(no subject)
I've been in Boone the past couple days working at Bandana's. I managed to get some nice cash out of it, and I'm really glad I went. Work was fine, nothing really to complain about. There were a few crappy tips...but that's expected. Sigh.
So basically, today was a great day. Let me explain why:
- I was happier and more talkative at work, which rarely happens. I'm still new enough to just want to get there, do my job, and leave. Others hang around before/after work or go out and party with other employees...yeah, I don't. But I still had a really good time today.
- I GOT A TOWNHOUSE FOR NEXT YEAR! I've REALLY been wanting to rent from these townhouses behind King Street for my junior and possibly senior year, but it was pretty doubtful that I'd get it. Turns out there was one opening, and it's mine!
- Dave and I hit our one year mark today. Whoa. Oh, and it's our "official" one year because we did have that 5 week episode. It's crazy and weird and comfortable and unsettling all at the same time.
- I drove back to Charlotte today because I'm watching Cooper this weekend. The drive was easy despite the one and off rain. Got to hang out with my brother, which is cool because I rarely get to do that.
Cooper and I are going running in the morning after I swing by Wachovia to drop off some money and a paycheck. I got some new running shoes over the summer, and he got some in the past week. We're both really trying to get into this sport. I know I've said it so many times before, but this time...I'm actually carrying through with my goals. I'd really like it to last for awhile especially because I've found routes to run around Boone, and I already feel my progress. I'm still not a huge fan of running in general, but I've been reading some books and buying a bit of gear from Target to help keep my motivated. Oh, and did I mention the scale I bought? Not only does it measure weight, but it can also calculate my body fat. I'm hoping that'll keep me more on track while I'm at school because I've never had a scale since I've been there. I'm just really tired of hearing my parents make jokes and feeling sick of myself. I've only got this body once, and I want to be comfortable with it. Wish me luck.
I should really be getting to bed. Wachovia is only open from 9-12 tomorrow...so I can't sleep in too late. :/
