Hello friends!

Check me out! I did my hair today! Go team! I also picked out my outfit last night so it was super easy getting ready today. I love when a plan comes together!

In other news…

• I’ve started Christmas shopping. I bought my mom something today (though it might be for her birthday, as that’s December 14) and I bought my fiance something last night. I also have started addressing our Christmas cards and ordered Christmas stamps for them as well. I really want to be done with all of my shopping early. Most of my family have birthdays in the last few months of the year. Nephew 3 was Sept. 19, Nephew 2 is Oct. 28, Nephew 1 is Nov. 20, Dad is Nov. 22, soon-to-be-step-daughter is Nov. 26, Bestie 1 is Dec. 5, future Mother-in-Law is Dec. 7, and Mom is Dec. 14. Not to mention Christmas!! It’s an expensive time of year!
• We’re going to Buffalo for Thanksgiving again and I will be running the Turkey Trot there on Thanksgiving Day with my future bro-in-law. We did it last year as well. It’s an 8k, so just under 5 miles. I hope I don’t regret it if it gets too cold. I tend to wuss out when the temps get too low.
• If I talk about the bathroom standoff, do you know what I’m talking about? Maybe it is a girl thing, but when faced with the need to do more than number one in a public restroom with multiple stalls, many women will simply sit in silence until the other parties leave, so she can do her business in private. Well, that happens a lot around here (University campus, classes going on, everybody poops, etc) but when you do the bathroom standoff in a restroom with only TWO stalls, you make the line build up and people get cranky. JUST DO IT. We all do. 😉
• Pushing Daisies is now on Amazon Prime video! I LOVED that show when it was on tv in 2007. So now I only let myself watch it while I’m running. It makes the time go by very quickly!

Have a great week, cats!
