Me? Busy?

I’ve actually been quite busy with work and not being depressed anymore, so I haven’t had much time to blog. But I swear I’ll finish the two posts I started soon. I know all three of you reading are just DYING to find out the goings-on in my life.

Misc. thoughts.

1. I’d like to start having a “girls night” at my house again, yet I can’t think of a tv show to gather around like we used to.

Back in the day, I’d have a few girlfriends come over to watch ANTM, Sex & the City, Idol and/or Project Runway.

I don’t watch any of those shows anymore. Something tells me the girls wouldn’t have much fun coming over to watch my new favorite show Dexter. And I think I’m the only girl in a three city radius who gets stoked to be home at 7pm on Saturdays to watch new episodes of COPS.

Maybe Lipstick Jungle? Except it started already and I don’t know what’s going on.

B. For any ladies who are in the know, I decided today that I’m not going to take my Yasmin anymore. I’m giving it the boot because I think it’s causing me to feel crazy/depressed/off/panic attack-y and I don’t need any of that. Don’t worry, I’ll figure out what to take/do in it’s absence. Now is not the time for little ones.

#. Even though Macy’s told me it’d be two weeks for my glasses to come in (making them “here” on Saturday) I’ve still been stalking my phone in case they call to tell me they’re in. I check it every 15 minutes just in case I miss the call. Little things excite me.

…coming to work.

It’s crazy. All morning before I get to work, I’m all about getting stuff done at work. Like – really working. Finishing projects, feeling accomplished. As soon as I sit my ass in my comfy work chair, suddenly doing everything not work related is priority one. Priority two – procrastinate in whatever way possible. I don’t understand what happens from point A to point B.

Anyway, weekend wasn’t bad. I didn’t really get anything done, but that’s okay. Friday night we stayed home. I was in bed by 9pm, which was nice. I just didn’t want to move. I got a sudden burst of energy at like, midnight. But at that point, was forced to just go to sleep since the hubs had come to bed. Saturday I drove him to work (poor boy) and then bought birthday gifts for my friend L who we had a surprise party for that evening. We went out for dinner and when we got back to her house, like, 20 people scared the hell out of her. It was pretty good. We stayed late and I didn’t really go to sleep until about 3:30am.

She informed us during dinner that she and her hubby are seriously considering buying a house in Costa Rica and moving there. I thought she was kidding. But they’re serious. I almost started to cry. I have very few lady friends here in Minneapolis, and even less that I am such good friends with. I mean, I’ll live if she moves, but for my own selfish reasons I hope she doesn’t do it. :~(

Anyway, Sunday we went to the Home & Patio show (pretty much a waste of time – except we have some dude coming to our house this week to give us an estimate on how much new windows would cost) and then Target. I proceeded to spend the rest of the evening switching between watching Cops and sleeping. Martini – I see I missed your call. Tonight’s the night. I hope you’re around.

Tomorrow night, book club.

And I still can’t wait to get my new glasses already!!!

Happy day after VD.

And TGIF. Hope everyone’s VD was as fun/sexy/depressing/ridiculous/corny as you’d hoped. The hubs and I had a nice dinner at Santorini. It was spendy, but worth it. We never treat ourselves to THAT nice of a dinner – so it was welcome change. Although, I may have to wander around the neighborhood doing “odd jobs” to make up for the chunk of change we spent. :)

I’m so glad it’s Friday. I’m frightened I might be getting a cold or something, I was sweating all night last night, woke up with a sore throat, and suddenly might fall asleep while typing.

Tonight, we’re staying home and eating our VD leftovers. I’m so looking forward to it.

Today, I got tulips from the hubs. And heartburn from Chipotle. :) And a card from my mom with a picture of a baby on the front with the inside that reads: Warning. Valentine’s Day can cause babies.

It’s going pretty well so far. Aside from the heartburn, which needs to alleviate itself before we go to my favorite Greek restaurant tonight, Santorini.
