I'm back!

Feb 26, 2009

I didn't realize how long it has been since I last posted.  I got so busy with taking that big pharmacy certification exam and then getting back to my normal life (sorta).  I guess I should catch everyone up.  I took that big certification test at the beginning of October and found out two and a half months later that I passed.  So, YEAH!   After that I took an exciting trip to Des Moines, Iowa for a chapter visit for one of the collegiate chapters in my pharmacy fraternity.  Had to go play LKS police and make sure they are doing everything they are supposed to be doing.  Later that month in October, a couple of my friends and I flew to NYC for an NKOTB concert   at Madison Square Garden.  For you youngin's out there that stands for New Kids on the Block and yes they are still together and just got back together for a big tour.  Check out their new CD, The Block,  it is pretty good!  Well, I barely survived NYC as I came down with a case of the stomach flu from Hades.  I still managed to shop in China Town and go to a show (we saw Spamalot and it was awesome), but I did manage to lose quite a few pounds thanks to that. Although, I would not recommend weight loss via that route . 

November was a little less busy, but I still had to get caught up with all the stuff I had to put on hold for the test.  December calmed down too.  January flew by so fast that I am having a hard time believing that Easter will be here soon. 

Let's see...what did I do in February?  Worked, then went to St. Louis for another fun filled chapter visit.  Worked some more.  Was supposed to go to Indianapolis for another fun filled chapter visit, but had to cancel that one thanks to a wind storm and losing some shingles from my roof.  Still waiting for insurance to approve getting that fixed.  I got to go on a retreat with my RCIA (aka Catholic) class and had a fabulous time.  Worked again and then found out on Ash Wednesday that I got insurance approval .  So, as I am giving up coffee for Lent I will also be weaning myself off of caffeine and carbonation.  I guess in the back of my mind I never thought this would happen.  I guess I subconsciously chalked it up to not likely.  So, I guess now everything will be down hill from here.

I guess 2009 is going to be a big year of changes.  I am going to get banded and get baptized at Easter so that I can officially join the Catholic Church.  Watch out 2009...here I come.
