I had the whole day off today. I planned it that way. I originally was kind of toying with the idea of coming home over New Years, so I decided to use my 'floating holiday' for today, in case I decided to come. Obviously I didn't come home, but a four day weekend is going to be really nice anyhow!!! Despite the fact that it was a day off, I had a lot of things to get done. I had to take my application package for immigration to get copied, I had to get passport photos done for the application, I had to pick up Eric's check and go to the bank. While I was at Wal-Mart I dropped off my three rolls of film (which were full of a lot of CRAP!!! Thank God I have digital now...) and then had an hour to kill so I walked over to this "Lakeshore Learning" store which is like elementary school teacher's heaven. It was fun, and I finally managed to find two fabulous books on teaching activities and ideas for two year olds. All the other books I found before were preschool based, but that meant 3-4 years old. These two books are for 18-36 months. Perfect. One is a curriculum book, and the other is an AWESOME craft ideas book. Hooray for me!!!
Anyhow, so then I picked up my photos, went home, got together my immigration application, stuck it in an envelope and took it to the post office. It is mailed. Hopefully they don't send it back saying it's incomplete. That would make me sad:(:( Then, I watched not one but TWO episodes of "The Young and the Restless", did some laundry and then went to the gym. Here I am now. Whew....that was a busy day! I don't remember what else I was going to write about.....oh yes, I remember now. Yesterday!!!! After work Eric and I decided to go to the bookstore to spend our gift cards that we got for Christmas. I got a James Patterson cheapie book, and "Chicken Soup for the Teacher's Soul" (I dunno, I just felt like it). Eric got a Get Fuzzy cartoon book, and "American Psycho" (Novel). We did good. We also went to this fast food sit down italian place that has really good food, although it's a little on the expensive side for fast food. I mean, you have to walk up to the cashier to order!!!
We went to see "King Kong" last night. Honestly (now call me stupid, or whatever) I really didn't know what it was about except for the huge monkey and the blonde lady climbing up the building. It was a good movie, and I loved the love story, however it was far too long, unecessarily so, and we didn't get home until well after 1:00 in the morning because the movie was over three hours long!!! It was a sad movie and it made me a little depressed, too.
There, I think that's all I wanted to say. The End!
