Just a quick update...

There's not really been a whole for me to write about, not trying to bore thhe world with nonsense. Um...lets see.. Andy and I went to Kim's this weekend. It was ok, not as fun as it usually is, but fun still. Lauren asked me to be her sponsor for her baptism. I was really honored. Work sucks, only 4 more cycles to go. They are throwing me a going away party. Other than that there's really nothing else going on.

Rodeo Houston

Going to see Miranda Lambert at the Rodeo today :) Can't wait!

Quick Thought :)

Oh how I do love getting ready for the Peace Corps. I get more and more excited as the days come!!!


Miranda Lambert at the Rodeo tomorrow <3

Ist off day

Sigh...this has been a long week. So glad that it is my first day off. I'm at my mom's house...yay (insert sarcasm here..) to go shopping for Africa stuff. So far that includes eating breakfast and taking a short nap. This also includes spending un-necessary amounts of time on FB and uploading my Mardi Gras pictures. Has any shopping been done? Absolutely not. Joy. I suppose that I could go galavanting around town, but I don't really much feel like it. I need to print out some more pictures and go to Michael's to see if they have any scrapbooking stuff for Mardi Gras to add to Andrew's surprise scrapbook. The thought however, of doing all that after the very little sleep that I got sounds exhausting.

My work weeks are getting harder and harder to get through. Just knowing that there are only 6 more work cycles that I have to go through makes me have to will myself everyday just to go. Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful for the job that I have, but man...it's just not for me. I am so tired all the time. I went on a medical run this week. It was actually the highlight of my work week. The nurses were very nice to us, especially this one named Ericka.

Nothing really to update on the Peace Corps. Sent off my Visa and Passport paperwork, as well as my aspiration statement and resume. So, that's pretty much all there is to say about that. I can't wait to leave!!!!

Mardi Gras Weekend

Well, Mardi Gras weekend is over now. What a great weekend it was.  It all started with Frankie's 21st b-day. I cannot believe that my baby brother is now 21 years old. anyway, we went to my parents house to have dinner with them and Frankie and then we went to college station to have a beer with him. By the time we got home it was after 12 (I know this is not late but Andy and I had to wake up at like 5 the next day). Andrew and I made the trip over to Baton Rouge, LA at about 7 am Friday morning. The trip here wasn't too bad, relatively boring and rainy. We arrived around 12ish but Heather wasn't home yet....go figure. So, we went to find a Starbucks so that I could work on my aspiration statement. We finally made it to Heather's house and then it was party time. By 11pm we were so partied out that we were ready for bed. Heather, Manny, Christine and Vince all went to Splash (a gay club here in BR). Andy and I stayed behind because we were so tired. Saturday we got up really early to head over to Manny's apartment and got o a pink parade. It was raining very much but we didn't let that stop us. We went to the parade and got totally rained on but it was still a lot of fun. Then yesterday was the big day. We headed to New Orleans. We headed down French Corridor and all over Bourbon St. There was so many people and so many parades. We have like a billion beads that we hare going to use to decorate our house. Now it's about time to head home...if I can get Andrew to stop watching Heather's Netflix long enough to get his stuff together :)
