work, father's day, sonogram

i'm sorry about the mushiness of my last post... luke doesn't even read my blog, so i like to gush about him a little every now and then. today i watched the movie P.S. I Love You that we had gotten from blockbuster a few days ago and if you want to feel more appreciative of the time you share with your spouse, then watch it, but as a warning i will say it made me cry a few times (maybe that was just the hormones).

well i'm done with my 2 weeks of training at work and ended up being the first (out of 40 in the training) to pass the 3 tests we were required to take at the end of it. i finished nearly a half hour before the next person in my class finished (they gave 3 chances to pass each test, so some people had to go back and make corrections), so since i got done early, i had time to set up my cubicle (oh so exciting..) and then my supervisor wouldn't let me do anything! she made me listen to other people taking calls, which might be the most boring thing ever. it also didn't help that the people i sat with kept giving wrong information or giving out information we've been told not to give. one girl had colored pencils and paper, so while i listened to calls, i drew a picture for luke. tomorrow i start my regular schedule and i really hope she lets me just get on the phone. that would make the time go by much faster.

for father's day, we got together at my sister lori's house and just played games and had snacks. luke and i pre-ordered season one of the old get smart show (from 1965) for my dad because it was one of his very favorite shows and i'd watch it on nick at nite with him when i was younger. in casual conversation tonight he actually brought up that he had looked up buying the whole series and it costs at least $200 if not more, so he laughed when he found out what we got him. i don't think the movie will be anything compared to the show, but steve carrell can be pretty funny, so we'll see.

i can't believe we have our sonogram in less than 2 weeks (6/27)! i really hope they'll be able to tell whether it's a boy or girl... i just think we'll be able to get to know the little one a little better once we know the gender and can really think concretely about names and planning.

this has just been a ramble blog and i could write much more, but i'll save it for when i'm not so sleepy.
