Awkward and Awesome Thursday!

Hey, look! It’s actually Thursday.  Pretty awesome, right?  Go me!

Awkward

• Meeting relatives I haven’t seen since I was a kid.  Instantly remembering them.  They instantly remember me.  We hug; we reminisce. They say, “You’ve grown up so much!  You’re so beautiful!  I remember you were so tiny and beautiful as a child.”  On and on and on.  Then five minute into the conversation they say something like, “And how is Deanie?” or “When does Deanie leave for Europe?”  And there’s a moment where we’re both confused.  And then we both realize that they thought I was a different cousin.  Oh.  (This happened twice in about a half an hour.)
• This conversation at New York and Company:

Me: Do they have a NY&Co. in England?

American NY&Co. Employee: I don’t know.

British NY&Co. Employee: No, they don’t unfortunately.

                        Me: Oh.  That sucks.

                        Brit: Yeah, it does.

                        Me: Is that why you moved to the States?

                        Brit: …

            Obviously my humor is not for all.

• Going to pet my neighbor’s dogs and having them drool all over my TOMS.  Good thing those can go in the wash easy-peasy.

Awesome

• Filming a mini teaser trailer for our webseries.  You may be asking what this webseries is since I haven’t mentioned it yet.  That’s because I’m usually hesitant to discuss plots, etc. of projects I’m working on, or to post things I’ve written (it’s a whole copyrighted thing I don’t need to get into).  Hence, this may be the first time you’ve heard me mention a webseries.  Well, I’ll let you Google the word and then use your imagination.  We filmed a trailer on Saturday morning and it was loads of fun.  I can’t wait to shoot actual episodes.
• Bird Nerd Alert! Getting to hold our brand new kestrel for a SANC program.  She was so adorable and chirped when I went to pick her up.  Too cute!  Also, getting to sit outside in the beautiful sunshine with Barley, the barn owl (see picture).  She’s alway up for a photo shoot. J
• Tenderloin steak on the grill with grilled potatoes and zucchini.  *drools* 
• I know it’s not until tonight but…HARRY POTTER 7.2 IS COMING TO THEATRES TONIGHT AND OMGKJKLJKDLDSKFSDFSD I AM SOOOOO SUPER EXCITED.  WHEW.

Hope you had an awkward/awesome week!  Also...
