But I did have a wonderful birthday and Thanksgiving:) Have to love the feeling of having ate wayyyyyy too much (that is exactly the way I am feeling STILL and it 10:00PM..lol) After the festivities Michelle and I decided we didn't want to just go home so we hit up the mall and saw Twilight. Now, I didn't read the books like I was planning on doing, however, I was obsessed with Buffy as a kid, then of course Angel, and even liked that show Moonlight that was on for like 1 season, so I figured that I would like it. And it was a great movie! If you have a chance, definitely check it out.
Other than that, I haven't had any exciting things to report. I have started to freak about not having accomplished very much for my age and with the big 30 approaching I started to think that should try to like buy a house or something. Now, I should have probably thought about this several months ago, because with most mortgage companies wanted 20% down, not sure I can swing it. I mean, who really has $50,000 just sitting in the bank...well..NOT ME!!
So that is definitely on my list of things that I would like to accomplish, of course there is the whole getting married and having kids thing (but that of course is not that easy!)....buying a house is at least something I can do on my own...LOL
Anyway, I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving today with your families. Maybe I will be in the mood to write more often in the coming weeks:)

It's been quite the week....
...to say the least. Michelle and I keep trying to make light of things by saying, "Remember Monday?" and laughing a little at how uncomfortable the memory of that day is. Black Monday as some are calling it. We all went to work at our place of employment that day, doing insurance type things...and many were sent home with their belongings in boxes, in tears....what a day indeed.
Yes, I am very lucky to have my job and I am thanking the lord every day that I still have it! I am just so sorry for all those people at work that did lose their job and want to wish them the best of luck. I know that everything will be OK.
I am going to keep watching the news to see what happens to GE Consumer and Industrial, because if that is sold...we all know what that means for us....but until then I am going to sit in my cube, take the abuse the stress, and thank god when I get that check every two weeks.
So I said goodbye to many people this week and also said hello to a new President....so hopefully things look will brighter soon:)

Weight Loss by Hypnosis
So, I have hit an all time low people and a couple of weeks ago my Mom called and told me that she and I were going to get hypnotized...well...it happened and I am hoping that it works!!
Bascially we went to Salem (I know, the day before Halloween, we were desperate) to the Hawthorne Hotel and met with this theraptist who specializes in weight loss and stop smoking.
There was a room of about 15 of us and it took about 1 hour. After we were hypnotized and given our ideal weight, we were on our way to lose weight subconsiously. I hope it works!!
To keep it up, he also gave us a CD that we are to listen to every night before we go to bed and one to listen to during the day (to get a subliminal message).
I am crossing my fingers that it helps me!!!

Halloween Update
I just wanted to update you all on my Halloween 2008. Well...it was a work day as usual, but I was running on basically 2 hours of sleep. This was because either children but more likely Endicott College kids scared the crap out of me the night before. I seriously thought someone was breaking into the house. So I stood guard at the top of the stairs ready to call the police at a given notice.....
But it ends up (and I found this out the next morning) that they had just come up on our porch and stole my Jack-O-Lantern. I know!!! My poor pumpkin!! Jerks.....there went any thoughts of lighting him up for the 2 trick or treaters we were hoping to get!
BUT it was a monumental year...we got 10 trick or treaters! Yes, we did !! And because we get so few kids each year, we bought full size candy bars. Yup, we were the favorite house on the street...go us!
