TGIF!!


And no, I don't mean as in the Friday night ABC television shows we all grew-up with, I'm talking "TGIF" as in, "if this week were one day longer and I had to be in the office for 8 more hours, I think I might die," kind of TGIF!! Does anybody else feel like that this week??

Maybe it's just because I'm a little stressed-out this week. I've got so much to do, and school will be starting back up in no time. My family is coming down for a weeklong visit starting tomorrow, and then I will be packing and moving in with AB the week after that. Then, I've got my orientation on the 3rd, and I'll need to buy all my books and school supples, and my first day of class on the 7th!! And THEN, on the 19th, AB and I will be running our first 5K together up in Greenville. AND THEN, we will be celebrating our anniversary on the 30th, which means I'll be working on completing the anniversary gifts WHILE I'm working on everything else!! SHEESH! Seeing it all typed out like that, I'm tired just reading it!!


Until next time,

So Much To Do...

I apologize for the span in posts -- I've just been so busy lately!! My birthday was on Saturaday (post to follow soon), and this weekend, I'm heading up to Greensboro to meet up with my parents. A.B. is also heading out-of-town, so we've been trying to coordinate our schedules.

On that note, A.B. mentioned the other night that he thought it would be fun for us to run a 5K race together. Now, running a 5K is something that I've wanted to do for a while. I used to be an avid runner -- running at least a mile or two every day. But I've fallen out of that pattern over the past year or so. So when he mentioned this, I was a little nervous. Not only for the fact that I'll need to get back into shape to complete it, but because of some emotional baggage when it comes to exercise and a signifigant other. Not quite ready to post the details of *all that*, but let's just say, I've got a few hang-ups about it.

Long story short, I agreed that we should/would do a 5K in the next few months. The one we've found that we're going to do in June is in Greenville, The Candlelight Run.

My sister and I actually talked about doing this very run last summer, but we both had different things going on and just never got around to signing up for it. A.B. and I went to the Nike outlet last night and invested in some new running shoes. I ended up with these:
I'll be sure to keep ya'll posted on the progress... And I'm gonna do my best to finish up my birthday post tonight -- I promise!
