I am sooo excited for the weekend to start! Especially since this week has been dragging by sooo sooo slowly. Since I have this obsession with food I will start off sharing something really cool that happened this week. Risotto is pretty much my favorite food..ever. I like it any way...Well without mushrooms (probably the only food I can not eat if I tried!)...
When we were in Vegas I had three different types of risotto... haha, yes I am obsessed! One of the best ones was at a restaraunt called Aureole at our hotel, Mandalay Bay. It was an herb risotto and probably one of the best things I had ever eaten. Dan and I couldnt get enough! Last week I decided on a whim that I would email them since it really doesnt hurt to ask so I emailed the hotel asking for what was in the herb risotto. They replied back that they would forward it to the restaraunt and Aureole would get back to me sometime later that week. I totally forgot about it actually and on Tuesday I got an email from the restaraunt with the entire recipe!! I couldnt believe it. How freakin awesome. So tonight Dan and I are going to make that with seared scallops.. I can not wait.
Right now I have overcome my laziness and have only ate out twice since Memorial Day weekend. Ive cooked for every single meal... Im so proud of myself. :) One of the times doesnt count because Dan took advantage of me when I was in a weak state (drunk) and I requested that he take me to Steak and Shake at 2 am and he was all over that! I regretted it the next day because I was on a streak! Arg lol. Yesterday was the first official day I had eaten out and me and Melissa downed a whole medium pizza at Jupiters. Im so happy I waited..that pizza was good! lol

I gotta share something creepy that happened to me.. Okay its maybe not really that creepy but for some reason this guy at my workplace totally makes me feel uncomfortable. I think that you have to listen to your gut instincts when it comes to stuff like that so I really do think Im totally spot on with this guy.
Ive been working in this building for over a year and a half and my company just rents a room out of a realtor's office building. There are builders and other people who work out of this office but Im the only employee in my office. This guy (I dont even know his name, but of course he knows mine) bugs the crap out of me every week. lol I dont mean to be mean but I would think that Ive sent enough signals to tell him to leave me alone. This is probably the first time IN MY LIFE that Ive stood up for myself and didnt laugh some weird guy off like I usually do. Thats probably why I dont feel bad actually. So yes, its a good thing for me, think what you want.
Everyday when I would pull up to work, he would come outside to get in his work truck.. I started waiting in my car until he got in his so I wouldnt have to talk to him, or I would run to my door if I didnt see him. I shouldnt have to feel this way, should I? Sometimes I think its all in my head but if someone makes you feel uncomfortable you have the right to avoid them.. I think. One time he gave me a cupcake.. isnt that weird? I dont even know him lol. Apparently he has a fiance, one of the other guys told me that.. if Dan was giving cupcakes to girls at work, I would be pissed. Thats like something your bf would do or whatever.. I dunno. Hes does many other things but whatever, Im over it. I just wish he would leave me alone. Theres like 10 or 15 that work in my building and they all talk to me or whatever, none of them are creeps! Only that guy.. I call my stalker haha.
Okay so yesterday he walks in my office and hes like "Hey Erica do you need furniture?" Me: "Nope." Hes like "Oh you dont?" Im like " Nope, I got a small house and its full." See how direct Im being? Im so proud of myself lol. He goes on telling me that his friend is having a huge sale with awesome stuff and that its this Saturday. He draws me a map of where its at, gives me directions.. Then 30 minutes goes by and he comes back with a map that he had printed out from google maps.. wtf?!?! lol He starts telling me about a table he got there that is soo awesome or whatever, trying to convince me how amazing this sale is.. um yeah I dont care. I threw the directions away. But then Im like well maybe I should give the directions to Buffy, my mother in law, since she always loves a good sale. I started emailing her and then Im like, what if this is his house and theres no sale? Like would someone actually do that?! I cancelled the email because I thought she would think I was crazy if I was like 'theres an awesome sale on saturday, and give her all the details and stuff and then be like, theres a 1% chance theres no sale and its this creepy guys' house from my work. LOL . Can you imagine? OK OK.. I know Im just paranoid but please buddy, leave me alone! lol
So if anyone really does want to go to this HUGE AWESOME sale, its off of Staley Road in Champaign in that really nice neighborhood. If it really does exist, it will be pretty cool I would think.
Tomorrow me and Dan are going to Ambers wedding in Chicago....and Im very excited to spend some alone time with Dan. I think we will be avoiding IKEA even though that’s my favorite store ever! We don’t have extra spending money so that’s probably the best idea. We will see how that goes haha. Im sure we will eat a nice lunch once we get there and get in the hot tub or something..take a nap and then get ready for the wedding at 5pm. I cant wait to see Amber, shes going to look so beautiful and I cant wait to meet her new husband! Ive never met him before so Im looking forward to that. I feel so blessed to share her wedding day with her.
