First order of business:

I GOT A NEW JOB!!!!


I’m going to be an Associate Production Editor at McGraw-Hill. How excited am I? Can I get a whut-whut?? 😀

I got the call last night, the official letter(s) today, and I start August 15th. YAY!

Second order of business:

Aimzy (liesandpromises) is buying my plane ticket tomorrow. YAY for trips to California!! 🙂 YAY for fun times with friends.

The house is clean, and we’re hosting life group at our house tonight. Should be fun.

Hmm, I thought I had a lot more to write. Guess not. I suppose the new job thing kind of eclipses it all, yes? 😀

Boating (Pictures)

/ friends, happy, pictures

I’d made plans to relax this evening, catch up on Harry Potter, do some laundry, give Aidan a haircut.

But then Rob IMed me and asked if I wanted to join everyone on his boat.

I’d never ridden a boat before. No way was I going to turn down this chance.

It was so much fun. I need to have a boat someday. Probably fifteen years from now or so. It was amazing! The water hitting my face, the breeze. No wonder people are so into boating. Wow.



Smiling!


My favorite picture of me from the night.


Becky on the boat.


Happy Chris and Aidan. It was Aidan’s first time as well and he loved it. Then it lulled him to sleep!


Mark looking hot. I was excited to see him, I hadn’t seen him since Chicago.


Rob.


My hair after it had been in the wind a while. I heard myself being compared to a lion….

Good times, man. Good times.

I’ve got work to do! 😀 Good night! 🙂

It Feels Like Friday

/ happy, ronni

Today should totally be Friday, don’t you think?

I got the best email today from Rob. Short and sweet, but enough to make my day. 🙂 I heart Rob!

Such a change in my mood–must be my mood-weather change. I’m actually happy now. Relaxed too. I’m thinking several factors contribute to this:

– It’s close to Friday.
– I got paid.
– I am almost caught up on all my bills!
– Major task completed as of today.
– Jaci Velasquez. Very good and uplifting music. 😀

My friends must be praying for me.

I’m back. Just did some fiddling and all is well. WOO!

It’s amazing what unplugging the router will do for a cable modem. I’m so glad Andy cut me down to one router instead of LOTS like in the past! 🙂

YAY I have broadband again!!! 😀

Yummy Feelings!

/ friends, happy, life, shopping, to do

I feel yummy today. I am not sure why. Maybe because the sun came out when I was driving to work this morning. It’s supposed to be in the 60s today, and the 70s tomorrow! 🙂

I’m almost caught up on all my email. Considering I had over thirty at some point over the weekend, this is a phenomenal feat. In my opinion, at least.

I got loads of new CDs yesterday:

Britney Spears: My Perogative Pt 1 | Import Single
Michael Jackson: Bad | Special Edition
Tori Amos: Tales of a Librarian
Tori Amos: The Beekeeper | Special Edition
atb: DJ in the Mix
atb: Addicted to Music

Yeah, I went a little bit crazy…

There was so much I wanted. DJ Tiesto for example. *sigh* If only I had all the money in the world…just… so much music!!!!

Oh well. I’ll just have to pace myself. Now I’m back in Credit Card Payoff Mode. Like, SERIOUSLY. I will have three paid off by the end of the summer, three more by December, for a total of six cards paid off in 2005. And I paid one off last week. So I guess the total for 2005 will be seven cards paid off. Can you dig it? 🙂

Should be fun. Like it’s fun to go to Best Buy with Bizzy and speak with a British accent almost the entire time. And fun to have lunch at Smoky Bones with 19,000 people from church. I always wonder what they think when they see large crowds come in. “Oooh, TIPS!” or “OH NO, WE’RE GOING TO GET SLAMMED!” Our waiter, Ryan, was cool though. He said that we made it easy on him. 🙂

And the cornbread was SO YUMMM!!!

I am so ready for 4pm. I have to get an oil change tonight and do a bit of work on The Bark. Tomorrow, I’ll copy it and have it ready for distribution. 🙂

Restless much? Oh, you bet I am.

Apparently, Chris is doing all sorts of crazy things to the house. I’m excited to seee what he’s done since I’ve been at work today.

And WOOHOO! Another reserve came in for me at the library: The First Part Last by Angela Johnson. 🙂

I have to get an oil change tonight. BORING. But at least it will be done. I’m going to one of the 10-minute places; I bet it’ll be crowded. Bugger. I need to get gas before I do anything, though! So tonight:

– Gas
– Library
– Oil change
– The Bark
– Rob (hopefully?!?)

*mentally tries to speed time up, but only for a bit*

You’d think I’d be all “WHOA! THE TIME IS GOING FAST TODAY!” Thanks to Daylight Savings Time, but I’m not that lucky. Getting use to this always takes a bit of time, but I know I’ll get used to it and love it because the days will be longer and warmer and all that good stuff.

This makes me sad.

And I want to see this. Any of you local folk up for a field trip?

‘Til later…
