defying gravity

Tomorrow morning at 7:55, I am getting in a metal tube that defies gravity and heading to Birmingham Al. Those who know me, know that there must be something pretty wonderful at the end of this air travel or I would not be going. Indeed, I am making a trip to see Sandy. It has been two years this September since I saw Sandy. It is always funny to me how I see her only every two years or so yet when we are together it is like not one minute has passed since we were together last. Usually within just a few minutes we are talking alike, and laughing at stuff only we think is funny. God blessed me with her friendship a long, long time ago, and for that I am indescribably thankful. I can't wait to see her and Paul! I am sure that it will be a wonderful weekend of laughing and togetherness!
See ya soon!

ho hum

We have entered the ho hums of summer. It is the time that going to the pool is not as much fun anymore, the time when doing nothing is not ok, the time when I must start thinking of school again.
Did I say school, again??? Where does time go? Just yesterday it was May 29th and I was breathing a sigh of relief that school was out, I had survived graduation (again) and that the best was yet to come. Here I am 6 weeks later, and I only have less than a month before I go back to work. I started working on school and you know what happened? Even this blog that I ignore and claim to be completely over suddenly is calling my name. Can you say procrastion? The truth is I feel overwhelmed, I have to reinvent the wheel again this year and that task just seems too much. I feel like crying. Will it help? No, will I anyway, probably. It is times like these that my ADD kicks in big time, and I can't do anything.
On a bright (extremely bright, blindingly bright)note, I am going to suck up my fear of flying,(and maybe take a Valium or two) and fly to Birmingham next week. I can not wait to see Sandy and Paul! I want to meet their friends, see their work and everything Bham has to offer.
