Wednesday, March 21, 2012

unfortunately this year CL and I didn't get a chance to participate like we usually do for SXSW (south by south west for those of you who don't know) SXSW usually falls over spring break and st. patricks day and we usually go 3 or 4 days and have a rip roarin' good time, but this year, with the wedding and such, we just didn't have the energy to go out to a lot of stuff. but we did go to a couple parties (thanks to CLs work connections! thanks barracuda!) 

not a lot to say, but the time we did go out, we had a blast!
 
 
 
best swag bag, ever? i think yes!
 
 
 
til next sx.

happy.

i can't remember the last time i was this happy. now, don't run away because you think this is one of those 'oh shes getting married and everything is so fun and special for her' kind of posts. its not completely like that. 

part of it is. i am EXTREMELY excited about the wedding and getting married. Its been a LONG road- planning, decisions, more decisions, and money. i can't believe we are literally two months out today. UNREAL. ahh! im excited to call CL my husband, and start a new life together. we are finally to a point where all the hard work, and hard times have paid off and we are enjoying every single second of it.

part of it is how elated i am that i am working again. full time, every day, working. and i LOVE every second. i love that i feel like im contributing to the world (and to the bank account) again. im out and about every day- with people- doing things. and when you haven't really been doing that in years, its such a great change! i love the company i am working for and everyone is really great. im glad that i stuck it out and waited for this opportunity. it was more than worth it.

another part of it is thinking about all the crazy decisions i've made in the last few years-- from moving to austin, to moving in with CL, to taking a chance with the magazine. every decision and choice i've made has landed me here and i couldn't be happier. the friends i've made and lost. the pounds i've gained and lost. the opportunities i've had. im happy. content. blissful. 

and i wouldn't change a thing.

its been one week.

hooray!
one full week of work under my belt!
 i am falling more and more in love with the people i work with and am picking up the training pretty well. i can't wait 'til i get to take my first appointment. i'll finally be out on my own, making it happen! its so exciting!

its been raining (and hailing) like crazy since last night, so we are going to take it easy this weekend. CL and I both have trainings to work on, so i wouldn't be surprised if we didn't leave the house all weekend. i mean, who says you have go leave and put on real clothes on the weekend? 

im finally getting my hair highlighted on sunday (so i guess i will be leaving and wearing something other than pjs!) so that will be nice! i got shellac manicure for the first time and so far im loving it! with how rough i am with my hands (oops) this will maybe help with the constant changing and fixing of the nail polish!

nothing too exciting going on.. haha

happy friday!

she lives.
