Ramdom stuff....
Today is my birthday. The big 3-3. Not that big a deal as far as bithdays go. The next BIG birthday I'll have will be... uh... no I'm not going to think about that. Anyway, it's my birthday. I googled the phrase "33 year old," to see what other 33 year olds are doing out there, and the sense I get is that everyone is really.... grown up.
And speaking of growing up, I am officially and completely NO LONGER A STUDENT. Well, my title at work is articling student, but I now hold a job and get paid. About 2 weeks ago I got the letter saying I passed the bar, so worries in that department are o-v-e-r.
Aaaaaaaand I moved this weekend. Now I live in Abbotsford. Yeah, Abbotsford. Not Vancouver, but Abbotsford. Interesting. It's going to be an adjustment. Hmm.... that's such an automatic thing to say. "It's going to be an adjustment." People have said that to me so much, I'm basically just repeating it now everytime I tell someone I moved here. "I moved to Abbotsford. It's going to be an adjustment."
I really am going to miss the city. I mean, I really, really am going to miss the city. But, there are advantages to living out here too. Less traffic. Short commute to work. A wayyy nice place for less rent. In suite washer/dryer. Dishwasher. Big on Burgers.
Speaking of Big on Burgers, if you live anywhere NEAR Abbotsford and eat meat, you should check out Big on Burgers. It's on South Fraser Way in Clearbrook and they make what are probably the best burgers I've ever had. Seriously, they do. You'll have to wait a couple minutes because they make them fresh when you order, but it's worth it.
And speaking of hamburgers, I need to get my ass to the gym. It's been a long time. I've been trying to do some running, but that's my only exercise lately. It pretty much blows, because I'm feeling like a big ol' slug these days. I think I should make some birthday resolutions to motivate myself. I want to do something big this year, in the physical/athletic sense. Any ideas? Does anybody still read this blog?
Okay I have to get out of bed. I have an apartment full of stuff we randomly threw in here yesterday... good times.
