New Year, Schmew Year

Yep, it's been a long time since I've blogged. And since I am almost three weeks into the new year, and have no desire to go to great lengths of explaining my doings, I will give a bulleted list of the most exciting/stressful/recent/interesting/random facts of my 2009 thus far. Ready?

• After today, I have 39 days left of being officially single.
• After today, I have 39 days before I become Jewish-by-marriage.
• I'm still recovering from a traumatic experience involving a sneeze and my gynecologist.
• "Hey Lauren, can you plan a baby shower two weeks before your wedding?" Sure.
• When minimized, my internet window reads "Blogger: Fart"
• My best friend will be back on American soil in less than two weeks and I get to hear her voice for the first time in almost 9 months.
• Inappropriate jokes among friends are ok. Inappropriate jokes among coworkers, former professors, and your mother are not.
• Always, always, always keep your gas task filled when it's -15 outside.
• Always, always, always keep jumper cables in your car.
• Take advantage of coupons, even if it seems like you're robbing the good people of Hobby Lobby.
• I voted for Barack Obama and shamelessly enjoyed watching his inaugural speech during work hours.
• My fiance and I have started the Total Money Makeover and thus-ly I have not purchased Starbucks in over two days. This is progress.
• I am in complete denial that I will have to share my coveted space with a boy.
• I am in complete denial that said boy will create a significant mess.
• I am guilty of watching lame reality shows including, but not limited to, "Tool Academy," "Mama's Boys," MTV's "True Life," and "Diet Tribe."
• I started running again.
• I quit running. Again.
• I started running again.
• My idea of a good Sunday afternoon read is Ramona Quimby: Age 8.
• "Wanted" is a terrible movie. Don't ever rent it.
• "Baby Mama" is a great movie. Go rent it.
• Yes, I went back and counted all of the bullet points and wrote this one so that they would end in an even number.

So there you have it. Maybe once I actually learn how to use this thing I can post some pictures of my life's progress. But we all know just how on the ball I am....
