i should really, seriously write about the grad party before i forget. i should really, seriously be journaling every day. i think the pics, when they're developed, will say a lot. i think they say 25%, and the cards say 75%. that's one thing i'd like to do with my money ... find something nice to put them all in. kinda like some of the bday cards i got from last summer, and some of the cards i got when diabetes bit me in the butt. that's a new one. i need to get my bg's under control. gosh is scares me so bad to think i've been sayin that for YEARS now. it'll be 6 years this september. that's crazy long. just insane. ok new subject, but not for long, erin ... um so yeah. scottie showed up, and that TOTALLY made the party. along with the fact that McCann, Harvey, and Howe showed up. :) hooray for that. Mrs. Harvey gave me the cutest Latin book about a little girl falling in love, and wanted me to open it in front of her. she means a lot to me. and just the fact that her, McCann, and Howe showed up was, phenomenal. the girls from work (brandy, nicole, karla) came, which was a TON of fun, and yeah, scottie stayed awhile and made the day a blast. we looked @ his pics, and i gave him two HUUUUUUGEEEE hugs when he came in. :D the phillippis came by, which was ... yeah, that totally meant a ton to me too. they gave me this AWESOME C.S. Lewis book and a really cool O keychain from San Angelo, both of which dan helped pick out, which really excited me. :) and meant a lot. vikie, dylan, and the kids came ... lissa came just to serve cake ... the neals came with krista, helped out a ton, and had the sweetest gifts and cards for me ... wow, what else? grant and justin and steve were around a lot, which was neato. it was nice to see allison, sarah, meghan, and vallejo too. and jen. have to go to her's tomorrow. still some parties left. didn't make heather's today. :( or dustin's. need to send cards to those who i didn't make. and give heather a call. hopefully i'll be doin some stuff soon with heather, mary anne, and erin m. respectively. oh and donnita. :-D have to call quite a few peeps tomorrow. and go to super target, work from 6-9, start thank you notes, and for goodness sakes, copy edit! yikes! and start lookin @ places to send query letters and resumes/clip files out to. and email the dude from the ralston recorder. and get back to Bard from USD. eeeeks. i'm growing up guys. and this safe lil secure life, (which really isn't but is starting to look more so), is aboslutely fading away and it's scarry. yay college, but then again a portion of me just wants to go back to high school ... i'm out for the night. leg and head hurt. but just wanted to say wow ... i love all you guys, and i am mucho thankful and very blessed. love makes the world go round.
