a very productive tuesday.

Hey guys!

So today was cram-packed full of activities! I finally woke up early today (7:00) and got so much stuff done that I can’t afford to sleep as much anymore! I met Mary at her house this morning at 7:30 to run. We did a mile in her neighborhood and then she had to get ready for a doctor’s appointment. After our run I stopped by the barbershop and got a quick haircut. Then I traveled over to office depot and made some copies! After this I turned in my application to intern at WXBM and work their events and stuff. It seems like a really cool job, and Lord willing, I’ll be able to work some shows soon! After that I received a call from Pensacola pools who had the filter lid in stock at the Pace location. So I didn’t pay $40 for it… only $33.66 haha. Oh well..

I got all of the above done before noon! I feel so accomplished!

Later I called Tabirtha from work and asked her if she could bring her dog, Taylor, over to our place today. I discussed possibly adopting her because they are moving to Louisiana in two weeks :( So after a while they came over and I immediately fell in love! She has such a good temperament and is so CUTE! She’s staying over at our house tonight! The deal hasn’t been finalized yet, but I’m pretty sure that it is safe to say she is our new dog.

So afterward I had to go into work. It wasn’t a bad shift; I only worked 5 hours. Again lots of cleaning; it’s really starting to look good! Now if we could just get rid of the insect problem..

After work I came home and got cleaned up for a campfire at Caitlin Coleman’s house. It was so nice outside, and the campfire wasn’t too intense; it was just right. We hung out there for a while and then went over to Allie’s for a bit too.

On a different note, and I don’t mean to step on anyone’s toes here, but lately I’ve been searching for the true meaning of friendship (sounds lame, I know, but I’m for real). I’ve compiled a list of qualities that I find not only ideal, but necessary to truly be considered a friend in my eyes. Here it goes:

A true friend…

1. …Is someone who understands all of your inside jokes.
2. …Is someone who might have a different opinion than you, but still respects you and how you feel.
3. …Can talk to you about anything, anytime (and vice versa).
4. …Doesn’t put up a front or facade when around others.
5. …Will call you or visit you when you are clearly not okay.
6. …Doesn’t turn on you. Ever. Period.
7. …Smiles when they see you somewhere. They don’t act like they don’t see you.
8. …Will always be straightforward with you, even if it hurts.
9. …Will not leave you for something or someone better, even if it’s a really awesome party that you were invited to and your friend wasn’t haha.
10. ..Is always your friend, even when it’s not cool.

If I have learned one thing in my life, it is this: good friends are really hard to come by.

Goodnight!
