Pretty Good Year

(*yes, that was a conscious reference to the Tori Amos song. :))
Well, here goes: the first annual Year In Review post.  Oh-seven has been a year of drastic changes and events, so I figured it was worth it.

Another milestone left in the dust

Yup. I graduated today… again. I am now Little Ms. Thang with a master’s degree. I didn’t think this was a big deal, until last night.
CJ bought me a graduation present. Unexpectedly. An AWESOME graduation present — two place settings of the dishes I always ooh and aah over at Crate & Barrel. Before you [...]

spring break starts in eight days.

Nesting

I suppose it’s a spring thing… I can’t stop fantasizing about cleaning and organizing things. I am usually a VERY organized neat freak. I alphabetize my DVDs , organize my books by subject. I like to make my bed in the mornings, and totally get off on the smell of lemon Pledge and Windex. [...]

Stuck with me

I think this is going to be my official, full-time blog from now on. I am ticked off at blogger.com for losing some of my stuff when they switched over to their new site. So here I am. WordPress, don’t let me down. Hmmph. Now I’ll just have to find the time to finish the [...]
