Still Alive

So obviously you've taken my leave of absence as some sort of sign that I got a life or something, a life too good to write down! never.

However, I do in fact have a day job now, which I prayed I would have. It's funny how the wheels keep turning and you keep moving. When all is despair, little big blessings come your way. That being said, work is still work to me so if you want to find the downside, it's always there.

So I'll try and remain positive because I'm excited to learn. I feel like I'm back in 2nd grade again. Ya know, where you start to learn how to punch letters on a keyboard or write in cursive. We all hate it. Being so slow. I hate being slow. It's the second day so I can't be too hard on myself, but oh man do I just want to be 6 months down the road. Do you see how I am? Ridiculous. Never enjoying the blessings of the moment I swear. 

So back to being positive, I'm positive I don't have time for much these days. As soon as I finish the last season of 24, I'm all game. I blame it on Mr Smith who just wants to get me into the series "Heros" next. I'd rather hit myself in the face. It's been the BEST weather the last few days with all these night rain storms, but did I go running? No. Thanks for asking.

Maybe next week, right?

Any way, guess who isn't lazy - a previous roommate from VA sent me this wonderful card in the mail. I barely knew Mrs Kristen because she moved in right after I got engaged. I feel horrible about that (not the getting married part, don't get your panties in a wad) because I am a firm believer that she is one lovely, amazing gal. She just got married and I hope he realizes how lucky he is. 

This card is 100% true although she tried to say it was only 50%. But then does that mean my blog is interesting? Well, most days probably not. But I LOVE keeping in touch with people via blog. I hate facebook almost every day. I swear it's a parasite relationship. It sucks my life, but I can't let go of it.  

This card (& the cute magnet paper pad) came with the lovely VA tax bills so you know opening a package of happy thoughts made my day so much better than ridiculous bills. Although, I did find out that because my car is so old I didn't have to pay personal property taxes, so that's great. Arlington threw us a bone.

**Does anyone else get phone calls from their mother on the way home from work asking why we haven't had kids yet? Just curious. Those conversations always end so well.

***Love ya mom.
