At the request of others, and my need to get it all out, (not really) I have decided to finally update this damn thing. I will start out by saying how happy I am for Lauren and Mike and the Jellybean. I'll keep coming up with funny names to call her until you guys can think of something better...Shaniqua? I don't think so ( Read more... )

Now I'm in a suburb near Deerfield. I think...I forgot what it's called...Howie, Eliot, and I are hanging out with their Aunt and Uncle and cousins. It's really neat out here. The complete opposite of the city life is pretty enticing. You get the best of both worlds in a forty minute drive. It's a great house too, yes, bigger than the Fresh ( Read more... )

Being in Chicago makes me realize just how much I want to live here. I've been staying with Howie and Eliot in the city where a guy from high school, Craig, lives. He's really nice, and I love his apartment. Last night we had dinner and drinks with their cousins, Josh and Allie. Josh makes a bunch of money as the director of sales for something ( Read more... )

I am in South Florida celebrating Christmas with my mom, dad, brother, grandma, grandpa, and my Howie. I am really happy to be with everything this Christmas! I love my family so much and it's just a great day! I can't help feeling mushy. Howie gave me a VS gift card ($100!) that I get to use. What to buy, what to buy...The Semi-Annual sale ( Read more... )

Someone call and order some pizza! I should be at home baking and packing to go back to South Florida. My grandparents are in town. Time for another great Christmas! I am feeling really bad because I couldn't call Lauren after the wedding! My phone would not charge in my car for some reason and then it just shut off on me! I got so lost too, ( Read more... )

Wow, I'm nervous...only nine months left until I have to start buying books for Grad. school...I guess I have to finish applying first...it's so overwhelming to think about my own classroom and my first group of students...what if I suck ( Read more... )

Okay, for those of you who know me, you know that I am a kind and loving person. I have been known to act rather out of character in the past, so please do not be too surprised or offended by what I have to say now. I just wanted to say, that it is so nice to see how FAT some people have gotten. It happens to just the right people SOMETIMES...in ( Read more... )

Work was fun and easy today...aside from the immense knee pain...I need insoles ( Read more... )

As usual, I'm thinking again...thinking about what a great weekend I had in South Florida, and thinking about all the great times that place has brought me. As I was driving back to Orlando tonight, I realized just how happy I am to live away from that place. If I could move my parents and a few other people to a different place, it'd be the ( Read more... )

Today has been remarkably productive. I went to work at Fratello's (for the last time!!!) and only had to work for three hours...then I saw Howie and now I'm back at home packing all my clothes to go home. I have gone through all of my drawers and my closet, and I can not believe how many items of clothing I own! Strangely enough, I have ( Read more... )
