It's Okay Thursday

It's ok...

... to be sad that Christmas is really, truly over.  How many more days until Christmas again?

... to bond with new cubemates over Diet Coke.

... to make plans to see the  Beauty and the Beast 3D rerelease when it opens in theaters next week.

... to eat sandwich wraps for dinner three nights in a row.

... to hide my Hunger Games book until I have the second book on hand to start immediately after.

... to wear my work badge on a lanyard around my neck.  I've misplaced way too many things lately!

... to not make resolutions for the new year.  Resolutions and goals can be made any day, any time.

... to get excited over snail mail, even if it's just from my local congresswoman.

... to be a little sad that Martha Stewart's daytime talk show is coming to an end.

... to think about the amount of time the new CA law banning the sale of alcohol in self checkout lanes at supermarkets would have cost us in college.

... to try something new, like linking up.  Thanks Amber and Neely!

PS: It's ok to eat pickles for snack.  Especially considering Jersey Shore returns tonight.
