When I Get Out of Here...

I find that during exam week, I begin thinking and acting like a felon who is only days away from being granted parole after a 25 year stent in the big house. Although finding distraction has never been my weakness, this week I seem to plan for all the fun things I'm going to do once I'm free. So far here's the list, in no particular order.

1. Have a wine and cheese night, even if its just me.
2. Make a killer Halloween costume.
3. Clean my house. Fold laundry. Rake my backyard. (But that's probably just crazy talk.)
4. Give the dog a bath.
5. Invite friends over for dinner and a movie... Transformers anyone?
6. See my sister, finally get to tell my brother-in-law happy birthday.
7. Learn to make the world's best cheesecake.
8. Read a book for pleasure.
9. Go on a trip. Maybe New Orleans. Maybe New York.
10. Have a lazy movie day.

Yeah, this is just a beginning of all the things I want to do once I can honestly leave my "command center" without guilt. My guess is maybe half of those things will get done. But, a girl's gotta dream.
