Friday Things

1. We went out to dinner for Joey’s birthday three times this week.  Three!!  And the celebration is not even over.  There’s still dinner with my family tonight and dinner with his extended family on Sunday.  Who does this kid think he is??

2. I HATE BUGS.  It’s the kind of hatred that necessitates bold and capitals.  If I have to go on one more run where bugs are continuously colliding with my face, I might freak out.  In fact, I will definitely freak out.

3. Every time I turn the light on in my kitchen it flickers for at least 15 seconds before coming completely on.  I feel like I’m having a seizure every morning.

4. I have at least four half written posts in my draft folder.  If I wasn’t so busy celebrating someone’s birthday every night, I might have time to actually finish one.

5.  I’ve been re-reading old posts of mine.  I love to read old things I wrote.  Which may explain why I have almost every single paper I’ve written since, oh, probably high school in a drawer in my closet.  Except I haven’t had a desire to re-read any of those… ever.

6.  I signed up for “America’s All Time Best 10K,” Bolder Boulder.  And it really is the best.  If I can finish, that is.

7.  Things I’m obsessed with this week include: oranges, obnoxious pop songs (Karmin and Justin Beiber, I’m looking at you!) and the smell of blossoms.

8.  My uncle sent me goodies from New Orleans this week.  I’m beyond excited and extremely grateful.

9. This week, I set a personal record of most blog followers in one day.  And I was pretty sure my readership was headed in the opposite direction.  Boo-ya!

10. My cousin flew in yesterday for a week long visit.  I don’t even know the last time she was in Colorado, but I’m pretty sure I was a baby.  So it doesn’t even count.  Also, it’s her birthday tomorrow, so the trip needs to be extra fun.  Challenge accepted.

Happy Friday!
