Today wasn't too bad. We got to the funeral home like five minutes before there was flash flooding so that was good.

Then we heading out with Jeremy's mom to Olive garden for an early dinner.

And now, for your enjoyment, pictures:

Today at work wasn't too bad. I stayed busy. Tomorrow, I have to leave early to go with Jeremy for a memorial service only open to the family. I wish the week was longer so that I would have time to catch up on hours.

Because on Friday, I'm helping out with handing out books to the PY1 students and I don't know when I'll be done with that. I wasn't going to do it at all, but the Stephanie called who's head of the book committee begging for people to help out. So, I'll squeeze in 40 hours somewhere. I worked from 7:15 to 5 today, so that's some hours there. I'm thinking that Thursday and Friday will be long days. Joy, oh joy.

We took the doggies to the dog park. But after being there, this ugly horrible person came in who kept their dog on a leash for some odd reason even when they were in the fence. Come to find out it was for a good reason. The 2nd she let it off, the dog went after this other dog and literally was biting and knawing on its head while the poor thing was pinned to the ground. I had twinkie in my lap and Jeremy was down by the gate with the other dog and that idiot woman just stood there and didn't even try to pull her dog off. No one else was around and all they could hear was the growling and snarling. So finally the person whose dog was getting attacked came and broke them up and the bitch didn't even say she was sorry or even more sanely, take her dog and leave. She just moved to to a different part of the dog park. After doing my whole talking really loudly about what a horrible person she was so that she could hear me and she selective decided not to hear me, we made sure everyone else knew to keep their dog away from her dog and left. Evil bitch. I hope she gets her pants sued off.

Today was a nice family get together. We grilled out and I had a veggie burger and corn on the cob and cornbread and cucumber salad and veggie baked beans and melon. And the best part: a banana.

I think I got a little sun burnt. On the way home I fell asleep and I could barely get out of the car when we got home. I was really tired. Then when we got home there was a message from jeremy's mom saying there was another death in the family, Jeremy's aunt... the one that is related to the Judd's. She's in Lexington, but I think she is going to be buried in Ashland. She was a rich old fart, but a selfish one at that. I don't think she's going to have a funeral. Something like grave rights or rites or something. I don't know. Jeremy's mom said that she would just be happy getting the old pictures of her mother from her.

so sleepy. I don't want to go to work tomorrow. I'm tired of people dying.

my tummy hurts.

We just got back from seeing the x-men movie. Should I be worried that I was the only girl in the entire theater of a bunch of single men sitting by themselves? little bit weird.

Saturday, May 27, 2006

sorry for the typos... I'm too lazy to go back and change them

Next weekend is going to be crazy. For Jeremy, really crazy. Saturday morning, we're volunteering at the Diabetes Walk in the morning, then Jeremy is heading to the Dave concert in Indy and then he's coming back into town late that night only for us to go out of town again on Sunday. Crazy business. The good news is that on Friday he is working :gasp: a manager's shift for the first time ever, and he won't have to take any functions. Which means... 9 to 5. I don't even know what he is going to do with himself.

Farmer's market this morning before Jermey went into work. WE got cantaloupe, a yellow tomato and a red one. we had tomato sandwiches for lunch. they were good. We also stopped and got the last potter movie and the new Dixie Chicks CD.

I killed this huge cockroach/ stink bug looking thing last night. It was on the sliding patio door and it was one of those him or me kind of deals. I won.

I made no bake cookies with oatmeal and chocolate and peanut butter. They're a tad gooie, but I like them. Finger licking good.

we'll make cornbread and cucumber salad for the cookout on Monday. Mommy, if you get veggie burgers, could you get the kind that are like garden veggie or black bean or somethign. I don't like the veggie burgers that are suppose to taste like meat.

So, I don't want to get a PhD anymore. I was thinking about it, doing a dual degree. But yesterday snipped that idea in the but, after a 30 minute meeting turned into a 5 hour meeting and my legs went numb and I thought about crawling under the table to get out of there but ending up sitting there trying not to let the other 9 people at the round table see me yawn every five secs. The research I'm doing now would have potentially been the research I would want to work in. It is totally like organic lab and I really liked organic lab. No animals, no sterile procedures... just happily making salts. But, the kinetic stuff... I can't handle. Not because I can't learn it or understand it, but because it drives me crazy. Like who gives a flying flip about the rate limiting step of a solid degradation when you put it in hydrogen peroxide. Wooowhooo... I know! NOT ME! and two population systems and if k2 is infitite or not and blah blah blah. so, pharmD for me.... all the way. I was only going to consider the dual degree if I could get out in another 3 years, but I don't think that's possible. They would make me stay for another 4 years. And I want babies and I want to not be poor and having a doctorate and still only making 20 grand for the next four years after that just wouldn't cut it.

