After lots of worries – mainly just me being strange, I was able to reserve the hall Madhujit and I wanted for our wedding reception. It is the Ward Pavilion of the local Metroparks. We looked at it and it meets our needs of what we are looking to deal with for a wedding reception. It is air-conditioned ( A must in August!) and we can choose the caterer and provide our own alcohol…. I must remember tequila because my uncle made a request. Otherwise, nothing else is really new…. A recommendation – if you look into the metroparks as a place to hold any type of function, consider joining the metropark as a member and you recieve 20% the rental cost!

Happy Sweetest Day Babu!
Though Sweetest Day is a hallmark holiday, I would like to let Madhujit know how special he is to me. A day is not right if I do not get to see his face or hear his voice. He simply makes me happy when I am with him.
He is so very awesome!

Long Weekend to Enjoy
I have a 3 day weekend this week and so far it has been enjoyable. I love reading and I read 3 novels yesterday. Today I made a brunch before we went to the airshow. Felicity came to brunch- I was good to see her… She cut her hair– she had long beautiful blonde hair– it looks good now to, but it was a big difference. Then Madhujit and his parents, John and I went to the airshow. It was nice if you like planes. We saw airforce 1 land. Madhujit took lots of pictures! Tomorrow we are going to eat at the Indian buffet ( it is a 2 hour drive in which we try to get lost in michigan– that is how we find it! )
I need to look at the schedule of the Michigan ren fest to see when we want to go.

Miracle Shoes? Air show this weekend
as many people know I work as a pharmacist, and I stand for long periods of time ( today almost 14 hours ) well I invested in a part of good shoes. I did some online research and ended up with Drew Shoes. They are not the prettiest shoe, nor are the the ugliest shoe, but my feet did not have the aches that normally accompany a long day at work (fatigue was there, but duuh– I stood for 14 hours!). Another thing is I am not sure they are the shoes. I also purchased a pair of support socks from Life Uniform and wore those for the first time today too. For all I know, it could be the combination of the shoes with the socks.
You can get Drew shoes from a small store in Toledo called Heel and Toe ( it is right across from St. John’s High School).
Madhujit is big into airplanes and it is Toledo’s anual air show this weekend. Madhujit and I will be attending on Saturday I think. They are not my particular cup of tea, but hey, I need to be supportive of his hobbies.

Discoing at the Zoo, St. Adalbert’s 10 year reunion, and shopping — a filled, fun weekend
Everyone is zooing it — the Toledo’s Zoo slogan is true – Friday night we (Madhujit and I, his parents, busia, my mom and John, Kelle and John, my Aunt Debbie and Uncle Dennis, and others) attended the disco party at the zoo. It was a fun, sold out event. Busia was shaking her thing– but she had complaints of hurting feet the next day. Mukul, Madhujit’s dad was also pretty groovy. ( I took all of these other people with me because I LOVE to dance and Madhujit does not want to ever dance with me so I had others to dance with). I must say– we attended a few zoo parties and each one was well done — the zoo plans pretty great events. They are having a luau on Sept. 4th. You can call the zoo at 419-385-5721, ext. 3094 if you want to attend. I am working so Madhujit and I cannot make it.
Well it is was hard to believe that it has been 10 years since I graduated from St. Adalberts. But we celebrated yesterday with a mass and then with a small dinner of pizza and cake. Fr. Marek donated St. Adalbert pens to the event. A sad thing that I learned is that St. Adalberts will no longer have any more festivals… they have not made a lot of money in the past couple of years so they decided not to have anymore. If anyone has any ideas of what they can now do to make money, let me know.
Today I went out to breakfast with my mom and John and his sister and some others of his family. Then I ended up at Madhujit’s and we went to the Hindu Temple for a little bit with his parents ( it is Indian Independence Day today). I also got some neon tetras today. My 10 gallon fish tank only had fish in it that would hide, so I wanted some fish that would stay in the open — otherwise it looked like I had a 10 gallon decorated tank with no fish in it.
I still need to go shopping for lunch stuff — this is my long week at work – I will be working Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday– to most it is only 5 days — but it is a lot because they are 12 hour days.

More will be coming after the 30th.
I am extremely busy right now, studying for the naplex, so I have been neglecting other parts of my life, including this… I will try to write on a more regular basis once I pass the tests, of course about pharmacy and related health issues… have a great day
