Of this week's shows, all I've seen is Dancing with the Stars and New Girl. And I admit that the only reason I watched DwtS is because I've kind of gotten my mom hooked on it, so she's all "You don't want to watch Dancing with the Stars?" Monday when I get home from work and doesn't stop any time I sit down in front of the TV until we watch it. Which is kind of nice. Sure, a majority of my shows are still just things I watch, but having something that someone else wants to watch with me is fun, especially a show like that. Most of my other shows I can at least talk about them after the fact with one of my friends.
Today is my birthday, which we make into a big deal in my family. You get to chose the menu, don't have to do any chores, get breakfast in bed, and, of course, presents. I asked for this day off of work months ago, and since it's a Wednesday, I'm class-free, too. So, how do I want to spend this day that's all about me? I'm making my mom take me on a hike and I'm using all my brand-new hiking gear. Maybe 2 weeks after I broke my ankle, I found an amazing deal on a pair of shoes for hiking (half-off a pair of higher end shoes, which made them cheaper than the lower-end ones I'd gone to the store to price) and I finally get to use them (the 30 min walk around the neighborhood to make sure the supported my foot and ankle doesn't count). And for my birthday today, I got a brand new purple Camelbak L.U.X.E. and some hiking socks designer for warmer climates. Score! So I'm going out, I'm hopefully doing all seven miles and I am giving my virgin gear a break-in!
