Embarrassing Apartment Moment

This morning, I put on my furry boots, pulled my hair back and got the clothes together to do some laundry. The laundry room in this apartment building is on the first floor (four flights of stairs down). I trudged down, put the laundry in and headed back upstairs to my awaiting cup of coffee. Without even thinking about it, I walked up my normal three flights of stairs and into my apartment. ONLY, it WASN'T my apartment. The couch was blue and was much too far back. To my surprise there was a fairly heavy set, middle age balding guy with glasses on his laptop. (HOLY SHIT!)

I looked at him, held up my laundry detergent and said, "Oh my Gawd! I am sooo sorry". He smiled ear to ear. Fucking Great Jen. It takes a lot to embarrass me, but sometimes I do a REALLY good job ALL BY MYSELF! Go figure. lol

Speed Dating R Us

On Tuesday (I think) my buddy Penny n' I went Speed Dating at the Urban Wine Co. downtown. I must say this was a first for me and thought it would be VERY entertaining. Entertaining, it was! First, you must know that a good portion of the guys there were cat owners. I have nothing against cats, or the single men in their thirties that own them; I just think it is weird. It is weird when a guy you are 'speed' dating chooses this as one of the important things in his life that he must share with you. Agreed? If I ever speed date again, I think I should take a handful of these key chains with me. "Real Men Love Cats"...I just don't like real men apparently. lol Bring on the 'fake' men that drink beer, and like puppies!

When Penny asked cat guy #3 how he liked to spend his weekend evenings, he replied with 'cat burritos'...yes I said cat burritos. Cat guys #3 proceeded to explain how he doesn't go out, but usually just wraps his cat up in a blanket like a burrito, at which point if he didn't do it fast enough then Muffy, his cat, would swat him with her paw.

The turn out for the event was pretty decent, I suppose. There were a total of thirteen guys, the conversations felt somewhat like awkward job interviews, at which point I would just ask a random question. Randomosity entertains me, what can I say? They give you a list of the guys there and you are supposed to jot down a fact or two about them to give you something to remember him by. I thought you'd be entertained by my list, so I am posting it!

SWIM-Urban Decay- Omaha Fashion Week Showage

Yesterday was INSANE. But good! It began with a day at work. (It was so slow) The day dragged. Then came Cierra's swimteam trials. The video was taken with my phone SO it is REALLY blurry. She is in the second lane.

Then I headed BACK to work where Kim Fabulous was visiting from Urban Decay. Then Kim, Penny and I headed downtown for the Omaha Fashion Week Boutique show. Such a good time! Thanks Penny Pen for making it happen!
