So....... it's been a really good Spring Break. It went by too fast, but that's par for the course, I believe.
March Madness is well on its way. UK is a pretty sloppy team this year, but they're doing better than any other team in the state of Kentucky, so I'm not disappointed. They've already beaten UAB in the NCAA Tournament, and their next opponent is Connecticut, who is picked to win the National Title. So I'm pretty doubtful about their chances tomorrow, although if they won that would make everyone in "Big Blue Nation" too excited to function.
It's gorgeous today.
I'm really close to straightening out my financial situation. I opened an account at a different bank, which was a large part of the problem the last time. A huge portion of my Wal-Mart paychecks have to go to pay off some bills, but other than that, I'm well on my way.
Spring Break was really needed. I feel so much more even keeled. Even though I didn't do much, the break was important. Rachael even got to come down for a day and we had a great time together in and around Richmond and Lexington. She's so sweet. One of the only good things about school starting is that I'll get to see her more often.
Rach and I are currently reading "Memoirs of a Geisha" and I really really enjoy it. It's so well written, and completely different than what I was expecting. It's funny, sad, dramatic, and interesting, with plenty of plot and plenty of literary elements. I would highly recommend it.