Oh well, it was worth I shot.

I finally figured out what was bugging me about the graduate student that I'm working with. He's very anti-American culture. Or as he says it "I don't like to waste my time on things that aren't intellectually." which is fine, whatever floats your boat. But he constantly insults me by speaking about the general population badly. Case in point... he asked me yesterday if I watched American Idol and when I said I did he gave em a lecture on how I was one of those people who follow what pop culture dishes out blindly and blah blah blah. I tried to argue my point that if that were the cause for American Idol, then Kat would have won and Clay or Rubin would have never made it that far and I watched the show because I enjoyed watching people sing that could do it well. It feel on death ears. By the end of the conversation, I literally felt like I was a 14 year girl who listens to Britney Spears who uses that omg, rolradfkadf, u r sooooooooooooooooooooo language and who was planning on getting a job at a tan bed place to save up money to get a boob job.

I should have informed him that turning his computer screen so no one can see and playing hours of a car racing game isn't so much "intellectual" and he maybe should turn in his old navy jeans, possibly go back to India too while he's at it if he's not enjoying the old states that much. I can't stand hypocrites, especially when he finds the need to lecture me on things. ANother example, a chinese girl came down to ask him something and she sort of said it in a weird tone. She leaves, and the guy's like, wow, she's a bitch. And I said something like "yeah, she asked me for something earlier like that and it was sort of awkward." Of course, he gives me a lecture about the different cultures and blah blah blah how when someone comes from a different country you can't read their mannerisms the same way because of culture differences. Here I am sitting there thinking... wait a minute... you just called her a bitch. And I just said it was sort of awkward. And I don't buy it about the culture differences. interactions can still have connonations to them, negative or positive, regardless of lack of language. He even told me not to judge this one lady for being rude to me about some gloves. She basically told me they were her's even though she hadn't even been in the lab for the past week and she needed them more than me and I would have to use the latex gloves even though I'm allergic to latex. anyway, I shouldn't judge her because she's from the south... the south meaning southern Kentucky. Because apparently, I don't understand their culture.
Christy!!!!

Hope you have a good one :)

Birthday................

Thursday, May 25, 2006

Wednesday, May 24, 2006

Today was a long day. I cried twice. Once because the graduate student that I'm working under called me dull. Not dull like boring but dull like unattractive. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt and thinking it was one of those lost in translation things because he's from India, but it still hurt my feelings. Then I cried because I got sprayed in the face with manganese acetate buffer and it got in my face and I was pinching myself to get my eyes to water in the bathroom when i was rinsing them out.

So today sucked. And the grad student kept on telling me to go home. And he played computer games the entire time I was doing work.

But Chris and Lissa are on their way over and we will be having Taco night before the lost finale and American Idol will be taped and Taylor will win :)

I was looking at houses yesterday online just to see how nice we could potential get when I'm done with school. I want a big house with vaulted ceilings and a 2nd livign area on the bottom in case someone needs to stay there (like any old people :)). I wonder if we could ever afford a $500,000 house. That's so much money.

Zippy just threw up. Why do animals eat grass?

I always think of so many things to write about and then i forget them.

Here I am posting on the Internet on my newly repaired Dell. It died and I was really sad but Greg replaced the heart (otherwise known as the power supply) and it works now. I have a new laptop,too. But I'm not going Internet on it, at least not for awhile. I love/hate the Internet. I want once source of data free from the treat of virus, on one hand. On the other, I like stuff like this. So right now I'm having it both ways. Fields and Friends

Everyone should buy the new Dixie Chick CD.

lalalala


Taylor's awesome!

Sunday, May 21, 2006

I know that everyone is dying for an update.

Jeremy had to work really late last night and didn't get home until 5. So we slept late and then went to Lowe's to get stuff for the garden and to replace the faucet in the kitchen so it won't leak anymore.

