feeling better, 70%

Monday, March 27th, 2006 | 12 Comments

I felt pretty OK today, but not great with a few moments of feeling like shit at work today. I could go into work~ but blah~ it’s only interesting to me… hahahaha. I did get the passport photos. I want to say something though. I don’t want to really… I don’t mention Italy a lot because there’s still a 40% chance it won’t happen. I mean, the rooms & tickets still need to be booked and my Grandfather is really the one heading this up. If for some reason he can’t get rooms or a date booked in time… well, let’s just say there’s a chance it might not happen, but we’re trying ;. I’m sure I jinxed myself by buying a journal for the trip! However, trip or not Mike & I need to get our passports renewed! We will be travelling internationally within the next few years anyway so we might as well buy them now before the price spikes more!!! Anyway, I guess I’m scared to get too excited about Italy because what if it gets cancelled? You know?? So yea, I guess that’s why I act very nonchalant about it right now because I’m still not 100% certain it’s still on.

Despite that long speech, I bought the cool journal and a pocket Italian phrase book!!! Also, a NEKO! April’s issue. here’s a better look at the journal. I really love the design and feel of it. The pages have different travel symbols and photos throughout, and also there’s an address section and conversion section. A whole section has grid paper, it’s just graphically appealing to me!

I also cleaned my desk/armoire today. I can see to write again! I just cleaned up the main part, the other sections are still organized from my last “big clean.”

Mike and I were unknowingly both looking at engagement rings while at work today!! I wasn’t going to say anything but I did and he was shocked because he too had been looking at rings online at work today. About a month ago I was having troubles wondering if I was ready to get married or not… then I told Mike that it’s his decision. I wanted him to ask me to marry him when he felt we were ready. So, that could mean tomorrow, or in two years…. either way it’s not my worry!! I want him to pick out the ring alone of course, but I’m not dumb, I’m letting him know what I’m looking for. Really, I’m want something different, with color. I think I’m really leaning towards a princess cut diamond with pink sapphire stones aside the diamond or along the band. We found a few online that I really liked, a few at Tiffany’s too which is good because there’s one in town. But…. no rush, no hurry, but it’s nice to start to realize the style I’m going for. The price isn’t much of an issue either. We’ve been kinda looking around the $4,000 - $10,000 range. I’m more interested in the style than the size of the diamond. I would be sad with a single diamond worth $15,000. I’d rather have a diamond with other stones worth $4,000 if it’s more my style! Haha, OK, I’m getting WAY wordy.
