quick update and a picture

As of now, I'm apparently the front runner for this job but they are still interviewing...oh well, I'll continue to wait.


This is my favorite of the most recent pictures of 2 boys and a berry. Barefeet- must be related to me! :-)

My latest mantra and a movie

So my latest saying is that I am not as young as I once was. And the sad thing is it seems to have happened overnight! I can't do these up till midnight bouts very often anymore and it took me a bit longer than I expected to get over my move...I guess I'm getting older. It's no good when I wake up every morning and am incredibly tired, as if I've just run a marathon or something similar. I'm guessing it doesn't get better as time goes by but at least I know I'm not alone. To try and alleviate this problem, I've started going to bed at 9:45 each night (quite early for me!) and getting up at about 6:45 so I can have an easy, not so rushed morning. It's been pretty good so far but we'll see how long that lasts. I must say it's definitely been helpful to not have a cable or Internet connection right now! I'm not spending loads of time wasting away on my couch or computer chair as I have a tendency to do.

So why is it that Princeton people have to work on Presidents' Day? Almost everyone else I know is off today but no, here we are - ridiculous! (And working hard, can't you tell?)

I saw Music and Lyrics this weekend with some friends and must admit I was pleasantly surprised! I've grown quite caustic about romantic comedies and generally have a negative view of them but this was actually enjoyable. The Pop song was a)hysterical and b) quite catchy, as it's still in my head. There were a couple of scenes that could have been done away with but overall an enjoyable movie. The soundtrack might go on my list of wants - there was some great 80's music going on!

That's all for now - have a marvelous day!

Facebook

Amy invited me to join Facebook and it's been pretty fun so far. If you are interested, I think this link will get you to my basic profile. Otherwise, just ignore this post completely.


And in other news, after nearly a week I finally got my work computer fixed and am now back at my desk - yeah!!

I love Freecycle!

For the uninformed, Freecycle is like Craig's List but it's all free! I put some stuff on this morning I wanted to get rid of before I move and it was spoken for in about 30 minutes! Now that's what I call great! I don't know why I didn't follow my sister's lead on this one earlier...they've gotten a ton of great stuff! (I've followed her lead on lots of other things.) If you want to see if there's one in your area, check out www.freecycle.org.

My move is going well and will be complete on Saturday after I've moved all my furniture. I'm dead tired and want to be in one place or the other so I can't wait until I wake up Sunday morning in my new place. I think my mom put it well last night when I was complaining to her and she said that I feel like a nomad because I like things completed and done and this is so not completed and done. She also said I'm a nester, (I have the ability to nest all by myself), so not having a place to settle down in bothers me. Stuck between two places is not my idea of fun. I go to my house and it's half packed and empty but then I go to my apt. and it's all boxes - neither is very appealing. Two more days...and counting!

We won!

That's all I have to say about last night's game. :-) Oh, that and the rock, paper, scissors Bud light commercial was my favorite.