We bought five new tomato plants at the market finally yesterday. They were only a buck each and they were huge. And they already have blooms on them. They got planted today. Jeremy also has three different types of pepper plants in the garden which makes him happy.

in other news, Perhaps is a murderer. I wrote earlier about how she took out the grape plant. Well, she also took out my squash AND she disemboweled a poor little garden snake yesterday. Although, I'm surprised that the snake lasted as long as it did. I saw that she had something and I went and got the poor little thing and put it underneath the fence and the poor little idiot came back over!

WE got some stuff from Mr. Kabob today and it was good.

no more leaks!

Assholes. F***ing parking Nazis

Monday, May 15, 2006

Little bit anxious tonight. I have to start that research job tomorrow and I'm a little worried about it. You know me... new things and me are like oil and water. I hope that it goes good.

Jeremy is getting his wisdom teeth out on June 26th, I think. I'm trying to convince him that we don't need to fill his prescription for his antibiotic, we can just use the meds left over from Maybe... but he's not biting. Can't figure out why :P

Already, we're not getting two for the meds... the lortab and motrin 600mg. Lortab makes him sick as a dog and he can just take 3 tabs of ibu otc. And if the pain is real bad, 4 tabs. Ah, the joy of being a snot nosed pharmacy student. He has another prescription for an antiinflammatory). I don't know if they sell that by itself over the counter; I do know they sale it in combo with cough syrups. I'll have to investigate.

Mother's day was nice, except for the driving part. Jeremy didn't get off work until 4:30 in the morning and we slept until noon and then hit the road. WE got there and immediately headed out to Kroger to get some cat liter because Zoie hadn't scoped her cat's liter box in what looked and smelled like weeks. Then, Jeremy helped his mom with some computer stuff. Finally, we went out to dinner at old Charlie's. I hadn't been there in forever, but I got a really good steamed veggie plate.

Jeremy and I baked double chocolate chip cookies with pecans and they are super good. I'm making him take in most of them to work so that we won't eat them. I did make these three cookies that are about the size of our heads. They're huge. They'll be really good to eat. For sure a keeper recipe.

Jeremy's already in bed. We just got finished watching the taped finale of Survivor. Jeremy is a big believer that Terry should have won. He has to get up at 4 I think tomorrow. I'm not for sure. Some horrible time.

AHHHH... I'm nervous.

Fields and Friends

Mother's Day I heard from all my girls and Greg. It rained off and on. I had been looking forward to going to the Bats ballgame for a long time and it was dripping rain. John left it up to me and I said let's go. It might stop. It rained most of the way, but when we were almost to the parking lot it STOPPED. Of course, I still wore my rain jacket. One because I didn't want to take a chance on getting wet later and two because it's warm and it was chilly. We got there in time to get free camouflage Bats baseball caps. I even got a white carnation. They started out pretty good and then they seem to have forgotten how to play. They were still tied at the beginning of the seven when it started to rain again. It had already been a long game so I didn't even think about staying for the rain delay. Thanks to the rain jacket I stayed pretty dry. Before we were out of downtown, they started to play again. The announcer said it was really odd. The sun was up over part of the field and it was raining over part of the field and there was a beautiful rainbow. It was neat to hear, but I was glad we were on our way home. We had already been watching baseball over two and a half hours. It was dry once we got past UPS and then when we got to Outer Loop it was soaked. As soon as we turned onto Bost, it was dry again all the way home. I enjoyed the game and I appreciate John giving up going to Meier for his bananas to take me. Fields and Friends

Poison ivy sucks. It's all over my neck now.

Spike TV is awesome.

Take that back... spike tv is awesome some of the time, like when CSI is on.

I had a baked sweet potato for dinner and it was good :)

i need to drink more water.

I start my research job on Monday

I cannot wait until Jeremy stops working nights. It's lame. I don't know how people can work nights for a living, especially when they plan on having kids someday.
Dixie Chicks are awesome.

Perhaps took out the grape plant.

Thursday, May 11, 2006

Strange night last night. I woke up at 2 in the morning completely freaked out and scared that somethign was in the room and the next thing I knew I was in the living room on the couch. I thinking I was totally dreaming, and by the time I got my head cleared, I was still scared but I couldn't remember about what. So, I figured being scared and alone was pretty stupid cuz Jeremy was in bed and I should be scared and curled up next to him. But, I was so freaked out that I turned the other bedroom light on so the hallway could be bright. I ended up waking Jeremy up and told him I had a nightmare even though I don't remember what it was. I think it had something to do with Lost. He ended up staying up with me until he had to get up for work at 4. And I felt horrible about it. That man gets so little sleep. But I was freaked out. And I don't know why.

