Brain Dump Friday

I’m not even going to start off this post by apologizing for not blogging- because really, I am sorry that I can’t blog more, but there just isn’t really much I can do about right now. I’m finishing school, only 50 days left, and then maybe I can establish a normal life, sans homework. I really can’t fathom life without it at this point. Jim and I were making some plans for late May and he said, “If we do that, you’ll be gone three weekends in a row!” and I replied, “but school will be over!” I won’t have to spend my weekends catching up on homework or doing stuff I could have done during the week, but didn’t because I was trying to get homework done. Oh what joy shall be mine…

This week, I’ve had a nasty cough- like the kind that makes you sound like you’re going to cough up a lung at any point, and the kind that keep both the person who is sick as well as the spouse who isn’t sick (sorry babe!) awake all night. I also had an awesome back spasm Monday/Tuesday, which made things more interesting, as I walked around like a little 80 year old lady who needed a cane. After taking almost an entire bottle of cough medicine and not really seeing any improvement, I went to the doctor yesterday- and I have bronchitis. So, I’ve got some poor substitute of the bubble gum flavored medicine and a Z pack- hopefully, we’ll be good by next week!

Did I mention that it’s only 50 days until I graduate- but an even better thing is that only 43 days until I have no more assignments.

In other things, I’m getting really excited about baseball season. Texas Ranger games, lemon chills, cotton candy, home runs, Josh Hamilton- I mean I love Texas Rangers! Would I still love Texas Rangers even if Josh Hamilton didn’t play- I’ll let you know if that ever is an issue.

The last thing of really any importance is that I got a new iPhone this week. Why? Well, because the left side of my screen stopped working. It wouldn’t read that I was touching it, which makes it difficult to use a touch screen phone. Thankfully, my sweet husband let me use his upgrade to get a new one at a discount price. The next day, I took my little siblings to walk around a lake here in town, and one of my little brothers took my old phone with him. He then set it down at a water fountain. I didn’t even realize it until a friend of mine that lives out of town called and said someone had found a phone with her number in it. (It had been wiped clean and only had a couple of numbers that I called in it). It turns out, the lady who found it was from out of town and just visiting her grandmother.

That was a pretty pointless story.

I’m going now.
