My thoughts.

So, I have gotten a lot done at work today but, like any other day, there is a time when I get bored. I get all my things done and there isn't much to do. So, I thought I'd share a couple of things that have been thinking about lately:

1. What really makes a friendship??
Is a friendship made, and kept, just because you have known someone for a long period of time? Can you still really consider someone a friend who has completely changed over the years? I thought friendships were supposed to be easy, and only true friendships were those that didn't need a "makeover" every couple of months.

2. Did I go to school for 6 years for this?
In my last post I commented on how much I love my job, and I do. But, sometimes I wonder how I went to school for 6 years, got 6 certificates, 2 associates degrees, and a bachelors and graduated Cum Laude but have ended up being a glorified secretary. This is where the "Dreamer" part comes in. Is it too much for me to really believe that I DESERVE to have a good job where I can comfortably live off of what I make? I question, is there something bigger out there for me?

3. I want a dog!
I can't seem to get it off my mind. I can't wait until I buy a house
(or find a new apartment) where I am actually able to have a dog. I've been doing a lot of research online about what dog would be the best fit for me. I want a dog that sheds very little, good with kids (Avery will have a best friend in him/her), easily trainable, and highly loveable. The dog that fits that description the best is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.

4. SIMS Affair.
So, tonight is the big dinner for SIMS (Southern Illinois Medical Services). Everyone who is in some way a part of SIMS will be there...doctors included. Now, my problem is that I am shy and very quiet around people that I don't know. Tonight is the night for me to go out and meet everyone I can. This could possibly open some doors for me and make some great contacts. I've started to get a little excited about tonight, but at the same time I am still nervous.

5. Why does everyone say I'm being too picky when it comes to guys?
It is so much for people to believe that I've had my heart broke a couple of times so I refuse to settle for someone that won't make me happy. When I say I'm not interested in dating them just believe that I have a good reason. I wasn't lucky like some people to find the love of my life in high school.

6. Underwire.
Yes, meaning the underwire in bras. I mean, why does it always seem to pop out when I'm at work and can't do anything about it!! Seriously, this is the second bra in a month that the underwire has come out of. Talk about annoying!!

7. Avery Payton.
I have Avery's first picture ever taken hung up right next to my computer where I look at it multiple times in a day. He has grown up so much in almost 6 months! I always think about who he will become as he gets older. Will he be great in school without having to try like his mommy, or maybe he will be a star athlete like his daddy. Will he eventually date Taylor Crippen??? Will be be quiet or loud? I can't wait to see who Avery becomes!

8. I'm cold.
Really, how is it that I can't work without having a coat on?? That's all I'm thinking about with this one...

OK. Well I'm going to stop for now. These are just a few thoughts that have popped up in my mind today. Feel free to comment on them.
