+Fun fact: I played soccer for 13 years. However, I have no interest in the World Cup and the bandwagon jumpers are kind of annoying. There's many people who talk about it just because it seems to be popular/politically correct conversation right now. Kind of like how everyone gets all riled up about the Olympics.
+One of my high school friends went to Comic Con in Philadelphia last week. She had her picture taken with Shane. I mean, Jon Bernthal. I'm pretty jealous.
+I really hope this doesn't make me seem like an elitist snob, but a Denny's restaurant just opened up where we used to live. On the Facebook group for the spouses at Ft. LW, there's lots of conversations about this Denny's. People talking about how the food is good, the food isn't good, the prices are too high, the service is bad, etc. I mean, it's a Denny's. The word "excited" keeps getting thrown around. They're a chain restaurant. They're pretty much the same everywhere. Also, they have them at almost every exit off the interstate in Missouri.
Or maybe I'm just an elitist-Blair-Waldorf-wannabe-snob. Or maybe not. It's a Denny's for goodness sakes.
+I spent 2 1/2 weeks looking for the box with our blender, a bunch of dishes, and half our knife set. Oh-em-gee. I just about lost my mind over this one. I was convinced that someone had stolen one cardboard box off the trailer when Scott stopped for gas or something and that it was THAT box. I was ready to buy a new blender. I had to make my margaritas in the knock-off Magic Bullet last weekend.
I found the box on Tuesday and now I feel like my world is coming together.
+Once upon a time, I took several college credits in Alaska. The transcripts started rolling in this week. Ah, memories.
Some may call him "terrible human being". I call him "no-nonsense".
+I went to a Pilates class on Tuesday. This was the first time in 18 months. I wasn't avoiding it; I just couldn't find one in Missouri. They offer them on the base here for $3, and you can't beat that.
Anyway, after 18 months of no Pilates classes, I've actually gotten much better. I mean, I was ADVANCED. How crazy is that? Two and a half years ago, I couldn't bend over and touch my toes. A year ago, I couldn't do a proper roll up. I credit Robin at The Balanced Life for keeping me on track!
+Scout and Jett went to the vet on Monday. Scout had a traumatic experience when they drew blood for a heart worm test and then he hid under the chairs.
+I can't say I had the amazing experience at the vet that I was expecting. After all, their website is so well done and I'd had that good experience at the dentist last week (not that dentists and vets are related…). But after being charged waaaay too much money and being sold $50 of probiotics for my dog, I think I might be in the market for a new vet. I gave those probiotics right back. I've never paid more than $60 for a trip to the vet. And I'd appreciate being told how much things cost as they are throwing them at me…not just giving me an obscene total at the end of the visit.
Jett has one more vaccination to get in a few weeks (which will probably cost an entire paycheck, if the pattern continues), and then I think we're done there. Sorry, Fountain Creek Vet. I cannot give you a stamp of approval.

+I'd tell you all that my brothers' birthday is today (and Happy Birthday to them!), but they don't read my blog and you don't know them…so.…gift cards are on the way, boys. However, I just mailed my dad's Father's Day gift yesterday, so…there's that.
Well, this was a nice, boring Stuff and Things. Got anything to share?
