I woke up before 8. I kept going back to sleep because 8 is entirely too early for me.  Finally at 8, I woke up. I stayed in bed a bit. Then at 9, I went running. Dave was still sleeping. He only woke up 5 minutes before I got back.

I showered and got ready to leave.  We went to JCP for Dave to get some clothes. We spent forever shopping. We only shopped for Dave and only went to 1 store. He got new jeans, 2 shorts, 6 t-shirts, and 1 polo shirt.

Then we went to the Melt for lunch. I wasn't a huge fan. I can make things just as good or better at home. We went to Sprinkles after. I got 2 cupcakes and liked 1 a lot more than the other. Banana was really good. I'm not a huge fan of the vanilla with chocolate icing. Dave said his strawberry didn't taste like strawberries at all .

After we got home, we started watching Dexter. We watched for a few hours. I did laundry at the same time. Dave went and got Boudin's for dinner.  We watched more Dexter.  We took a quick break so Dave could play his video game but I Just wanted to keep watching straight through.

pics from before and after feeding cats

I watched a few episodes of Hack.
I had PB&J for lunch.
I walked to Target. It was the worst experience ever. There was so much traffic. It was so hot. I got so sweaty. I wanted to die. While crossing El Camino I did get whistled at twice.

I changed into my swim suit after I got back since I was so sweaty. I decided to check my email first. Well next thing I knew I was going to nap for 15 minutes. Then when that timer went off, I reset it for another 15. Repeat until it was 2 hours later. I got out of bed and changed into my running clothes then got back in bed.

At 5, Hilary and I went running.

I got home and messed with my Garmin. I showered then was out the door.

Dave came home and then we went to feed two of his coworker's cats.

Then we went to dinner. We went to a place that had fried zucchini. It looked more like mozzarella sticks.

We got home at 9:30 and Dave went right to sleep.  I messed with my Garmin more and couldn't get the data to upload at all. I manually typed in all 41 splits from the run. It'll probably eventually upload but I was afraid I'd do a hard reset and loose everything. I did a hard reset but then none of the buttons worked again so I couldn't tell what was what.

Running 10 miles sure makes me exhausted.  But I'm pretty sure I felt like the walk to Target was tougher on me than the 10 mile run.

I was up early but watched TV.

I didn't do my long run on the weekend so finally around 2 PM I set out to actually run the long run. I ran from my apartment to Steven's Creek Trail. Normally I would drive there and run on the trail. Over halfway done, I took out my phone to take a picture.   I actually completed my run. I was very impressed with myself.

After the run I had about an hour before I had to leave to meet Kylie. She went to my high school but I didn't really know her. My elementary school teachers suggested I contact her so I did and finally she got back to me and we planned to meet.  We met at Stanford Dish Trail. Man that 3 mile loop was hilly. I was out of breath from walking. We did keep a 17 minute pace though. I hadn't realized we were going so fast. I had my Garmin in my purse so I wasn't checking it as we went.  Then we went out to dinner.

I didn't realize until it was too late but the pizza place had the sauce on top of the cheese. I could barely handle all the cheese.  We talked for awhile. The pizza took forever.  I brought home a piece for Dave. I took a picture of that. He liked it.  We watched some TV together.

I woke up at 3am and stayed awake. I watched TV on my iPad in bed until 7:30 when Dave made me get up so I could drive him to work. He would bike home but didn't want to bike both ways. He also wanted to trick me into not watching TV all day.

I went to Safeway on my way home. I enjoyed how it wasn't crowded at all. I got back and watched some TV.  I ate lunch.

I went to the Post Office, Sears, and JoAnn Fabrics. When I got to the Post Office, I forgot tape to tape the address label on. I didn't tape it in advance because last time the sticker didn't fit right. I had to hand write the address on it.  Then I go to Sears to pick up my vacuum. They tried to claim I still had to pay even though I prepaid. We talked to someone else and that guy said I was right.  Then I went to JoAnn Fabrics and forgot my gift card.  So I was 0 for 3 for that trip.  I got home in just enough time to change and head out to run with Hilary. I went to recycling on the way to running. Recycling takes too much time.

The run was pretty long for me but it didn't feel nearly as bad as I was expecting. On the way home I got Wendy's.

We watched some TV. Then I watched TV on my iPad. I went to sleep near 11 PM. I can't believe how long I stayed up. I also can't believe how little I still got done based on how long I was awake.

These jeans are nice because they fit me when I'm fat, but they are also so annoying. Notice the seam in the left picture. It goes toward the front of my foot. It is so annoying. I have a few pairs of pants that the seams are off. I don't know how this is possible. If the seam is off is everyone else super annoyed like I am?  See the right picture if I tug a bit at the knee I can get it to look right.

I woke up close to 10. I didn't sleep well so I was tired. I got to entering data on my computer. Dave claims I should do something else.  Near noon Dave asked if I wanted to walk to Boudin's with him for lunch. I said no because that would require getting dressed.  He went alone but wished I would have kept him company. Once he got back I went to eat my bagel with cream cheese and our cream cheese was moldy (even though it hadn't expired yet.) So then I got dressed and went to Trader Joe's.  Man was it packed.

I came back, ate it, then went for a walk with Dave.  We went all around and went to Sprouts on our way home. We didn't have any canvas bags so we didn't plan to buy much. I saw cinnamon and sugar butter and bought it. I expect it to be quite good and can't wait to eat it. (Look they sell DeLallo's around here but look how expensive.)

Then I went back to adding data for awhile.

