Nothing new in the post-Thanksgiving world. The holiday was wonderful, and I spent all-day with my family & friends of the family. Yesterday evening we went to see a movie called Derailed. It was okay--kinda' scary, kinda' too realistic for me. About some scam artists. Could be a renter.
Last night Mom & I discussed finances and what-not. She encouraged me to invest more in my mutuals and said that if I continue to do so, they will double every ten years, leaving me a hefty retirement. I also found out that I have a FREE financial advisor (for the rest of my life), a service provided for those misplaced-military dependents. The one good thing Dad did for me! lol
Today's been highly productive. After shopping nearly 4 hours, I finally found THE outfit that'll I wear for my senior recital. It's still concert black, but it's light, delicate, flowing, and sorta' formal. *grins* Maybe it'll distract my audience so that they'll ignore the horrible sounds pertruding from my instrument!!! Seriously you guys, I'm so nervous/stressed out over this stupid recital. I must think about it 24/7. Mmm..thanksgiving dinner...turkey...recital....family...recital...mmmm mashed potatoes recital. recital. recital rec-Hot guy crossing the street!!! j/k Nonetheless, last night makes my FOURTH nightmare I've had about that bloody thing! BAAAH! Bah to it!
Anyway, so I found out my Cousin Pam, who works for NASA, may be moving to Europe. They offered her a job in South Korea, but she turned it down, hoping that something would open up in Italy instead. And if it does, I told her to take it! -just so it'll give me an excuse to brush-up on my Italian. *wink wink*
.......................
In either case, all for now. I must be leaving for Hattiesburg again. -Should get there by 5:30. "Lo siento" to Eric for not having time to have breakfast/lunch with you today. But I promise we'll get together sometime later this week or the next. Later gang!
