Almost the end of January already...

So it's getting to the end of the first month of 2010, and I'm happy when I think that I only have a little bit longer before I get to see Mike again. I'm liking my new job. Today was a good day. I think I'm more likely to blog on good days than I am on bad ones. Which is fine I think, but I might also start trying to write on days where I don't feel so positive about things. But for right now, I am feeling good. The one thing that I keep catching myself thinking about is my birthday. I wonder if it's bad to start thinking about what one wants for bday presents almost 2 months before one's birthday...because I already have decided TWO things that I really really want for my 23rd birthday. Thing one: "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers" musical on DVD. My favorite, and I've been realllllly wanting to watch it lately, but I refuse to pay $15 for a DVD. I'm cheap. I know. Thing two: A plane ticket to London. I really miss Mike, and I'd looooove to go see him for my birthday. I know that me writing these things on my blog does not make them actually happen, but I just wanted to get that little wishlist off my chest. Yahhhhhhhh.

Yesterday was nice too. I think yesterday helped to put me in a good mood for today. And Saturday was actually pretty all right too. Saturday I made myself breakfast (fried eggs and sourdough toast) and then cleaned my bathroom with really good-smelling house cleaner from Target. Cleaning your bathroom while listening to good loud music and while using pleasant-smelling bathroom cleaning products makes the whole experience a lot less painful. After cleaning, I went on a brisk walk with mom lady, and then showered and went out exploring for a bit. By exploring, I mean exploring Alpharetta, GA-style: I went antiques shopping (aka browsing and talking on the phone with Mike), to Super Target, and then to Fry's. It was pleasant. Then I came home and drank Corona Light and watched "The Hangover." Funny funny movie, but not as good the second time, since you know where Doug is. Still humorous though.

Sunday was nice too. I went with my mom to a bridal faire in Atlanta at this fancy schmancy hotel downtown, and she was very pleasant to hang out with, and we enjoyed ourselves and taking free samples and meeting crazyyyy wedding vendors. Actually found two photographers who we really liked though, which made me happy. Afterwards, went to lunch at California Pizza Kitchen back in Alpharetta, then explored Pier One Imports, then went to go see the 4:40 showing of "Leap Year" with Amy Adams. Gotta love Amy Adams, she is totally precious, and it helped that the movie was a silly romantic comedy about an American falling for a guy from the United Kingdom. Ireland, not England...but you see why I liked it. :) The guy also had a beard with a little spot in it where no hair grows...like Mike. I liked that. I'm such a freaking goober. Anyways, Sunday was nice and I actually got to bed a little later than I'd planned, but it was ok because I slept really well.

This morning I actually woke up feeling well-rested, which doesn't happen very often. It carried throughout the rest of the day as well, which I was VERY pleased about. I also had a good day at work, followed by a nice conversation with the wifey (who I haven't gotten to talk to in awhile), and then a nice convo with the fiance, and then a lovely workout at the gym where I got a free 7-day pass to use. So it was good. I'm a little worried that with all this positivity and happiness, tomorrow is gonna suck so bad. But I'm happy now and therefore I am going to enjoy that. I am just going to deal with right now for right now, and see what tomorrow's about when tomorrow comes.
