C'mon fall!
I can't believe it's almost September. That's just crazy.
For the past couple weeks I've gone to the gym at least three times a week. Yay! I'm just hoping I can keep it up. I've been trying to eat better and overall that's going okay. Why must unhealthy food taste so good though? :( I guess I'm trying to lose weight for the wedding...thinking about trying on wedding dresses makes me want to hyperventilate lol.
I'm excited for the end of the year, lots going on! I kind of never paid attention to how much vacation/sick leave I have at work and it turns out I had 18 days left, and with carrying over 5 days that left me with 13 days I need to use up before the end of the year. Absolutely no problem. :) I don't do weeks off really unless I'm actually going somewhere so I pretty much have off one day every other week for the rest of the year. Places/things in place to do, in no kind of order:
1. Martinsville race
2. Richmond race (unless it rains...I will do a rain-delayed race if we've travelled to be there but if I have the option to stay warm and dry in my apartment, you better believe I'm not going out lol)
3. Pumpkin picking/corn maze (somewhere where the corn maze is big!)
4. Ravens home game (in DECEMBER...obviously not my idea but I am willing to brave it if it gets me a foam finger and a cute hoodie)
5. Altria Day at Kings Dominion
6. Christmas Town at Busch Gardens (I'm determined to make it there one year!)
7. Gaylord Hotel and ICE (probably in January)
8. Charles Town
9. Virginia Beach (just for the day)
10. State Fair
There's this little gray kitten/teenage cat that hangs around the apartment complex and omg I want to cat-nap him. I'm pretty sure he's been taken in by the first floor people but he lays around the stairs close to me and today, sure enough, there he was when I got home from work. We chatted (he's a talker) and I fed him some cat food (because I am weak) and while he was chowing down I snuck in a quick pet! It was brief and fleeting and probably more of a pat that a pet but still. I had the door ajar to the apartment and Marisol stuck her head out and watched the kitten for a little while. Didn't hiss or growl or anything so I took that as a good sign. Not that I'll be getting another cat or anything...
Going up to DC/MD tomorrow to visit friends, I should try and get to bed early (read: before 2am) since I need to be up and on the road no later than 8:30am, sighhhhhh.
