January is an important month for me because I feel it really sets the stage for the rest of the year. Last year, I had a fabulous start to 2012 and the rest of the year definitely followed suit. It may be a little superstitious, but mostly I think starting the year off with a bang motivates and inspires me to keep striving for more awesome things.
Partly due to those things but more because I really just miss my best friend, I made a really spontaneous decision to visit Meggie in Pittsburgh. We were planning for a little bit later in the year, but turns out earlier worked better and I got a great deal on plane tickets. For this month. Specifically, in EIGHT days. WHAT?! I had to just look at a calendar to realize that, and now I’m even more excited than I already was, and now I’m getting the happy butterflies and I WANT TO TYPE IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE I’M SO HAPPY.
Meggie and I usually only see each other once a year, so I feel super spoiled and giddy to be able to see my very best friend twice in a five-month period. She finally turned twenty-one last month, so this will be our first time to be able to go out and party together. Pittsburgh is also a New Year’s resolution of mine, and Pennsylvania will be a new state to cross off of my list. I hear it’s a wonderful city and I can’t believe I get to explore it so soon and with my best friend of nearly twelve years. It’s been a busy work-week for me, so all of this is soaking in as I type and I just want to jump up and down. Excuse me. Okay, I just finished a little happy dance in which I jumped up and down and waved my hands wildly in the air. I’m sure it looked really attractive. Guys, I’m going to Pittsburgh in eight days!
2013 is off to a pretty amazing start, y’all.
Have an awesome trip!
Thank-you! 🙂
EEEKK girl time YAY!! Have a blast!
thanks lady! 😀
WOW! Starting off 2013 with a visit to a friend you don’t see often, and getting a great deal on that visit too, sets an awesome tone for the year. As usual you’re gonna continue to do it all!
Hehe 🙂 That’s what I’m hoping for!
awww gosh..I am SO happy for you. My best friends live across the country or in the U.K. It is TOUGH. I’m soo happy you get to see each other. ENJOY it!
Also, SO very true that January sets the done. I had a rough start to the year last year, and the year didn’t get better. haha.
2013 has been great so far though. 😀
Ahhh I don’t know if I could handle Meg living in another country….A different state is hard enough!
I’m glad 2013 is going good for you thus far as well! Hope it just keeps getting better for ya! 🙂

Right! It’s a mindset thing for me ….and it’s hard to change a mindset once it’s already set in place! Or something. I have an ear infection and am loopy from meds right now so don’t mind my rambling 😛 And thank-you!
