Wow, let me tell you how much I love waking up 10 minutes late on a Monday morning realizing there's a good four or five inches of snow on my car that I wasn't planning on having there. I was already running way behind (I usually never sleep in and since I don't my morning is on a very set schedule and I know what I need to be doing down to the minute) Anyway, so I finally roll into work about two minutes before we're supposed to open and I'm the first one there. I guess everyone else had the same surprise as I did. So I worked for my usually 3 hour shift on Monday, it was busy but nothing significant happened just very spoiled members coming in asking to do stuff that's not in my job description haha just kidding not all the time. I then headed off to school. Earlier I got a text from a girl in one of my classes, she's in a group project and said she was sick and wouldn't be able to make it. Well, I was sitting in class and got another call from the other member of our group saying he wouldn't make it either. Anyway, back to my first class the professor split us in groups and had us present what we discussed in front of the class. I got stuck in an all guy group one of which was leaning over me and invading my personal bubble from behind another one who sat next to me put his arm behind me on my chair and smelled like girl's perfume. He kept trying to talk to me and I talked back, but in the back of my head I wanted to be like hey dude sweet perfume I have the same brand. I decided that might not be the best idea so I was nice. So, I finished with that class and went onto the one where I was alone. Luckily my professor lectured most of the time and I must say I took some excellent notes haha. Let me just skip to my day now. I just got home I've been watching the extremely pathetic(on the Wizards part) Jazz game and thinking I really need to work more on my homework then update this, but I thought all of my fabulous readers needed a peek into the life of KayCee Burnside on a Monday. I know it's so amazing and a fabulous life so there you have it, my March 31, 2008 day in a nutshell.
I"m sitting in my room about to start on three 10 page papers and a group presentation analysis when my wonderful little dog walked in soaked from going outside in the rain. Of course I had to stop and put her in a blanket and of course she wants to sit on my lap and not the bed. So now I'm typing this petting her instead of doing all that other fabulous stuff. But I decided today she could ask me for anything and she'd get it (well most other days this is the case but especially true today) So, this morning around 9:30 am I hear my name very faintly I wondered what was going on because usually no one has to wake me up I just do on my own. I got up to see what was wrong when I see my dog standing at the bathroom door anxiously looking in. As I'm about to walk past and tell her to calm down I hear my name again coming from the bathroom. It's my little sister Chalice. She had gotten in the shower at 9:00 blacked out soon after that and had been laying on the floor until I got her. My parents ended up taking her to the doctor they think it's something wither her stomach, she's had problems before and supposedly there's a nerve in your stomach that if you have severe enough pain it can cause you to faint. They also said it's a slight chance of appendisitus. She's home now with a prescription to hopefully help her and hopefully everything will be just fine. However, it amazes me how aware dogs can be. You hear stories all the time of them barking for their owners when somethings wrong. Chalice even said to her go get KayCee and Sam tried pawing at my door but it was shut and she couldn't open it. I think however that's what started waking me up then I finally again heard my name. It's crazy how aware she is and can sense when somethings not right. Even when Chalice got into bed Sam jumped right up and was trying to lick her face to make her stop crying. Anyway, that is why I love my dog and she knows I love her and will do anything she wants me to.
