Everybody Needs a Day Like Today

Before I go to bed, I wanted to brag a little bit. I have had a fantastic day!! First let me start with a random chain of events:
-Ryan and I move to Houston into out third floor apt. and are estatic!
-Notice the VERY strong smoke smell in our apt and decide we have to move.
-After waiting for a month to move, we finally do, but have boxes everywhere due to no time to unpack and settle in.
-Hurricane Ike hits.....
-Boxes everywhere plus water damage
-Maintanence comes TODAY! (one hooray) to fix the drywall. They rip out a lot of walls...
-Findings: TERMITES!!!
Surprisingly, I am cool with this and actually laughing at the random chain of events that have brought us to this point. Honestly, who would have guessed all of these weird incidences coming together!? Anyway, we are unsure if the apt. knows about it (they have a contractor doing the jobs) but if the contractor does not say something....we definietly are!!!

On to the great day.......Yesterday was terrible. Horrible test, LONG lecture, got singled out in class for talking(I was NOT even talking!!!!). I decided to check the tracking on the wedding invitatinos though and it said they were delivered here on Thursday. Funny because it is Monday and I have no invitations! After a little freaking out and frustration.....I have wedding invitations!!! That started the good day today. Then, class this AM was pretty interesting and Ryan called me with GREAT news......He got the job!!! My fiance has his first job in his career choice! I am soo proud of him and estatic!!! I was screaming on the phone when he told me(mind you I was in the computer lab)! Next news he tells me is they are working on our apartment. This is great news because we thought it was going to take them at least a month to get anything done and also because we miss our puppies SOOO bad. They are with the grandparents now until the apartment is fixed, organized and people are done coming in and out. Yeah!! Job and apartment!! Ryan was so excited about his job that we decided to go to the mall and actually order his wedding band. Check that off the list to do! We were so relaxed though we just walked around the mall, browsed around and enjoyed spending time with each other and not spending time studying. Is it bad that lately all of our "dates" have been study dates!!? It was great having an afternoon, just him and I, together and laughing about little things that are important to us. Sooo sweet too! We walked past Build a Bear and Ryan asked me if I wanted one. So, Ryan and I made a bear for me for night when Ryan sleeps on the couch or when we are apart. He is so adorable. Came home then to cook supper together and to our surprise, one of the movies I have been wanting to see came in on netflix. Sex in the city. Ryan offered to watch it with me too! So to end our magical day, we ate supper and watched sex in the city, the movie. He didn't finish the movie with me, but it really was a treat to have him all day to myself!

Fantastic day and I hope you all have a chance to spend a day like this with the one you care the most about! :) Now I have to get some sleep so I can think tomorrow while I am interning!
