Fantabulous Friday!

Today was awesome! I was in such a great mood all day just from hearing from Michael! It moved by so quickly today! The minute I got to work I was immediately bombarded by my HEAD BOSS to go work on ID/Access/Security Cards for the entire district. This took from 8-12 and then I was off to lunch with my dad to Fuzzy's Tacos, I ordered the wrong thing! I never order enchiladas, but it was loud in there and the lady may not have heard me correctly, oh well, it was the best chicken enchilada I've ever had and the best Mexican Rice! When I got back, I had to set up for a meeting, pick up and deliver the mail at my office and then distribute it and then deliver ID cards to the IS department. I left work shortly after to go get my TB test done for college, it wasn't that bad, kind of weird though.


I came home and had a huge novel from Michael and now I've got to go respond to it. It was so amazingly sweet.

My First Dog Tag!

Today I got my first dog tag from Michael! This was the highlight of my day! Although, it was not a real pair with his information on it, it still is amazing! It is gold and it says Private Property of a Soldier! :) The letter was amazing! Front and back it was 11 pages! :) I am still so excited that I can't even write yet!

I got a bob today! It's really stacked in the back, I just hope I can flatten out the sides more than they are right now because they do look a little poofy. My appointment for my Vial Test (allergy shots) took like 2 hours when it should've only taken 45 minutes at most, I felt horrible showing up the my hair appointment almost 30 minutes late!

Tonight my parents are picking up our brand new ECO FRIENDLY PRIUS and they're getting us Bosses Pizza for dinner! I can't wait, I'm in a Pizza Mood!

So my brain fart of the day was when I went to Taco Bell and asked for my Taco without lettuce and with Whipped Cream rather than Sour Cream! I was so embarrassed but I'll admit it was something I'm sure they laughed their asses off about. I had to move boxes at work that were half my size, that was not a lot of fun, but I did find a dolly and told Angel it'd be his first and last time he'd ever see a girl rolling one with boxes on it. I think I finally found the last of all the leaks in our brand new building, at least I hope!


I am gonna go check out the NEW PRIUS!!!

Wishy Washy Wednesday

I am convinced! The Pony Express DOES still exist. Why is it that my uncle can receive letters overseas in 10 days or less and it takes two weeks to send a letter and receive a response back from my boyfriend who is in South Carolina when he replies the day he receives it and sends the very next day? It's sad. Oh well, it makes the anticipation all the more greater, but I was really hoping it would be here today.

Great News: I'm done with my surgery Post-Op!!! Yay! If you didn't know, I had a septoplasty back in June as well as had cysts removed. This means that I'm on my own now and everything is good with my nose! :) I can breathe and I've also been sinus infection free for going on 2 months now! Hallelujah!

Today at work, this dude came to put in tile in the bathrooms and he was nice looking, but, whenever he was flirting with me, I got all standoffish and weird-ed out by it. I'm attached without a ring on my finger to my soldier, but that's a good thing because after two years together I couldn't even think about possibly wanting to be with someone but Michael.

I bought encouragement cards today and an Anniversary card today, as well as got prints of pictures of my camera to send to him. I can't wait!!! He just began his 4th week of training today which means he's in his 2nd week of white phase. We're half way through basic now!!!

I'm going to go put our 2 year anniversary card and letter together so I can hopefully have it to him by August 3!

I'm getting a Bob tomorrow!!!! :)

Too Hot Tuesday

So today started off grand! Immediately had work set out for me today and the day didn't slow down until Lori and Shaun brought me a Sonic Route 44 Dr. Pepper on their daily Happy Hour run. That was when I went back to Jennifer's cubical and read amusing facebook updates. Once that was all over the day slowed almost to what seemed like a halt around 3. I sat at my desk from 3-5:30 waiting to go to the Texas Rangers Baseball Game with my dad.

We went to the Rangers game with one of my Dad's work buddies who is a retired Colonel. I got to discuss the army with someone who was fondly familiar. :) The game was great! Elvis hit a home run and we won the game! We played the Detroit Tigers. Today over all went by pretty fast. It was nice to see Norman walking at work today. It's crazy to see someone that had pretty much tore apart their lower body into pieces back in May is now walking, someone who had an extremely high chance of possibly never being able to walk again.

Extremely good day today!

Sluggish Days

So Michael has been gone 4 weeks today, yes, it doesn't feel like it's been that long! I got a legal phone call this week rather than an "illegal" snuck phone call which I'm sure someday he'll regret because his mom said the Sergeants know everything and his battalion will all pay for it at the end of training. :( He seems to be doing great! I'm waiting on his two most recent letters so I'm checking the mailbox because I know they're on their way.

This morning I woke up with a gas pocket in my upper groin area and it was so painful I became sick. I ate breakfast and almost fainted from the light headed-ness and nausea on my living room floor. Instead, I just sprawled out and slept another 20 minutes and it went away, thankfully! :) So I get to work and find the cleaning services did a half ass job this weekend, disgusts me as usual. Incase you didn't know, one of my daily to-do list items at work is to inspect what the cleaning services did overnight. Not to mention there was NOTHING for me to do at work today except for check for non-existent leaks that didn't appear until right when I was headed out of the office. JOY!


Seeing Michael's mom today was great! It's always comforting to see her because it always brings back memories. Since he's been gone, I've visited her twice. It's funny, now she tells me some stories about Michael growing up. We get lots of laughs!!! :)
