the move starts tomorrow...

instead of packing up my bedroom, bathroom and few pink kitchen items, I've spent the entire day in the living room watching abc family and sporcling (http://www.sporcle.com/). I have a feeling that tomorrow I'm really going to wish that I had done some packing...but oh well. I don't really have much stuff to pack, so hopefully it won't take too long. boring.

in other news, I have more puppy pictures! click on the photo to visit the kennel's website.
after I'm all moved in to the new house, I can start getting everything ready for cute little puppy. I should know by the end of this week or the beginning of next week which puppy is mine...finally! also, any and all name suggestions are appreciated.

I've been running 3-4 times a week and it's great. we celebrated the national day of running by running a 6 a.m. 5k and I got my best time yet. hopefully by the end of the summer I'll lower it even more.

okay, enough boredom for today...next time I post, I'll be in the new house...so get excited!

summer is finally here!

today is my first day of summer. I'm on a 10 month contract at my current job, so I don't have to work from June 1 to August 3...it's incredible. I'm more excited about summer this year than any year before. there are things I will do and things that I just want to do. we'll see how that goes...

things I will do this summer:
  • I will move into my new rent house (in 9 days!)

  • I will drive to northern Oklahoma to pick up my puppy (he'll be one of the ones in these photos...I'll know exactly which one next week!)

  • I will drive to Manhattan, Kansas to visit my best friend in the entire world.

  • I will get a tan (I've already been in the pool today!).

  • I will run at least three 5k's (first one at 6 a.m. Wednesday morning!).

things I want to do this summer:
  • I want to learn how to golf.
  • I want to become a legit blogger.
  • I want to work on my research paper...kind of.
  • I want to go to to the beach.
  • I want to go to UNC - Chapel Hill to visit another bff.
  • I want to create a font!

so there's that. things I will do and things I want to do. now that they're all in nice bullet form, I can actually start to do them...maybe.

off to read my newest Barnes and Noble find: "It's Kind of a Funny Story" by Ned Vizzini.
