Sooo . . .

I was asked if I lost consciousness shortly after I wrote my post seeing as I punched myself in the face. . . but no. . .

I somehow got busy and lost the will to write anything. Which as you know, usually doesn't have much content or wisdom anyway, but nonetheless. I will try and post about my birthday because it was frickin awesome!!

Some highlights in the almost last month:

• "Drunk A is fantastically awesome, Sober A is okay"--my cousin and friend H
• I have gone on dates with my crush from the previous posts. And yes, he broke up with his girlfriend of 4 years. However, now we are taking a break. :( It was a great month while it lasted though!!
• I had to reschedule my health screening because she forgot to call and remind me that a) I had it in the morning, and b) that I shouldn't drink alcohol the night before. It was my friend Jamie's bday the night before. And before dinner I met my realtor for 2 beers to discuss houses at 5:30pm and such and then at dinner had 2 glasses of Pinot Noir and then 3 beers at the bar later. I was home at 11pm. I'm pretty sure this would have affected my test results. Not to mention the fact I was pretty sure I was still drunk when I woke up. I did remember that I had the screening in the morning though. :)
• I have fantastic friends and family!
• Fingers crossed I have a big promotion coming in my future.
• I'm going to San Diego on the 19th to scatter Josie's ashes. It's both happy and sad. But it's definitely closure to one of the greatest people that I have ever known and was lucky enough to call my good friend.
• My friend Jeff told me last night that he's always amazed at the confidence I have in life when it comes to my friends, meeting new people, my job, etc. Yet, I have zero confidence when it comes to guys I like and I always think the worst. He can suck it.
• The Fighting Illini beat #5 Michigan State, which is a huge thing for me because I hate Michigan State in basketball for as long as I can remember. Then the Illini last night beat #13 Wisconsin at home too!! I almost cried!!
• On a side note, I hadn't talked to Jeff since my birthday since he's travelling a lot for work and the first thing I get from him says "I hope you're prepared for your tiny Fighting Illini to go down tonight at mighty Wisconsin." So I responded, "I'm glad that we haven't talked for a month, yet the first thing I do hear from you is trash talk." He called me after the game and thanked me for not rubbing it in. :)
• My friends Robb and Christine had their baby on Sunday! The weather was horrible so I haven't seen her yet! But I'm going to tonight!!
• My cousin Brian had his baby last night! Well he didn't have the baby per say, his wife did. . . but you get the idea!

Happy Hump Day!!
