Thursday, Thursday...

What a weird day, eh? I don't get it. Yesterday felt like a weekend because I'm done with finals and I didn't have to work (which was excellent), but of course I stayed up way too late with Holli and we were probably both late for work today, and very tired. I know -- a boyfriend should do better...ahem...a fiance should do better. I will.

The office is so quiet today and I love it. People are at meetings or on vacation, and I'm in my little, overcrowded with cheesy promo items cubicle loving the solitude of a mediocre lunch hour. It's amazing how we find our happiness in even the most inane things - like having free bottles of Aquafina water at my disposal everyday at work. I'm especially happy because our International Affairs rep gave me cookies (that I can't friggin' eat), one of the lobbyists gave me gourmet cocoa and wassail in a little mug...and once again, because I am at work, alone...and updating my blog whereas I should probably be researching my Indian Water bills or Corporation Commission regulation. But I can always do that later.

Stress levels have been decent, although I feel an aneurysm coming on everytime I remind myself I'm getting married in March. But she's worth it - unless it kills me, then that would obviously be bad.

Obviously.

I am excited to spend Christmas with HJK's family. I really like her parents. The siblings I know are great...but I have two more to meet. Isn't that weird? I'm getting married in March and haven't even met two of her siblings. Hmmm. Oh well...I think her family seems ok with it. My family....hmm. Well, my dad's side is just a sheer enigma to me. They can be jerks sometimes, true, but I'll just have to find it in my heart to forgive them for NOT COMING TO MY GRADUATION. I can't believe I spent $80 alone on their invitations. My mom's family is pretty chill -- much love and respect to them.

Ok, I'm rambling now, so I'm off to do something productive like world peace...
