Thank you, Mr. President

I have had a pretty good week! Last Monday, for Valentine's Day, Justin and I went out for a nice dinner at The Sandpiper and spent some time together. We agreed to just get eachother a card this year. I got Justin a hilarious card that he totally loved, then he handed me my card. It was seriously 3 feet tall and the largest card I have ever seen! Oh, and it sung a silly song when you opened it. Justin: "Well if all I was going to get you was a card, I had to get a good one!" I love Valentine's Day!

Thanks to President's Day, I had a long weekend! It was pretty fun. I took in a couple of movies this weekend. My friend, Mindy, hadn't seen Harry Potter yet, so we went to see that at the cheap seats. It was just as good the second time! I'm a total Harry Potter NERD. I love it!
I also saw I am Number Four. It was good! I really enjoyed it!
The rest of my lazy weekend was filled with reading, shopping, laundry, exercise, and tv. Justin and I started watching 24 on Netflix because there was nothing on TV. We are SO hooked on that show! I just can't get enough Jack Bauer! I highly recommend it! I like when I find a good series that is actually out on dvd. I always know I have something to watch when I get bored.

Superbowl Ads!

This weekend was a lot of fun! On Saturday, Justin and I went to see "Season of the Witch."



That movie was not what I expected! When I saw the preview, I thought it looked a little spooky, but nothing really scary. I jumped right out of my seat about a dozen times! It was a really creepy movie!

Yesterday we went over to my friend, Mindy's parent's house to watch the big game. We ate a lot of good food and enjoyed the game, commercials, and Glee afterward. These were some of my favorite commercials:

Has it EVER been this cold?

Yesterday morning I woke up, groggy eyed and FREEZING. I knew I needed to wake up and get ready for work, but I didn't want to get out of my warm bed so soon. I reached over to my nightstand and grabbed my iPod. I was shocked when I looked at the weather report and it was -4 degrees! I was cold ALL day. WELL... this morning I woke up, and out of curiosity, reached over to the nightstand for my iPod again. The temperature read -20 degrees! Absolutely crazy! Now keep in mind, the video below comes from a place where it is only 8 degrees colder.




This time of the year is hard. All I want to do is be outside and soak up some vitamin D! Oh, well. I can't believe it is February already. At this rate, spring will be here soon. Especially since Punxsutawney Phil didn't see his shadow today! Happy Groundhog Day, everyone!

So, in lieu of the bitter cold, I decided to stay in and do my taxes. I am probably one of the only people that enjoy doing them! But truthfully, I want my money! It is a great feeling having them complete well before April 15th!

Just to report back on my 30 day shred progress... I'm on day 6. I have taken a couple of days off due to soreness and just life getting busy! Someone at work said I looked skinny today : ) I think I am looking more toned already. Plus, I've noticed the push-ups and bicycle crunches are actually getting easier! Hooray, I will be ripped by day 30... haha, maybe not really... but better for sure!
