Happy Easter!

I hope everyone had a nice holiday.  This 3 day weekend was really nice, but next time I want to capitalize on my extra time off and go home.  It's been awhile since I've been home and I'm really starting to get homesick!

This weekend I slept a lot (what else did you expect?), I went shopping (clothes and food) and I watched movies.  I went out with a couple of friends on Friday night, so I spent some time with other people.  I was supposed to go out Saturday night as well, but with my debit card info being stolen they stopped it and I cut it up.  I have been using my credit card for everything else, however, I can't take cash out!  So I couldn't go out with Meghan to see a band downtown, since I had $2 cash to my name, and that's definitely not enough for cover, haha.

So I stayed in and watched The Hobbit.  To be honest, I thought it was boring, I kept checking the time to see when it would be over.  I used to love the cartoon, and I like the book, but this movie was just sllooowww.  And I really like Martin Freeman, so I was doubly depressed.  Today I cleaned up the apartment a bit, went to express and bought a new pair of pants and a work dress, and watched even more movies!

I start work again tomorrow, hopefully it's not weird.  I feel like coming back after more than just a weekend off is always a bit strange.  Add to that the mess I  made of an assignment I should have tried harder on from Thursday, and you've got an interesting mix.  I think I'm gonna leave early and try to get a Starbucks or something beforehand, get myself ready for the day.  I'm getting my hair cut afterward, I'm kind of excited! I hope it turns out well, I always have high hopes.... but even if it doesn't, I can deal with it! After the last fiasco, I feel I can deal with any hair related messes easily.

Mom sent me a whole box of candy, but I'm trying to be healthy so it's getting eaten very very slowly.  Like one caramel egg a day, lol.

Doctor Who and Game of Thrones both premiered this weekend, I thought Dr. Who was a bit of a disappointment, and I am still waiting for GoT.  Finally some new, good TV to look forward to.

I have finished 24 books so far this year.  When I felt bad on Thursday I bought myself a new book, but it's coming in the mail (not on my kindle) so I have to wait to read it.  Yeah that's a thing that I do, I spend money to make myself feel better.  I also bought a yoga mat to do some exercises on the wood floor, so hopefully that will make me feel loads better if I start feeling down again.  I like to do small exercises, I hate running.

We put an ad out for a new roommate!  We got a few responses, and have a couple of meetings set up to figure out who we want to live with.  I'm excited, I like living with more people (though with Meredith it was kind of awful).  They are all younger than me, but what's new.  I feel like a dinosaur here.

I had bought a dress for Christine's wedding, but I am returning it.  It didn't fit exactly right, and it was a bit different than the picture online showed it.  So I'll keep looking!  I looked for something today at Express (since everything was 40% off) but I didn't see anything I would want to wear.  I want to wear something different- not just a boring'o solid dress.

Oh gosh, whenever I sit down to write these I realize I don't have much to say! At least not that I am ok with anyone and everyone reading, haha.
