My shoulders and back are killing me from last night. I had work until really late and I was busy since the time I walked in to the time I left. I actually didn't finish all my side work (setting tables, polishing silverware, etc) and will be going in early today to do it. The other waitress and I were so exhausted and in pain last night that we just couldn't stay till past 11 to finish it all.
I think I'm so sore from the back to back fencing tournaments I had last weekend that I don't think I have fully recovered from. Also the fact that the shoes I wear to work are not ideal for it. They are very old Pumas whose rubber soles have been worn smooth and don't offer a ton of cushion anymore. I saw these shoes online the other day through a link on a forum and they look like just what I need and are not that expensive too! Shoesforcrews.com looks like a great place to get some new shoes that are appropriate for work. I'm really partial to these ones because they look like Sketchers and not granny shoes. I've never bought shoes online before, but I'm willing to give it a shot because I really need them for work.
For this blog, I have a few topics I have written down that I wanted to talk about, so you might see a few posts in a row. I'm going to try to keep my posts short because they shouldn't be really, really long, just to the point. But with this post, I guess I'm not starting off the way I wanted, sorry!
The title of this post refers to my love of personalized ringers for my phone. I use myxer.com to upload songs I have and make them into ringtones. For my boyfriend (I'm still thinking of a name for him on this blog), my first song I used was "Love Will Come Through" by Travis and I used it for a long time and still love it. Then when I found this myxer website, I decided to change things up a bit. So my first one I used was "Phenomena" by The Yeah Yeah Yeahs (the only video that I could find without it being played live). I used it for a bit, but I really liked how the first one was not so energetic, but almost like a lullaby. So I decided to use one of my other favorite songs, "Lucky" by Jason Mraz. This one fits way better and it has a lot of meaning for me.
What I really love the most about using personalized ringtones is when I hear that specific one for him, I KNOW it's HIM and I get really excited. It's a reminder that he is thinking about me and wants to know how I am doing. It's a daily gift I treasure because I know that in the future I won't be receiving daily phone calls or be able to call back if I miss one.
Do you have a specific ringtone for your loved one and if so, what is it?
