the cutest card I have ever seen! ...and since I got paid this week, I didn't feel bad at all for spending the money! If you buy 3, you get one free, which is a great deal for their cards! I also went to what I call the "Washington DC store," which just has a lot of touristy stuff in it. I bought Drew and Lilly Washington DC shirts. What kind of an Aunt would I be if I didn't butter up my nephews and nieces?!?! Besides, it's my reward to myself for getting my new apartment and getting another paycheck!

I made a vege burger with soy chorizo, avocado, and provolone cheese for dinner. YUMM! I also had a Magic Hat with it!

Now I'm watching this show called, "What would you do?" It's making me cringe!! These actors do public outrageous things and tries to get people to speak up. Honestly, there are so many people not saying anything...I don't think I could do that!! They actually keep acting til they get a response, though. There were three different scenarios:
1. A large woman and her child had a cart full of sweets and sugary goods at the grocery store. Then, a woman came up and kept telling her she's poisoning her and her family. The woman was crying and the other kept yelling at her about how unhealthy she was.
2. A verbally abusive guy was yelling at his girlfriend in a public park for being a whore. This is the one I think I would've gotten involved with, especially since the guy was under 18 and scrawny.
3. At the same grocery store, a man sprayed water onto the ground and slipped intentionally to be able to sue the store for it, saying it was already there. People definitely spoke up right away, actually.

Every single day, two men hand out newspapers, and every single day, I read about Prince George's County and how dangerous it is! Rhianna works there...I always think of her when I read the news. I hate the news, actually, but I grab it because I'd get bored on the train before work. People get murdered every day, the gangs are everywhere, the Metro system is falling apart (physically) and under regular maintenance, and Wiener will not stop making some kind of a headline. Wiener showed his wiener. Done. Let's stop hearing about it - he already embarrassed himself.

PS: Happy July 4th Weekend! I probably won't write, since I'm going to be in Baltimore to visit Mark, Heather, Drew, and Lilly! I leave tomorrow and I'll be back Monday!! Have a great weekend!
