Ushering 2010

Brian and I got a Nintendo Wii for Christmas from his parents. One of the smarter moves I have made in life was convincing Brian that we should purchase a Wii Fit in lieu of Christmas presents for one another. I have been diligent in Wii Fitting daily, much to the pleasure of my Mii's trainer. I actually can exercise for an extended period of time without becoming bored. Hopefully this will stick in the upcoming year. The only unfortunate part is that I am weighed daily.

New Years is rolling in uneventfully in suburban Jackson. Luckily I was able to secure a bag of blackeyed peas for the new year. I'm 99% positive that Mississippi is the only state in the US in which blackeyed peas are flying off the shelves. I am excited to start this tradition and plan to carry it on the rest of my life. Blackeyed peas bring good luck in the upcoming year--and luck is something you can never have enough of.

Exhausted

I am exhausted for two reasons: the first being that I got home from a two week stint in Mississippi where I did nothing but homework for twelve hours a day so my brain is mush, and the second that I am in the midst of packing up everything in my apartment--I say "I" because everything happens to belong to me so Brian can't really sort through any of it.
Needless to say, we have a long couple of weeks ahead of us. But we are still having lots of fun despite all the madness and are excited to be moving!

A Reluctant Beginning

So I've been vehemently opposed to blogging for numerous reasons, but I'm finally caving in. More blogs will follow.
