But anyway, I'm going to be very random with this post. I have a few things I need to mention, but no one thing that I can elaborate on for very long. K, here goes.
My New Year's Resolution:
On an unrelated, yet slightly similar note...we've set a date!! Shay and I will be getting married on June 3, 2006. Less than 5 months away!! It's, like, totally crazy--but I can't wait!! It will be a 6:00 PM ceremony on the beach, barefoot in the sand! It's going to be great!! (BTW--here's a picture his mom took of us at our wedding site when we went to check it out!)
With that said, I have made it a personal goal of mine to do the stereotypical thing and get into (hopefully a lot) better shape before the wedding! However, I had made this decision before the new year, so this is NOT my New Year's Resolution. Because I HATE it when people make that their resolution. Because we all know that lasts approximately 3.5 days, and then they give up, and spend the next 362.5 days in the year (or 363.5 days if it's a leap year) whining that they're too fat and that "next year, they'll really stick to it." The problem with that is, though, that they really have no motivation, other than the fact that the turn of the new year is like turning over a new leaf.
Well, I'm thinking of my "new leaf" as being turned over when I start my new life with Shay in June. And that really IS motivation to get into shape. Because I'm pretty sure we're going to Hawaii for our honeymoon, and I'm really sure I want to be able to wear a real two-piece bikini while we're there. (Not to mention the fact that I don't want to look like a beached beluga in my white dress...) I know it can be done!! Oh, and to show how dedicated I am to the process...I joined the Y yesterday!! AND THE TREADMILLS HAVE INDIVIDUAL TVS BUILT INTO THEM!!! That's what rocked my face off so when I used the treadmills at Fike. I can stay on those things for a full hour of Friends no sweat! (Well. With sweat. It would defeat the purpose otherwise.) So yeah, I'm stoked. Jane's been a member, and Taffi joined, too, so now I even have work-out partners!! :-D Yay for getting healthy!!
BUT THE BEST THING OF ALL ABOUT JANUARY IS...................
....drum roll, please........
MY BIRTHDAY IS NEXT FRIDAY THE 13TH!!!! :-D
Now, I LOVE my birthday (and most of my friends will say that's an understatement), but I'm kind of anxious about this one. My birthday has only fallen on a Friday twice before in my life. The first time, I turned 7. I had the chicken pox. The next time, I turned 13. Three days later, my dad moved out. So yeah. Whenever my birthday's been on a Friday, I haven't had that great of luck. I really hope I'm not jinxing myself for this year thinking that something bad is going to happen again. BUT, 7 and 13 are both superstitious numbers, too, but 24 is not. So maybe I'll be okay.
But just to be on the safe side, wear a helmet on Friday, woulda ya?!
PS--On Saturday night the 14th, I will be celebrating my birthday with friends in Greenville, SC. Don't know exact time, place, or location, but if you're in the area, please come out and join in on the fun.
PPS--Okay, Terence, are you satisfied?! :-D

Yep. Good read. And on a completely unrelated note, how long has the "Congratulations" message been over there? That's the first time I've seen that.
Um. Remember that night I changed Eric's to the new heading about not worth looking at or whatever? I'm pretty sure it was that night. Like, right after you won and you changed your banner at the top of your page.
