The depths of my phone is a scary place. Most likely this is a similar situation to the depths of my brain.
You never know what you’re going to get.
And because things have been, like OMG SUPER CRAZY, and I can’t seem to put a string of thoughts together, here is a glimpse of random via my iPhone.
When it comes to first dates, I do everything I can to ensure it goes well. Enter my lucky socks:
And they worked!
No wonder I’ve had a string of bad dates. I’ve been wearing the wrong footwear. Who knew?
I also have a few other steps in my predate routine:
Just to make sure my nerves don’t get the best of me. It might not be the most mature solution. But it’s very much the tastiest.
And yes, that is a Tiger Beat with One Direction on the front. Long story. Not now.
Yesterday was a more stressful than usual day at work. Couple that with the fact that I was tired from the night before? Not an ideal situation.
But I have super sweet coworkers. And one practically dragged me out of the office by my hair to treat me to a little caffeine therapy:
Mocha lattes for everyone! She had a coupon. We had both skipped lunch. The 15 minute breather was the best thing we could have done.
After said busy day, grocery shopping still had to happen. Which was frustrating, because I was feeling super lazy.
My compromise was picking up ready-to-eat din din thanks to Trader Joe’s:
I really need to acquire some chopsticks. Like yesterday.
And unless you really want a picture of the burnt piece of toast I just ate, that’s really all to discuss here this morning. Sorry my mind is mush. It’s not my fault. Mostly.
Laters.

Ahhh, hey it’s almost the weekend! Hang in there:) Sounds like you have some good work buddies, I have a coffee pal as well.
Those socks are amazeballs!
Sometimes a quick break is absolutely necessarly. And very much appreciated. Totes.
Yay for good dates!!!!!!!!
I know!
Yaaaaayyyy!
Super cute socks! Do you find that Trader Joe’s sushi is super crumbly? Whenever I buy it, excitedly and in a hunger daze, I get home to eat it and it crumbles apart in the container as soon as it makes contact with a fork/chopstick. Grrr!
YES. I thought it was just me having bad luck with the sushi pick.
Love it, love a good date, and that sushi looks amazing. I’ll be catching up on last week’s posts today finally (P.S. you did the trapeze and THAT IS AWESOME!)
So much fun! They’re still doing it through Sept- you should go for it!
Mush happens. haha Here are my thoughts on proper fueling…
coffee = pre-work fuel
anything peanut buttery = pre-run fuel
wine = pre-date fuel (must be white wine – can’t give yourself away with purple wine lips)
I like where your head is at.
Who could resist those socks? Seriously.
I know. I am a sexy beast.
Haha, your love of knee socks kills me. I hope things calm down a little bit at work- and the weekend is in sight!
Right? And there are so much more to come… Bailey stocked me up for my birthday!
I have lucky socks too. They have hippos on them, and they work every time. Every. Time.
I’ve been wearing them since I was 16 but I’m scared to part with them.
Hippos and giraffes. We’re like soulmates, Leah. Totes.
Detailed email, please!!!! I’m waiting with bated breath over here!
Done!
ooh a mocha latte sounds like a great afternoon treat!
It was amazing! I need to do it more often
I can’t decide which I’m more curious aout… the date or the Tiger Beat.
Maybe we need to do lunch SOON so I can hear about both.
We should! Maybe next week? It’s a little crazy, but I can try and make it work!
Hooray for a good date night
Is there going to be a date #2? And are those socks just good luck for the first date or will you have to wear them from here on out?
ha ha… I think there will be. And I have a rotation of lucky socks. Really, all of my knee high socks are lucky and sassy. WIN.
Somebody had a good night! Yay! Love the socks! I seriously need to get more knee high socks. I have a fear that will lead to as much of an addiction as my purchasing running gear…there is no limit! Have a great weekend Amy!
Love your lucky socks!!
I hope that your date went well!! I will keep my fingers crossed.
Psh how could you NOT get lucky in those socks?
hehe
And YAY for caffeine by coworkers!!!
