Time Flys...

When you're having fun, eh? Not much to report on. Just the usual...work & school. One fun thing to report is I got a new laptop. I'm spending today configuring it and loading music and pictures on it. It's a Sony Vaio. I got tired of the firewall on my work laptop blocking everyplace I wanted to go.

Easter weekend was ok. Friday night was a lazy night, Dave and I stayed in. On Saturday, our friend, Stace, was in a play at Schoolcraft College. We went to be supportive, but we had no idea she only had one line and the play was 2.5 hours long. We had a good laugh about it. The dinner before the play was really good. Afterwards, Sarah and I went to The Post in Dearborn. We met Dave, Sandra, Joel, Beckii, Jacque and a couple other people there. It was fun. And Sunday, of course, was a family day.

Well, I now have to do some homework and studay for my test that's tonight.

Another One Bites the Dust

Well, today is my last day of class for this semester. I'm very excited that my horrendous Workplace Communication class if OVER! I will never again have to learn how to write a professional e-mail - Yip! After tonight, I'll have two and a half weeks off - Spring semester starts on April 2. I think I might load up next semester, but not 100% sure yet.

This weekend is St. Patty's Day. I'm bummed to say that i will not partake in the drinking festivities :( My mom planned a family outing and I feel obligated to go since she rescheduled the date just for me. Although, I've come to realize that I really can't drink anymore because I'm prone to getting sick - so it's probably best I won't be drinking for 24 hours straight :)

Next weekend I'll be headed to Memphis. This is my yearly trip with my mom. I always dread 4 full days with just me and my mom, but it always turns out ok. I just hope we keep ourselves busy so the days go by fast. Does anybody want Graceland souvenirs?? Ha ha.

Well, that's about it for now. Have a happy and safe weekend!

Happy Friday

I'm so glad this week is over. Not that it was a bad week, just that it was a boring one.

I'm super excited for tomorrow. It's finally here...the Justin Timberlake concert. YAY! I can't wait to stare at his hotness :)

Anyway, I think it's really weird when I start to think back to things that I've done or didn't do. I was in class the other day and we were talking about what we had to take vs. what credits we had that transferred. And I realized that it has been 12 years since I've taken a math class. That just sounds so crazy to me! I graduated high school 13 years ago and I've been driving for 15 years. The numbers just seem funny to me now. I don't feel old at all, but when I talk about the past I forget how long ago it really was. Hmm.

Lovely Sunday

I am at Anna's new place right now. She has a really nice house in Holly. Yesterday, we helped her unpack and decorate - although she still has a lot to do. We started drinking around 6:00 and ended up drunk by 10. We played the Sex and the City trivia game while we watched SATC. It was a fun evening with the girls.

This morning we were all up early because we had passed out by 11:00. I went online and ordered a new pair of tennis shoes. Right now, we are munching on food we didn't finish last night (chips, cheese and crackers, and spinach dip). The puppies are running around...well, Duke and Izzy are running around and Louie has found his favorite spot...in front of the fireplace. Shortly, I will take a shower then head to PF Changs to have lunch with Trina. I'm looking forward to the Crispy Honey Shrimp. That will be a lot better than the Big Boy's I'm going to have for (family) dinner.

I'm excited that I only have two more weeks of class. I'll only have a two-week break before next semeter, but it will be nice. Next semester I'm taking an intro course for my Surg Tech program. Also, Microbiology and Algebra. I'm going to attempt to take the online Algebra course, which could prove to be a bad idea. But, I'll just have to wait and see.

Work is going well. I had a really good review with my managers. I might have already blogged about it, but can't rememeber. Anyway, I told them that I was interested in studying something other than business and they said I should do what's best for me. They will be supportive of my decision. I was a little worried they might not, but I know they are really nice people and good managers, so I wasn't surprised when they encouraged me.

Well, I should get ready for the day. Bring on the PF Changs! :)

Worry Wart

Ok, so I get a message today that someone has bad news for me but says they're not going to tell me until they see me (which is 9 hours away). So, I'm sitting here going over in my head all the possible things it could be. Trying to think of things that might seem bad but really aren't - but I'm not having any luck. I'm sitting here thinking the worst because that is my nature. I'm not a positive/optimistic person. I can root others on and tell them over and over to think positive, but when it comes to my own siutations - the worst is the only thing I think about. Maybe it is a good thing, because then I build it up to be so horrible and when I find out the truth, it's not so bad. But that's not good for the 9 hours I sit here angry and miserable, giving myself a headache, feeling sick and not eating...

I hope everyone has a beautiful day - for me, the worst is yet to come.

Naked Potter?

http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/news/ap/20070227/117261096000.html

I hate it when people get all bent out of shape when actors take on different roles. Isn't that what actors are supposed to do? I wouldn't expect D.R. to be Harry Potter and only Harry Potter in his career. I say kudos to him for branching out. (well, that and he actually looks pretty hot with his shirt off) :-P

GA

Note from Jess:
What the heck was up with Grey's last night? I was totally convinced she was going to die.
I also felt kinda bad for Addison, watching her watch Derek crying over Meredith....that would be so hard.

My thoughts:
I knew she wouldn't die because it "Grey's Anatomy"...can't kill the main character. But, I did hear the spoiler so I knew her mom was going to die. I think they did the episode pretty well, but in real life she'd be DEAD (or at least brain dead). Plus, if it were any normal person off the street they would have given up and just pronounced the person dead on arrival! But, it's TV so have to keep that in mind and not take it so seriously :)
