Hi all!

I'm sorry I've been non-existent. We had a very busy weekend, and I also have not been feeling well or sleeping. It was bad enough that I actually fell asleep at a Memorial Day party yesterday while everyone was in the pool! Ooooops.

I hope everyone had a wonderful long weekend, but more importantly I hope everyone took some time to reflect on why you had a long weekend. Since I didn't post anything yesterday, I'd like to publicly thank the vets now. Thank you for all that you've done for all of us. Thank you for being brave and strong and amazing. Thank you for giving up and losing more than the average person is willing to give up and lose. Thank you vets. Just thank you.


I got this photo from the US Dept of Defense photo archive. There are some amazing photos of our bravest men and women just doing their jobs there. I recommend that you take a look.

Today I feel better. Thankfully I am on a break between semesters and I was able to sleep for like 12 hours straight last night. I think I just need some water and a nice bath and I should be good as new!

We finally watched the episode of LOST last night that we missed a long ass time ago that made us not able to continue on with the series on the correct schedule. Episode NINE!! It was the one where Jack, Hurley, and Kate (and Sayid) come back to the island and the plane crashes and Sun, Frank, and Ben are also on the island with some new people. Yeah, it was that long ago. LOL Hopefully we'll get in another couple of episodes tonight, and then the rest tomorrow. I want to know what happens!!

Actually, tomorrow we are going to make sure to watch The Goode Family on ABC. Holy crap that is going to be funny.

Now I really need to go get some water to guzzle down. My kidneys are screaming at me! That and my blog reader is about to explode from not being read for a few days. Have a good Tuesday (even if it feels like a Monday)!

Evenin' Kids!

How was your day today? Mine went pretty well. I slept in a little and then ate a small breakfast of toast with 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter, half a banana, half a cup of strawberries, and a cup of green tea with Splenda. I worked on a presentation for tomorrow. I ate lunch a little later. It was some leftover pasta primavera from the other night. I added a teaspoon of olive oil and a teaspoon of grated parmigiano reggiano.

After lunch I browsed for some new recipes. That took waaaaay longer than expected though. I could have gotten a lot more reading done. I guess I do need to work on making up a "computer free hour" in the house.

Dinner was Eggplant Rollatini (super yummy, by the way). Hubby brought me an A&W Cream Soda! It's hard not to drink the whole 320 calorie bottle, so that was definitely an extra little treat. After dinner we watched our Monday night shows on CBS. We love Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother. We also watched Two and a Half Men and Rules of Engagement, but I think he likes those shows more than me. I can take them or leave them. What are your favorite shows?

I just finished mapping out my LAST TWO SEMESTERS of school!! Well, not of school all together because I plan to start my Masters of Library Science in the Spring. I'm so excited. As long as the history advisor doesn't totally screw me over like he does to everyone else I should be good to go. Now if he'll only get back with me to set up our advising appointment I can find out for sure. I'm taking 12 hours over two Summer sessions and then 12 more hours in the Fall.

Summer Session 1
The Bible and Western Culture
Spanish 3

Summer Session 2
Christianity and Ethics
Spanish 4

Fall
The Bible and Modern Science
Judaism
Modern Europe: Work & Family
Texas Since 1865

AND THEN I'M GONNA GRADUATE - FINALLY!

Time for bed! Wish me luck on my presentation tomorrow!
