Sunday Morning Coffee Talk

Grab a mug and let’s chat

summer

What is on my mind today? My favorite time of year. Yeah, you might be saying isn’t it always summer there? Well, it is and it isn’t. The concept of “summer” no matter your age still imparts the giddiness of school kids to people. Plus summer also corresponds with south swells which means there are waves close to my house for surfing. Cheeee-hoooo!! Let’s kick it off with Dove Shack!!!!

“I ride with the
I slide with the
Loccs and doggs from the LBC
All of the hoes wanna kick it with me
‘Cause I run with Warren G
Braid your weaves bustaz and G’s
Water balloon fighters
Low riders, and east siders
All come around
To hear the Dove Shack G Funk sound
All come around
To kick it in my town
Yeah

Let me hear you say ooh ahh
Summertime in The LBC
Ooh ahh
Summertime in The LBC”

    At the end of July, my leetl sesstra is getting married three days before I turn 30, and this Friday I start my new career as a librarian so this summer is a big deal for me! Stress city, stress stress city…

    • June 19, 2016 at 11:14 am

      I am soooo proud of you!! I can’t wait to hear adventures of a librarian!

    • June 20, 2016 at 9:58 pm

      It’s a big end of the month for you! Yea on your new beginnings 🙂

    Congrats on the new job Onderria! I hope you love it. My husband and I are kicking off a road trip Tuesday: first to Tucson, AZ to visit my best friend, then Kalispell, MT to see my dad, and finally Coeur D’Alene, ID to stay with my sister. All in 2 weeks…Woo!

    When we get back, we’re seeing a live show of our favorite podcast (Welcome to Nightvale), and going to Harry Potter World at Universal Studios for my 33rd birthday. We’re also taking a former student to his college orientation at UC Santa Barbara- he’s house/cat sitting for us while we’re gone, and this way we get to spend a couple days in Santa Barbara too.

    Finally, I’ll be traveling to San Jose at the end of July for a conference of the California Teachers Association. Then it’s back to work teaching August 10th, so in between all this I’ll be planning my courses! And I am currently panicking just looking at this itinerary…all I wanna do on my break is lay in bed all day and read, haha!

      Thanks guys! Your summers all sound like fun!

      Erin, your summer sounds busy but great! I’ve driven through Coeur D’Alene several times, and it’s a beautiful area. Have fun at HP!!!!! That’s on my list of stuff I’d love to do, but 4 movies in and my boyfriend still isn’t a HP fan. Tell me how San Jose is–that’s where I’m taking online classes from.

    • June 21, 2016 at 7:38 pm

      I think I had a panic attack thinking about doing all this!

    My theatre company is performing our tour this Summer, so I’ll be outside enjoying the sunshine at various parks while watching our actors perform Shakespeare plays!

    • June 19, 2016 at 11:14 am

            I am just so excited for you! I wish I could watch you perform but… wouldn’t that be SUPER stalkerish? You would be like “Who is that crazy lady dressed head to toe in subscription box stuff and sitting on a thrown of boxes…omg…all that cat hair…it’s subscriptionista…I better call the cops!” (Don’t worry I kid, I kid)

          • June 25, 2016 at 11:21 am

      Bad Kitty, I will try to watch Jeopardy tomorrow. My favorite famous person is Ken Jennings, and he is the most-winningest Jeopardy contestant. He’s hilarious, and I love his Twitter feed! Also, his book Maphead is great.

    I am going to record Jeopardy! How cool is that?

    Congrats Onderria ! Not a small accomplishment!

    Yay Erin! Summer is the only time of year I could be a teacher! Thank you so much for all you do for our kids!

    And Holy Cow Elizabeth! Will you be in Des Moines for Shakespeare on the lawn?

    I will be going to work, in an office tomorrow, and the next day and the next day….But I do have a new puppy, and I love the long days and the beautiful weather. I will be trying to log lots of steps on my new Adidas tracker and house training the puppy.

      Hi Dayle! Right now, our tour is in South West Pennsylvania & Baltimore. I am jealous of your new puppy! Dogs are the best!

    • Erin
      June 19, 2016 at 8:24 pm

      New puppy *squeal*! What breed is s/he?

      • Dayle
        June 20, 2016 at 2:17 pm

        She is a black lab, 10 weeks old. She will be a big girl, probably 85-90 pounds. Right now I am in the tired mom stage, plus she found the cat box. Yuck! She is still small enough to get through the cat doors we put in but not for long!

        • June 20, 2016 at 2:20 pm

          Also, new lab puppy, awwwww!!! We need pics for Caturday!! (she is small enough to be a cat!)

        • June 20, 2016 at 9:59 pm

          Congrats on your new fur baby!

    • June 20, 2016 at 2:18 pm

    Jeapardy, librarian, teacher off for summer with many adventures, new puppy… Oh my! All so fun.

    I am attempting to get into better shape for our Florida vacation in late July (Anna Maria Island) while starting a new role at work (not a change I was expecting or wanting really but going to make the most of it) and then having a milestone birthday in August… not excited about that but trying to remind myself that it’s just a number and doesn’t mean anything!
