happy august!

last night was so much fun! kate and i saw "the ugly truth" - gerard butler is insanely gorgeous - after we ordered chinese food. we wanted to try something totally random, so we got fried cheese wantons; not the best thing i've ever had, and i don't know that i'd order them again, but they weren't bad. as lulu said, kind of like potato and cheese inside a crispy shell.

we stayed up pretty late last night, but i'm not really tired and i've already done a bunch of things around the house. i find i can be more productive these days when no one is home. it will be relaxing - i hope - to be alone for a few days. even if i do hope to be accomplishing a lot, i consider any time when my family is not around (excepting lulu) to be more relaxing than when they are around.

the beginning of august also marks my last two weeks working at the office! i can't wait to get out of there, but leaving also means i'll have only one week left until OL training starts, and then classes...

i'm getting a nervous feeling in my stomach right now, just thinking about it. i want to go back to "my little bubble," as kate calls it (it's true!), but the summer is moving so fast now and i'm afraid i won't get to do everything i wanted to do. there are still several people i have not seen since may or june, if not at all yet, and i won't be able to forgive myself if i let it go undone.

back to productivity!
