Mumbo Jumbo

I have so many random thoughts and things going on right now so I figured I'd throw them into one post...creative, right?!

• I went and got fake nails put on a few weeks ago and I loved them. I feel so much more girly with long nails but when it came time to go and get them filled in, I realized that nails were more than I bargained for. I just want nails, not the constant maintenance. Well, instead of going and getting them filled or getting them gently soaked off, I decided to pull them off. YIKES! It was so painful...I think I might have seriously messed up my nails.
• I'm addicted to the game Words with Friends. It's like a virtual scrabble game with friends or random opponents. I started out pretty pathetic...my vocabulary was "limited" in scrabble terms. Now, I'm starting to get the hang of the game. For the first time ever I used all the letters and scored 73 points on ONE WORD! I even took a picture as evidence for all you non-believers out there!

• We've scheduled the dates for our electric, gas and cable to get shut off, wrote the last rent check and set an appointment next week to file our taxes.
  
• With three weeks until we make the LONG drive back to Missouri, I'm getting asked all the time "How is packing coming along?" Well...this crazy, over organized girl hasn't packed one thing. Before you judge, hear me out. Our apartment is so small that if I start packing boxes then we have no where to store them. I can't shove them in a closet or under the bed and there is no way I can have random boxes sitting around for the next three weeks. So it looks like packing will occur the week and the weekend before the move. I might kick myself for this later...
• Our freezer is starting to get pretty bare. We've been trying to really eat up our food that we won't be able to travel with and by the looks of things, I'd say we are doing pretty good. I'm fighting the urge to go on a shopping spree and fill up our cabinets and freezer. I feel like there is nothing in our house to eat!
• Jason made his rank list for residency a few weeks ago and has already changed it twice and is talking about changing it for a third time (back to his original decision). We've spent countless hours talking about where we'd like to live, raise a family, buy a house, get the best education, etc, etc, etc. The unknown is definitely taking a toll on him. I'm trying to act strong and like it doesn't affect me...if he only knew.
  
• We've been tossing around the idea of selling Jason's car before we move back. One less car and thing to worry about. I think we've decided that a car payment and a higher insurance payment is not something we want to have in addition to everything else. The 170,000 + miles are not going to scare us away that easy...we'll drive it until it won't drive anymore.
• Starting a family is something that is something that we talk about quite often. We've always talked about starting a family right after graduation (which is in 3 months) and we've both gotten...what do you call it...hhhmmm....COLD FEET! We've decided to add a few more months of birth control and to start "thinking" about starting a family once we get more settled with steady income. I thought I was ready for a little Conway and now that it's almost that time, I'm freaking out!

Wow, mumbo jumbo is right. It actually feels good to organize all the randomness going on in my brain...