Then, when I finally went back to sleep after Jeremy left, I had this strange dream that I went to some kind of party with some Indian chick who wanted to borrow my clothes which was fine but she kept on going through my closet and picking out really big, men's clothes to wear. And I had to keep telling her no, she couldn't wear those things. Then, the party ended up being like the Christian retreat thing but I was still going to go to it. So, I went back to my car and I think I took everything from the house including the kitchen sink and put it in my car because I had everything in there. I was looking for something to wear and finish up one of my papers that I had due that night. And I put everything that I had in my car and locked it up. Then, me and the Indian girl was walking up through the parking lot to go to the party and I started to worry that I forgot to look the car. So I ran back and by the time I got there, half the stuff was stolen out of my car. So I was sitting there thinking about how stupid I was when two cars pulled up. They were coming back to steal the rest of my stuff. I started screaming and this off duty cop came up and arrests them. I tried to go through their van and truck to find my other stuff, but they had already dropped it off somewhere. But, I did find my backpack which had my paper in it that was due. But, I wasn't all that sad because the stuff that they had stolen was all old clothes that I didn't really wear anymore. ANd they hadn't gotten into my glove box which had the radar dectector and Jeremy's IPOD and some other stuff.

Then, in my dream, Katie walks up and asks me if I want to hang out. She has this gay guy with her and everytime I say something, he says something like "yeah, right" I can tell that he doesn't like me and he thinks I'm the scum of the earth for treating Katie the way I do. I tell her I'm not going with her because it's obvious that she talks about me to her friends because here's this guy that I don't even know and he hates me for some reason. And then I woke up.

Which the dream sort of freaks my out because I always leave crap in my car and people couldn't totally break into the car thinking that it wasn't crap. And, I'm suppose to go to a party at Katie's this weekend that she invited me to over facebook for a graduation party. Apparently, all my friends from highschool that were in my grade went the five year route, so they are all graduating now instead of last year. And I don't really want to go because I'm sure that it will be all Louisville people that I won't know. And it's on Sunday.

I don't know. What a weird night.

Wednesday, May 10, 2006

sniff. sniff.

Chris is gone. Thank goodness Taylor is still there.
I went out to lunch with Sandra at Olive Garden and that was nice. Then when I got home, Jeremy and I went out to do some errands. We went grocery shopping and got a bunch of healthy goodies. I also got some calcium with D cuz I need to start thinking about the future. Build up your reserves now because once you hit 30 or so, it's all down hill from there.

The cumcumbers are comign in full force as well as a baby zuchini. And when I say baby, I mean the babies from the seeds. Not the actual fruit. That will take a bit while longer.

We got stuff from the store so that Jeremy can make chocolate chip cookies. He has the recipe memorized so I figured he should do some baking. Surprising, Jeremy LOVES the sugar cookies I made. I tried to eat one yesterday and I actually gagged, but Jeremy has been downing them like no tomorrow. So, maybe it's just me that thinks they're bad. Mainly because they have lots of vanilla in them (not such a fan) and the eggy taste. But alas, I can't offer them to anyone else except my husband when I can't even take a bite with out gagging and having to spit it out. Jeremy asked me to make some more in the future. We'll see.

Lost and amazing race is on tonight.

And I have orange jello in the fridge.

Lissa, I hope you feel better. Get lots of rest!

Tuesday, May 09, 2006

I’ll go ahead and write this blog entry in word and hopefully the stupid blogger site will load by then.

So, the cookies aren’t that good. But, I don’t know if it’s just me that thinks they aren’t that good. They taste too eggy to me. But I have issues with eggy desserts and custards anyway. Jeremy said he likes them. He also said he didn’t think it would be that great of an idea to take some into work. Hmmm…

Oh well, I tried. It was the thought that counts. I think I’m going to stick to the premade boxes.

I’m about ready to do a whirlwind throughout the entire house and clean it from top to bottom. I was suppose to go out to lunch with Sandra either today or tomorrow, but she hasn’t gotten back to me yet.

Now my poison whatever it is is all crusty and stuff. I guess that’s a good thing?

