It's always nice to make new friends

I got a new friend today. Pretty happy about that.

Lots to tell today honey, it was a very interesting day!
First off, in my Psych class this morning, she gave back those papers we had to write, hehehe... 50 points possible. I got 55 (bonus points for being ON TIME!) Very few people actually turned theirs in on time, so those of us who did, got 5 bonus. She really liked my paper, too...kept referring to it throughout her lecture today (it actually did apply to what she was talking about, she wasn't just interrupting herself to talk about my fabulous paper)

After we got out of there, Karmeen and I headed to Fargo. I heard through a friend that my favorite bookstore over there is moving, and therefor everything at the old location is on clearance! So we had to go check it out! Wow, what fun... (I'll give a hint, it's not a bookstore like Barnes and Noble is a bookstore... there's no children's section in this kind of 'bookstore'!!)

When I got home, it is payday after all, so I got about the business of writing checks and balancing money.
I am not a patient person. I do not like to wait. I want results and I want them NOW. Instant gratification, THAT is what I'm talking about.
(what the hell is she talking about? you're wondering... well, here it is)
I called the bank that holds our Kia note. I had called them back in February (the 12th of Feb, almost exactly 2 months ago, and the balance was $17,163.) to see where we were starting from. I couldn't wait any longer, after sending them our Federal tax refund and a bunch more money, etc, so today when I called, I was expecting our balance to be in the 9K range... hehehe. I love how interest works!
Balance today: $7,785.

I did get one thing that bummed me out today. We got a wedding invitation in the mail today. Sam is getting married. That's not what makes me sad, Sam is a great guy, and his soon-to-be wife is just a sweetheart. What bums me is the date. They're getting married on June 2nd. I know I should go, I think JP would want me to go to congratulate them on our behalf... but I don't want to go alone. I just wish he was here. Same thing will happen in July when his niece Nikki gets married. I will go, and the kids will go, probably spend the weekend down there, but I will spend the time wishing he was there.

Oh hell, I am NOT going to get all bummed out and depressed now, darn it! Too many good things happened today to get like this!
