Snow!

Yay for snow! This is my courtyard at my apartment complex...so pretty. I took a lovely walk in all this snow down to the grocery store. I was expecting it to be crazy crowded because as soon as people see one snow flake they think all stores will run out of milk, but twasn't. Apparently no one wanted to drive in all this gorgeous snow but since I don't own a car twasn't an issue for me. Yay for snow!

So I spent the afternoon making chili and trying to clean off my desk. Sadly enough (or not, depending on your perspective), snow and chili were the highlight of my weekend. I spent Friday night fighting with Matty over evidentiary standards in the American judicial system and then I went to work on Saturday. But I did enjoy the sleeping in! AND when I got home on Saturday I had Girl Scout Cookies waiting. Yay! Now, off to a new week....but maybe tomorrow will be a snow day! Here's hoping!

Happy Birthday to the Presidents

Yay for the Presidents! Happy birthday to all of them. If I ever become president, and it is highly probable, I will insist that my friends and family buy me presents and make a cake on both President's Day and my actual birthday. But for now, it shall suffice as a wonderful reason not to go to work!

For all those interested I celebrated my Valentine's Day this past weekend. While Saturday was relatively ruined by a losing college basketball game (0ver which Captain Matty was devastated), the weekend wasn't a total loss. I did manage to see Breach, that real-life spy movie. It was good, emotionally complex and whatnot. And then I got my Valentine's present (a stunning and gorgeous ruby necklace) from my man. Sunday Matty and I made the best chocolate Valentine's day cupcakes ever then went out to eat at the fancy Blue Duck Tavern. We made ourselves chubby because after we split the Blue Duck's homemade apple pie we came home and ate those cupcakes.

I sent Matty home with a dozen cupcakes (I am gonna have a big fat boyfriend), sent four to his parents, and am bringin' four cupcakes to work for my officemate. But that leaves me four whole cupcakes for me! I am gonna eat one every day for the rest of this week. Now that I have fancy jewelry I can go head and get big and fat! Yay!

Big News!

As many of you know I have slacked quite the bit in terms of the blogging world. And once I was gone I felt like I needed a big ole' comeback so that you all forget and forgive my lapse. And a big comeback requires big news! After all, my sister is probably going to Italy for the summer and my brother got a big, fat, rich lawyer job. So I have been thinking for the past couple of weeks about what kind of news I could possibly have to compare to my darling siblings.
School?....same old, same old. Plus, it's not like I can talk about my patients.
Work?...eh, dull and bothersome.
Personal life?...my gal Katharine left me for the great white north. That is sad news, not the big, happy news that belongs on this blog. My lovely boyfriend, Captain Matty, may move to my neighborhood, ending our long-distance relationship...but that isn't news cause it hasn't happened yet.
But today, mere minutes ago, I found my big comeback news in this lovely picture. I am pleased to announce that this celebrity and I have the same thong. I can tell you that it came from Victoria's Secret and that it is sitting in my dresser drawer as I speak (or type). It is my fervent hope, however, that this one minor underclothing incident is and will be the only thing this woman and I ever have in common.
