yadda yadda

Another rambling, no real purpose post....

*saw my nieces yesterday for the first time since Christmas. Winter got in the way of several attempts. The 4 year old wanted all my attention all the time. The 4 month old cried bloody murder if I so much as looked at her. Toward the end of the visit Miss M decided I wasn't so bad afterall. I got a few cute photos of her...check out FB for them.

*still got my head in the books with my online course. Did well on my second test: another 92%. My assignments aren't going so well, however: and of course they're worth the largest chunk of my overall mark. My midterm is in a few weeks, and the very thought terrifies me.

*my friend has calmed down a bit over her wedding. She's still in full on planning mode but she's toned it down a few notches. Now her concerns is making sure she has sufficient decor for her reception.

*I'm going to see U2 this summer! Tickets go on sale, officially, this morning, however thanks to N and her Twittering she caught wind of a promo code for a presale that took place yesterday! So, tickets we've got! Can't wait!

*I'm tired of winter. I'm tired of people reminding me its only early Feb and we do live in "the great white north". I don't care. I'm tired of it. I want to move somewhere that is 18 degrees, sunny and fall all the time!

*I recently started seeing a Chiropractor (not sure if I mentioned that in my last post). I think its going to take awhile to get used to the cracking sound. I realize I'm not actually cracking, that its the gas in the joints escaping, however a small part of me thinks, everytime, "oh god, my head is going to snap off". Illogical, I know. After a flop Dr visit my aunt suggested I see her chiropractor to attempt to help with my headache issues. Since I've seen her I've had 2 headaches, instead of a headache a day, all day. So after only 2 visits something seems to be working. Though I am secretly hoping the snow storm hits hard today so I can cancel my appointment. Its hard on the bank account. Yes I get reimbursed through my health benefits at work. Its just hard to pay for it upfront then wait for the return. So I am hoping I can cancel today, and blame it on the weather, and just go on Thurs afternoon instead. Its doubly hard that she wants to see me twice a week for the time being...thats $100 a week I dont' really have.

*work continues to go well. Every year we have a large conference in for 3 days. They're fun, I really enjoy the organizers and the delegates (they're a group of recovering addicts). This year I had 3 on the organizing committee actually ask that I work that weekend. Last year I had a blast with them, and they apparently loved me as they wrote a nice letter to the management saying how fab they thought I was. So they've requested I work that weekend (one guy even said it wouldn't be the same without me). So I sent my boss an email explaining to her they've asked I be scheduled and can we make sure I'm on that weekend and not scheduled off. She forwared my email to the other supervisor who was working on the schedule last night. Now I'm concerned he thinks I'm tooting my own horn. But, whatev. They want me there, I'll make sure I'm there. I wouldn't miss it anyway. They're just that great.

*I think I enjoy this bullet point blogging stuff. It kinda keeps me from getting too long winded and boring the snot out of everyone!

The end.
