Where Has The Time Gone?
Gah, I've been away from Vox for so long! Actually, I've been away from all my social websites for a long time. These past two weeks have been unbelievably busy at work, so I haven't had any downtime to get on and blog/comment like I usually do. I also joined a nearby gym and have been going over during my lunch break to work out, so no time during lunch to get on either. By the time I get home, I'm drained, and all I feel like doing is watching movies or reading books (which I've been very busy doing!). But oh well, that is life, and life gets busy. Things are hopefully going to calm down a little at work since the website I was working on for the past few weeks finally went live. So far, so good (meaning, it hasn't broken yet!).
Let's see... to recap what has happened in the last few weeks:
* My sister moved out on her own. I'm very proud of her - she has a full-time job and a new roommate, and I know this was a very big step for her. Things can only get better from here, I hope!
* Matt and I spent last weekend in Fort Collins with Steve. I had a really fun time hanging out at his place and playing Astropop on his Xbox (awesome game!). Being back in FC made me really miss school. I'm having nostalgia pains already.
* Spent $400 on new tires, new brake pads, and an oil change. My car really needed some maintenance so I bit the bullet and got it all done. I hate the fact that I had to spend $400 on this stuff, but love the fact that I can spend $400 and still not be worried about money. I also paid off the loan to my parents in full, so any income from here on out will be a positive income. Yay!
* Dinner with friends... I was able to have dinner with Karina one night, and Kelsey another night. I really miss seeing them both as often as I used to. And congrats to Kelsey for getting into the University of Washington graduate school program. I can't wait to go visit her in Seattle this summer. ^__^
* The Office is back on TV, to my massive pleasure. I absolutely love that show, and could hardly wait until it came back on TV. Last week's episode was excellent, and I'm really looking forward to tonight's.
* Have made plans for some more furniture purchases here in the next month or two. My room will be almost complete!
* Working out at the gym.... it's hard to make myself get there, but once I'm there, I really enjoy myself. I'm certainly not as in shape as I used to be, but it's just something more to work for, right?
That's about all, folks! I'll try to keep this thing more updated (more for me than anyone), now that things are dying down a little at work. Tomorrow is Friday, and I think Matt and I are going to get some sushi for dinner and then just hang out at the house. I love weekends... they're full of sleeping, eating, shopping, and cleaning. :D

Say Hi to your sister for me. :)
Great to hear life is treating you right and that your sister has taken a step to become more responsible in her life, with living at home too easy to get bailed out and keeping her from gaining the confidence in becoming a reliant individual.
What about Rudy, sure its good to know how you and Matt are doing and that life is going great and I can see from your post you have been going fully on reading new books, this is all good and its not a bad price for brakes and oil change and tires, a starter on my truck cost $400 and then the cost to install it. Oh yah good to hear from you nice to know everything going good in your life but HOWS RUDY?????
Also so glad to hear you're keeping up the workouts! Hehehe.... Ha.. I was going to take a day off today, but now I'm thinking I should do it! Thanks for the inspiration!
Hugs
