on the news

As I sit here cuddled up in my blanket that I have had since the age of 2, I realize that I am getting old. I am enjoying the news, channel 7 news to be exact! I feel that I need to be more educated. The other day I found myself googling how to learn the location of the states. I live here in the US and I am not proud to say I don't know where anything geography is! After finding a website that allowed me to play a game where I would drag that states to their proper spots, I feel a lot more confident in my state locating abilities haha. However, it took me a whole hour.

While my mind was wandering at work yesterday, I started thinking of things that make me, "me." The fact that I find easy excitement in the simplest things. I enjoy socks, I do not enjoy finding matching pairs. 90% of the time I am wearing socks, they do not match. The other 10% is when they are most likely holiday socks, and those of course match. Because I just have to buy socks that are a symbol of the season I am in. I enjoy mail. When I am sending out letters at work, I have to make sure that the stamp is perfectly straight with the corner, a couple millimeters away from the edge. Also, they need to be cute stamps, like the ones I put on our statement envelopes are Disney ones that include Up, Toy Story, Wall-E, etc.

I tend to laugh at my own jokes and I find nothing wrong with that. As long as I am having a good time, shoot. I love when I can find a CD where every song is enjoyable. During Christmas time, I pull out my must have reindeer antler ears and big red nose for my car and sport that around town. On my drive to work in the mornings I give myself a private concert. I am pleased with the fact that I am a jeans and t-shirt kind of person and occasionally enjoy dressing up. I will try anything outdoorsy as long as it doesn't involve stomach jumpy feelings or bees. Man, I hate bees.

Today, I received something from RCC in the mail. Let me just tell you that I have had my Associates Degree for over a year technically, but the certificate finally came. One small degree down, Bachelors here I come!
