My AWESOME mother, RIDICULOUSLY COOL grandmother, AMAZING aunt, and MY FAVORITEST 5 YEAR OLD IN THE WORLD (Cooper) came to visit me last week. We did lots of fun things and ate too many sweets. I need to update pictures and I will. I promise. Just not tonight.
MISS YOU ALL!!!!

Mmmm-mmm-good.
I don't know why I named my post that. I'm sitting here watching football on mute, the windows open, the 64 degree wind blowing in, and listening to Ben Folds' Zak and Sara and that's the first thing that came to mind.
Anyhow, no pictures to update with today but I'll try to entertain you none-the-less. Well, at least say something worth hearing if it's not entertaining. Moving right along...
Tim and I went to see the Blue Man Group in Boston on Thursday. Apparently he works out with one of the blue men and that guy was nice enough to give us tickets. I had never really known what the Blue Men do but I was pleasantly surprised. It was in the Charles Playhouse which is teeny-tiny which was my first surprise. There really wasn't a bad seat in the house. The played paint drums, recreated a perfect rendition of Crazy Train by Ozzy with sticks and pipes, caught lots and lots of marshmellows in their mouths, and overall just made me laugh. If you ever get the experience to check them out, I highly suggest it.
On a side note, I got a small part time job on the side working for White House Black Market. I did this for numerous reasons but none of them seemed too important to me at the time. But then the competitive side might, sorta, maybe came out in me and I just want to tell you that I've worked 3 days and sold more than any other sales associate in the place all three days. Uh-huh. Hold the applause please. No. Really. It's not that big of deal. I know, I know. I'm awesome. Okay really. Stop cheering for me. We have other things to discuss...
Let's see... what else do you not know that I want you to know...
Tim and I gave the show Dexter another chance and now I'm hooked.
OH! The most exciting part :) Tim and I have found a church that we like and attended Sunday School last week. We met another couple that just happen to originally be from Florida and also happen to be college football fans. If I haven't mentioned it already, the North does NOT know how to do college football. Anyhow, we went out to eat with them last week after church and they invited us to watch football with them today :) We're going to grill out and watch football with another married couple. I feel old but also really excited. I still am not quite sure how I lived in Atlanta for almost a year and never made any friends but I'm here for 2 weeks and already have a football date but oh well. I won't think too hard on this subject.
Speaking of friends, I really really miss mine. Now, I didn't have too many. Like, 2 maybe 3 but that's not the point. I miss them. It's so different up here and I'm just a tad homesick...Okay more homesick than I care to admit...but at least I have Tim. I won't have him in a week... He leaves for Mexico for 5 weeks but at least I'll stay busy. I miss my family, I miss familiarity, I miss Cooper. Anyhow, despite all of that, I do love it up here. I wish everyone I cared about and loved would move up here, then that would make it better. Come on people, it's not that big of a request...
Okay, I'm about finished but on a serious note. We have a family friend named Susie. She's an amazing person that's facing a very difficult time. Please whisper a prayer that God will wrap His arms tightly around her and that in the end, His name will be glorified. But also pray for a miracle.
Love you all. Miss you all. See you later. :)
