Today, I predict, is going to rock. Yes, my head is killing me (still) but migraines are ordinary around these parts (seeing colors when the dog barks and the sound reverberates through the piano -- fun, ordinary stuff).
However, two things make today unusual.
1. I'm getting a new iPod! Matthew's federal agency is the friendly federal agency (unlike his last federal agency, which is better known for employee shootings). They give each other awards all the time, and the awards are redeemable for gift certificates and coupons. Usually he picks Fred Meyer cards, and we use them for groceries. However, this time decided to cash his in and get me a new 30 gig iPod. This is exciting for me, because iPods are 5th generation now and my 20 gig iPod is 2nd. This is great for Matthew, because he gets my 20 gig iPod. (His died, and I fixed it, but we're not sure how long it will last.) Finally, I will have an iPod big enough to house my music collection (around 26 gigs currently).
2. I'm going to my first live hockey game! Matthew and our friend Alesia and I have center ice tickets to the Winterhawks' opening season game. I've been looking forward to this since the end of the Stanley Cup.
I did something completely out of character for the post-law school me, too -- I made a real breakfast, including pancakes made from whole wheat and oat flour. It's been years since I made pancakes, though it used to be an every Saturday sort of thing.