Well, another Saturday has come and past I might as well tell all who reads this about it. First, it consisted of me waking up at 8:30. I don't consider myself someone who really sleeps in but the fact that I had to get up wasn't all that fabulous. Needless to say I did to go to my fabulous job at Deseret First Credit Union where I knew I had a fun filled day of telling people they couldn't do things through a drive-up express window that most normal people would know you could not do. For example, I've been asked more then once if they can open an account at drive-up. I just want to stop right there and be like are you really serious? Who knows what goes through their minds all I know is we have some very spoiled members. Enough about that however it did pretty much take my entire morning and part of the afternoon. Anytime I have to close it's my goal to get out of there in 10 minutes, my boss gives us 30 minutes to close up. Well this time was a record breaker we got out of there in 6. So, after that I decided I needed to spend a little time shopping all by myself. I had already been to Fashion Place Mall earlier that week and couldn't find anything so I went out to South Towne. After I got there I realized I wasn't in the mood to walk around the entire place so I parked by my favorite stores and just went into a few. I tried on some swimming suits.....yeah we'll just say bad idea......but I ended up buying a pair of tan capris and silver/white/black blouse and my favorite store Maurices. I need an outfit for the Awards Banquet I'm going to on Wednesday and seriously every black dress I try on.....again just bad idea....but I have the hottest silver/black/white shoes so I need a matching outfit. I have put the entire outfit together, but I will tomorrow and let you know how it goes. After that I went home talked to my mother for a little bit then realized I needed to run some errands. I was in desperate need of gas and knew my car wouldn't make it anywhere I had to go tonight and I had to pick up my prescription so I can finally get my allergies in control so I can actually breathe. Forty bucks later in gas and twenty in a copay after realizing my insurance had to pay over $100 for it I went back home. I decided to call my grandmother and after talking with her she invited me and my mother for a very nice dinner at Souper Salad. My father and sister were just coming home so they came too. After that I had to run to Joanns to get a gift for bachelorette party I was going to later. I know you're thinking....Joanns??? Well it was an inside joke what I got and I don't really feel like typing it all out now needless to say it was funny. I then ran home and got all changed and met at a friends house to go party it up. We went to this....I don't know a good adjective for it...small?? mediterranean place for dinner, not something I'd normally choose and then back to the girls house for everything else that goes on at that sort of a party. Anyway, it was a fun night and busy day and I didn't get a bit of homework done. I have to get up early to prepare my sunbeam lesson and do my thousands of hours of homework. I took a pic when I got home and so you can see what I sort of looked like (keep in mind this was taken at about 1:00 am and I was a little tired) Well until next post.
In case some of you don't know this is my dog Samantha Bo Burnside, we usually refer to her as Sam. I'm sure anyone who is reading this has heard about her if you even have met me because I treat her like my kid and I talk about her all the time. So, I find it fitting to blog about her the very first night I create this fabulous blog. I've had her for about 12 years and she's around 13 now. I was thinking about her because she was in my room looking at me with her big brown eyes then she looks up at me one more time and runs out. I feel we have our own little language. Now I know people are going to think I'm insane saying that, but I think it's true. I've told people this but I look at her sometimes and I'll be talking totally expecting her to talk back and oh boy that would be an extremely scary thought of what she'd say back to me that's been building up after all these years. Anyway, there's day's I come home and think nothing else could possibly go wrong and that's the moment she comes running towards me her tail wagging and makes me feel like she's been waiting all day just to do that. Of course I forget everything that's gone wrong for those two minutes I'm petting her. Truely there are some days I don't know what I would do without her. Anyway, I was reading on the news today and someone's dog wandered onto the freeway and while someone did pick it up they threw it off an overpass. I was so sad I couldn't believe someone could do something so horrible. I've loved dogs my whole life and I feel bad when I yell at Sam for doing something bad let alone dream of torturing a dog like that. Especially after I worked last year lobbying for the animal torture bill did I truely realize what happens to animals everyday that goes uncared about. Now I'm not some PETA member, but it just breaks my heart hearing stories like this. Wow, that one was long figures I was talking about my baby. Anyway, I'll be done with my random spill for the night.
Alright, so after much peer pressure, here I am in the blogging world. Now since I've helped create a few I hope you all don't expect some masterpiece, although you know anything I touch is haha just kidding. Anyway, the real story is my family ditched me on a Friday night and this sounded like a better option then homework or watching the NCAA basketball playoffs. The coolest part about this is I can sit home in my pajamas with a diet coke on my own bed and write stuff that people halfway around the world can find through a google search about some random topic I may talk about on here and yet I'll never meet them or let alone even know they visited. Crazy stuff anyway enjoy!
As I sit here on a Friday night all alone with my dog.....I wonder what should I be doing in my life right now. I hung out with my sister and her friends at the Utah gymnastics meet (which we killed BYU in by the way). I also worked today and thought about doing some homework (keyword there is thought). Now, if you think about it, these are all good things. However, I wonder should I be doing something else. Do I need to actually be doing homework? Do I need to be out finding a boy to date? Or am I just going completely crazy and there's nothing wrong being 20 and hanging out with the cutest dog on the planet. Anyway......it's just a thought I had on this eerily peaceful Friday.....we'll see how the rest of the weekend goes.