I really love my husband. I was reading this book yesterday about the different love languages. Out of five, I need four of them and Jeremy only needs one. Which just happens to be acts of service. Hence, I’m going to be a whirlwind and clean the house really well while he is at work. I’m not convinced that his is really acts of service. I think it may be touch and sympathy too. But I’m not for sure.

I need to poop.

Love you guys!

Monday, May 08, 2006

I got all A's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In Nutrition and OTC too.

And I just baked homemade sugar cookies from scratch :)

Anybody want some? I have lots!

Sunday, May 07, 2006

Well,

The itching hasn't abated. Is that the right word?

And I have to be a bridesmaid for Mona's wedding. But Jeremy only has to be an usher. Which is sort of lame. I more removed than Jeremy. They have a blood connection. I just married in for goodness sakes!I am really happy for her though. Greg is a good guy. I'm glad I don't have any more sisters to marry off, because I wouldn't know what to do if I had more than two bothers-in-laws named Greg. They are gettting married next July.

Damn itching. It's really crimping my style.
Well, the itching has officially moved to my tummy and my legs. Ick. And calamine lotion isn't helping as much as I thought it would. It's not as thick as I think it should be.

Jeremy got home last night really late, but he got another $100 tip. Tomorrow, we are depositing $400 cash into savings. And then we will be that much closer to getting Jeremy his new car. Every time we add another $100 or so to savings, I make a really big deal about it so he knows that I really care about him getting a new car. I know that he is really excited about it. The ole red camaro just ain't cutting it anymore. I just hope that it can last until we get my car paid off and have enough for a downpayment for him.

Jeremy slept until 1 or so and then he got up to deal with the internet issue. Insight has been really shady for the past weekend but he talked to the service people today and they said all the issues should be dealt with by Monday. And they gave us 3 days off our bill, so that's nice. And most importantly, Vonage is back up and we have a freaking phone. I seriously do not know what I would have done if we didn't have cell phones. I'm glad there wasn't an emergency.

We just got back from eating lunch. I hadn't eaten anything all day except for some brownies. It's so funny how good things taste when you're really hungary. Two thumbs up for zucchini burgers. I went and looked at the baby cucumber plant and sadly I think that it may be a weed. I guess only time will tell.

Stupid poison oak. I think I have some on my face too.

In case anyone was wondering, Mother's day is on the 14th. I was all worried because they are having Mother's Day marathons on TV but the internet was down and I couldn't check. And then mom called and I felt all bad because I hadn't called her first. But, the good news is that it isn't until next weekend.

I really like my husband. he's my favorite. I think I'm going to go watch the Incredibles with him.

Saturday, May 06, 2006

Man, poison ivy sucks. I'm itching like crazy. I need that pink stuff stat.


Bluegrass Cat came in 2nd place. And that is one of the horses owned by those awesome folks who gave Jeremy his $300 tip last night. Jeremy got home at around 1 and napped until 4. Then he headed back to work. I'm sure he's going to be a tad tired when he gets home tonight. But, tomorrow, he has the day off. I just talked to him, and the owners aren't back from Louisville yet. I hope that they get there soon because I want him home. I miss him.

I baked brownies. I baked blueberry muffins yesterday and I figured that Jeremy would need brownies really bad after working for such a long time. I couldn't figure out how to make them in an IV form, so I went ahead and baked them.

I think we have a baby cucumber coming up. That makes me happy. The baby tomatoes and the melons and doing beautifully. I'm very happy. And I think I killed off the rest of the poison oak today, so that's good. Where in the world did that stuff come from? I mean, we don't have that many things growing in the garden, but the two spots we do have there's freaking poison oak in it. Lame. I cleaned out those two places.

well, I guess I'm going to go watch some more TV.

I love my family.
That's it... my neighbors are freaks. And not the anti-dogs crazy neighbors. The neighbors that are next door to us. Little old lady decided to power wash the outside of her house. In the middle of the night. Granted, normally people may not think that 10 am is in the middle of the night, but it is when I wake up because I think the freaking power washer is in the bedroom!

Jermy didn't get home until 3:30 this morning and then he had to leave again at 4:45. Which made Virginia a very sad and tired camper because I stayed up to spend my very short hour with him. So, when I don't get to sleep until 5, 10 am is in the middle of the night. He is suppose to get off for like five hours SOMETIME to come home and sleep but then he has to go back to work tonight. Times like these I really wish he still worked by the hour instead of salary. Cuz working 48 hours straight ain't covered by no salary. Although the $300 tip was nice last night (he counted wrong earlier), I totally would have given it up to have him home. I really missed him.

