I'm a Pink Belt
So today I am a “pink belt”. I have this dressy outfit with a pink bow and Brian always jokes with me that I look like I’m about to do karate, so he calls me a “pink belt.” This morning he saw me and said “Good morning Mrs. Miagi.” Fun.
I dreamt all night about Bono. I’m not sure why, besides the fact that we are true soul mates, ha ha. Then before the alarm clock went off I woke up and I knew that I should continue to lay there because KBCO would be playing U2. Sure enough, the alarm goes off at 6:20 and they were playing the end of “New Year’s Day”. What a great psychic connection. I wonder if he has the same psychic connection to me?? Silly, huh!
So I’ve been listening to U2 all morning and I’ve watched 5 different versions of “Walk On” on YouTube. I finally found my favorite version. Best advice ever in that song….”you’ve got to leave it behind.”
I’ve decided that I will have to make a really good U2 mix. I rarely ever listen to them on purpose, and I think now would be a good time to do so. Before there was Brian, there was Bono, and there always will be.
Check it out…how good do we look together??
And if you didn’t know:
So that will get me through!
My weekend turned out surprisingly ok. Since we were going to be packing I was sort of expecting a meltdown every ten minutes or so. But that didn’t happen. In fact, I think I only got teary twice. Here’s a recap.
Friday night was just terrible again. A lot like Friday. I won’t go into the details, but our night was wasted. Suddenly it was like 10 p.m., and we were hungry for dinner. So we went to McD’s and got some late night fast food. Somehow that made everything better. We even ended up cuddling when we went to bed.
Saturday we went out for breakfast and then I went down to the Cheesecake Factory for my friend Candice’s bridal shower/lunch. I ended up telling my college crew about the separation. I am getting better about telling people. I think telling Amanda showed me that it is ok. I wanted to tell Candice in case I didn’t feel like going to her wedding in LA.
Lunch went ok, but I felt like a lot of the attention was on me, which I did not want. I felt bad for Candice so I kept trying to get it back to her.
After lunch the girls went on to get massages and I went home to start the packing process. When I got home Brian had music blaring and he was packing. This got me motivated so I started too. At first I felt like the packing of our apartment was going to be a breeze. Then I changed my mind. Bleh. Packing. I have this need to purge a lot of stuff but then I look at it and I can’t. Oh well. I’m probably not in the best state of mind for that anyway.
So we packed and took breaks and packed more and took breaks. We did a lot of it together, which was nice. We ended up having a really fun time and we finished our night at Old Chicago’s. I was glad to go back and have a nice time, versus the last time we had been there (see related post). We then went home and went to bed and we were together, which was nice.
On Sunday it was overcast, which is perfect for watching football. Since I’m so obsessed with my football stuff I pretty much just watch football on Sundays. Brian’s favorite team, Jacksonville, was playing the lame Broncos. He went to his brother’s house to watch the game. I packed and did laundry while going crazy over the games. Here’s why:
My team name is “You Lost to a Girl!” As you can see, I kicked ass yesterday.
I’m also leading after three weeks.
After Jacksonville decidedly won the game, which was sweet, Brian came home. We packed more and then hung out and went to bed early.
So here we are today. I’m feeling pretty good and I can’t believe I have only two more days of work until I’m off.
Oh yeah, and in other really good news. Both of my friends who were having babies had them! My friend Cory, who was due on Oct. 10, had her little girl on Tuesday. My friend David had his little boy on Sunday! I cannot wait to see these babies!
