I have been in a steady, dating relationship for just over one month.  I'm lovin' my dating life and I am lovin' my man... Haha! I really haven't felt so--secure--in a relationship as I do with him.  He's a wonderful person and he is so good for me.

**content sigh**

Well, this has been a very needed and wonderful break from school!!  I had a really great birthday, a fabulous Thanksgiving, and so far a wonderful weekend!!

I spent most of last night hanging out w/BJ watching a very intense football game!  We had such a good time!!

I'm not fully ready to get back into my rountine this Tuesday, but hopefully by the time that rolls around I'll be good to go!  I still have a presentation to finish and I really need to study for an exam...  I think I'm most worried that I'll get completely stressed out as soon as I'm back in the swing of things...  I think not working has been great for this semester tho.  I haven't had a real break in so, so long...

:e)

I had a GREAT birthday yesterday!  This is the best birthday I've had in a long time.  I love my family, my friends.  I would go into details, but Idk if I really want to...  I just feel so--greatful--that I had such an awesome day!  In fact, this whole weekend is turning out to be fabulous...

I really need to go shopping...  I have no milk.  I have no eggs.  I have no cheese slices.  I have no food with which I can make a meal...  I was thinking about ordering pizza...but that's not really gonna help me w/that whole trying-to-lose-weight thing...  Haha!

So yeah.  I'm hungry.

I also need a vacation.  I really wanna get outta town.  Just for a weekend...that'd be so incredibly awesome!  And I don't mean a family vacation either...my parents informed me they're planning on going to my mom's parents' for New Years...so I'll prob go with them...but, I'll also prob be sooo ready for a vacation after that too.  Hahaha!!  I just want to get away...from the stress.

I paid bills yesterday...ouch.

Oh my gosh.  So...there's all kinds of drama going on w/BJ and Michelle...Idk if I mentioned that she's preggers.  Again.  Well...if not, she is.  She's due May 5th...  Well...on Sunday, they "broke up."  BJ told me Monday evening and not five minutes after we got done talking, I received an email from Michelle telling me about it...they broke up b/c she cheated.  Well, BJ and I hung out for the first time in several months on Tues...he asked the bartender to accompany him to my bday party next weekend...  When Michelle found out (Idk why BJ answered his phone or why he brought up the bartender), she FLIPPED out!!  She told him "we are back together.  You will marry me and you will love me."  Really??

Anyway, like I said...much drama this week...it'll continue to be drama-full as the weeks continue...I can feel it.  Last night Michelle wanted to hang out w/me...I was glad when other friends showed up too...if she's gonna want me to choose a side, I hope she realizes that BJ is my best friend, not her...  (I really don't wanna be in the middle of this...)

Soooo, I'm gonna run...not literally of course.  Haha!  I have some things I need to get done...  Have a great night!!

:e)

I know I just posted a pulse about how I've already picked out my wedding colors...  I'm not even remotely close to being in a long-term relationship that may lead to marriage...  However, I love looking at wedding stuff...  Here are my ideas for the bridal party:

Groom - black tux, white shirt, apple red vest, apple red bow tie, black shoes, white boutinere

Groomsmen - white shirt, black pants, apple red vest, apple red bow tie, black shoes, white boutinere

Ring bearer - apple red shirt, black pants, white tie, black shoes, white boutinere, white pillow w/apple red ribbon

Brides maids - apple red dress, black slipper shoes, white rose

Flower girl - apple red dress w/white sash, black slipper shoes, white basket w/apple red ribbon

Is this too much considering I'm incredibly single??  I mean, I am 25.  I feel like I should already be well on my way to being married...but I'm no where even close...  Regardless, this is my thought on my hopefully-someday-future bridal party.  Haha!

If you wanna know what I'd be wearing, well...  I haven't chosen the dress yet...  I have several in mind...  I have nine specifically that I've looked at online and absolutely love!  I'd be carrying white and red roses...  Maybe.  Most likely...

Haha...  Really, I'm not deparate.  I just love dreaming...
