things I am excited about

my last week at Starbucks is here. It's kinda weird to think about. I am going to miss the people I get to see everyday (even though I know I'll see them around town) and I am going to miss the discount that I get...like Lisa said, paying full price is gonna hurt. But I figure that will go into my monthly budget. I just gotta stay positive and optimistic when I am opening four days in a row this week, that the money I make from it is allowing me to go to the Austin City Limits Music Festival! Holy freakin' moly. I had a good time at Lollapalooza last year, but the fact that I get to go with Ross (and his bro Grant) and that I'll get to stay for the entire thing and not be by myself the entire time (me alone in Chicago...not the best combination last year=Þ) is going to be so much fun. And look at the lineup! I can't wait! I'm also excited about the LayFlats Art Festival here in town. I think I have to work that day, but am going to see about switching around or something. Lots of good music, for sure!

Also excited about Guitar Hero III, slated for this fall. Which finally has a Weezer song in it=) and I just heard about Guitar Hero Encore: Rock the 8os.

And last, but definitely not least. I ran into Heather down at Kathy's Kandies and we were talking about the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and the fundraising from last fall, and I asked her how Dustin was doing (the boy we were raising money for) and she said he just had his last official treatment and he's officially a cancer survivor. Isn't that so awesome?! I got chills when she told me and tears started forming. So yay for Dustin!

Anywho, I need to get ready for sleeping. It's already almost 11 p.m. and I want to read another chapter of the book I am reading.

much love!
