Death of the pink room and other life events

The pink room is no more. This is a sad day indeed. Technically, I suppose it still is the pink room, as the walls remain hot pink, but it is now completely void of furniture, and will never return to its former glory. Perhaps i should explain. Tomorrow we are having all of the carpet in our house cleaned. (Hooray!) In order to allow for the most thorough of cleanings, we moved all of the furniture from the room into the kitchen. However, after the carpet is done, we will not be moving any furniture back into the pink room. We had a couple of contractors out today to look at things and make some estimates about turning that room into another bedroom. If all goes according to plan, by the end of the summer the pink room will be inhabited by one of our yet-to-be-discovered new roommates. I suppose this is a good decision that will ultimate make the house more marketable and desireable, but I will always mourn the loss of the pink room.

In other news, I am proud to admit that I stayed in my pajamas all day today!! I wasn't entirely lazy, as you may have gathered from the previous paragraph, but staying in my pj's definitely made me feel that way.

In case anyone was wondering, the concert last weekend was fantastic! As it turns out, Sara Evans wasn't there, we only got to see the very end of Taylor Swift's (very short) show, and we got rained on for a good hour or more, but all in all I'd have to say my first concert experience was a definite success. By the time Kenny Chesney took the stage, the rain had stopped and the stadium was packed. Everyone was on their feet the entire time, and there was much screaming and clapping and singing along to some fabulous music. I think I might be hooked. :) And of course I had the best date ever, which made the whole experience even better. I love him!!

Last night Julie and I went to see the movie Waitress. I had never heard of this movie before, but I definitely enjoyed it. Gotta love indie comedies that feature Andy Griffith!! There were a few aspects of the story line that could have been better, but the dialogue and the acting were absolutely hilarious. The whole experience was made even better by the fact that Julie and I were the only 2 people in the theater, so we were free to laugh and giggle as loudly and frequently as we pleased without fear of nasty stares. I only feel badly for the poor movie theater employee who was forced to keep the place open just for us. Maybe he was at least entertained by our peals of squeaky laughter.
