Things here are good...I had the best time yesterday with my new friend at the book sale. It was $30 per box of books, as many as you could package in. So we split a box, and spent two and a half hours browsing through the thousands of books. I ended up getting 16 books, so spent less than a dollar a book, and am SO excited. Then we went to Starbucks across the street and talked about everything for a long time. She's one of those friends where you feel better and uplifted after spending time with her.
Then I went and babysit for the kids I used to nanny for. I got the little boy addicted to watching basketball, so he asked if we could watch a game. We did and he got so into it, and was asking me all these questions. It was so cute and fun.
Today I got to go have breakfast with my dad-crepes!-and we had a great time. Then I visited with my mom and brother and his girlfriend for a bit. Now I'm home, and am spending the day cleaning, reading, and being creative. Essentially my apartment is a mess becuase I haven't been feeling well, so I'm bribing myself to clean-if I accomplish a cleaning task, I get to read a chapter of my book, and then do something creaitve, like make icons, or vid a collab part, or write the Suliet story, or something to that effect. For those of you who put in graphics requests, I promise they will be coming. I responded to a new friend's request at the help NZ auction, and am working on finishing all the icons she bought.
I have a date on Friday! We're going for coffee after I get off work, and before he has to go to work. We've been talking on eharmony for a while now, and he asked me out. He seems really nice, and he loves the Bulls, and family is really important to him, and he loves trashy reality TV. He's cute too, at least from his picture he looks so. I'm pleased cause while I'm nervous, I don't seem to be freaking out, which is big progress. I'm just nervous like people get. I'm trying not to build it up too much in my head in case it doesn't work out, but I am excited.
I haven't been feeling so great...really drained and achy..I'm putting in a call to my doctor tomorrow. We did full blood work up and it all came back normal, but I'm still not feeling like I know I should be. So we'll see.
Also, because who doesn't like to feel happy:
