Three Things Thursday

by MissAmber on February 25, 2010 · 33 comments

in Canada, meme

Morgan does this meme on Thursday’s and since I’m on the SLOWEST LAPTOP KNOWN TO MANKIND right now I needed a post that was short and sweet.

1. On that last note, my laptop IS in Kamloops but is currently being held hostage by FedEx. I will be procuring it today. Can’t wait!!!

2. F ya, Team Canada. F ya. Not only did we clean up with medals in the last couple days but our men’s hockey team KILLED Russia last night.

Watch out USA, we’re coming for you in the gold medal game ;)

3. Exactly two months from today Eric and I will be jetting off to Europe! I have a feeling it’s going to sneak up on us real fast. Which kind of makes me nervous because I have a lot to do before then.

What are your three things this Thursday?

Oh, so exciting that your laptop!!

And even more, the thought of Europe! :) You’re going to have so much fun, I can’t wait to see the pics and hear all about the trip.

I can’t believe your trip is 2 months away - it is going to come so fast! How exciting!

My 3 things:

1. I can not wait for noon tomorrow when I get to leave work & head to the airport. I fly out to Phoenix at 2:30 :) Can’t wait!

2. I have had the weirdest breakfast cravings lately. One day I had rice which is kind of random.

3. I’m so annoyed with my knee right now. :( Seeing a doctor next week, hope she can help me figure out what is going on & how to get back to running asap!

1) In approximately a month and a half, my hubby and I will be heading to New York for the first time for a week vacation!!

2) This is my last day of work with kids this week … tomorrow is teacher convention, which is a social event.

3) I am NOT a morning person. I LOVE to sleep in!!

1. Why the heck is the sun so pretty yet the temperature so frigid, and why did the weather go haywire right before a race?
2. You know what, work scheduler, I don’t appreciate that you changed my schedule AFTER I showed up to work. So I worked for 2 free hours. Hmph.
3. I really hate oatmeal. I don’t know why I made it for breakfast just to stare at it in my bowl then throw it out.

1. I caught my husband’s head cold. I probably should have called in sick to work today (which would help me have energy for a big meeting tomorrow), but I knew there were not going to be a lot of people here so I didn’t.
2. I have been eating waaaaaaay too many girl scout cookies this week.
3. We got rid of our table last night (we never use it) and were able to move the couch from our bedroom (yeah you read that right!) back into the living room. We have so much more seating now and it looks like a whole new room!

Your trip to Europe will be here before you know it!

1. I was up until 3 last night watching Olympic coverage.
2. That turned out ok because we got 6 inches of snow and the University had a 2.5 hour delay this morning.
3. I am incredibly happy to only have to work a 5 hour day today.

1. This is my first year properly watching any Olympics at all and last night even though I’m still not a Canadian, I couldn’t help but cheer. It was awesome!
2. I decided I want to bobsled. Professionally. For the rest of my life.
3. We finally bought a flat screen TV yesterday… but it was too big to take home, so we have to wait til our Friend With a Truck is back from vacation this weekend. *Pouts* :)

1. I’m 30 weeks pregnant today ~ 10-ish weeks until Baby arrives (and a few more than that until I can ride again!) Yay!
2. I got my bonus from work yesterday and am SO going shopping today and tomorrow. (Yes, I planned 2 days of vacation around my bonus. It’s only slightly pathetic …)
3. GO CANADA GO!!!

1. I have fallen off the Olympics bandwagon for American Idol. And no, it was not worth it. The contestants have been AWFUL this year.
2. I’ve been grinding my teeth a lot lately. I’ve never had this problem before so it’s a little odd.
3. I’m going to my 2nd spin class today! My first one was years ago so I’m a little excited but mostly nervous. Yay!

1. I need to start focusing on the two papers I have to write AND my research.
2. My calf muscles are feeling really tight :(
3. I’m in love with Irish breakfast tea.

The best feeling is when you two are packed to the brim and on the plane to Europe (in which you’ll imbibe in free alcohol and giddily talk about the places you can’t wait to see…or just listen to some tunes). I’m excited for you. You’re going to have a BLAST.

Reply

33 Nora February 26, 2010 at 5:38 PM

What a great idea! I love it =)

I love rooting for Canada during the Olympics just as much as the U.S. Probably cause I know so many fabulous men & women who live there :)
