Gratitude, Day 23

Today was another, how shall we say... uneventful? day for me. I keep thinking of really great non-gratitude-related posts I could write and then instead of writing them, I take a nap. My productivity is astounding, if I do say so myself. Now here, enjoy some happy thoughts:

1) I am less than a week away from spending 4 days in Florida with Kiki! Wooooo!

2) I've been feeling a little bad about how incredibly unproductive I am, but I decided that my current state (excited about the future, a little bored with the tasks before me, fantasizing about the beach) is akin to "senior-itis," if you will. And if I got through my senior year of college OK, as useless as I was, I will get through the last 3 months of my First Real Job, by God.

3) My boss wasn't around today, so I was able to leave a little early and just take some stuff home to work on in the comfort of my own apartment. Sometimes it's nice to break free of the constraints of fancy work pants and terrible flourescent lighting.

4) I took another nap this evening. I'm not sure if I should be proud of this fact or ashamed, but it was mostly an enjoyable experience, so I think we're going to put it in the 'win' column.

5) The grad school website posted information about orientation today and I got SO PUMPED. I just want everyone to know that relatively soon, I will be buying textbooks. Man, I love buying textbooks. I think that fact alone may say more about me than the rest of the information on this website combined.

PS. The reason you haven't heard much more about my attempts to get up at 7:30 everyday is because they are still... not going well. BUT! I am getting up earlier? So, Baby Steps, or whatever.
