Hi, friends.
I haven't updated this in quite some time, and with so much happening right now in my life I thought I would go ahead and update it. I know that no one actually uses this anymore so this is just for my own personal records really.
Money is still really tight despite a promotion I received at work. It was a 15% raise, but with a big car payment and rent every month I am almost always broke. If things continue like this my debt will continue to grow, so I am hoping for some relief with that soon.
Despite my money troubles I have a few great trips coming up. Thomas Boggs is getting married next week and they have rented a beach house for the entire week. Luckily I had enough PTO to take off three days and I get to stay there from Monday night to Thursday night. Being at the beach will be a nice way to relax and forget about money. The second trip I'm taking in May, and it will be to Chicago. My friend Trent works for Allstate and he is flying me up for free for the weekend. I can't wait to eat at the Kuma's, which is a metal themed burger restaurant, and eat some authentic deep dish pizza! I am however dreading the flight because I have never flown before and this scares me. I think the thought of if the plane goes down there is no chance I will live is the main reason.
Yesterday was my birthday and Jessica bought me some awesome gifts and took me out for tons of sushi at Rusans and some drinks afterward at Common House. We had a joint birthday party last weekend which featured a pinata filled with mini bottles and condoms. This weekend it my other new tradition of having a joint birthday with Laura and Justin. I am pretty excited about this because everyone always comes out for it. Including people I only get to see about once a year.
Here are the cool gifts Jessica got me:
Awesome Ray Ban sunglasses since my long time Hobbie tortoise shell sunglasses broke.
Final Fantasy XIII for Xbox 360. (I love that she supports my bad habits)
Some awesome Yoshimoto Nara postcards that I am going to hang all around the house!