Not to mention we both have poison oak. I have it on my forearms and I'm miserable. Jeremy has it elsewhere and he is really miserable. We were suppose to go to the farmer's market today whenever he got home, but I think he is going to be tired.

In other news, my grandmother willed each of us girls 10%. I would like to get a lap top, but i really don't need one. WE are saving up money for Jeremy's new car... the mini cooper isn't as practical as one might think. I guess we will just wait and see.

The freak's washing her windows now. At least that isn't nosiy. Wow, aren't I the bitter one?

I had a dream the other night that I was back at ole Fairdale and lifeguarding. Man, I loved that job. I miss it alot. I wish that I could take the animals and Jeremy to Louisville for the summer and make out mortgage nonexistant. I loved the outdoors and the kids and the responsibility. It was awesome. And when I lifeguarded, I was most secure with my body, not because I was the most in shape back then, but because I was forced to be secure with my body. You don't really have a choice when you're in a bathingsuit over 8 hours, every day. I miss the people I worked with too. I'm sure they are all gone. Most of them were gone before I even left. But, man, it was an awesome job. I could totally do that job for the rest of my life, but it's one of those things where you can't really work at 9 bucks an hour for your entire life.

Turtle sure is cute. I like her alot.
Jeremy just got a $275 tip. With that and my A, we're heading to Vegas!

Today has been strange. The internet has been down since yesterday but it went on for like five minutes for me to check my email and write that little blog post before it went out again. And it just came back on just now but the phone still isn't working.

Can I just say how excited I am about that grade change. I am so glad that I went to eat lunch with Lissa, otherwise I would never had gone to the library and sat down to look over all those old assignments and I would have never had found that mistake. I'm just so glad in general. I woke Jeremy up in the middle of the night just to remind him I got that A. Now, watch me get a B in Nutrition and OTC.

You know, I bet there are people who think I'm all weird about being all obsessed about getting all A's. But, really, this year has made me be that way. Because, as Dr. Cshuai said, I'm a B+ kind of gal. And I'm ok with that. I didn't come into pharmacy school being obsessed. I was completely surprised when I got my grades last semester and they were all A's. Literally, my jaw dropped. But then the whole Faith thing happened and maybe getting sick and me not talking to Chris and just the drama that is my life and school was the one thing that I could get lost in. I could get lost in it and not have to think and it could be my excuse to not think or feel because it was legitamate. And the first thing I thought of when I saw that B was about how I've spent my entire semester basically putting all my energy into school just so I wouldn't have a nervous breakdown and it wasn't good enough. It wasn't good enough for an A. ANd I got all worried because if I can't use the one coping mechanism that I know for when things get really hard (and dealing with the death and Jeremy and his family was the hardest thing I've ever done), but else did I have? I really needed this A just to know that I am capable of being sane and able in insane times.

Virginia,
Thanks you for dropping off your lab papers this afternoon. In reviewing
your papers, it was indeed scored incorrectly. You actually had 8/10
and 17/20 on lab 3. That changes your percentage and final course
grade. I will complete a grade change form and correct this.
Thanks and sorry for the error.
Dr. Freeman

I found an error on lab #3 and I got an A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got 16/20 on an assignment and it was suppose to be 16.5.... And that one little 0.5 got me an A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a half a point away from getting an A in CAPP. I'm pissed.
Who do I know that goes to Bellarmine?

Today was a nice day.

WE got up and Jeremy made cinnamon buns. And any day there is cinnamon buns, it's a good day. Lissa stopped by to pick up Twinkie and she had a nice day too I'm sure cuz she got to partake in the abovementioned cinnamon buns.

Then I took a nap and while I was sleeping, Jeremy did a bunch of yard work. And then when I woke up, we went and got stuff to make bruscetta. I accidently bought some moldy strawberries too, and that made me sad.

After dinner, i went and transplanted the baby tomatoes and planted some squash. And Jeremy planted the grapes. I hope they do ok.

Then, I searched for Celeste's invite to her wedding because it's been misplaced for a while. It was under about a million things of school stuff. I'm excited about the wedding. It's so nice to see people at the climax of all their hard work and happiness.

I was planning on going to Louisville today to see Amerisa's art show but my nap nipped that idea in the butt. But I think they have finals this week, so I don't think it would have been the best time anyway.
