I love early premiers

This is a couple of days late, but I haven't had time to post about it in the last couple days because of school.

HUNGER GAMES : CATCHING FIRE WAS AWESOME! It was SO true to the book. I want to go back and see it again!


Also, happy half-birthday to Bry and quarter-birthday to me two days ago when we went to see this- Nov. 20!

Feeling great!

Even though I woke up not wanting to get out of bed, today has turned out to be a great day.

Here are some of the reasons why:
1. I found out this morning that Bry and I will be seeing Catching Fire in theaters at 7:45pm on WEDNESDAY. Boo-yah. (Yes, I know you're jealous. No, I can't buy you a ticket.)
2. I'm getting a new set of glasses for the first time in over 6 years this week and they are beautiful.
3. We went to Papa Murphey's tonight to grab a Hawaiian pizza and got a family-size for the price of a large because someone ordered it and then called back after it was already made to say they changed their mind.
4. It was sunny and warm enough to wear flip flops.
5. When I got hungry at work I was able to eat my favorite granola bar which my supervisor happened to give me last Friday and that I'd left on my desk.
6. One of my professors informed the class that he decided to cancel class next Monday, so now I only have ONE class next week.
7. Only 8 days left until Bry and I leave to Portland for Thanksgiving break.
8. Only a month and a day until Bry and I go to my house for Christmas.
9. Bry brought home free hand soap he got at work randomly, as well as a Lindor truffle, and this cutie:

I GOT 'em

Mwahahahahaha. Months of planning (not really- more like it has been planned for months- it didn't actually take that long to plan) finally succeeded. The months of being paranoid that my plan would be discovered or I'd slip up. The stress that occasionally kept me up late at night with fear that something would go wrong- they'd find out or figure it out or my transportation would be delayed or unorganized.

But today it ALL came together. Here's how it went:

1. Bry dropped me off at the Provo airport which was very small and slightly confusing, but sort of fun because of how small it was.
2. Ariana and her dad picked me up from the Oakland airport.
3. I walked through the court behind Becca and Isaac's house while I called her and asked her to check for a package on her front porch.
4. She sent Aiden to check the front door and he answered it to find me! I said "hello Aiden" over the phone and then hung up and heard Becca in the house say "what!" Aiden's face was totally expressionless when he answered the door because he came looking for a box and I wasn't a box, so he ran in with me and told Becca "no box, just Auntie!" Perfect, kid. Thank you. =)
5. When I saw Becca I declared "happy birthday!"

Meanhile, mom was upstairs having heard my voice while painting (and realizing it was NOT on speaker phone) and was practically cursing me for coming while she was working on painting a door and messing up her mojo. hahaha. How was I supposed to know?

It's going to be a great, but short weekend. I hope to enjoy what I can of it, though. =)
