Yay for time off!

Yay for five days off! I am completely looking forward to relaxing and doing whatever I want for the next five days. Well I'm going to spend today doing whatever I want and actually making a to do list of things I need to get done. I don't get anything done without lists, which is a little pathetic but at least I am willing to admit to my semi A.D.D nature.

So big news! I BOUGHT A CAR! My very first brand new car and I am a mess of mixed emotions. I love the car. I love to be in the car. I want to drive everywhere in the car. Read the manual, figure out all it's bells and whistles, get to know it inside and out. I have entered into a long committed relationship with this car that I hope will last a minimum of 6 years because that is when it will be paid off. Unless I happen to meet a doctor who falls in love with me and pays it off in less time, which would be even greater! However, even though I know I will be fine in making the payments, it is a HUGE purchase. I mean an 18,000 dollar purchase. Something I do not take lightly and something I unfortunately had to do without much thought since the bumper car took a shit on me, was not driveable and I needed a car within a weeks time. So one thing crossed off my new life list for the year.

I have to say that this year has been an absolute whirlwind. Sometimes you think that your life is so stagnant when you are caught up in a routine. Wake up, go to work, come home, clean go to bed do it all again. It isn't until you look back on your year that you realize how much you have changed and how much you have accomplished. I was reflecting on my life the other day and I am at a loss with how much life has changed for me in a years time.

Since October of last year I have done so many things which include the following: A life changing break up; moving into my very own apartment; getting a promotion and a raise at work; writing and starting the process of publishing my first book; buying my new car; losing lovers; losing friends; making new friends. And soon to add to that; changing schools and careers. This technically has all been done in less than a years time. It's exciting and I can't wait to see what my quarter life crisis year has in store for me!

More later...gotta go get a workout in!
