WiiFit - We preordered the game about a month back, and now we’ve got our very own! While Handsome isn’t so fond of it (it puts his Fit Age about 10 years above his real age), I think it’s a fun way to get a little exercise. I love the skiing games and haven’t yet tried everything else, but I’m sure I’ll love it too. I have to mention though that if you get offended pretty easily, this game is not for you. It definitely makes you feel bad at times, even if you’re staying on track and working out everyday. But as long as you’re realistic and watch the graphs, you’ll be fine. I love it, but just a warning.
My New Apt – Haven’t moved in yet (not until beginning of August) but it is right in the center of Manhattan and is bigger than any apartment I’ve ever had in the city. Plus, we were able to negotiate our rent to exactly our max possible, down $150 from what they were originally asking.
GPS – I just got a GPS system from Amazon.com and I love Love LOVE it. I won a $200 gift card from Amazon during a work promotion and then went all out and got the $400 GPS system, so I still ended up spending $200…but SO WORTH IT.
Three-Day Weekends – Not that I work Monday to Friday, but it is nice that bar review takes a short hiatus. (Which reminds me: Hating…bar review.)
The Local Fruit Market – They are sooo cheap and also have most vegetables and fruits…even things I can’t find any my local supermarket. Even things I would normally think I would be able to get at my local grocery store…like zuchinni. Yea, my local grocery store doesn’t have zuchinni. What’s that about?
The Weather – The pool at our building opened today. How anyone made it into that water is beyond me, but yah for summer!! The weather’s been in the 70s (after tons and tons and tons of rain for the past few weeks) and it’s been absolutely beautiful. It’s still a little cool at night, which I LOVE because it means that we can just leave our windows open at night.
Graduation Gifts – So, beyond tons of money (thanks family), I also received some other great gifts.
From the (real)-dad, a beautiful diamond necklace:
From Handsome’s Family, a Bulova watch that was a little small and needs another link, so it’s currently at their main office. But, here’s a picture (and don’t miss the 26 diamonds):
Two fabulous crystal Baccarat champagne flutes that my aunt bought while in France. While not exactly the same, they look something like this (as do most champagne flutes I would guess) but only a little thicker throughout the stem:
And, not yet received but promised when the new one comes out, an iPhone from my mom and (step)-dad:
So, what are you loving right about now??
Personally, I’m loving my new, shorter, lighter, hairdo. And seconding your love of three day weekends and the weather! Detroit is sunny and 70!
