Shopping

So tomorrow is my birthday.  My aunt sent me some money and I had extra money from my roommates rent this month so I took myself out shopping tonight.  I needed a new watch and thought I might splurge for something kind of fancy, but after looking at Kohl’s and Penny’s, I couldn’t find anything I just loved.  I finally found two basically cheap watches at Target that I liked, so I bought both of them.  At Kohl’s I bought new underwear (can you ever have enough?) and at Penny’s I bought a necklace and pair of earrings.  I then picked up Taco Villa for dinner and headed home. 

Tomorrow Matthew will be making me dinner for my birthday.  I am happily surprised that he remembered.  He called me last night and invited me over.  I can’t wait to see him again. 

Today was fairly uneventful.  I’m still overwhelmed with school work, but keeping my head above water.  After I got home tonight, I finished all my homework which was a lot more than I expected because I didn’t realize that we had to cover two resources this week.  I already had an evaluation done, but I had to do a second one, two quests, one quiz, and one discussion post.  I just submitted everything and will head to bed shortly.

I called Josh today to let him know that his aunt had also sent him money (He and I have the same birthday).  I’ll call him again tomorrow to wish him a happy birthday, but it sounds like he won’t get to celebrate much as he has school and has to work. 

Last year my birthday was very lackluster (and it was my 40th).  Here’s hoping that this year will be more special because of who I will be spending it with.
