It's been forever since I last updated. I still read my friends page, so it really isn't fair that I haven't filled anyone in on my life.
I have been dating one guy off and on for almost two years now, his name is Chad. We met through working for the same company, and casually dated as friends for a long time. Things became official sometime around December/January, but it feels like so much longer with the dating casually. I finished school at LSU this past spring, but a Spanish independent study course postponed my actual graduation until August 8th...so this Friday, I will walk across the stage and officially become an Alumna of Louisiana State University.
I moved down to New Orleans in April, and moved into a cute little townhome with Chad and his puppy, Sammy. I love Sammy like crazy, he's a great dog. Unfortunately, two days after my birthday on July 15, my sweet Cookie Bunny passed away. We buried her and it was tough. I miss her, but I'm glad to have Chad and Sammy.
My birthday was pretty incredible. Chad had all kinds of surprises for me, and I really was blown away. I'm very much in love with this man and I think I may have found my one...but only time will tell.
I've had a pretty great summer, really. July 4th weekend I went to Biloxi with a bunch of friends and saw Pat Benatar perform once again, she was awesome as usual. Last weekend Chad and I went to Houston, or The Woodlands to be exact, with our friends Jessica and Joey to see Cheap Trick, Heart and Journey perform. Journey's new lead singer was pretty good, but Heart really blew me away. I've found a new live music love. We went to the waterpark too, which was a ton of fun. Good company always makes for a good time :)
Last night the same four went to Biloxi to see Joan Jett & Def Leppard, which was an awesome show as well. Summer of '08 is now dubbed the 'Summer of Rock' as far as I'm concerned.
I'm pretty pumped about seeing my family this weekend for my graduation. If only I could see my sister and her family...I sure miss those kids. They should be back stateside next year!!
Hopefully I will find my 'big girl job' soon. I've been applying and applying and applying...but the market stinks right now, especially for those of us with little experience. Things happen for a reason though, right? I can't complain, I have an easy enough job that pays the bills and then some. Waitressing just kills my feet & knees...
