1 hot dog + heart shaped eggs + Brian = a nice day




Today was a better sort of day.


Brian decided to go to school today.


Since we are now Sam's Club members, we indulged in a very expensive lunch at the Club. We are dang cool. I think I witnessed more clumsy people knocking drinks over at that place than ever in my life. It's fine. The food was cheap. And who cares that we just bought groceries yesterday. It's not like they'll jump out of our fridge and run away.




And I ended the day with a heart shaped egg sandwich. Because I have the mind of a 7 year-old and need to be comforted through food. It worked though. I feel comforted.

Today was a pretty nice day. And the majority of days are actually quite nice. Really, only a handful are bad days. So overall, life is nice. You are nice. I'm nice. Your dog is nice. My heart shaped egg was nice until I ate it. Let's all remember all the nice things.

Let's hope Thursday will be an overwhelmingly nice day. Brian starts his Allstate agency. Yes, HIS. His name will be on the door. That's why he wears a tie to school nowadays. It's not so people confuse him as a professor. Although that does happen. So do not try to hand your homework in to him, but if you need some affordable insurance, call Brian up. We have been planning on this happening for a while now, but I just felt silly mentioning it on the blog. But now it is really happening and it will be a busy and big part of our lives. I feel so blessed that this opportunity came up for Bri. How nice.
Nice, nice, nice.

school girl

I went back to school today. As much as I'm trying to be excited about school starting again I'm just. .not.

If I could have one more month of summer, I think things would be good. Really good. However, Kelsey Keller Weller is not in charge of creating the calendar and it's a good thing or nothing would get done. Every day would probably be a holiday and everyone would play and eat yummy desserts.

So yeah, I went to my classes and realized that I felt very overwhelmed. And I still do feel overwhelmed. In the past, I go to class in the morning and I'm done by noon. Today I went to class in the morning and got home at 5. I got home at 5, crashed on the couch and ate a Fudge Round.

Why do I feel so overwhelmed? I believe it is because I am finally to that point that every college students dreams of. The moment you no longer are forced to take classes that you have zero interest in. The moment all the classes you take sound interesting and apply to your major. Yep, I'm to that moment. I should be happy, right? But I'm afraid. I'm afraid that I might fail at things I think I'm good at.

But let's get real, I'm a real worrier and can be quite the drama queen when I want to be. I am sure once I get into my routine, I'll be lovin' life. I am so so blessed I even have the chance to gain a higher education.

So tomorrow I vow to not think about failure and not eat any more Fudge Rounds (at least tomorrow I won't eat one). It will be a better day. Especially since I have English 2010 with husband and Shay Baybay. How is that not a good day, really?


And Bri Guy took the traditional 'first day of school' pic for me. It just wouldn't be the first day of school without it. . .

Oh, and Brian hates this shirt. He doesn't understand that peter pan collars are cool nowadays. He calls me Daisy Duck when I wear it. It's fine. His harassment only motivates me to wear it more. And usually these things end up growing on him.
