Mark Your Calendars

Things are looking up- well sort of.

Let's face is, not every day is great, and I'll speak for the group when I say, sometimes we need something to look forward to to get through the god forsaken week. I am definitely looking forward to a few upcoming dates/events.

Next Thursday...THANKSGIVING! This is my all time favorite holiday. I mean who doesn't look forward to a day devoted to food? That same day I am probably going to run in the Turkey Trot- the 5k race I am supposedly "training" for. I mean, I did okay last year. Okay might be a stretch. I did finish in about 33 minutes, but as I tripped cross the finish line my face was as red as a cherry and I was breathing like I just finished a pack of Newport's. I truthfully try to like running, but it just hasn't made my list of favs. I will admit I feel good after running, and if I run on Thanksgiving I won't feel guilty for eating 2 pieces of pie. 

Besides next Thursday, I am excited for my second all time favorite holiday...BLACK FRIDAY!!! Don't knock it till you try it, folks! If you like chaos and insane people watching, venture out during the wee hours of next Friday morning. If you think Wal Mart is crazy on a Saturday- try Black Friday. Last year a woman punched another woman in her face over a deal on a TV. Wal Martians are nuts!

Now, I think I may have gotten a little of track, but what I am trying to say is, if you need a pick-me-up to get you through the week, find something that makes you happy! If there isn't an important event coming up, set a side a time/day where you can watch your favorite TV show. For instance, to get me through the rest of the week, on Wednesday nights I watch Modern Family. It makes me laugh and for that half an hour I forget about how boring and uneventful my life is. AND when I am not subbing, I watch Regis and Kelly- that way for an hour, I am happy about not working. (After this Friday I am not sure how I will get myself out of bed now that Regis will be retiring)

What's the point of my rant? Find something that makes you happy or else you will go insane!!!
