Where Dani writes about… just about everything!
I’m not sure when I’ll be getting married or sifting through Wedding Dresses to find the one that I want to walk down the aisle in, to tell you guys the honest truth. Secondly, I’m not even sure if I ever want to walk down an aisle of any sort… I would much rather a nice, small and quick wedding, if anything. Even though I’m currently pregnant with my second child, the idea of marriage has always made me feel a tad bit nervous. I’m not sure what, if anything, has caused me to feel so nervous when it comes to such things as “lifelong” and “marriage”, but something certainly has. It’s still not set in stone that I will ever give up my last name, simply because I would much rather not go through the hassle of having to change my last name on every single piece of identifying information that has to do with me. Even if I do get married, and my boyfriend’s son or daughter inherits his last name rather than mine, I’m not sure if I’ll give up my surname.
However, my boyfriend has propositioned to me the idea of getting married after this child is born and he’s started work. I haven’t yet managed to jump out of my skin and hit the ceiling head-first, which is a really good sign! Since he’s set to graduate with his associate’s degree in biology this coming Spring and walk this summer, he’s been looking for jobs that he can now get with a degree of some sort and has been pleasantly surprised to find that there are a lot of jobs around this area for someone with an associates’ degree in biology.
In my spare time, I’ve been looking at the wedding dresses that LightInTheBox.Com has. Quite frankly, I like a lot of them. However, it’s still up in the air as to when the actual wedding date will be! I’ll keep you posted.
If everything goes well, I should be seeing New Moon with Matt today. Supposing that the tickets for it haven’t been sold out for months in advance, this should be a fun adventure! Surprisingly enough, New Moon used to be my least favorite book in the series because I was sold on Edward and Bella’s love… but now that I’ve read the entire series, I’ve found myself liking Jacob more and more as a character and not quite skimming over the actions of the wolf pack quite so much. Ironically enough, the high school that I graduated from had the mascot “Grey Wolves”.
Had I been attending high school for a year longer, though, I wouldn’t have graduated from there. Because so many students were attending it, they had to re-zone some of the areas in this city to offset the fact that my old high school was one of the largest high schools in the city. I would have graduated from the school whose mascot were the Eagle if that had been the case, but since I graduated in 2004, I managed to avoid the TAKS test… and that.
For anyone who might be confused, all classes before 2005 sat for the TAAS.
Since I take my laptop with me to school and use it to do a lot of my class assignments, making sure that my data is well-protected has always been extremely important to me. In my spare time, I’ve been learning some about how you can Exchange backup protection as well. I suppose that I’ll know more about computers and servers once I’ve taken my required computer science-based elective up at school, which I intend on taking sometime next semester before I have my second child…
I saved this shirt of my son’s, and I’m thinking about giving it to his younger brother or sister when he or she is old enough to wear it. I always thought that it was pretty because it brought out his green eyes, and he seemed to enjoy wearing the shirt. He or she might not be able to wear it for awhile, but wouldn’t the idea or thought of it be touching? Also included, a sarcastic onesie.
