  • Today would've been my Lola's 92nd Birthday. I still think about her a lot and I'm still able to have a good cry when I think about her and how much has changed since she left. Michelle, Scott, and I had a shot for her. Anywho, Happy Grandparent's Day :)
  • Everytime I log onto this blog, I squeeze my eyes just to see how far I am behind on blogging. I'm four days behind. But that goes to show how EXHAUSTED I am when it comes to full time work and just wanting to sleep. 
  • So my car went into the shop on Wednesday. Sadly, Autoport couldn't detect the issues that were leading to my Check Engine light being on so they had to direct us to a dealership. The dealership found that the not only were the  four coils (which autoport did detect were an issue, but just one) were an issue including the catalytic converter was burning out. This brought up to over $1500, then the guy calls me the next day that he fucked up on the price since he only told me the price of one coil instead of all four and it turned out to be $2000. OMG! I know that I should get ready to make another savings for another car. 
  • Since I started working two jobs during the week and Jon with his work and Grad school, we haven't seen much of each other lately. Luckily Jon visited me after my second attempt at the CBEST yesterday. We had Boudin's and he dropped me off at the Fashion Valley Transit Center so I could catch the trolley to Qualcomm. 
  • FITNESS UPDATE: In between the test and seeing Jon, I was able to stop by the ARC and worked out for over an hour and saw that I was down several more pounds. Making that since I started this weight loss journey I've lost 10lbs. :) But don't worry about Boudins, I had a Mediterranean salad.

Late 193

  • I found this awesome recipe for Coconut Milk Ice Cream. But the recipe calls for an Ice Cream Maker. I don't have one, but I don't think I can bother doing the one where you check up on the ice cream every 30 minutes. 


  • went to Autoport since i discovered that my right passenger tire had a flat. I tried to put air in it last night, but when I got home I realized that it was still flat. Afraid that my parents may sick the payment of this one on me, they surprising agreed. So I mostly spent my day at home waiting for my car to be finished. They also checked my alignment and rotated my tires and now my car glides with ease, something I was hypersensitive to on the drive home the day before being aware of the flat. =/
