Café Con Monica

Tuesdays @ Two: Week 3

October 17, 2017

 

{1} 
Why do you get an email about unsubscribing when you unsubscribe? I’ve been trying to clean out my inboxes because I get a crap ton of junk mail and I keep getting emails back. Damn them! The whole point was I am over having these stupid emails in my inbox. 


{2} 
People who post relentlessly on social media about their political views should be slapped. I have a friend who its turns out is far more one side than the other than I knew about and I just want to tell her to stop with the posting because she makes herself look like a racist schmuck and I like to think she isn’t (ya know cause i’m brown and we friend)… But again…who knows who people really are? Also, please just stop with posting about politics in an effort to talk about yourself. Its annoying. 

What’s on your mind today?

High 5 for Friday!

October 13, 2017

Monday’s off always throw me off, I kept hoping it was Friday by Wednesday…but here we are!

{1} 
Books! 
I joined the Girly Book Club last month but didn’t get to make it to the meetup. I am so excited to do this month’s in a couple weeks. The book was The Alice Network by Katie Quinn. Let me tell you guys. I love loved it. Finished it in a day & half (when I should have been doing homework) 
{2}
Denver! 
I’m so excited for Denver next week that I have been compiling a list of all the fun things people recommend and I am pretty sure we will be completely exhausted by the time we get back. We already have a concert @ Red Rocks for Friday night so we just have to decide what else we really want to do. I feel like I have so much I need to get done at home and with homework before we go. I hate to leave the apartment a mess even though I live with roommates so it will likely be a mess when I get back anyway. 
 
{3} 
Weekend Fun
I was looking forward to going to see 311 at Sam Adams Octoberfest tomorrow but now the forecast says 100% chance of rain in the evening…and its cold…and I hate cold weather.  I think we are going to try and go anyway since the tickets were not cheap but I now have to figure out a cute but warm outfit and how to keep from looking like a wet poodle! 
 
OOh also having a girls night out tonight with some meetup girls! Very excited for that!

Sports Sports Sports…
The Cubs are stressing me out. For real, they barely got through last night with that win. I need them to pick it up and get their lives together. We need this World Series Win so that Thenewguy and every other Sox fan can shut up. In other sports new…my fantasy teams the last 2 weeks have sucked so bad I didn’t even win $.25. How sad is that?? 
 
{5} 
Halloween
Oye. I am usually so on top of Halloween stuff. Like costume  picked out and almost ready by Oct 1 but this year? I don’t know where the time went but I still can’t decide what I will be and where I will go. I have a friend going to a party but I refuse to pay $30 to go a B96(radio station) anything. I am also too old to be half naked because its always cold and the Cubs will probably Definitely be playing still so I would prefer a bar that will play the game.

A trip to Mexico – Riviera Maya part dos!

October 11, 2017

So I shared how and what and all that. Let me share some of the pictures of our awesome vacation!

Excurion to the Tulum & Coba ruins and a Cenote! Somehow a random beach picture got in there!

 
 
Zip Lining Adventures! 
  
  
 
 Food food food…so much food.
 
 
 
I’m terrified of fish…you should know it was not me taking this picture because I saw them and ran right out of the water. 
 
 
Lots of beach and sun 
 
 
On our last night before fancy dinner! 
 Sad and waiting for our ride to the airport…
