Two days ago marks the second month that I have been with Rich, and I couldn't be happier. He is sweet and thoughtful, texts me and calls me every day, and makes me feel beautiful. He's smart and funny, has some musical skills, is open and friendly, and my parents LOVE him. His parents like me, too. We're both Catholic, which is awesome. We have ( Read more... )

I am having a great January.  On the 4th I went on a date Rich, my current boyfriend.  I'm not going to say too much about him (I plan on having a whole post for that), but I am very very happy.  It's so awesome to be with someone who truly enjoys spending time with me.  He is amazing in so many ways, and I sincerely appreciate everything about him ( Read more... )

I appreciate everyone who left me a note, called me, made a post, or sent me an e-card or a text to help celebrate my birthday.  Thank you to everyone who came to my party, who gave me a gift, who made something (or bought something!) for me as I turned 30.  You have truly made it special for me.  I am so blessed to have you all in my life.  I am ( Read more... )

This past weekend went by in a huge blur.  I packed so much stuff into two days... it was crazy.  Saturday morning, I went to my friend Rebekah's graduation (they mispronounced her last name as she walked across the stage) and then headed to her party afterwards.  She has super nice family and I had met her friends and mom and knew her boyfriend.  ( Read more... )

The dryer going at the ass crack of dawn? Not gonna miss it.

The horrible burnt buttered popcorn smell? And the dryer making an ungodly racket in the wee hours of the morning? By the end of the month, all of that will be gone. My roommate is moving in with her grandmother at the first of the year ( Read more... )

I did 3 loads of laundry ( Read more... )

Things I am really, really hating right now:

• The smell of burned Butter Lover's popcorn (smells a bit like burnt vomit).
• The sound of the dryer at 1 in the morning when I'm trying to sleep.  What the bloody hell is in there, metal shoes??
• The cat waking me up in 20 minute intervals since 4 this morning
• The feeling of burning in my stomach when I ( Read more... )

Just a wee post to let everyone know I'm still alive... today when I get home, I'm going to call the phone company and let them know that I'm interested in DSL.  Trying to survive on dial-up this semester has been an out-and-out disaster.  Especially with my online course.  Right now I'm able to post this and get several things I've needed to get ( Read more... )

Hmm... what have I been up to?  Lessee ( Read more... )
