it's very possible that i had the world's best hamburger and fries yesterday. i went to meet carrie and aimee in palm beach gardens for lunch and we went to this place called "Five Guys." i had never heard of it but apparently it's a chain and they have them in cincinatti, st. louis and a bunch of other places. oh. my. gosh. it was unbelieveably good. if you ever have the chance to go there, go. carrie is one of my old roomates from college...she, aimee and lived together when we were at UF. it's so great because the three of us, no matter how long we haven't seen each other, it always feels like we just saw each other the day before . that is a good feeling!

so how's this for saving something for the last minute? i need to turn in my 2008 benefits to work by monday...i have so much stuff to look at and havent even started. how long have i known that my benefits were due on december 31st? ah, since about september. apparently, three months notice is not enough notice for me! maybe my new years resloution will be to stop putting stuff off that i hate doing for the last minute...

i think i may have found a basketball league to join in january! it's actually a men's league but you all know i can play with the boys...and i'll probably be better than a lot of them too! i have to check and see what times the games are at though because if they're at like 5 pm, it's not gonna work. there's a friend of mine at work, courtney, who played in college too and she plays in a women's league that starts in the spring...i definitely want to play with them, but the only problem is i thinik the games might be played about a half hour from where i live. ill have to see how many games there are and at what time. i havent played a game in more than 4 months (the wednesday night game!:)...i miss it!

today is my last full day in florida :( plane's at 10:30 tomorrow morning out of ft lauderdale...and it's back to the news on monday! cant wait to see what kind of dying, death and destruction stories will be awaiting me when i get back (lol just kidding...we dont have a lot of those in raleigh, thankfully!)
