Goin' to Graceland, Graceland, Memphis, TN...

This week... it's been long:
-Jeremy got reeeeally sick with a stomach virus this week
-Trying to save my computer from falling in the floor, I smashed the screen
-Discovered Sony's extended warranty plan
-Became $200 cheaper
-Have to figure out how to transfer all my stuff off my hard drive to the external one since the computer is perfectly fine, it's just the screen. Blah.
-I have also consequently fallen behind on CafeWorld. No worries, Donna, I'll get you yet!

Tonight:

We're hanging out watching Food Network with Jeremy's parents and sister, Ana's (ostensibly) in bed, and we had a really fantastic day spending time with our amazing little niece! I know she's got more energy than possibly even Julian, but I would feel so lucky if we ended up with a smart little girl like her. She's got an hilarious little "Oh..." followed by a look when she's disappointed or disgusted by something, and has spent the whole day inquiring about mine and Jeremy's whereabouts whenever we're not in the room. Today we went to the store for snacks, and while playing with my phone, she called Jenny-Lind who called back and got to talk to Ana for a few minutes.

This afternoon, I got her a little necklace and bracelet (since she'd been asking Jan about her bracelet, and trying to take mine that Dill got me in Italy, and since the Christmas present I got for her is waay too big!) from Claire's and she's lost the bracelet, but that's more the fault of her wrist being so darn tiny!

I started to get ahead of Sallie Mae on Jeremy's loan stuff, and looked in to a new hard drive for my computer (external, my computer is fine... except for that whole smashed in screen that happened the other day... thank goodness for extended accidental warranty coverage!), and added a few people to my family tree on Ancestry.com-- there's some pretty cool stuff on there!

Tomorrow should be fun, we're going to chill out most all day and hopefully I'll get some pictures of us with Ana (since my camera is here!!) and then we're going to Bdubs and a hockey game for my birthday! Whee!!

That's about all for now, I'll try to update when we get back from Atlanta!

2010, pretty awesome so far!

Not a whole lot of updates on life in 2010 so far-- we've been busy, but not stressed, and things are finally starting to look up. Looks like my greens and black eyed peas may actually be doing the trick this year! Plus pretty much everyone I've met thinks the $15 set of rings I got at Target is real! "Oh my gosh, that diamond is so pretty!" So, if you need fake diamonds, Target's the place to go!

I left my camera in Southaven, which is a bit of a bummer, but I think I got all the pictures off of it before we left so I guess that's good. The next time I'll see it is after my birthday :(

I got some good news on the job front; Richard's stepping down (he wants to go back to school, Good Luck, Rich!!) so I'm getting promoted! As of now it's just an interim position, and I don't want to count my chickens before they hatch, but I have a positive attitude regarding the outcome so hopefully that means we won't be living in our cell for too much longer!

*crosses fingers*

We're also excited because the next time we go to Memphis, we'll see Analia!! We haven't seen her since she was 9 months old and we can't wait. Obviously, we'll also get to see Valerie, too :) Matt is coming, I think, in February which will also be nice.

Anyway, that's about all the news fit (or unfit) to print, so I'll wrap it up. Hope everyone's staying warm! It's pretty frigid out there!
