So it is barely Saturday (1:27am to be exact), but I'm up and figured I should take advantage of the free time to write before tomorrow.  A side note:  I don't count it as the next day until I go to sleep...it's one of my weird things...it doesn't matter if it's 5 am on Wednesday; if I haven't gone to bed, it's still considered to be Tuesday to me.  But anyway, tomorrow I have to help my mom make a PowerPoint presentation for her class over a chapter that I'm pretty sure she hasn't read yet, take care of Audrey, and go to work.  Good times. 

This past week went pretty quickly.  I'm loving the new Britney Spears song "Hold It Against Me."  This is something else you'll learn about me...I am a HUGE Britney fan.  Even when she lost her damn mind there for a while, I was still rooting for her and loving her music. Here's the song:

And yes, I realize it's nothing new or whatever, it's a dance song...it's Britney Spears.  She's a fun entertainer...take it for what it is. :)  I'm sure Pete will have something to say about it, to which I reply:  Ke$ha...he'll know what I mean.

So, aside from my Britney love...what else?  Oh!  I've applied for some full-time positions at Macy's, which is where I work now.  I'm on-call, which means I work when other people can't.  This wasn't bad during the holidays when we were open extended hours and lots of people needed time off.  Now?  I'm lucky to get 13 hours a week, which is just not cutting it.  Fingers crossed that I hear from them this week about an interview, at the very least.  It would definitely help with getting an apartment.  I think that is going to happen in April.  After the trip to Indiana in March to get Isabel...because until then, all my "extra" money (hahaha!) is going towards the trip.

What else, what else?  The working out-thing is not working out...somehow my trainer and I keep cancelling on each other.  I should be seeing him three times a week, and the most we've managed the past two weeks is once each week.  Hmmm...maybe get a new trainer?  Who knows.  At least I'm still going to the gym.  It's getting to be spring, dammit, and I am NOT going to be stuck wearing pants all summer.  Granted, I wear dresses now, but I want to be able to wear shorts or even a swim suit without feeling like a beached whale!  I'm just going to have to make sure that I'm getting to the gym at least three days a week, whether or not I'm meeting with Matthew (my trainer).

Have gotten Pete sucked into "Dexter," which is awesome.  We're watching season one, and about halfway through.  I watched it so many years ago, that I've forgotten some of what happened, and some of the characters that are...shall we say "no longer with us."  I had to keep myself from saying something to that effect about some of the people when we first started watching...it's fun though.  And he makes me watch this River Cottage show about a British guy who grows his own food and raises animals.  I give him a lot of shit about it, but it's actually pretty interesting. :)

I need to find something to read.  I really need to go to the BMV and get a new license and then I can get a new Social Security card and FINALLY get a library card.  That will be my goal for the week.  To get those three things.  God, I'm going to be standing in a lot of lines.  Puke.  But it must be done.
