although,

it is almost 10pm, I have a ton of laundry sitting on my bed, and my entire body feels like a train just ran over me, I have decided to stay up, watch the last few episodes of season 6 (last season. sad face) of Nip/Tuck, and blog.

What a smart decision.

Today has been a good day:

I had to work (another sad face), and on Saturdays it is extraordinarily boring. No one really comes in on Saturdays because we're only open 10-12, so I'm usually there by myself working on my latest craft project, or reading a book, or doing whatever else my little heart fancies.

BUT, today, my aunt who lives in St. Louis called in an order for 12 dozen cookies. She wants them decorated for breast cancer awareness month and have them delivered to my mom, grandma, uncle, aunt, and their coworkers. How sweet is she? I love her much. Anyways, I texted my boss to tell her about the order, she called me, and told me that since she's on vacation this week, I can bake/decorate all 144 cookies by myself and then deliver them! Holy wow! I'm so stoked. This is like my first "real" taste of my future career, and I couldn't be more excited. This really relieves any doubt I've ever had about my choice of career. :)

Anyways.. after that, I went to Springfield with the grandma, who bought me a new pair of shoes because she was "tired of seeing my nasty moccasins." Gotta love that woman.

I've been home for a while now, and now my pumpkin spice latte is way cold and that huge pile of clothing is still on my bed, and I'm obsessed with finishing this series so I can start on either Lost or Arrested Development (I'm not sure which to start just yet..)

I'm excited for this coming week for some reason... I don't know why. Life isn't what I expected it to be, but that's ok. I'm learning to go with the flow. I'm learning that biting my nails is not a good solution to my problems. I've also learned that next time, when I dye my hair, not to forget to put in the little green bottle of whatever that good smelling stuff is. And I'm definitely learning that next time I have a Safety & Sanitation test worth 140 points, I should probably study for it.
