YAY!

Since I am generally an excited sort of person, I am going to blog about all of the things that are currently exciting me. Because there are several:

1) I am excited about this summer, and the fact that I have a job that is hard, but so far tolerable and even quite satisfying in an "I just busted my ass for 8 hours, and my feet and back hurt, and I've run up and down the stairs about six hundred times because I kept forgetting things on different floors, and I feel like I've been stewing in urine and mop water and I probably smell like it too, but damn those bathrooms are CLEAN" sort of way, not to mention the fact that said job pays enough for me to be able to spend my entire first paycheque on clothes, pay rent, AND save for England, AT THE SAME TIME.

2) The part about the clothes. Seriously, I am going to throw out everything I own and just completely restock. Good god, it has been SO LONG. Mmmm tank tops and hooded sweatshirts. Sandals. FLAAATS! SUNDRESSES!!!!!

3) Living in my NEW Sweet Digs, with my NEW Sweet Roommate! We will watch lots of Arrested Development, have nerdy conversations about Lord of the Rings over Cheerios (except I don't really like Cheerios, but I'm going for aesthetic here. Just roll with it.) and go out cruising in his car and pick up babes. The babes will be for him. Mostly.

4) Summer. There is sun in the summertime. Sun means several things, including, but certainly not limited to: shorts, skirts, flip flops, not ski jackets, freckles, tans (not likely, but I can dream), frolicking about outside, lying on the beach, eating ice cream (something I do year round, but not always while slightly sunburned and wearing only the bottom half of a bikini that is being pulled down by a dog), being warm outside at night, FUN, not drowning while attempting to walk places, and skin cancer. That last one is not so good, but nothing is perfect. Give the sun a break. You are giving the sun an inferiority complex. Are YOU perfect? I didn't think so. You probably have skin cancer or something. I'd call that a defect.

5) Improv in the summer! This will be awesome. I feel as though that is enough said.

6) Sketch comedy in the summer! This could potentially be included in the Sweet Digs/Roommate section, but there may be other people involved, and besides, proper categorization is so overrated.

7) Fun. I anticipate a large amount of fun in the near future. I like fun.

8) Regina Spektor tomorrow night!! Something I've sort of forgotten about until now what with all the other haps, but OH MAN. I'm so gay for her. She rocks.

9) Harry Potter SEVEN. Even though after it comes out I will have nothing left to live for. But we will address that problem when it arises. She better let Harry live. She just better had. Unless he dies a REALLY good death. Like... I don't even know. It would have to be so good my mind wouldn't even be able to comprehend it, and then I wouldn't like that either, because I would feel stupid for not getting it and I wouldn't really know what had happened. So he just better live, I think. And she better keep Ginny around, too. This whole All-The-People-Harry-Truly-Loves-Dying-Untimely-Deaths thing is getting a bit old.

10) ENGLAND. Oh wow. Except the excitement for that is sort of dulled, since it will happen after the summer is over, and right now I want summer to start and continue FOREVER, but trust me, soon I will be completely incontinent with glee.

11) HEROES. And the babies I am going to have with Mohinder.

12) School being DONE, for a WHOLE YEAR. Procrastinating and slacking off, one may not realize, is extremely stressful. Especially when one has such high expectations of oneself as I do, and one does not enjoy feeling like a useless schlub of butter (maybe mouldy butter, since regular butter is still good for things like putting on bread and baking and taking off rings that have got too tight). Ironically, I am excited to be out of school so I can READ. I plan on devouring the library. But not literally. Well, maybe a little.

13) Breaking in my new fancy racing-type swimsuit. I will learn to do the front crawl in a straight line before the summer is out, damnit! As I said, high expectations.

14) Going home for a week. Though the hideously early morning commute to work will be a pain, I have had a hankering for some good old fashioned hometown life at the 'rents. And I think a week will be just enough to fulfill my craving and also make me slightly sick of it, and thus ready to break in the SWEET DIGS.

15) Capital letters, apparently.

The end. I think I'll go dance around and hum tunelessly and generally be sickeningly good-natured. Avoid me at all costs. HooRAH!
