<editorsnote> Nerds, meet my buddy Lindsay. She and I met ... well, somewhere in the social space. I think we might have started talking through this site directly, then through facebook - maybe ... I'm not sure. But she's awesome. I talk to her on twitter almost every day, and she's really rad and TOTALLY a big huge animal lover. Like crazy huge!! In these series of posts she will be talking about her life and random adventures with sometimes more than two legged creatures. I guess there's only one more thing left to say ... HIT IT LINDSAY!!</editorsnote>

I can't believe I forgot to include in my last post about my 6 year anniversary with my boyfriend!! Good thing he doesn't read this site or my blog or (www.craftafarian.com) I would get in trouble ;)
I was reading over my last post to inspire this one and I realize I didn't tell you how we celebrated!
Since it was our 6th year anniversary we did 6 things to celebrate together!
1. We acquired Disney park hopper passes--we have not yet used these. We are waiting for a good day so spend ALLLL day there. Like 9a to 11pm--something crazy. David's mom's friend works there and was able to get them for us. Awesome!
2. We went out to our "favorite cheap" restaurant--they aren't very cheap but its the nicest yet moderately priced place we like to go to. We did it up with appetizer, drinks, dinner, and desert to go.
3. Star Trek!! :) First we watched Star Trek 1 at home. I had never seen it before so I was really excited. Especially because right after we went and saw the new Star Trek. So good. Spock is hot. Yes.
4. We went out to an early dinner later in the week at this new place called Iza Tapas Bar. It was quite good. The sangria was excellent! I had this mozzarella/tomato/basil/olive marmalade toast thing that was amazing. The lamb burgers were decent.
5. We purchase 6 powerball tickets just for fun. We did not win anything.
6. Finally we went to Anna Maria island with David's family for a few days just to hang out and relax on the beach. Even though it was with family, to us it was a beach trip and another excuse to celebrate. It was beautiful down there. The ocean, the beach, the sand, just everything.
After we ended up doing about 4 things I realized that we were close to 6 and so we had added the last two. It was really fun and cute to do one fun thing for every year we have been together.
My birthday is at the end of this week (July 6th--saturday) and we are planning to go to the beach again friday.
We also still have the disney tickets but they don't expire for a long time and we like to go all day like I mentioned before so it's just a matter of us both having a day off and not being exhausted and being scheduled the following day. Always about timing. With the cost of gas, parking, food, and drinks its just not worth it to waste our tickets.
Life is definitely on an upswing!! I did excellent in my veterinary tech courses and am signed up for 3 more. They are much more in depth and I'm so freaking excited for them. I can't wait to take the national exam and become certified and go on with my career. :)
David got a promotion to Service Director of the club. So a little raise, better benefits, and more consistent hours! With his new salary we are now planning a trip back to Miami. We want to stay in a nice hotel (maybe the same as last time--it was amazing!), get massages, use the spa, stay out at the beach, eat good food, and fun basketball game. David wants to go to the opening game for Miami Heat. And we will likely go to their cage free zoo again. So. Much. Fun.
See ya next time!
