Pretty Good Day!

/ books, friends, happy, life, shopping

I had a pretty good day today.

Firstly, THANK YOU for all of your good wishes and congratulations regarding my new job!!! 😀 I appreciate that you took the time to wish me well. 🙂 *feels loved*

So…. I got to work and of course, that’s always hard because when the weather is lovely; I just feel claustrophobic!!! But I managed to sneak out at lunch and take a nap in Plaza Park. That was nice; napping in the warm breeze. Mmmmm.

After work, it was great to come home and play on the internet. Ci (starrlyte) and I played on our webcams! It was sooo much fun! She is soooo darn pretty and her heart-shaped lamp is the cutest thing ever. It was a blast. Then Chris came home and we went to Fed Ex to get a package. It wasn’t what we were expecting–instead it turned out to be paperwork for my new job!!! YEAH!

We went to Easton for dinner. Ate Brio. OMG YUM. Waited forever for a table, but it was worth it. After dinner, I dragged Chris to Barnes and Noble and who should we run into there but Rob and Tyler! Heh. I was more interested in acquiring books than hanging out and crashing their thingy, so we went into the store and I got the latest Georgia Nicholson and another book called Perfect. Can’t wait to read them, but I already have a backlog of books I need to read. My writing class starts Monday! Speaking of my writing class, I’m eagerly waiting for my instructor Lauren (laurenbarnholdt) to start putting up crazy cam pics of herself.

One thing I didn’t count on about leaving Nationwide was the number of people who would be impacted outside of my immediate circle (bosses, staff, etc.) One admin admitted that she started crying when I told her. People are actually sad to see me go. This is so strange. I guess I don’t realize how much my presence impacts people because I focus on the people who don’t really care. I need to fix that, huh?

Boss #2 told me to stay home tomorrow. I thought about it, but I’m going to go in at least for a little bit. All three of them are out tomorrow as well as a lot of other people. There really won’t be much for me to do–but maybe I can start cleaning out my desk…? I have a TON of stuff to throw away/cart home/donate/SOMETHING!

Blargh. It’s already 11? 🙁 Fun times go way too quickly, ya know. At least it’s the weekend. A great weekend because I won’t have to take care of Aidan (although I do miss him bunches) and Chris might go camping with Craig. Can we say PARTAY at my house? (Yeah right. As if!)

Oh yeah, and Aimzy (liesandpromises) got my plane ticket today! California… here I come!!!!!!!
Everyone PRAY that I run into Adam Brody when I’m out there and that he and I totally chill out together.

Okay then. Ta ta for now.

Please Stand Clear of the Doors

/ disney world, shopping

I am wearing my grey contacts today because I left my clear ones in the car and couldn’t find my glasses. If they annoy me too much, I’ll put my clear ones in later. Does anyone else have this problem when wearing colored contacts? Like, they float around? I feel like I’m seeing spots. Also, since they float around, people HAVE to be able to tell they’re fake.

Acuvue 2 just doesn’t work for me as colored contacts go. Too bad, cause grey looks very dramatic on me.

My Wishlist:

– Spectromagic Soundtrack
– Wishes Soundtrack
– Mickey Stapler
– Mickey Ankle socks
– Illuminations – Tapestry of Magic Soundtrack
– Mickey Mouse Window Decal

There is also a Spectromagic cast member pin and I WANT IT. Might I be a bit obsessed with Spectromagic?

You betcha! And darn proud of it, too.

Anyone wanna indulge me??? 😀 Oh please, oh please, oh please!

I think I’ll build the collection slowly. One treat per pay and only AFTER I’ve paid my bills, taken care of Aidan and the cats and such.

BWAH. I keep having weird dreams, and they’re involving the same people. I have no idea why or what they mean or what they’re trying to tell me, but man, I am pretty tired of them.

Yay for Friday. Yay for Disney.

I found a site from where to download the monorail spiel. So guess what I did? I downloaded Goldwave and edited it, so it only says “Please.” HAHAHA. Such fond memories.

I have Disneyworld fever so badly it’s not funny. Too bad I don’t have any funds to permit me to go! Ah, someday soon. Again. I pray. 🙂

‘Til Later! ºOº

Oh Dear.

/ money, shopping

Aeropostale now has online shopping.

This could be very bad for my wallet.

I LOVE that darn store.

Off to do my hair now. Good times (not so much).

Later…

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…

edited to add – Gmail now gives 2 gigs of storage!!!!
