Friday Confessions #2

"There aren't enough days in the weekend." ~Rod Schmidt

Well today I'm in the great state of Oklahoma! Not for an OSU sporting event (crazy, I know!) but for work. So the blog today is going to be pretty short and not too earth shattering. Blame my job. Lucky for me, the lovely Leslie has a great Friday link up that I can partake in.
1. I am in a slight state of depression. It happens every year at this time. You know, when I realize that college football is over and I have to wait all the way until September for it to start again. Sigh. But I do plan to continue celebrating the Fiesta Bowl win until then!
2. I'm a grammar snob. There, I said it. I also think that it's important to have a husband to knows how to spell. Why, you ask? Click on Exhibit A. You hear that, Mr. Right? Pay attention! :)
3. I'm sick of traveling. GASP! I know, I know. The girl who runs all over the place from Oklahoma to San Francisco, from water skiing to Roma has had enough. I've been running around like crazy and I just want to have some time at home. With my own couch and my own bed and no suitcases.
4. I secretly hope some people fail at their New Year's resolutions. I'm sorry, I know I'm a bad person. But I hate going to the gym in January because all of the New Year's people are there and it makes things crowded makes me have to wait on certain machines. Perhaps my New Year's resolution should have been patience...
5. Depsite #3 above, I'm already making a list of travel destinations for 2012. Here are the possibilities....Chicago, Savannah, Seattle, Vegas, Dallas, Costa Rica, Stillwater, and Vegas (again). Should be exciting!! I mean, when you start the year out hanging out in the palm trees at an Arizona resort, you've got to keep it going!

6. I may never get caught up on all of the blogs I follow. My Google Reader says I've got like 500 unread blogs. I'm debating just marking "click all as read" and starting over again.
7. I think I'm addicted to Clementines. You know, the little oranges that you buy in like a 10 pound bag? They are SO good and have only 40 calories a piece, which means that I can eat a whole bunch of them before it kicks me over my daily limit on My Fitness Pal!


8. On the way to OK earlier this week, we flew through Denver. It's just not fair to make a livestock girl get on a plane to Denver during the Stock Show and make her get right back on a plane out of town. I was seriously contemplating quitting my job and making a run for The Hill! (Note to self and single girl friends: Lots of cute cowboys in the Denver airport during NWSS!)
9. Blind Dates?! I think that several people in my life may have made it their New Years resolution to take my disaster of a love life into their own hands. Stay tuned....

Okay so I could go on and on with this blog only because you are one of my besties and I would like to take part in most of these with you. However, I will only pick a couple: First, I still wonder to this day why you and Honey have not dropped me as your friend due to my horrid grammer and spelling both.:) Second, I think we should totally do a girls trip again in 2012 and do another run either in Chicago or Vegas. Personally I'm leaning towards Chicago, so that we can do the Vegas marathon next year and save our pennies up and buy a ticket to one of the NFR nights... Maybe we could do both this year hmm?

In response to LOKG's comment about spelling and grammar - we love her and no number of spelling and grammar errors could change that!

As for everything else, I hope that you get some relaxing time at home soon, with plenty of time to catch up on blogs, plot out travel plans for 2012, and use whatever machine you want at the gym. I'd say you've earned the right to all those things!
