Monday Monday

Julia just left.

I am sad.

But before we get to that, I'll review this weekend: On friday I met a fitness goal - wahoo. And then on Saturday we had a little farewell for Julia at Peanut Butter and Co, which was delicious.

How cute is this?

Then we read from our memory jar and had our last little "family time," it was very sad. On Sunday we had a linger longer - barfskies, and then today we went to S'mac, Shake Shack, saw Obama, and she left.

I held it together until I saw that she had put a funny picture over my bed, which is something I normally do to her - and then came the tears. I guess I'm not a robot like I always thought. Jason texted me after she left saying, "Soo how are we doing?" That was nice of him, not that I'll ever tell him that. I started cleaning, and I was cleaning out the freezer and found this:

Julia bought me a pumpkin pie. I'm both thrilled and angered. 

So she's gone, and now it's time for part two of my NYC experience. Today I am officially halfway done with my college career, which is absolutely insane. 

Now back to lighthearted things: today we were talking about the Linger Longer (umm some girl was saying that at BYU they had an event "Have a cookie and take a lookie" I died), and there was a new guy in our ward and I think if Ned Nickerson was a real person he would look like this guy. It's ridiculous. We then started talking about Nancy Drew- and more importantly Bess and George. Let me give you Wikipedia's description of Bess:

Bess was originally described as having beautiful hair (later described as blonde), slightly plump, pretty, and blue eyed. She is very feminine, and is easily frightened when involved in Nancy's adventures. Bess believes that every crook has a good reason for committing his/her crime. Bess always fears the worst is going to happen and insists that Nancy give up several mysteries. She is somewhat flighty, fickle, and a bit of a flirt - quite the opposite of cousin George, who is more practical, steady, and very much a tomboy. Bess flirts with every cute or handsome boy she meets. Despite her fears, she is a strong sleuth in some volumes, even taking a proactive role in the capture of criminals on occasion.

Bess loves to shop, and has a weakness for food. She has an extreme love of ice cream and other desserts. In most volumes in the series, George makes at least one comment on Bess' diet. Bess, admittedly, cannot stick to a diet, no matter how she tries, and frequently talks about food. Bess often is seen involved in the same activities as Nancy, at a lower skill level, including dancing, art, music, acting, and stunt horseback riding.

I. Am. Bess. Marvin. 

Or Eleanor...one in the same.
