What a week.
An historical week. As most of you know, I voted for John McCain. However, now that we have president-elect Obama I will support him because that is my duty as an American! It bothers me when people 'bash' our president just because they don't agree with their views. Probably more than half the time, those people don't even know what their views are. I'm sure Obama/Biden will do great...any president, Republican or Democrat going into office right now would have a hard time due to economy, war, stock market, etc. We must have faith in our country.
Once again, this week flew bye, bye, bye. It certainly got cold today...I got to wear my long purple winter coat to work :) However, yesterday I didn't have a 'great' day. I usually have 'okay' days, sometimes 'great' days...however, I'm starting to think that everyone needs to have a bad day occasionally just to even everything out. I mean, I don't know a person that has a 'great' day every day of their life. Do you? Anyway...it's kind of funny now that I look back on it, even though I wasn't very happy yesterday! Every one knows that I drive a 1996 Honda Civic that sounds like a boat, the windows don't go down, and as of yesterday the shifter fell apart. Don't get me wrong...the damn thing still drives like a dream, except now, when I go to switch gears, there's nothing to grab...are you laughing yet? As I realize this, my iphone stops working. (Which made me even more angry because I live and die by my phone and feel like my life is going to end without a telephone.) Thankfully, our web developer has an iphone and he looked at it, reset it, and now it works perfectly again. So, I complain about my car at least once a day knowing in the back of my mind that the car is still perfect. I say this because, the interior is absoulutely perfect and engine runs like it's brand new. I think in January I will be getting a new car. Bless Derrick's heart, every day he says, "Babe, you know you can drive my truck, and I'll take your car." I just can't do that to him! He loves his truck. I forgot to mention this...in the middle of the day, my boss needed me to run to Target, so when I got there, I still was feeling down so I went and walked around the Christmas section for a couple minutes and that made me feel a little better ;) ha ha ha
Any way, my bad day ended with something good. I went home from work, put comfy clothes on, laid down with my puppy dog, watched TV and Derrick brought home pizza and wings. That made my day...imagine that...food, making my day!! Oh yeah, then we watched Grey's Anatomy...ummm did anyone else see it, can you say SAD! I sat there and cried, even Derrick turned to me and said, "This is really sad tonight." (Personally, I think Grey's has excellent story lines.)
This weekend is going to be another good one! Derrick, of course, hunting again. Me, however, tonight I am going to my brother's play-off varsity football game! Then tomorrow my mom and I are going to look for wedding dresses~hopefully I have some luck, I'm so picky about that stuff. Then tomorrow night is Liz's hayride at her farm! I'm stoked about that! So many friends are going to be there! Friends are good...life is good, even when you have a bad day.

Lauren,
I hear ya on the bad day... today is my bad day. Your car story did make me laugh though, so thanks for that!
And thanks for sharing your views on the election. I appreciate hearing that amount of respect for the presidential office from someone under the age of 30. You know what I mean by that, I'm sure.
Anyways, I really liked your post today... it echoed a lot of how I have been feeling this week. And that's exciting about your purple coat! I think it's fun breaking out all these cozy winter clothes. It makes me want coffee and hot chocalate like every day.
Hope all is well! Have a good weekend.
Kim
