I had it bad a few weeks ago with my health, but now that I'm on meds that are actually working FOR me instead of against me, things are looking up. Just wanted to share some good stuff!~
I've been working 4 hours a day for the conference I'm planning in October. It's nice having the extra $. And I actually went to get a new phone for my mom today! Seems she's been paying her cell bill but hasn't had a phone since April.  She left it in her mother's house when she went for the funeral, and it's been there ever since. 
So I got her a new Nokia 61-something-i. It was only $30 after a $50 rebate, plus $25 for a replacement SIM card. Nice to do something nice for someone.
And I got to drive my BF's new car to the cell store. I find I'm getting great service wherever I show up in it... It's the new 350Z (black, leather, convertible) 
We looked at the Pontiac and Saturn convertibles but they were a little, uh, cheap. The plastic on the dashes looked really bad, so we went to the Nissan dealership. I love the Z (my BF was like, "can I? Can I?" ). No need to convince me. My BF in high school had a red on he let me drive. It's a sweeet ride!
The best part? His boss paid for it.
It's been a good couple of weeks. I'm going to Las Vegas in a couple weeks to visit my 2 lesbian friends, plus 2 other friends who are coming in from England and Scotland. BF is none too happy (What could happen? ), but I need a girl's weekend out. It's nice to have a trip to look forward to, plus my London friend is bringing me some Ribena, my favorite drink of all time. Yee hah!
Hope everyone's having a good week! I'm happy as a clam.

Sounds great, Nelly! Btw, are you coming up to Philly any time soon? Send me an email and let me know!
I'm officially a grad student, started classes on Monday. Classes aren't bad, it's the hour train ride from my condo in NJ to Philly every morning that's wiping me out!
