Very awesome things have been happening. The following are some of them:

• Jeremy and Shelley got married! Yay! It was one of the most beautiful weddings I have ever been to. I don’t know what else to say…it was just beautiful (and very emotional…not a dry eye in the place). And although we know they are very excited to be on their honeymoon, we just really want them to get home and start being our neighbors!
• Yesterday I found out I am keeping my job. There have been rumors of “re-optimization” (def. you might keep your job, you might have to move to a different one, and we just might not find you one at all). After 2 hours of attempting patience while waiting to hear which group I fell into, I was pleased to read that my job (including my territory and the products I sell) are not changing. And I get to go to training soon, but not until summer is officially over. Awesome, awesome, and awesome.
• Brian has been very sick. This is not the awesome part. Yesterday the nice urgent care doctor said he has sinusitis and bronchitis. Soon after, I started to feel symptoms as well. I am usually of the persuasion that once you are getting sick, you are getting sick, so just suck it up and be sick. But this time I was really hoping not to get sick so I went out and bought lots of OJ and the like, and before heading to the register, decided to give Airborne a try. I’m not usually into medicine in general (I know, ironic) and especially not vitamins/herbals, but I heard that this stuff worked and for five bucks, it was a pretty safe gamble. Although anything effervescent that you drop into a glass and then drink grosses me out (childhood Alka-Seltzer trauma), I gave it a go. Guess what? I literally felt better in like 3 hours. So I took it again last night and twice more this morning. I still have that slight “you are getting over some serious post-nasal drip” feeling, but I’m not stuck to the couch and I feel pretty, well, awesome! THANK YOU AIRBORNE!
• My DV-R sometimes just stops recording things (or Brian does, I’m not sure which). And last week one of those things was the aforementioned “The Closer.” I was SO mad and refused to watch it online on my tiny computer screen, especially since one of the show’s perk’s is the fact that I can watch it in HD. Well, last night while the Airborne was still kicking in (but I was passed out on the couch) I remembered that TBS has an on demand channel on which you can watch episodes of the network’s original series’. TNT and TBS are both owned by the same company…The Closer is a TNT original series…do you not know where I’m going with this? I got to watch it on demand for free. Just one more reason I love The Closer.
• Today I had a good day at work. Although this may seem too moderate to be awesome, I really needed a good day. A day that felt normal, that contained only mild rejection (which I am accustomed to and therefore was not shocked at and subsequently emotional about), that included a few great conversations with doctors, and that almost reached my company’s required daily call goal. As you may guess, I have not had numerous good days at work, so having one today qualifies as, you guessed it…AWESOME!
