What a week last week was! It was rough trying to get back into my normal routine. I think I have finally recovered from my vacation so this week I am going to try and get back to normal.
The week started off slow, but I have a lot more goals I need to complete in the next few weeks so I am going to be busy…which is what I like.
I got some fun swag from work this week! I love my infuser water bottle and the umbrella is massive. It would have been helpful in Europe.
On Monday night I went back to the Trocadero, this time to see Jurassic Park!
I love dinosaurs and seeing it on the big screen was fun! We got noodles in Chinatown for dinner beforehand.
At lunch on Tuesday I attempted to go get a PA license. The line was insane. When I got there they were on number 94 and I grabbed number 30! I left because there was no way I could be out of work that long. I asked my boss if I could possibly come in a little late the following morning. They opened at 8:30am and I decided to be the first one in line.
It worked! It was a weird process. You went to one room to give them all your paperwork. You had to look into a machine to check your eyesight and then you went to another building to take your picture and get the license printed. I was only 15 minutes late to work too!
At lunch I went and got my title changed, new registration and new plates. This changing states is expensive!
On Wednesday at lunch I decided I REALLY needed a car wash. I found a 24-hour automated place which I had never seen before.
You just put in the wash you want and pay, then you pull inside until it tells you to stop and the machine goes around your car and washes it! It was pretty cool and cheap for $8. They also had vacuums outside so I finally cleaned out the sand in my car from Assateague.
On Friday I helped a coworker with a project. He had to videotape making a back-to-school sandwich. This one was Curious George.
How cute!
On Friday night I went with some friends on a full moon hike on the Wissahickon. It was for kids so I figured it would be pretty easy, but it was rough! I kept thinking I was going to fall because it was so dark out. We survived though and then got drinks after.
On Saturday I went with Kier and Eric to Saint Benjamin Brewing Company, which is next to their apartment.
The place was really cool. You got 5 samples for free! I got a growler after of my favorite beer, Wit or Witout. They are building a tasting room above the brewery which is exciting!
I went home after and started writing all my cruise blog posts. I figured I would blow through all of them this weekend so I wouldn’t have to worry about them. Boy was I wrong. It has been taking me forever to go through the images, edit them, and write the post. I have a few done, but I have a lot more work to do!
At least I have been able to watch more Mad Men while I worked.
Get ready for cruise blog posts! Have a great week :)
