myspace, pyspace

So lately I have become addicted to one website known as 'myspace'. For some reason, I just can't get enough. Sadly, due to this, I have been neglecting my blog and to my faithful readers, I appologize. Today is a day that I have been waiting for for many weeks and months to come. And the best part of it all is that I am skipping work for it! Yes! My good friend, Shelley and I have taken the day off work and are heading one hour south to a city I like to call "targetville" aka Bellingham, Washington. Shelley and I will spend this day, yes ALL stinkin day...SHOPPING! To any guys out there, I am sure this sounds like pure tourture. But to any girls this is truly heavenly! Wish me luck on my shopping spree and we will see what I come home with! Off we go....

V-day

Valentine's day is not really a big deal at the Brown household as Derek thinks it is just a Hallmark holiday and blah blah blah. I don't really mind, but deep down I also would be okay with making a big deal out of it and doing something fancy and fun. Well, the big and fancy part didn't happen. But when I got home last night Derek had bought me flowers accompanied my strawberries and chocolate. We had dinner, he did homework then later we watched Law and Order and ate the strawberries and chocolate. What else could I ask for?! It was perfect :)


P.S. longest run yet accomplished today-45 minutes! And it was gorgeous outside! hehe!

Sick and tired

For 4 days now I have been sick...I mean down and out sick! Sleeping, hardly eating and watching far too much TV. I woke up Friday morning with a 102 degree (fahrenheit, that is) fever - random. I was feeling a bit down the night before but not expecting to wake up with a high fever like that. So I had to call in sick and actually had to reschedule a job interview that I was very much looking forward to (not something you want to have to reschedule). A lot of my friends have been sick too so there is for sure somehting going around. It's crazy around here! Usually when I get sick (unless it's something major), it's about one solid day of feeling icky and then a day to recover and I'm good to go. But this has been 4 days of the icky. My fever came and it went for 3 days. Up and down, up and down. Talk about exhausting! I had to call in sick to work again today...and apparently so did every one else. My poor boss had to cover 3 different people shifts all alone. But the day is done and I will be heading back to work tomorrow no matter how I feel because my guilt has overcome my sickness and that's just the way I work. But rest assured, I am feeling a lot better than I did 3 days ago. Yay!
