Night off

My goal tonight was to go shopping after work then come home and clean. Not everything went exactly as planned.

I printed a few Groupons before leaving work and remembered to grab my gift certificates before I left home this morning. On my way home from work, I stopped at the running store in a HUGE shopping plaza. I had 2 $50 groupons plus a $25 gift certificate to use up. I bought a new pair of running sneakers that I LOVE and 5 pairs of running socks.

I absolutely LOVE the new running sneakers. They are the newer model of the same ones I was already wearing but a 1/2 size bigger too. They just feel so amazing on my feet. I did try out a few other pairs of sneakers but none felt this good. They were even better than the model that I currently have. I LOVE them. If it wasn't pouring out right now, I'd be outside trying them on.

Then my plan was to walk down to Old Navy and use that Groupon too. Um, yeah, the heavens had opened by the time I left the running store, without a jacket. And my bad... NO OLD NAVY IN THE PLAZA!!! I was drenched! Old Navy is in ANOTHER plaza in the same town but about 15 minutes away.

By then, I was soaked through and had enough. I didn't go to Marshall's to use that gift certificate and I still have the Old Navy groupon too. At least I got the sneakers.

Then I got home and I was starving... A bowl of cereal and some pretzels and I'm good. Cleaning? No. I even had an idea to bake... make the banana bread I made before that was amazing. Nope. On the sofa, online. I registered for another 5K in August... the Tavern to Tavern 5K from Tavern in the Square (Central Square) to Tavern in the Square (Porter Square) in Cambridge. Free Tshirt and Pint Glass too! Should be a blast! Plus its early... 9am start time, so heat-wise, it should be ok.

I was already planning on taking the night off from seeing the new guy. I have spent 4 out of the past 5 nights at his place! I slept home on Monday night. That was it! And this morning he asked me if I was coming over tonight. I need a night off off to chill at home. My poor cats hate me right now!

But otherwise, things with him are going REALLY well. Last night was fun when we went out to watch the Bruins game and just hanging out and talking. He would kill me for saying this, but he is such a sweet guy! Go figure, he's working out at a fight gym tonight... LOL! But he is! He's sweet and kind. I have fun with him and I feel really comfortable with him. Things I haven't said to anyone, I have already said to him. He makes it easy.

Even last night... I told him I wasn't looking for this or for anything and I wasn't expecting this. But its nice. And I know he likes it too. Weird cuz it just sort of happened. I was kind of fighting it but here I am and I basically have a boyfriend and I'm in a serious, exclusive relationship with him. And I'm still not sure how that happened. And I can't wait to see him tomorrow night.

That's about all I have that I'm sharing right now. I have more... other things on my mind, things I'm worried about but not what I want to share here. Funny, but new guy is one of the only people I shared some of those things with. I guess that says something.
