a thrill of hope...
... i really shouldnt start listening to xmas music
this is a little crazy. i'm awake, full, and up at 8am. 0_0 dropped my mother off at the park n' ride (is it just me or is there a hidden sexual innuedo in there? damn metro!) and decided that i would stop at starbucks. got meself a double nonfat pepperminte mocha and a lowfat marionberry muffin. its funny - the coffee is nonfat so the calories drop from 400 to 350! WOOHOO!! wow - arent i special? and then the marionberry muffin.. i wont even get started.. so with my caffeine withdrawl filled, i am ready to conquer today. i need to finish 2 scholarships, turn my dvds back to hollywood videos, and call uw & trio/quartet. only a week left in break and i promise that i will finish everything that i planned. victoria's secrets, old navy, and the yarn store will be visited tonight... hopefully.
