The beginning..or the present..

Today is Friday. Apparently blogging is the new black and after enough requests, I have acquiesced. Allow me to update you...

I am currently engaged to the most amazing man in the whole world. I am not Marie Bordelon yet, but in less than 2 months I will be. He is perfect for me, and I can't imagine spending the rest of my life with anyone but him.

Together we adopted an adorable 5 month old Jack Russell Poodle mix. Her name is Nikole but I call her my little Nikki. Her recent achievements include opening the lock on her dog run by herself as well as using the doggy door to go to the potty. She is very smart and very determined but also very sweet and very affectionate. Well, to me anyway. She loves her momie and her momie loves her. I will undoubtedly have more to say about her in the future.

I work at CCSD as a Drafter. Recently I was unoficially promoted to Senior CAD Technician, taking a position above all others that I work with aside from my direct supervisor. I have only been employed by the district since June 2007. I am the only girl and also the youngest person in my department. Due to professionalism I won't go into much detail or my opinion on the reactions that I have received since this announcement, but I will paraphrase with this. Everyone (perhaps not everyone exactly but mostly) thought I was given the postion unjustly because they themselves should have had it. I love my new duties far more than the previous.

Michael and I recentlyjoined a gym. Las Vegas Athletic club. It is so awesome. We have trainers, and towel service and raquetball memberships and I am just so excited to have so much at my fingertips. Hopefully we will be able to fit it in with everything.

Wedding planning is going well, the invitations are in progress as I decided the only way to get what I wanted was to make it myself. Some aspects are perfect, others I would try to do differently if it were possible. Things left to be completed include flowers and decorations, music playlist, tuxedos and other minor details. I am mostly very excited about picking up my wedding dress on monday!

Breaking Dawn comes out tomorrow, so I am planning to go to Wal-Mart at midnight and getting my copy! Yay!

Now you have been moderately updated. This is my boring but wonderful life. I am planning to post pictures of everything in the coming weeks.
