Good News Minute...

i just need to share the things that i am excited about. i used to not be openly excited about things because i believed in jinxing. now not so much. most of the time i can accept that what i want isn't always what is right for me. so here is my list of exciting things that apparently are the right thing for me:

1) the last day of work: it has been a great experience to learn and grow around great people and the celebration afterward
2) locking the double bolt for the last time in a long while
3) seeing ohio, i don't know anything about the state but i'm excited to see it (i love seeing new places)
4) seeing boof
5) seeing friends in utah
6) seeing real snow (and playing in it)
7) seeing friends in idaho (including the newly married ones weird i have married friends).
8) the new year and celebrating (i don't know what exactly what i'm doing but i'm excited to celebrate)
9) my friend's mission call

so there i'm excited. so excited i could shout it from the mountain tops. not really.
but i'm excited. what are you excited about?

quick one...
i was sitting at the front desk (where i often wish i could answer the phone "dunder mifflin this is sam", it works perfectly) as one of my co-workers was leaving (it's still weird that i have co-workers) she was excited to get on with the rest of her evening, while i still had another hour left, she expected that i be excited for her departure. i was excited, not jumping for joy, but excited none the less, she didn't buy it. she then said that when ever she mentioned my going back to school i would know exaclty how many days it would be (i don't but 3 weeks does equal 21 days right?? no one is counting though). she says my whole face changes.
though i am extatic to go back to school i'm even more stoked to see Boof!!!

also, i've decided that i love taking trips and the money i save through the next year or less will be dedicaded to taking a trip to europe...even if i have to do it alone...so here's to penny pinching!!

Random Thoughts....

Okay what is the deal with soup…
At work there are several people that eat soup on a regular basis and any time I see someone eating it I think ‘’ what is the big flipppin’ deal?” its water with stuff floating in it.
I will confess that on a cold day I like to have a small bowl of soup but some hot chocolate would probably do the trick for me instead though knowing the little that I do about nutrition, I don’t think that would be the better option.
There are several eateries in the city, several big chains, that are devoted to soup, not solely but soup is the “main course” If you will and the fact that in this economic turn these places are still in business says something So riddle me this, what could all these people see in soup?
