Bummer

Bet you can't wait to read this post, huh?

Okay, it's not all that bad, but I had a crummy day Thursday.  I stayed up way too late on Wednesday night trying to study for my first test.  I was nervous and not able to concentrate.  When I finally went to bed, I only had 4 hours to sleep.  Not even close to enough for this girl.  I knew I was going to be wiped out on Thursday.  I just had to get thru my test and lunch with a dear friend (which turned out to be the highlight of my day)!

I got up and got ready for my day.  Left 2 minutes late, but no biggie.  Then I got pulled over.  Silly me, I have not been paying attention to my registration/inspection stickers.  The nice officer let me know I was expired.  Wasn't that sweet?  Not today it wasn't!  I'll fess up, I cried.  Not because I was scared of him or ashamed that I wasn't taking care of my driver duties, but because I was exhausted and worried I would be late for my test.  The officer was very kind and wished me luck on my exam, even assured me I would do great.  Yeah, right buddy!  Thanks for the ticket!  Clearly he has no heart and wasn't swayed by my tears AT ALL!

I got back on the road with my ticket and 21 days to prove I can be a responsible adult.  I made it to class with two minutes to spare.  Not enough time to sneak in a little more study time.  Boo!  I took the test and I didn't do as well as I hoped I would - I didn't make an A.  It has been a long time since my last test so I'm just going to count this as practice and rock all the others.  Moving on.

I had about two hours before my lunch date and I have to tell you, I took a nap!  It was too short but it was much needed.  I met my beautiful, and beautifully pregnant, friend Sammie at Jack Allen's.  I had Green Chili Pork Tacos and they were super delicious.  I hope she didn't notice the fog I was in.  It was nice to sit and chat with her and I'm looking forward to seeing her again at her baby shower in two weeks!

I was starting to feel bad, like I was getting a cold, so I went home and straight to bed!  Fortunately, my mom was picking up Monkey and I was able to get in about 3 hours of much needed rest before we had dinner and went to the gym for Monkey's practice.

All in all, it wash't that bad but it was quite a full day for someone running on an empty tank.  I'm just glad it is over.  Now if I can just get to feeling better all will be back on track.  I'm almost even tired of watching HGTV. . . nah.

As a happy side note, I'm loving the new washer/dryer.  They work nicely and play the happiest little tune when they are done to let me know what's up.  :o)
