Day #2 of Having 31 Teeth

Despite the pain, inability to barely open my mouth and constant headache, I think I had a pretty good day.

Taylor’s Recovery from Wisdom Tooth Extraction Diet:

  • A Cozy Shack Sugar-Free Pudding
  • Hummus
  • Cup of coffee ice cream
  • Arroz Caldo (Steven and I made it!)
  • Coldstone milkshake
  • Mac n Cheese
  • Mashed potatoes

And for some odd reason, I’ve been getting lightheaded pretty easily so we just spent the day at the theaters. We saw Crazy, Stupid Love (Ape, I thought of you the entire time!!) and Winnie the Pooh. Now, we’re at home watching Machete – I would not recommend it. Just listening to the movie as I type is making me wanna hurl.

Unfortunately, I have to go to work tomorrow at 8. I’m gonna bring my hummus and some soft fruit to work tomorrow. Can’t keep living off of milkshakes. ( ) ’_’ ( ) 

For the first four days of working, I took at least one wrong turn each day on my way to work. And not to mention, I live 2.3 miles away. But to my satisfaction, for the past two days I’ve been able to drive around the OC without the use of my navi. *Pat on back*

During my consistent 18 days of living in this area, I’ve concluded a few things I need to maximize my life here:

  • Some white friends who own boats so I can sail around the harbor and wear my Sperry’s out of necessity and not fashion.
  • A work-out buddy. Don’t get me wrong, I actually like the feeling after working out and feeling good in my body but I get so bored. I need a friend out here to make it fun yet rewarding.

Basically this is a classified ad for a friend disguised as a tumblr post. Sad.

Anyway, I finally have a day off tomorrow (thank God … literally) and will be spending it at the beach. 

Definitely enjoyed my first day off.

I went to Target and got a bunch of fun stuff, some of which included: a frame for my desk to put a picture of Steven and I, blister band aids and friction block for the grossest blisters of my life, mints (since I can’t chew gum at work), a toiletry bag and finally got my ledger (cannn’t wait to fill it out … hopefully not too much!) and a new Essie nail polish!

I also got my nails done at The Nail Lounge (loooove!) and finally found something at Panera that I actually liked.

Days off are heavenly!

Worked from 6:30 a.m.-8:30 p.m. with only an hour break in between. That’s FOURTEEN hours!!!! I was on my feet ALL day.

Came home to soak my feet until tomorrow begins all over again at 6 a.m.

On a side note, come to Fashion Island this weekend and shop with me, please! It’ll be nice to see a familiar face 🙂

Buona notte.

First day of work.

  • Worked from 8 a.m.-5:45 p.m.
  • Steven & Auntie MaryAnn visited me for lunch 🙂
  • Did EVERYTHING. 5 p.m. rolled around quick.
  • Got my 33% discount activated. ASIJFOIJWEOIFJWEIOFJ =D
  • Cece, the Department Manager (DM) had a cutie notepad and pen for me to put on my desk! Can’t wait to personalize it a bit. I was afraid I wouldn’t have a need for Office Depot or Target anymore…hah! Pens, post-its and more, here I come!
  • Learning about newborn, preemie, little girl, little boy, big girl, big boy sizes and brands. WOW -_-
  • We have the softest baby blankets in the WORLD. I’m gonna buy one for me. Retails at $99. 
  • Note to all my friends: you might want to start making babies because I am so excited to shop for babies. I’m gonna spoil Little Torres!!!
  • Tomorrow, instead of coming in at 8 a.m., I gotta go in at 6:30 a.m. (with no OT…the life of working on salary).

Ready for Day 2.

Big Girl Decision #2: Take after my dear friend Kathlyn Wolpin and buy a ledger from Office Depot. Going to document every single purchase from today onward. We’ll see how this goes…

Love,

Big Girl Tay 🙂
