the weekend...

...minus the fact that i was hit directly in the head by a dodgeball from my boyfriend tonight, it was a great weekend. i have been wanting to get away for a while but just don't have the money to do it right now. so the next best thing was to check out mentally for a few days. i slept alot this weekend, hung out with my family and had an awesome night out with friends on saturday. i've felt really blessed lately in every part of my life. my friends and i are starting to find each other again in this wierd post college (even though it's been 2 years) world. they are taking on new adventures which inspire and encourage me. i got a raise at work :-) and i'm just joyful in general.

at the same time, i'm craving an adventure. this is the longest i've stayed put somewhere since college. i have the same job and am doing pretty much the same things as i was six months ago. not that i'm bored, just antsy. i think about d.c. alot, not in a regretful way but in an endearing way. my time there in college shaped alot of the thoughts and opinions i carry with me now, i was lucky to have that experience. i think i'm going to start taking arabic again. i heard a word in arabic this weekend and it sounded so beautiful....

not much else to report...i think i'll read and go to bed. g'nite all.
