Happy Memorial Day!

 

As you can see, I'm celebrating by being at work. As we don't get the day off...so sad. Especially in light of the fact that there are TV-a-thons that I am missing as I type this.

 

So, in lieu of bbq-ing, I have decided to share a list of 5 things that I have accomplished over the past few weeks. Enjoy!

Life is a tad stressful in the world of Me at the moment.

 

Most of the stress is work related.

 

Most of the stress is positive.

 

Most of the stress I brought upon myself.

 

Most of the stress will be gone before I go home in July.

 

As such, the number of 'real' blogs (i.e., blogs that are more than 5 bullet points) will be minimal for awhile. Sorry. It's just the easiest thing to remove from my plate for the moment.

Today's Goal: To clean.

First of all, I am genuinely sorry for not having blogged that often as of late. But, alas, no matter how controlling (I am an ISTJ afterall) I try to be, I cannot seem to find the magical button that makes life easy. Or at least not that busy.

 

Secondly, I really haven't been up to too much as of late...as it is the last few weeks of school. So, I'm just finishing up reports for the 2007-08 academic year, planning for the 2008-09 academic year and cursing the 2009-2010 academic year. Yup. Already looking ahead to 2009. Sadly enough.

 

Well, here's a quick and dirty up date of the past few weeks of my life. Enjoy!

 

Movies - This past weekend I watched 27 Dresses on DVD. Very cute movie. Kinda made me want to help plan a wedding (hint, hint - either my sister or MoSus). I think that I may try watching No Country for Old Men tonight. Seems to be a perfect fit for the kind of day I've had. (Long story, not one to be shared via the interweb.)

 

Reading - I finally finished reading Lullabies for Little Criminals. It's a good book. Just had to be in the right frame of mind to read about teenagers selling themselves on the streets for attention and drug money. Now I'm working on another Laurie R. King book. I need a little mystery in my life.

 

Weather - It's been gorgeous out as of late. On Saturday, I enjoyed celebrating the 1-year anniversary of the birth of my boss' child at her house. We also celebrated the Kentucky Derby. It was nice to get out with work friends and not talk about work. For a change.

 

Psych - Officially finished watching the first season on DVD. I definitely love the show. And the main actors. Which causes dirty, dirty thoughts to happen.

 

Change - Once again a lot of change is happening around me. Not directly to me. But it's close enough to cause a little minor panic (at the disco). Hopefully, once the dust settles I'll be able to share more. Also, I have a lot of loose change in my desk again. I see a visit to the Coinstar in my near future.

 

SD Trip - Hope to have my tickets purchased by tomorrow (dang airlines are expensive!). The plan is to fly back to SD on July 3, and fly back to Louisiana on July 13. Contact me if you want to join in the fun that is Me in SD. I think there are already plans to visit Nutty's on July 11.

 

Guilty Pleasure - Yup. Totally addicted to Gossip Girl now. Dangnabbit!
