I wanted to post about school separately, because most of you got the email I sent out about school. This way, if you want, you can skip to the juicy stuff! ;^)
Matt and I will have been dating for a year February 15. Our anniversary would have actually been Valentine's Day, but I didn't see him that day because of his work schedule, and I wanted to tell him I'd fallen in love with him in person. Matt is planning our anniversary celebration, I have no idea what he has in mind. I have a few ideas of my own, though. I've never been with a boyfriend long enough to actually have an anniversary. It's a nice feeling.
Matt and I have agreed to move in together. We'll probably be doing it in the beginning of April. I think I'll set it up so that I'm officially "out" of my apartment at the end of that month, so that way I have plenty of time to clean the place up from 3 years of being lived-in and get settled into our new home. We're apartment hunting right now, but we'll probably end up moving into a larger apartment in Matt's current complex. It's a nice place, not too far from where I live now. We're still working on details. And I haven't told my parents yet. They didn't seem too thrilled with the concept the first time I told them that Matt and I had discussed it and didn't work out. I'm hoping that it'll go over ok, especially since Matt and I have actually been dating for awhile now, and have known each other for a long time.
I've been setting my parents up for the idea as best as I can. I've mentioned that our relationship is getting serious, and he's been coming with me to as much family stuff as he possibly can. But something happened this past weekend that not only makes me feel really good about our relationship, but will also help to ease my parents' old-fashioned minds. We were out with a group of friends to dinner, and told them about our move-in plans. Our friend Lisa asked if we were going to get married. We answered the question at the same time, but with 2 different answers. I said "we haven't really talked about it", and Matt said "absolutely". We both looked at each other with the same "what are you talking about?" look. I think Mom and Dad are just worried that Matt is getting out of "buying the cow" so to speak. If I tell them this, at least that'll help to show that we're both going into this with future intentions in mind.
In other work news, I caught wind of a reliable rumor that my company's contract isn't being renewed with our hospital system, and that we'll be gone come April something. I haven't heard anything from my company's standpoint, so I'm just kinda hangin' out and hoping it's not true. We were told the new contract had already been signed, etc. Send me some happy job mojo!
Having a very slow day at work, hence the 2 posts. But you all needed some reading material anyway, didn't you? See, that's what I thought.
