Don't worry, I'm alive...

Check it: $5 Cover got an article written about it
And it starts MONDAY at midnight (I shall DVR and have a watchparty if you'd like, because...)
Also, Cory Branan is playing Friday. You know where (the WWT, of course).

And I'll be done with school. (Un)Officially.

Just turned in a huge paper, and my hands are sweating. Kicked some serious booty on a GINORMO presentation I gave this a.m.
2 giant things done. 1 more to go...

Update time...

*Here are some pictures of Pooty & Zoey running around in the garden... which will have beautiful veggies and herbs very soon!
*EIGHT DAYS OF SCHOOL LEFT. Holy goodness, I cannot wait.
*Much like Leah, the majority of my semester has been "on your own time" assignments. Which I have none of (my own time, I mean). We have had to do a trillion assessments (thank you to all my guinea pigs) which has taken a gazillion hours.
*In addition to these said assessments, I have to write ginormous papers (aren't you loving these descriptive words I'm using?). My current paper (ONE OF THEM) is 33 pages. And I'm about 2/3 done. Shoot me.
*Eight days left. I can do this.
*Looking for an internship for next year... I have some pretty awesome leads... Fingers crossed.
*Lots of pictures today- keep scrolling!
*Got to see Melissa and fam last night- yay!
*Eight days.

Spring has sprung at the Spann house

... and Jeremy has been workin' hard! We bought some beauuuuutiful azaleas for the front flower bed. They are the Encore kind, so that means they'll come back (hopefully) in the summer and fall. If the AR heat doesn't get them too bad... YAY!

Here's what we've got in the flower bed by the front door. Starting at 1:00: a plant called fireworks-something-or-other, then I don't know what the yellow and pink ones are (anyone?? I love them though!!), and some amethyst-something-or-other. Ok, so I'm not so good with plant names, but it sure is looking good! Way to go, hubby-o-mine!

GORGEOUS, aren't they??

Meet Gertrude

Meet our new friend, Gertrude! Jeremy and I were going to grill some shrimp Friday night (mmmmm)... and I noticed this little lady sitting in one of our potted plants on the deck. On the grill, to be more specific. It appears that she has built a nest and will be having babies quite soon, I believe.
We obviously couldn't leave her there, so Jeremy ducked down, picked her up (she didn't move!), and carried her oh-so-slowly to a new location, on the wine rack on the deck. She's still in the middle of the action, but not on top of the grill... She doesn't seem to be bothered by Pooty and Zoey running around the deck and barking. She didn't seem to be bothered by the days of rain over the weekend. She HAS been getting fatter... and seems quite content in her new home. Fingers crossed! Happy Earth Day!

I'm the Mary, and you're the Rhoda.

Michele: Did you lose weight?

Romy: Actually, I have been trying this new fat free diet I invented. All I've had to eat for the past six days are gummy bears, jelly beans, and candy corns.

Michele: God, I wish I had your discipline.

Apparently, 10 years somehow passed, and it's happening. Oh, Lord, that can't be right. Are we going? Let's discuss the pros and cons of high school reunions. Go.

Ch-check it out, yo
