For those who do not know... I love bathtub crayons. Not that I necessarily play with them in the bathtub... very often... however, they do have other uses for which they can be of service! Once upon a time I bought some magnets for our fridge that are like little whiteboards you can leave messages on. I intended them to be little spots where Michael and I could leave messages for eachother. However, it quickly became apparent that sometimes these magnets were overlooked. Well, for those who did not know... Michael and I are married. And this means... we share a bathroom! So... I began leaving messages with bathtub crayons. A message written on the bathroom mirror is pretty hard to miss since I find that most people at least take one look in the mirror before leaving the house.
Our messages range from, could you bring me this to school today, or could you make sure I'm awake by this time, to the more frequent visitors on our mirror... things like "I LOVE YOU" ... you know... things like that. I probably shouldn't provide too many examples, or let's be honest, you might just gag. But tonight, it's "MY HUSBAND IS THE BEST" because he just plain is. For multiple reasons of course... but he is.
Also, I have felt an extreme desire to decorate for Christmas early this year but I have been resisting! So.... I put up Christmas window clings in our kitchen window just to satisfy the urge for now. But I haven't put up any Christmas trees, so I'm not cheating the wait until after Thanksgiving rule... at least not really really cheating it. Anyway, that was random. But I thought I'd share.

Of Birthdays
Well, Happy Birthday to me, right?! Right.
This year I turn an odd number. A prime number even. Not sure how I feel about that. Not that I'm superstitious of course... just prefer even numbers. And this birthday almost turned into a disaster being stuck at work the night before... not having my mint chocolate chip icecream... having a midterm due at 11:59pm.. But I managed, albeit haphazardly, to turn in my midterm at 11:58pm (and hopefully I managed a grade high enough to keep my A in the class). I messaged one of my friends who gave me the intel I needed to find a gas station with a close enough flavor substitute for my traditional mint chocolate chip icecream (saved the day!). And while today I have another test to take (which will involve lots of studying), and a silly group meeting to go to... I got the day off from work (well, not my late night shift). But I'll have some freedom tonight with Michael. And that'll be great.
This year looks complicated. But it has a lot of potential. I'm becoming the manager at my work in just 2 short months. By then my baby boy could be crawling, who knows!? My husband is nearing the end of this level of his education, looking for internships. I have people at work right now that I actually consider friends. Not real close friends or anything, but, you know, like I said, lots of possibilities this year! So who knows.
Anyway, guess life's always a mystery, full of surprises.
To bed I go dear ones!
