Friday Five

Can you still do this on a Friday night? Whatever, I’m doing it.

1. I just got home from the Capital Humane Society’s Annual dinner. I volunteered for their marketing team so I went to dinner for free. I ate dinner and now I’m in my PJ’s that say “Santa’s Little Helper” on them. I’ve clearly given up. 🙂
2. As I was leaving work today my Sales Manager gave me 4 FREE tickets to the Bon Jovi concert at the new Arena on Sunday. The tickets are on the floor and not too far back. I’m excited. I’m taking my mom and dad and a friend. Should be a good time. Free is free, right?
3. I’m feeling much better. It has been a week. I’ve dealt with some heartache (read: a break-up) and then a subsequent text from him on Wednesday, telling me how much this (the break-up) sucks and that he wants to talk to me, but doesn’t think that’s fair to me. You broke up with me!! Sheesh. I will survive and get through this. I’m strong. The normal happy, positive Melissa is (mostly) back! I missed her.
4. I am working tomorrow night at Corky-the class is sold out. Fingers crossed for some decent tips. Sunday I’m going to the Pumpkin patch with friends. I was supposed to go with the ex manfriend and these friends. But I just can’t be with him right now…even though he thinks we can still be friends. Not right now and not so soon. 
5. After puppy-sitting for 5 days I realized something very important about myself: I’m NOT ready for a dog yet. At least not one that needs a lot of work like a young dog. I like my freedom. 

I’m going to read some Harry Potter (I’m re-reading the series. I’m on book 6) and relax. I think I may even take a bubble bath. I’m living dangerously! 🙂 Sometimes a Friday night can be this chill and it’s ok. I think I’m allowed some ‘me’ time. 

Happy Weekend Friends!
