Me - May 2010

I know I haven't said much about myself here so far, so I'm borrowing this meme to maybe give a better idea of what I'm like as a person.

Current Book: the Twilight series, hands down. I saw the movies last fall with some friends who had already read the series, but didn't have a chance to read the books myself until March. I read all four books in about 3 weeks. I've been done with them for over a month now but I loved them so much I can't bring myself to start a new book. I guess I'm still processing. I don't think I'm as obsessed as the "Twi-hards" (that's what they're called, right?) but Twilight has a special place in my heart now!

Current Playlist: I have to admit it...the Twilight soundtrack. I love all the music on it and I've been playing it over & over. Also, it's inspiring my creativity for the book I'm writing. It might sound a little silly, but I'm afraid that if I stop listening to it that creativity will go away :(

Current Shame-Inducing Guilty Pleasure: "letting" DH watch baseball every night so I can do what I want. He'd watch it anyway since we only have one TV, but it gives me an excuse to read, play on the computer, or take a nice long hot - uninterrupted! - shower.

Current Color: Lately? It's been purple. I used to hate purple with a passion, but it's grown on me a lot in the past few months.

Current Drink: Now that it's summer, I love fruit smoothies & Starbucks frappacinos. It's a great way to beat the Florida heat! I also love Jamba Juice, but we don't have one around here.

Current Food: There hasn't really been anything I have to have lately. But ask my DH and I bet you he says something different.

Current Favorite Show: Community! Enough said. It always makes me laugh, and Joel McHale is really nice to look at.

Current Wishlist: Aside from world peace and a million dollars, I'll go with something a little more reasonable. How about a nice spa day or massage with my besties?

Current Needs: Exactly $500 to pay off the medical bill that my health insurance company refuses to cover.

Current Triumphs: DH was out of town for 2 days this week for the first time since Will was born. I tried my hand at being a single mom & while it wasn't the greatest thing ever I'm really happy to know that I can do it.

Current Bane(s) of my Existence: My job. Hahaha. That's another post for another day. I'll get into it soon, I promise.

Current Celebrity Crush: Gerard Butler & Rob Pattinson. Oh, so beautiful!

Current Indulgences: Not much lately, unfortunately. DH has been unemployed for so long that there hasn't been anything extra for indulgences. He starts his new job on Monday though!!

Current #1 Blessing: This is a tough one. I'm not sure I can pick just one.

Current Slang or Saying: Anything to do with goats...don't ask, it's an inside joke on our block.

Current Outfit: I'm so tired of my current wardrobe it's silly! I've only bought new clothes out of necessity for the past 2 years (while I was pregnant and then as I've lost baby weight). I hate everything I have to wear and I'm dying to go on a shopping spree and replace everything in my closet. But, I still want to wait until I lose a little more weight, so that is going to have to wait.

Current Excitement: We're planning a trip to PA this summer to visit family. I've never been there before so I'm looking forward to it!

Current Mood: Happy it's the weekend. Relaxed for the moment since the baby is sleeping & DH is out golfing. Enjoying a cup of coffee & thinking about food.
