First things first: Happy Birthday to one of my favorite authors, J. R. R. Tolkien. In honor of his literary awesomeness, I intend to watch LOTR while I pack for my trip.
Speaking of which, I have just one more work shift to get through, and then I am headed to Nashville, TN, to surprise my best friend, Stephanie, and celebrate her daughter Sophia's (my goddaughter) first birthday. I'm super excited because Steph's husband (Josh) and I have been planning this surprise for a month, and I can't believe we might actually pull this off! I can't wait to see Steph's face when I walk in the door. :) Since she lives in TN, and I live in MI, we don't get to see each other more than once or twice a year. It's especially hard because she doesn't have many friends there, and none of them are close friends, so she tends to miss me a lot. (not that I don't miss her, I just have more close friends living nearby to commiserate and get in trouble have fun with)
I'm praying it'll be a safe and fun trip.
