april showers got me down.

Don't get me wrong, i LOVE rain (and tornadoes)...but all i want to do is lay on the front lawn on my quilt pretending to do my homework while I people watch. But alas, i cannot afford time away from my studies right now...which is why i'm blogging? Yes. Procrastination is, in fact, the name of the game.

I could talk about things that are going on here, but a mixture of frustration and anxiety would make it quite an unpleasant post. SOOO i'mma tell y'all about things you might not know about my world. Yes, this is my world, i am Justin Beiber.

1) This is my grandpa, Howard Homer Hayes.

He'll be turning 97 on May 2nd. Yes. NINETY-SEVEN. 

He has CHF, and when he came to stay with us, we were told he would have 3, maybe 4, months at best. And here we are, 3 and 1/2 years later, making his oatmeal every morning, finding the college basketball channel ever afternoon and playing 4+ games of SKIP-BO every night. 

2) This is my lake. 

Okay, so it's not technically mine, but i love it with all of my heart.
Lake Arcadia sits about a half mile from my house, right over the river and through the woods...just kidding, but it is across a highway. 

Our family loves getting up at about 5 a.m. on summer Saturdays to ski/wakeboard/tube/kneeboard.

Yes, we actually enjoy it. 

3) This is my cell phone.

Yes, i took a screen shot of this...because i felt popular. 

Note: it was 9:50 AM. Who gets that many texts before 10 am? 

This girl!

Actually, it really never happens to me, that's why i felt compelled to take a picture. 

Now i'm actually going to do my homework....HA!

The dealio, Julio.

Words I want to revive this week:

- dealio

- boobie (yes, singular.)

For fear of writing a very self-pitying post about the trials of growing up and how I WANT IT TO STOP, i'll just tell you the good things.

1) I'm an auntie!

Olivia Rose came into this world on March 27th. Gorgeous, i know. PERFECT, in fact. 

My arms literally ache to hold her. 

2) 

YES.

3) Long-limbed friends.

Scarily beautiful?

4) Awkward story time. I can't decide weather that means that it's time for an awkward story or that the story time itself is going to be awkward. Either way: 

I went to Freed this past friday to see Makin' Music.

Twas delightful.

Events:

Saw show.

Saw Bestfriend.

Hugged Bestfriend.

Bestfriend's girlfriend walked up.

Met her.

Accidentally insulted girlfriend's club's show.

Girlfriend left.
