Two years

I don't know where all of the time has gone since I last wrote! Sometimes I have a free minute at lunch to jot down some thoughts, but not this week. As of Monday, my sweet husband and I have been married for 2 years. We reminisced this weekend about the past year and how it has flown by. That's one of the engagement pictures that we took in the Spring of 2004. Love you, Honey Bunny! Let's have a great year three.

Well, as you all may know, I turned the big 3-0 this weekend. I spend my 30th birthday exactly the way I wanted to - at the lake house with my man and my dogs. It's so relaxing out there. I could sit on the porch and stare out at the lake forever. I took a book of Sudoku out there and I think Lee is hooked now too. We watched an excellent Woody Allen movie called "Match Point". I don't usually like his stuff, but this wasn't his normal comedy thing.

We drove back on Sunday to celebrate my mom's birthday. For those of you that don't know, I was born on her birthday. What a great gift, right?!! Mom and Dad came over to the house and we went to Patrizio. It was a nice birthday celebration.

I just got my score from the PE exam and I found out that I got an 80. Passing is a 70. Considering about only 55% of people who take the exam pass it, I'm pretty happy with myself. That means I either really knew my stuff or guessing "B" was a good strategy. I think it would have been higher if I wasn't structurally engineering inept. That's the best thing about this exam being over - I never have to see another truss or beam again. EVER. Structural Engineering is my arch nemesis. To give you an analogy, kryptonite is to Superman as Structural Engineering is to Tiffany. Anyway, all of this lead to a feel-good moment at last Tuesday. A lady at the gym asked me what I did for a living and I told her I was an engineer and for the first time I really felt like one. It's been nice. And that's all I have to say about that.
