bla blee bla bla.
Updates since last post:
The Saturday event with the pirate clues fell through. Looks like I'm going to have to wait until NEXT weekend. Bummer.
The big birthday present idea fell through. BUMMER. Turned out that was going to be cruise tickets... Alaskan cruise tickets... He'd alreay put a down payment on the tickets, but apparently they just recently changed the rules so that you have to be 21 to go or either have someone 25+with you. LAME. One day...
SO glad today is hump day!!! (middle of the work week!) We should all only ever have to work 3 day work weeks. 8 hrs a day. What a life... Today's our work holiday party at 1. I'm excited for it because I've never been to one before, but I have the feeling it's going to be really lame... If we'd had more enrollments e would be going off campus somewhere for a few hours and closing down shop in the meantime, but seeing as we HAVEN'T had tons lately, it's in the building for MAYBE an hour, and I know I won't even get that much because people are going to have to take turns covering the front desk for me. Not very fair of me to stay for the entire party when others are having to cover me... We're doing the whole white elephant gift exchange deal. I copied a gift my moom was doing a week ago and lined up a cute six pack of cokes (the original glass bottles) and put some Scotch tape with it and put a note with it saying, "The holidays can be stressful. Kick back and relx with some scotch and soda." hahaha, I'm excited to see them open it. I put it in a victoria's secret bag- should make the recipient nervous at first. haha.
Marcy and Chris got here yesterday! For over the last week Marcy, Km and I had been planning on attending a yoga class at the studio by my place. Kim and I have gone there a handful of times and were excited to show it off to our yoga instructor sister. Kim called earlier in the day to confirm the classes for the evening, and they'd changed the schedule for the holidays. The class we wanted at 7 was gone, but there was a similar one at 8:30. We got there at 8:20, but the doors were still locked. We waited. And waited.... by the time 8:40 rolled around, we backed out. It was a disappointment, for sure. We were excited to go... Oh well. Marcy was REALLY tired anyways. She'd technically been up since 2 am our time and was planning on snowboarding this morning, so it was probably best for her to just go back to Boteen's (my parents) to crash.
Not sure how my evening will be spent tonight, but I hope it involves Marcy and Chris. I haven't seen Chris yet. I get off early today, too, so things are looking up. :) (I had to be here early... didn't dig waking up..)
Chris Taylor was prodding me a few weeks ago asking where all the pictures I took on Thanksgiving are... To be honest, I entirely forgot I even took pictures! haha. I'll try to get those up before Christmas..
(I ACTUALLY POSTED TWO BLOGS IN A SMALL AMOUNT OF TIME!)
p.s.- It's really peculiar how many of my nightmares are located in public restrooms... throughoout my entire life- I've ALWAYS had nightmares about public restrooms.. It had been a LONG time since I remembered having one until last night.. There's always some default with the restroom that I don't realize until it's too late. In last night's, the stall walls kept shrinking in height. That happens in a lot of them. The walls were low enough to make eye contact with everyone in each stall, sitting! and I was trying to change my clothes... it was awful. That and I believe at some point, inall of the other stalls girls were doing other girls hair- as if the restroom were a hair salon. But I was USING the restroom- once again. humiliating...

Exactly 1 month since last time
Dear imaginary followers,
(blogging has somewhat turned into an online journal for me. Nobody follows these anymore... oh well.)
While deciding to post something just now, I relaized it had been exactly a month since I last posted.
Things are going well at Fortis. I'm settling in, getting to know the people and my routine better. Some days are very stressful and have me running around headless for hours, but I think I secretly prefer those days over the trecherously slow days.. They go by fast, which makes the week go by faster, which brings me my weekends with Denver faster.
I am learning to truely value the time I get with him on the weekends on those stolen moments during the week that I get to see him.
I have so much I feel like talking about right now, but I'm only here for another ten minutes... I'm at work :P I don't like using D's laptop. The screen is wide and awkward and cuts off a lot...
Christmas is a week from tomorrow. :D Very excited for that. Also excited for this weekend. Denver needs an evening out to give me one gift- and with Marcy coming in from Philly over Christmas, we can garauntee that'll happen, so he's taking me out this Saturday for part one. Whatever shall it be... The only clue he will give me involves him talking like a pirate. That's it. The words aren't useful- it's just him talking like a pirate. He enjoys this because he knows it does me no good in cracking the mystery..
I've decided to calm down and wait this year. No more straining myself trying to figure out what it is and spoiling the suprise.
He said next month is going to be the expensive and exciting gift, though, for my birthday.
I can't believe I'm turning 20 next month! Seems so young, but at the same time- no longer a teenager? WEIRD! Ok, not that weird- I don't really feel like a teenager. When I started at Fortis everyone's average guess at my age was around 23- and I'm not going to say I don't feel like that most of the time. Denver are much more mature than most people our ages- but then again- he and I can be complete children as well. I love that man- it's ridiculous how much alike we are.
We got a christmas tree up! It's only 4 feet tall, but it's prelit and adorable! I have all of his gifts beneath it, perfectly wrapped. I love the presentation- I should open my own store where I wrap gifts, cuz I'm good at it! Not to be cocky....
Anyways-
just about quittin time. Better get things closed down.
Feel free to comment and let me know I'm not just talking to myself,
and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
