Thirteen Things about LINDSEY

I’m back to Thursday Thirteen-ing! Yay!!!

1. Since I withdrew from grad school, I need to get a job. And I have no idea where to start, cause I thought I wouldn’t be doing this search for another 8 months. Any ideas? Know of any jobs in North Carolina?

2. Now that I’m not going to school every day, I’ve got a lot more time on my hands, and I’ve been accomplishing a lot at home. I’ve sorted through a lot of things and I’ve gotten a lot of cleaning done.

3. With that free time I managed to buy ALL my Christmas presents! As in, I’m done! Unless something pops up last minute, my presents are finished.

4. I’ve also gotten all my Christmas cards addressed - still haven’t written them, but the addressing is done.

5. And since I’m updating on my life and goings on, I should mention that I’ve made progress on my 101 in 1001! Today I am 32.47% through with the time, and I’ve completed 37.62% of my tasks. I’m pretty excited about that! Since I last posted about the 101, here are the things I’ve finished:

6. I completed #2 - regularly updating my faith blog, Reading Red Letters. I would still like to update more often, but I have been doing well thus far, and hopefully it will continue to be this way!

7. My brother Bo is a freshman in college, and #7 on my list was keeping in touch with him. Not only have we kept in touch, but we see each other fairly often - once every other week or so. It’s been great, I’m so glad that he’s up here!

8. I’ve also got #14 down - I’m regularly flossing, LOL!

9. And regularly taking my vitamins (#16).

10. Well, #28 was to set up a new place to live after graduation, but now that I’m not in school, I guess that I completed that one back in July, LOL!

11. With my new budget I’ve maintained saving $5 a day (#32) - hint, I take it out of my account as soon as I get my check.

12. #49 was to maintain cleaning apartment at least once a month. Now I have FlyLady. ‘Nuff said. (P.S. - you should ALL be FLYing!)

13. One of the best things about living with Matt and Ben is that Matt is very into politics, and he knows that in general I am not an idiot, so I can ask as many stupid politics questions as I want and he won’t judge me. So I ask them all the time - check off #51!

This sounds about right . . .

You Are 36% Republican

You’re a bit Republican, and probably more conservative than you realize. If you’re still voting Democrat, maybe it’s time that you stop.

You Are 12% Democrat

If you have anything in common with the Democrat party, it’s by sheer chance. You’re a staunch conservative, and nothing is going to change that!

Thirteen Things about LINDSEY!

1. I love sleeping when it’s raining outside. When I’m at home, if it’s a rainy morning, my mom always lets me sleep in late. I miss rainy mornings.

2. My history class that I loathe was cancelled today. WOO HOO!

3. I’m currently doing a workshop with performance artist Tim Miller. It is so interesting, and such a unique opportunity. I may not agree with his politics or choices, but I can appreciate him as an artist, and I am learning LOTS!

4. Somehow I always manage to overcook the top of the Digornio pizza. ALWAYS. And I’m cooking it at the recommended temperature at the shortest time . . . sigh.

5. I’ve made a huge dent in entering all my books into a computerized database - so far the count is in the 300s . . . oops.

6. My friends and I played Book Lover’s Trivial Pursuit this weekend . . . and realized just how little we know . . .

7. I just watched Being John Malcovich for the first time last night, and it BLEW MY MIND . . . loved it.

8. Finally discovered the new Starbucks drink . . . Marble Mocha Macchiato . . . I’d known about it for a while, but I just tried it. Delish.

9. I could really go for a chocolate chip cookie right now.

10. I have to give notice on my apartment tomorrow. This means that I will officially not have a home after May 31. This makes me veeeeeeeeeery nervous . . . can we please start the aparment/house search yet? Please guys?

11. Living Parables is performing in Virginia this weekend - road trip!

12. My parents are going to the King Tut exhibit in Ft. Lauderdale, and I don’t get to go cause I have to stay up here and go to class. Waaaaaaaah!

13. This has been a pretty random TT, but I’m in a random mood, LOL! Hope you all have a great day!
