saturday morning

May 31, 2008

I got myself out of bed this morning around 8:45 a.m. because the sun was shining on my face and I was hot. I don’t think I would have awoken but for those two things. I love sleeping in, and that’s why I love Saturdays the best. Cleo sleeps with me every night, and not just at the foot of the bed, either. She likes to burrow underneath the covers for awhile, then comes out, only to burrow again awhile later. I like this little pattern we have together. This morning as soon as I got out of bed she moved into my spot. She thinks she owns this bed. I would say she’s going to get a rude awakening…

Checking In

May 29, 2008

My friend Lauren from school called me today and was all, “Are you freaking out about the NCLEX yet? How much have you studied? How are you studying? When do you start work? What is our first week going to be like? Did you realized NCLEX is less than two weeks away?!?” Um, I wasn’t freaking out until I talked to her. OH MY GOSH NCLEX IS LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AWAY. AND I START MY JOB ON MONDAY, MONDAY AS IN FOUR DAYS FROM TODAY. So excuse me while I go hide myself away with some Quakes rice snacks, my dog, and my review book. Hopefully I shall emerge at some point this weekend for some air.

Purgatory

May 27, 2008

David: I’m going to go to purgatory. Me: No you’re not! David: Yes I am, and it’s going to one giant poker game. But really if you win the game you go to hell, and I’ll try really hard to win but then I won’t because I stink, and then I’ll go to heaven! Me: … David: What? You don’t believe me? Why not? Me: Because the Bible doesn’t say anything about that. David: It doesn’t say anything about purgatory being a giant poker game? Me: No. David: Huh. I think we just interpret it differently.

talent show

May 26, 2008

My mom teaches 5th grade and my youngest brother Barry teaches theater, both at the same small charter school. On Friday night the school had a talent show and Barry asked me, my fiance David, and my brother David to be judges. This was SO much fun and I highly recommend it if you get the chance. There were really only 5 or so acts out of 27 that were much good, but it was all so entertaining. We had some Hannah Montana, some High School Musical, a lot of sort-of dancing and sort-of singing to songs I’ve never heard going on. I had to be told MULTIPLE times that I was not allowed to give points based on cuteness….
