Work, work, work!

I feel like that has been the theme lately in the Brummer household. Friday night I worked with Aaron at Redhead - I was the "floater," meaning I got waters for tables, bused tables, did whatever the servers needed, etc. Then Saturday morning/afternoon, Aaron and I worked there again for a private graduation party, this time I served drinks and bused tables, etc. Then last night, I filled in as a server for the first time - it was a really busy night! We started out fairly slow - I had one or two tables at a time, then 7 pm hit and we got so busy! I think I had five tables going at one point, which is a fairly overwhelming for the first time serving! It's really fun for me to work at the restaurant though, because I get to learn all about the restaurant business. Anyway, it was a good night and I was really tired when I got home! I tried to go to bed when I got home, but I could not fall asleep for many reasons: 1. I smelled. And I could smell myself. 2. My legs were throbbing 3. My mind kept running all the night's specials through my head : "Maple braised pork ribs with blah blah blah." It was like my brain was trying to memorize all the specials exactly as they were on the board! 4. I drank Diet Pepsi all night when I was working - dumb. So it was not the most restful night, but thank goodness for the long weekend! Poor Aaron, he still had to get up for work at five this morning. Again, back to the work theme... :)
Hope you all have a happy Memorial Day weekend!

Finals are done!

Well, they were done yesterday, but I am just now getting around to blog... :) I had my pharmacology final on Friday, then yesterday I had my pros final in the morning and radiology in the afternoon. Today I just had to show up for clinic in the morning, but I wasn't scheduled for a patient so I got to leave. I have 10 out of my 12 requirements done for clinic, so I'm a low priority for scheduling. I think they have a hard time scheduling the D2 clinic, which is sad because it's free! However, I understand how annoying it would be to have to come multiple times just to get a couple fillings done. Anyway, I had the afternoon off, so I worked out, did a little studying for tomorrow's endo class, and then hung out with Aaron. It's nice to be done with tests for awhile - nice to have a life again! I have six more weeks of class left, but there are only a few more tests - one next week and then a few at the end of the six weeks. One of the classes, esthetic dentistry, is only a lab once a week where we are just graded on the project we do that day - no tests! We are pretty excited about that one.
Anyhoo, I don't have class on Thursday or Friday - hurray! On Thursday I am getting a massage and facial, courtesy of my lovely husband in celebration of being done with finals! Thanks babe! Then on Friday I am heading up to Cedar Falls to hang out with my madre for the day - should be fun! Saturday morning I want to work outside a little, clean up the front yard since now it's warm enough to plant some flowers. Should be a good weekend! Hope you all have a great week!

What a sweetheart!

Aaron may kill me for posting this, but I just had to share my excitement! So last night Aaron and I were out at Target and I saw this dress there that I really liked. They had my size in black, but I really liked the blue color. So I decided that I would look online and see if I could maybe order it in blue - when I checked, it said that it would take 4-6 weeks before it would even ship! So I gave up on the dress, but I was still kind of sad because it was a cute dress!
Today I got home from school and sitting on the couch was the dress in blue and a coordinating little bag from Target! I don't know how Aaron found it, but he did! So sweet... Thanks babe!
Here's a pic of the dress...
