Organized Chaos: Randoms, and Blog Awards

Okay first things first.

1. Kidney stones.

Yes that is a random topic but I have them and they suck.

I got kidney stones for the first time when I was in high school. I had to have Lithotripsy (aka laser surgery) to have them removed when I was a senior in high school. Basically my Dr. told me that I would be prone to get them for the rest of my life.

Lovely. Great.

Anywho, last week I started to feel pain on my lower back left. I ignored it and decided to go out on Friday night...and let me tell you that was a HUGE mistake. Kidney stones are nothing to be messed with. And worst part about it is there really isn't anything you can do to get rid of them.

All I have to say is that they better be gone by Thursday.

2. Thursday.

I will be headed to one of my favorite places ever.

Chicago!!

I was supposed to go a couple weekends ago for a job interview but my flight got cancelled because of snow. So now I am finally getting the opportunity to go visit my friends and I am conflicted as to whether I should reschedule the interview. I don't think it would really be an interview anymore and is now more of a "meeting". I just don't know if it's worth it. Thoughts?

3. Blog awards.

The adorable Bunnie over at My Life Comes with Fine Print gave me The Versatile Blogger Award.

So, here are rules for this award:

1. Thank the person that nominated you, and give them a shout out on your blog with a link to theirs.

2. Share 7 random facts about yourself.

3. Send on the award to 15 other bloggers whose blog you love and appreciate and then let them know they won the award.

1. I am a clean freak when it comes to my house...except my room. For some reason I cannot manage to keep clothes off the floor.

2. My friends from college all call me Pants...no one really knows why.

3. I have sleeping problems. It is almost guaranteed that I will be up between the hours of 3 and 5:30.

4. I also do weird things when I'm awake in the middle of the night. Last year at 5 in the morning I went and asked my dad where my W2's were so I could file my taxes. He was not amused. I've also been known to watch full length movies or bake cookies at this time.

5. I could watch the Big Bang Theory or Grey's Anatomy all day everyday.

6. I love makeup and buy way too much of it. But I hardly ever (aka never) switch up my routine. I use the same makeup every single day.

7. I absolutely cannot wait until the day that I have my own classroom!

It says to give this award to 15 blogs, but I'm going to cheat and give it to all of the blogs I follow and all those who follow me. I am so appreciative of the blog friends I have made!

Next, Laura at Life of Lu nominated me for the Liebster Award.
