Life update

It's been awhile since I've posted anything about me personally, so why not?

The last couple of months have been pretty darned good. I'm another year older, which happens to us all. L. took me out to the Metropolitan Grill for my birthday, and treated me to some beautiful roses and one of the adorable Coach wristlets that I had my eye on for awhile. My friend A. hosted a birthday shindig with my friends and family, so that was really nice of her and we had a great time afterward at Theatresports and Howl at the Moon. And my mom made me my favorite home-cooked meal and a cake. It was all just perfect!

L. and I enrolled in the second session of swing dancing classes. It's getting progressively more complicated, but still extremely fun. We're now learning the shim sham, which is a non-partner dance, and it's something that totally confuses me, but I hope to figure it out before I'm old and grey.

The weather is starting to get nicer again, so I'm enjoying being outside more, and Kati and I are going to start our weekly walks back up again. Green Lake just isn't so fun when you have icicles hanging off of your eyelashes...

Work is going really well, and it still presents many challenges for me. Our team has been really busy, but we still manage to have some fun. I got news that I'll get to go to a conference in Boston later this year, so I'm really excited about that. I've never been on a business trip before!

And, I finally have all of my furniture. My condo is completely furnished. I wasn't sure that I'd ever see the day, but my bookcases finally came and they're perfect. I may have spent a lot of money on them, but they were sure worth it in the end. I love my home and love having people over to see it. I find it interesting that everyone finds something different to talk about when they first see my place. Some people notice the colors first, some notice the decorations, and others notice the furniture. It's fun to guess what they'll point out first :)

So, that's me for now. I hope things continue to go well, and hope that they go the same for all of my family and friends as well.
