Here I am!

When did I become such a terrible blogger? I think it's when I became obsessed with google reader and I didn't have to go see my blog every time I wanted to see if any of you guys had updated. Since I don't have to see mine all the time, I kind of forget. I used to be so good... Ah, well. Update!
1. Last weekend was the Lucero Family Picnic in Batesville.
2. Kim and Martha came with me and Jeremy. We had a great time.
3. Jeremy and I talked to Ben, and he's definitely in for the wedding. Can you freaking believe it? This is really happening.
4. Kim and Martha handed out sparklers to many fans at the show. It was a beautiful moment.
5. They sped up the lineup because of the impending hurricane. Lucero came on at 7:30 instead of 10:30. They played for a long, long time, and we didn't end up getting wet. It was awesome.
6. My school year is going really well so far... I am actually working in Conway Public Schools, doing real work. I am totally going to love my job when this is all over with.
7. Classes are not too terrible right now, however...
8. I am in the process of studying for COMPS (gasp. gulp.). That means I have a test on November 11th over every.single.class.I've.ever.taken. Multiple choice and essay (she says as she vomits).
9. My GA position is going (pretty) well so far too. I am in the same building pretty much all day, which gets fairly old, so please feel free to send me an email to entertain me during the loooong days.
10. Today is the first day of fall. This makes me very happy.
11. Jeremy and I have enjoyed a couple of firepits in the past week because of the cool(er) weather. This also makes me very happy.
12. Know what else makes me happy? I have some pretty amazing bridesmaids. You girls are awesome. Thanks for all that you're doing... for realz.
13. Katie's bday was last week! Happy (very) belated birthday, my love!
14. I got to talk to Chandle for a long time on the phone on Sunday. She makes me laugh. A lot.


15. Corey Branan and Ben played an acoustic set at Josie's (just like last year). They were incredible, as usual, and I think Kim fell a little in love with Corey.
16. Ummmmmmmm..... that's all I can think of at the moment. My evenings are much less homework-filled these days (except the nights I study for comps... once a week at this point). So call me. ;)
