Right now I have too much on my plate but I am not very hungry. I am looking down and the piles of paper and crap that needs to be sorted through and the things that still need to be packed and the online final that needs to be finished and all I am doing is looking at it. Guess I can see that the end is near, nearer than it has ever been before. All this stuff that I have to do is just making me even closer to being "done." Maybe that is why I am avoiding my responsibilities right now. Because the end is not really the end, it is a huge beginning. And there are no sure things in this beginning. As exciting as it all is, it is twice as scary. School is safe and May 25th is unsure at this point. I never thought I would feel like this...it is a weird feeling. Exciting, but weird.

Happiness is...

...one more week of classes left. Or, maybe it is sadness. I haven't figured it out yet.

You know spring has sprung...

A Nice and Not-so-Nice day

Nice: Having a stranger say "Bless you" after you have just sneezed.
Not-so-Nice: Having a nasty head cold.

Nice: Going to the the last meeting of a class for the entire semester which places you one step closer to graudation.
Not-so-Nice: Having that last class be choir and realizing that may have been the last chior you will ever sing in.

Nice: Realizing you don't have to rush around all day anymore.
Not-so-Nice: Realizing you don't have to rush around all day anymore because it was also your last day of volunteering, something you really enjoyed.

Nice: Your car starting today without a problem.
Not-so-Nice: Rememebering how expensive it was to accomplish that.

Nice: Just a little over two more weeks to go.
Not-so-Nice: Realizing that it is already time to start saying goodbye.

Let's hope for all "nice" tomorrow.

Who Again?

A few weeks ago, while Grant and I were have some having some good clean fun with Jason and Allie, there was a slight misunderstanding during a conversation. We were actually on our way to mass on Good Friday. However, once we arrived at the church it became very clear that when we did find parking (which seemed very unlikely) there was going to be no chance that we would have ever found a place to sit, let alone a place to stand within the church. After Jason made the executive decision to continue driving rather than look for parking, this conversation ensued:

Allison: I guess we will just have to go to Cold Stone instead.
Heather: Did you just say, "Joey Fatone"?
Allison: What?!?! No!! I said Cold Stone.
Heather:Oh. Riiight.

So yesterday, Grant and I had a very similar conversation:

Heather: Oh, Honey! Last night at the Kings game, some guy proposed to his girl friend, well now I guess, his fiancé. Isn't that cute?
Grant: Who did?
Heather: I don't know, some guy at the Kings game, proposed to his fiancé.
Grant:Beyonce?
Heather: Huh?
Grant: Beyonce Knowles?
Heather: What the hell are you saying right now?
Grant: Someone proposed to her?
Heather: What? No! Fiancé! Fee-ahn-say!

I think we all know the lesson there is to be learned from all this...remember to clean out your ears.
