Hurrah!
They opened the upper bridge!! Yippie!! Tra - la - laaaa!!!May 20, 2005
Ahhh...
Right now I can hear the dog down the street barking. I can hear the birds chirping. I can hear the children laughing. A car passes. In the distance there is the faint sound of a lawn mower. I am sitting on my bed with the two dogs at my feet. I can even hear an owl...The windows are open and the curtains are blowing... The shadows from the sun peeking through the trees dance on the swaying fabric.
Once in a while it is beautiful to not think of anything but right now.
Eric will be home soon. I will go to the store to spend our last $50 on beer and dog food. When I deposit his check on Monday I will have time during the week to pick up some food.
For now, I don't want to think of anything but right now. The dogs are quiet and the birds are singing. The curtains are dancing and I am happy.

When it happens it all happens. I have three different engagements this weekend. All three events are on Saturday at around 2 pm. Ugh. I might have to just play hermit and stay home. Which reminds me that I need to sand the kitchen floor, then poly it. I also need to get my car inspected - the damn thing expired in March. Thank heavens that class is over for the summer. I have been going to school for two years straight - it feels so wonderful to not have to think about what paper is due or when the next exam is...I really need to start jogging again, but I think that I will due much better on a treadmill. Why do I think that? Past experience. I did really well on the treadmill. I "ran" the whole winter long... I loved it...

Tulip
Last year Eric tore up our front yard because I want a patio there. It is a really small area that was a hill. It had lots of pretty flowers but was difficult to take care of. It is the perfect spot to have little set of chairs and a nice chimnea. This is one of the surviving flowers...School is done for now. Just one class to take in the fall and I should be done. Now what the hell should I do when I grow up?! Should I take the time to get my masters or should I find a better job and see what I want to do then get a masters or should I open up a coffee shop?!

Long Hot Summer Nights
I really can't wait for summer this year! I am not taking any classes... no papers to worry about, no exams to study for... Just relaxation and freedom...Speaking of school. I am considering going for my masters. A masters of what you might ask?! Well that is still unclear but I have been looking into it and it is just another 36 credits in most cases. Sounds interesting...

Kissing cows.
I am going to start running. I am going to start eating better. I am going to stop eating for the wrong reason. I am going to start my summer May 12th.
To the left is the kissing cows I doodled in high school. I really want to be creative again...

A nice shitty day.
Okay today started out fine. When I got home the house was not horribly destroyed. The dogs were fine. I had a few beers and watched a few episodes of Sex in the City before I was going to start cooking dinner and work on my paper.Eric came home and started to mow the lawn. The mower began to fart. Eric needed money for gas and lunch. Okay. Both fixable issues. Run to my moms to pick up Eric's gas can and go to the ATM for lunch money. We even stopped for gas.
Things were just fine. Until we smelled shit. Okay. the shit smell is normal - farts smell like shit. Yeah. Uh uh. There was a big loaf of shit in my back seat. I started to freak out and scream. Eric began to laugh. We made it home and Cleo freaked out. She jumped into the front seat and peeed because she knew that she pooped in the car and I was just a bit upset about it.
Now Eric and I are going to watch Meet the Fockers.

Its May?!?
Holy crap, it is May!. Classes and finals are over by May 11th. That is great and crazy at the same time. I am going to be a mad woman trying to get this paper done and study for the finals. Both are cumulative - something new for me. The last cumulative exam I took was the AP Bio test in 11th grade.Cleo is still chewing on everything we own. The most recent loss that is truly disheartening is a bunch of our bootleg tapes. Right, okay, I hear you say "But Addie, when did you or Eric ever listen to a tape?! You both have cd players in your cars and your tuner in the living room is busted." Right, you may have a point but those are not exactly replaceable...
I cannot wait for this weekend. I might study for an hour or two but who the hell am I gonna kid, it is time to party. (Pssst... is this messy?)
