Feeling good, feeling great

That's a reference to Big Boi's "Ghetto Musick" from Speakerboxx, in case you didn't know. You have to know how they sing it to really know how to read the title (go listen!) But guess what, I am feeling good and feeling great...some reasons why

1. Started going to a ghetto ass gym with my sisters 3x/week. The owner "Fred" tells me in a twangy accent, "We're (who's we??) gonna get you in the best shape of your life!!" Ok, Fred. Beat the second I was born and had no exposure to illness or drugs and I will believe you. But anyways, I have been feeling pretty good after workin it out with the Reitz girls. Especially when we left the gym and headed to Tumbleweed for Margarita Mondays last night. :)

2. I started at the inpatient psychiatric hospital...I was a little scared at first, but now I really am loving it. I have an awesome supervisor. She is an older woman who cusses, so right off the bat I want to be like her. She also really genuinely cares about people and is straigh-up with you instead of beating around the bush...my kind of lady. The patients here are so interesting too and not as scary as one might think. I have enjoyed my first week and already learned a whole bunch of useful info.

3. I am stressed about dissertation, but slowly making progress. I still feel behind, but I also feel like I WILL get it done. That is way better than the feelings that I had before that "I am crap" and "I am lazy" because I wasn't where I wanted to be with it. So, yeah, doing better.

4. Overall, just in a good mood about life. Having good thoughts about the wedding I am going to in May...still not realizing it is my own. Not as super jazzed about planning as I thought I would be. I like coming up with ideas, but the whole "paying for the shit I would need" isn't the best part...so as of now, I have decided to forego (sp?) thinking of wedding planning until my money comes in (loans and getting paid for prac + selling house)...That way I can actually have the dough I need to get the stuff to use for the nuptuals...

5. Pretty happy with the fiance too. He has been really nice the past couple of days. This includes getting up to get me something when I am sitting ont he couch and he didn't have any other reason to get up. How sweet! (Because I am a lazy bum and don't do that for him half the time)
