Excitement

Well, I've not written anything in a few days and that's mostly because nothing interesting has happened that is worth writing about. There are a few things that I've gotten very excited about, though, so that's what I'm going to share today.

1) I had an Economics test yesterday. After I rocked that I decided to drive to downtown Westminster to The Hickory Stick to check out the new Vera Bradley that is out. I could spend days looking at that stuff. I'm not a fan of Calypso or Bali Gold, but my new obsessions are Bali Blue and Hope Garden. I have zero money, but broke out the credit card to buy a clipboard, flipflops, key chain, and organizer. Vera brings out my worst habits. After leaving my favorite little shop I called Corey to inform him that he needs to find a job STAT so that he can fund my addiction. That leads me to excitement #2.

2) Corey called me this morning and told me that he has an interview in Timonium on Monday at 1:45 for an entry level marketing position. If he gets this job it would mean many things that would make me very happy. First, I'd be able to live at home up until the wedding and not have to pay rent anywhere. Secondly, I'd be able to get a job now, which means more money to save and I can also fund my own Vera addiction.

3) I went to the doctors this morning. April starts the thrid month that I've seriously started trying to get healthy and lose a significant amount of weight so I don't have weight related problems later in life. As of today I've lost 20 pounds. I'd like that number to be higher, but I'll take what I can get. It made me happy to put on a shirt that I bought months ago that I swore I'd fit into one day and it fit.

5) Now this is probably the most exciting of all for me today. Tonight I have to write a paper and a discussion board and I will officially be on spring break. Really, it's far over due. I needed this break weeks ago. I do have to do replies to the discussion board on Monday and then a quiz on Wednesday next week, but that's all and I'm thrilled about it. After Corey's interview on Monday I will go down to Virginia and help Mel transform the little house, which was once going to be Corey and I'd house after we got married, into her thrift shop. I'm very excited about this. I'll explain another day why we aren't going to live there anymore, but it was the best decision.

I love days when I feel happy for multiple reasons and even though I know there are some things I should focus on today, I'm refusing to think about those things today because nothing will ruin my day today.
