We interrupt this carefully crafted string of organized writing to bring you...
CHAOS!!!!
Lots of snow
Walking with the dogs
-at night, on a gravel road, over a stream
-during church, much needed peace
Swing dancing tomorrow night!!! And such a cute shirt and blouse to wear too! :-)
Reading Memoirs of a Geisha--excellent book
Shared cell phone plan with E
Sweetest voicemail in the world...well, at least to me at that moment: "Hey, you don't need to go grocery shopping or anything. I got peanut butter and strawberry jam and honey (I thought that'd be fun) and Cheetos and this really good whole grain bread..." That was at 8:30am. Less than ten hours after he called me nuts thinking a winter picnic would be fun. :-D
Potential Posse reunion on Saturday!!
Coffeeshop bliss: I'm totally paid up to date and have been on a biweekly basis for 6 weeks now. It's so good to be back!
Teri: She'd been lonely, so we have a good deal worked out. She comes over and cooks for us once week and .... well, we become her adopted family... which means that we pretty much do nothing but eat her food and include her in our normal every-day lives.
My voice: I think I need to stop singing in choir. Something's not right. I was getting my full soprano rather back, and then for the last three weeks I've been losing it (and control of it) more and more. Probably should mention that to my choral music education major boyfriend.
Ben owns three vehicles right now. None of them will get him from Point A to Point B. Yesterday, he was pulled over while borrowing my car. Not for speeding though. Just for not brushing off his rear window.
Going to an Irish pub with my coworkers to celebrate my birthday on Tuesday.
Lunch with MM on Friday!
Dinner with the fam, Grandpa, Nancy, and Eugene on Friday!
Why no writing before? Bride's maid dressing shopping zapped my energy for the whole week.
Ate an entire meal with just chopsticks--no noodles--just rice!
E's now working at the Apple Store, Famous Footwear, and will be starting soon as a hand bell choir at a big church in Bloomington. Add volunteering for his bell choir at his home church. Add practicing for playing piano at a friend's wedding. Add giving up caffeine for Lent. Add studying to become Mac certified an hour a day==One busy boy that I'm darn proud of.
Watched Wedding Crashers with the 'rents and Teri---sooo funny.
My b-day gift to myself--reaching the 1/4 point in paying off my student loans.
Plugging away at LSAT studying.
Adam sold his X-Box 360 in order to lease a vehicle for Natalie and himself--my little bro's growing up. :*-}
Visited campus for a hand bell choir concert--yay, Olaf!
Introduced E to gas station burritos. He did not partake but did question how much of my life I've spent at truck stops.
LS and B (adopted family member/friend of my dad's from Guards and girlfried) got engaged.
Attorneys at work in PA, MO, IA, IL. Head paralegal in Mexico. Legal secretary in Mexico. Legal assistant in WI. Legal secretary took snow day. Receptionist? Holding down the fort. :-D Craziness. (They haven't been/weren't all gone at once though. There were only 30 minutes where I was the only person in the office.)
