Note to self: isnt it ironic

It should be duelly noted that the weather is fabulous today.
Chicago is melting like a soggy popsicle and its wonderful. I am wearing a light coat that had not been worn since the early days of fall. O this is lovely my friends.
Had a great weekend indeed!
Saturday i went shopping with the girls downtown and it was delicious weather as well!
Got a few items but not too much as Mike and I are saving up for Africa.
Mike found and joined a gym which he loves found some people to play basketball with and went both saturday and sunday. Mike gets irritable i think when he can not play any sort of sport or activity, he loves the work out so the gym is a genius for him.
Sunday was a perfect day as well, Mike and I went to church and that was really good message. we love this song but we cant seem to figure out who it is by and where to by it, its called your beautiful and its not by james blunt. Its so fantastic we love it. And they played it Sunday at church and the service got intense and Holy Spirit came down i feel like. 
it was great.
So then mike and i came home made food laughed smiled watched some the football pro bowl game wished we were in Hawaii and some basketball, Mike ran over to the gym i did homework we got the laundry done and called it a day!
Its funny kind of- I have this really great british lit II class on the 5th floor of carlson tower, but this floor is the nursing floor. Nursing propaganda line the walls of the hall way, and students in blue scrubs and white coats pace in between their classes, and since i first came to North Park  I would allow my self to wander up the stairs to that floor and walk around reading the job postings as  various hospitals, and different nurse-isms and i am sure my pale freckly face would have a green hues along the edges. I could not wait for it to be my turn to get up here. But this is not meant to be. I will not end my collegiate career crawling this hallway, but i cannot help but congratulate the delicious irony of the fact I am here on the 5th floor its just not the original plan of getting here, but i will say, I am here. And i am in my niche.
thanks.
Enjoy the weather my friends because its fabuloussss.
