Sooo. . . .

It's my birthday day.

I'm 30.

I accidentally punched and scratched myself in the eye this morning when I woke up. Coincidence?!? I think not.

My Crush and other tidbits. . .

  • I have a crush. . . I almost hate saying that. I do. I didn't realize I had a full fledged crush until one of my coworkers made the comment that I was flirting on the phone. You see, he works with one of the offices I deal with daily. And he is adorable. Except the last time we all went to happy hour, he had a girlfriend. Who lived 5 hours away. And he said it was a hard relationship to have. But as much as I talk to him through work, which is like a 5-minute work talk and then 20 minutes of us just shooting the breeze. He emailed me his phone number to maybe get together last Friday. And then I logged onto Facebook on Sunday and he had added me as a friend. He literally had to search for me on Facebook. I think that's cute. Or maybe it's stalkerish. Not sure. I'll take cute for now. I also noticed that he had no "in a relationship" marked on there. Maybe he's single now. I don't know. But he does want to take me out for my birthday on Friday since I don't have any plans because my friends are throwing me a party on Saturday. Wait, maybe that's stalkerish to look at his page. Man, we're both stalkers! I like crushes. Especially if they might lead somewhere.
  • Also, I never noticed how some guy friends can become a little jealous even though we don't hang out at all or really talk anymore. You, the guy friend, who can't remember my birthday can in the middle of conversation remember the guy's place I was watching the Hawks victory at (and said this guy's name only once quickly) and say "Oh well, is this guy going to be at your birthday??" in a sort of tone. No this guy won't be there because it's my friends cousin who I am not attracted to and just went there to watch the game with her because I didn't feel like going to the bar, and he lives across the street, but I didn't find the need to tell him that. I find it funny that he used a tone with me.
  • I think that Hollywood should do a big campaign that says "Do Hugs, not Drugs". In the last month, toxicology reports pending, some really young people have died for no reason.
  • Have I mentioned I'm turning the Big 3-0?? YIKES!!!! Age is but a number, Age is but a number. . .
  • I really hope that at my birthday no one in my family tells Dean what a dbag he is. But I would also find it funny.
  • I'm looking more forward to my party than actually having my birthday.
  • We right now have more snow than we usually have all year. That is awesome. And sucky all at the same time. But I do enjoy snow days!
  • If people didn't have the weather to complain about, what would they complain about??
Happy Monday!!

Happy New Year!!!

It's weird to think that it's 2010 now. Do you say "twenty-ten" or "two thousand ten"?? I say "twenty-ten" and I don't know why. I didn't say "twenty-nine" that would have just been silly!!

I was reflecting back on the past year and while I know it was filled with one of the most depressing moments of my life, it also had some really good times. And I guess most of the times I look back on that were happy, and I cherish the most are the ones that I spent with Josie. I can never get those back now or recreate them, but I wouldn't change anything. This leads directly into my resolutions.

I always try to come up with catch phrases for my New Year's Resolutions like last year was "Living Fine in '09" or "Make everything great in '08". I can't remember what '07s was but I also can't think of anything that rhymes with seven. Anywho. . .

My new slogan is "Doing the best I can in 2010!" But now I'm thinking that it should be "Doing all I can in 2010!" We'll see. It's up for debate now. I know it sounds vague, but this is how I can going to do the best or all I can in 2010.
  • I am going to live each day to it's fullest.
  • I will take time to enjoy the finer things in life.
  • I will take more chances in life, do things that I wouldn't normally do. Like if my friend calls me at 9pm and asks me to go grab a drink and I'm already in bed, I'm going to meet them for 1. . . in my PJs.
  • I will call my college friends more.
  • I'm going to start writing more letters.
  • I'm going to read at least one book a month.
  • I'm going to remember what it's like to love again. Love myself and love others and not stop myself from falling in love.
  • I'm not going to look at the past with regret but look to the future with hope and move on.

Happy New Year everyone!!!

Oh and on New Year's Day I went and saw the movie Brothers that my little cousin is in and she did a spectacular job! I'm also really jealous that she and her mom got to hang out with Jake Gyllenhaal!!
