I just die reading everyone’s Awkward and Awesome Thursdays, so I figured it was about time to link up myself!

Awkward:
-Rediscovering my LiveJournal, Xanga, MySpace, Webshots, and PhotoBucket from middle and early high school. Shoot was that embarrassing. I was an awkward, awkward kid.
-The other day I saw the cutest thing on the commuter rail: a little girl going to work in the big city with who I assumed was her grandpa. I gushed at them all morning and then they were on my train on the way home too. Only then did I hear her refer to him as “Daddy” over and over. Now I have much older parents as well, but this guy? If he’s her dad, he must have become a father at about 77!
-I’ve been using the same Almay eyeliner for years (the brand and color, not the same stick!), and only yesterday did I discover that there is a sharpener on the other end. So many eyeliners wasted.
-Complaining to all of my roommates and our relator that I was given the wrong set of keys to my new apartment. Only to find out that they do in fact work and I am just incompetent.
-Our server at a restaurant asked if I was excited about starting college. As in going for the first time. No ma’am, I graduated college eight months ago.
-My dad helping my roommates and I paint the new place, shirtless. In front of my roommates. And their families. Woof.

Awesome:
-Commuting from home for these few weeks means I get to be a little kid again… my mom drives me to the train, packs me lunch, AND if I’m lucky a dinner too 🙂 What a woman.
-Hearing that I successfully got the Lilly Pulitzer dress from my Rue La La “Still Want It” list! HUGE thanks to Little Miss Southern Love for the tip that SWI actually works!
–Rendez-vous New England this weekend!
-Retail therapy: nothing more soothing.
