What I'm Loving Wednesday

Happy Wednesday, bloggie friends!  Since today's Wednesday, you know that means I'm linking up with Jamie at this kind of love for What I'm Loving Wednesday!

This Wednesday, I'm particularly loving that I'm on summer vacation!!! Monday I went back to my old school (they hadn't finished yet) to visit my coworkers, friends and kids there, which was really nice to see (I can't believe that the graduating 6th graders were 3rd graders when I started there!!) Yesterday was spent doing some cleaning of my apartment, sorting through old magazines I just hadn't gotten around to reading yet, reading my book, catching up on some daytime television, and taking Cooper for a long walk. Not a bad way to spend the first official day of summer!

On that note, I'm loving that Cooper has let me sleep in the last couple of days on my first days off. It's been mega nice to wake up on my own rather than to dog whimpers or an alarm clock.

I'm loving that I get to spend the day with my roommate before she leaves tomorrow morning to move back home to be with her family. I anticipate some of the day will be spent packing her things, but we have a roomie dinner planned to our favorite sushi place around here, and it'll be nice to spend a "last" day together as roommates. I'm not loving that she's leaving, but I AM loving that she's doing what makes her happy. Gonna miss you more than words can explain, Genna!

I'm loving that I'm in the process of booking a plane ticket to see one of my besties in Houston for a couple of weeks from now. I haven't been down to see where she lives since she moved down there, so this is the perfect opportunity. Perhaps not the smartest idea to go to Texas in the middle of summer, but my girl is worth it and I miss her to pieces.

Thinking this dress with red wedges...

I'm loving that I'm going on a date on Friday, complete with cute guy (my old roommate set us up), asking a week in advance about plans (omg, some boys actually still do that?!?!), saying he wanted to take me somewhere really nice for a night out. I think I already know what I'm going to wear, but might have to go through my closet and tear it apart, just to make sure what I have in mind is right (I'm such a girl). We've hung out a few times and he's really nice, so I'm definitely looking forward to it!



I'm sure there are some other things that I'm loving but I can't think of them right now since my stomach is rumbling for me to get off my lazy butt and make myself some breakfast! Hope you all are having great Wednesdays!
