Unfortunate and Fortunate.

{ sweater/belt/bracelet/necklace: F21; button-up/wedges: Old Navy; watch: Nordstrom; jeans: The Loft }


{Unfortunate}
1. Running out of deodorant on Monday, smelling like a boy for the rest of the week, thanks to hubby's manly deodorant.
2. Dear Gluten, you make my stomach feel like someone's stabbing me... I don't appreciate it very much. Please stop. I didn't like abruptly leaving class on Monday, due to those feelings of death. You suck. Stop sneaking your way into my body through miniscule crumbs---It's not cool. Thanks. Love, your favorite celiac girl.
3. Missing Parenthood this week. Enough said.
4. Midterms are next week, and due to a little thing called Senioritis, I have ZERO motivation to study. Absolutely zilch.
5. Not having anytime with hubby. This week was full of eating dinner by myself. I miss sitting on our couch, eating on our coffee table {because our dining room table is where our laptops go these days}, and watching reruns of Arrested Development. The best. I miss you, hubby. Praise the Lord for weekends!
6. When I get nervous, I bake. This week, well, I baked a lot. 


{Fortunate}
1. The beginning of fall in Corvallis. The OSU campus in the fall is absolutely gorgeous. Bold oranges, golds, reds, and yellows everywhere.
2. My best friend, Alex coming to support me on Tuesday night. Not only that, but she brought me a pumpkin spice latte to encourage me. Man, I'm thankful for friends like her. Friends that know exactly what you need, and friends who are always there for you. She's so great.
3. Walking to class with the hubby every day this week. It's the little things. Ya know?
4. This weekend! Number 4 deserves an a,b,&c.
a. My two best friends, Alex & Kelsey are coming into town on Saturday to celebrate our birthdays. They are those friends that make you breathe a little sigh of relief every time you're around them, because you know they only want you to be yourself. Those two know me so well, I can't wait to be with them for a few hours.
b. Saturday night, hubs and I are headed to Salem to go out to dinner with my wonderful in-laws {Outback Steakhouse sweet potatoes, here I come}!
c. Sunday, husband is taking me on a birthday-day date {my birthday is really not until Tuesday, but our Tuesdays are too packed to celebrate}. I'm SO excited. Not because it's my birthday necessarily, but because I get to steal a whole day with my mister.


What are your unfortunates and fortunates this week?
Next week, I'll have a "Link Up" for those who want to share on their blog! You know you want to.
