A Case of the Mondays?

Well, I think the title says it all- It's Monday and there isn't a lot of good things to say about today. Nothing terrible is happening, but it just seems to be a bla day- Nothing to look foward to, nothing going on, and nothing but a lot of work. Ok, so actually while it is a busy week for me because my boss is in Paris and I have to take care of all of his affairs, my days are not nearly as busy as Jarad's. His Mon, Tue, & Wednesdays are filled with work and school with not a lot of down time before, during, or after.

He works hard at everything he does, and I know these days prove to be exhausting for him. I try to keep a positive attitude for his sake, I try to help him think that these days are so terribly long and tiring, but ultimately he's said it before and I'll say it again... It's a sacrifice he is making and working through in order to better himself for the future, and obviously he is making and saving a lot of money that I definately did not by going to college full time and working very very part time. So, I admire him and I'm proud of him and even though he isn't working hard to impress anyone... It simply makes me love him even more, despite the challenges we face.. So, Mon-Wed is my Omaha time because he has basically told me that on these days he barely has time to breathe, let alone put effort into being cheerful in a relationship. And personally, I'd rather be around happy and rested Jarad, than stressed and exhausted Jarad. Unless of course, he needs me, at which point he could be any Jarad he chooses and I'd be there.

So that's what is on my mind this not so cheerful Monday morning. I've avoided the roomate/wall situation so far, I love the blue wall and it makes me happy so the heck with whatever she thinks. Census has it, that I could have painted that wall any damn color and she would still hate it, for two reasons... one- the hostile attitude she's been giving me the last couple of weeks and two- the fact that she wasn't a part of the process, she had no control over it and I think that bothers her a bit. Ahh well, life goes on.

On a separate note, What do boys want and/or like for Valentines Day?! I've been thinking about this, and I really would like to do something special... but I haven't the slightest clue what special would be to a boy, on a typically "girl focused" holiday. Well, I do have ONE idea... but I can't spoil the surprise, in the small freakish chance that you, and you know who you are, actually reads this far into my silly little blog :)

I think I'm going to wrap this up for now. I have some research to do, now that I've been thinking about gifts ... Peace, Love, and Harmony Dudes and Dudettes <3
