I've never been so excited to go to the Doctor's in my life! In fact, doctors (or dentists more precisely, but pretty much any medical place) are in the top 3 of my list of most hated things (saying goodbyes and working out being the other two). But the reason that I'm excited to go tomorrow is that I may finally have my ears healed or at least be given medicine to help them heal - I have not been able to hear normally for almost a month. Today was the worst so far. I literally could not hear most of what people were trying to say to me. Dismal.
But I actually had a wonderful evening apart from that. Dinner with my wonderful boyfriend and his family and then the new flick " Julie & Julia" afterward (not only is my boyfriend the sweetest, most selfless person you will ever meet, he also has excellent taste in jewelry and brought me a lovely antique[?] necklace back from his trip to Iowa. If you're not already green with envy, you should be ;)). I loved it! I very rarely love movies but I truly enjoyed every moment of that film. It reminded me that true love can last in a marriage. I also got a good laugh out of the struggling blogger stereotypes (though Julie's blog hardly had a hard time gathering a following - that's a little unrealistic in my experience) and was once again heart-warmed at the thought of what an excellent meal can do for even the wretchedest person. I hope you get a chance to see it as well. Also, I would just like to say that I have a sister named Julia and I think it is a beautiful name, though I distinctly remember thinking otherwise when my parents were choosing names. Hehe.

My job is in it's last day or two and I'm making tiny steps of progress in landing a new one. I'm sure there will be more updates if anything comes of it. School starts in 2 weeks and I have leftover fish with grapes and almonds, a kiwi and some twice baked potatoes for lunch tomorrow. Life is good.
I'm about to hit the hay, but here is a photo, lest you think my blog has been sabotaged (via byrdandbleeker). It speaks for itself (it makes me smile so!).