Dave wanted to get Boston Market for dinner. I still had leftovers to eat but I decided to get it with him since he wanted it.  After we got home,  I talked to my  mom and everyone on the phone on speaker phone.  Then I went back to adding data.  Close to 8PM, we did a google+ hangout and opened presents. That seemed to take awhile. A lot of talking was involved. I even tried on my new shirt to show them.  We were staring at the laptop for the hangout and Poly just came right over and got in the middle of it all. So we joined the hangout on Dave's phone to show everyone what Poly was up to.  I took some screen shots during the hangout. I hope we never have to open presents via Google+ hangout again. (Because I want to be together not because anything is wrong with hangout.)  After all that I talked to my mom on the phone for awhile. I think we got off close to 10pm.  (1 AM her time and she had to start cooking by 8am so she wouldn't be getting much sleep.)

Then I went back to adding more data. Here's a graph I've been making of my progress. Can you tell when I've slept? So far I have done all of 2010, 2011, and 2012 (up to where we are), and 1 month in 2009. I'm working backwards. My photo quality was poorer back then and I only took 1 picture so sometimes I can't even see my shoes or decipher what shoes they are.  It is quite sad.

Note: An article is a thing like pants, a shirt, necklace, etc. Outfits are the shirts and pants. Accessorized Outfits are the Outfit + shoes and jewelry (and maybe jacket).  Dates are what dates I've done.  I can have more than one Accessorized Outfit on a day. (Oh if I wore 2 outfits in 2010 or 2011, I don't have a second one added since I was only going by my calendar site at the moment.)

We went to Baja Fresh for lunch. I tried quacamole and sour cream on my quesadilla. I did not like it. I will just stick with dipping my quesadilla into salsa verde.  How do you eat a chicken quesadilla?

I took more pictures of the state of the apartment but it just looks like a mess. I took them in the hopes that when I'm done I can show the evolution of certain rooms.

I unpacked more stuff that was broken. Dave thought he left his bobbleheads at work so I guess it's OK that they are all ruined.

I was going to go take a nap. I was exhausted.  Instead I decided to move the bookshelf that was temporarily in the living room.  Then I even got Dave to mount it right away so we could start using it right away.  I sure don't know how to nap. 

We hung 3 pictures up. It's a start right?  (I think the 2 by the front door are too high but that's what happens when someone 6'5 hangs them I guess.)

We went to some new place for dinner, Elephant Bar and Restaurant. Since I was in the mood for PF Chang's I ended up ordering something similar. It was nowhere near as good.  The menu had calorie counts for everything. I love that so many places around here have it.  Then we went to frozen yogurt after. The dispenser was so incredibly slow that I couldn't take it and only ended up with a tiny bit. I started checking in on Yelp so I got 3 places in 1 day on my first day of checking in.  It makes me want Foursquare so maybe I'll get that one of these days.

After dinner Dave started hooking up some stuff on the computer. Poly was helping.

Then we watched some TV. Poly did too.

I had a sports bra on and tank top. I had plans of working out.  I never worked out. I made it dinner appropriate by putting on a jacket.

5.13

I was going to wake up to run with a running group but I did the math and wouldn't make it to my parents on time. I thought I could run on my own and still run and just not have the 40 min drive each way to the running group. Well I didn't run at all.

Then I was going to mow. I started to mow but after I fell twice and hit my face off the mower handle I quit. 

We went to my parents for lunch. We ordered pizza and went to a park to eat. The rain made it so we were almost the only people in the park. 

After that we hung out.  We went to Kerber's. Then my family came to my house to load the rest of Timmy's junk to take to my parents.  That took awhile. We didn't get to talk as much. 

My parents left at 7:30 then I sat there wanting to be productive. I went up to my room to clean but just used my computer. I wanted Dave and I to be productive together but he was not having any parts of it so then it made me not want to be productive. 

He came up to my room and sat there so I could work and talk to him. I like doing that. I work way better with someone around. But then he turned on Starcarft and I couldn't actually talk to him. 

I got bored with working and sat there and just stared. I wanted to take breaks to check my email but couldn't. Some book shelves are organized but the surface of my desk is really messy though.

At 10:30 we called it quits so I could check my email and then go to sleep.

My day was mainly food.
I had a bagel with cream cheese and bacon for breakfast.  I had 4 donuts and 3 munchkins for lunch.

I had a decent run in the rain.  Drying my shoes with a hair dryer is not ideal but it worked well. Now my shoes look filthy. My run took a  little longer than it should have been I'd stop and take my cell phone out of the ziplock out of the pouch to take some pictures.  Right when I started the run, it was sunny and hot. Within 3 minutes it was raining and then I was freezing.

We went to dinner with Hilary in downtown Sunnyvale.

I even wore a running outfit that I did't photograph.
The first outfit was for breakfast.  The 2nd outfit was for lounging. I put on the coat to go to "lunch" when I got my donuts.  The last outfit was going out to dinner.

I wore my new skirt and shoes.  I should have worn pantyhose. I was so hot upstairs with the window opened that I thought it was warm outside. It was not.  I also took the pictures at a sunny time. 

Shoes: Target

Skirt: F21

Shirt: Express

Jacket: NY&Co.

Necklace: Limited

I tried on a lot of old clothes. I decided to give a few things to Goodwill. I moved a few things that were too big and a few that were too small to another closet.  My closet is still too full.  I need to go through more.

Dave and I went out to breakfast.  Then we went to McGuinnis Sisters.

We woke up before 6am and I ran downstairs and took out the trash. We forgot.  We just made it in time.  Then I played on my iPad in bed for awhile.   After shopping, I napped for 2 hours.

I started off productive, but with that nap it ruined my entire day. I tried on some more clothes and didn't do much else at all.

Dave napped later in the evening. Poly napped at the end of the couch.  Then napped on Dave. Then he told her it was time to get up but before he finished his sentences she started napping under his chin.
