Jeans, a cat, and a million bucks

Happy Friday! I don’t have anything profound to say today so I’m just going to share a list of random things on my mind.

  1. I’m excited to see my mom this weekend. We’ll spend some time together tomorrow afternoon and I’m really looking forward to it.
  2. Being able to wear jeans to work on Fridays makes my day. I currently only have one pair of work pants, I only have black tights but only have brown shoes that are appropriate to wear with skirts so I’m so happy I can just wear jeans today.
  3. I felt like a million bucks running on the treadmill this morning.  I almost got back in bed but didn’t so instead of lifting told myself I’d just walk on the treadmill.  But when Blackout came on my iPod I got super pumped up and ran to the beat of the song.  I knew I bought that song for a reason!  I only ran for the duration of that one song but I had goosebumps while doing so, I was so in the zone.
  4. I’ve been spending my lunch breaks this week with this cute guy.  I almost kinda fell asleep on Wednesday while we cuddling on the couch.  I wish I had a couch to sit on and a window to look out for every lunch break. However, I’m not that excited for our time today because there’s a little bit of a mess on the carpet that I have to clean up.
  5. Zach and Emily are getting married on Sunday! We’re headed up to Long Island to see them tie the knot.  It’s going to be a great time. Can’t wait to see how pretty Emily looks.
  6. When I randomly woke up at 4 am this morning, I heard a baby crying in the apartment above ours and I thought “oh, those poor parents.” Then I wanted to stick a note under their door saying something like “don’t worry, it won’t be like this for long” or “you can get through this” or some other encouraging thing.  Or bake a lasagna or something. Since I don’t know these people, the above things would be weird.  So instead I just sent them some calm, relaxing thoughts and happy baby wishes. I also tried to turn our alarm off pretty quickly just in case the baby could hear it 🙂
  7. Also looking forward to going to “the D” with my girlfriends from home tomorrow night!
  8. Plans for tonight: post about Valentine’s Day and schedule to post tomorrow morning, finish cake balls to bring home for our families, and pack.
  9. Looking forward to some nice long car rides with Mike this weekend and the good talks we usually have during them.

Talk to me:

Have you felt like a million bucks recently? What are you looking forward to this weekend?
