Well I moved to Tennessee! Drove down Monday from Maryland (did I mention I wanted to stab myself in the face while driving?) with the boys. They're staying until Saturday morning, and then driving back. I'm staying until July 21st (because I had to move my orientation date to July 20th GRR), and then driving home ( Read more... )

Went to work Christmas Eve, 3 to closing (left about 8:00). I was put on drive-thru, which isn't as bad as it used to be. I look forward to the occasional break from register and front centerpost ( Read more... )

Christmas Break started on Monday. Finally put the tree up and decorated it. Made chocolate chip cookies. Spent Tuesday at Sami's house, laughing hysterically at everything (I always feel so good with her). Today I had lunch with my dear, dear friend Zane (who may be more than my friend if things work out). I've learned to keep my relationships ( Read more... )

Yesterday I woke up at 6:30 AM so I could shower and get ready for my S.A.T.'s. It was a long, time consuming test and I hated it, but I feel pretty confident about it ( Read more... )

I woke early this morning, at least earlier than usual. I didn’t sleep much last night. Dad convinced me to go strawberry picking with him over at Quidas in Caroline County. I love Caroline berries, so I went without complaint. We met up with my Aunt Barbara, Aunt Jo, and cousin Mandy, and picked for about an hour and a half. Dad and I filled two 8 ( Read more... )

 I love the Zac Brown Band. From the first time I heard "Chicken Fried" on the radio, I've been hooked. They have become my anthem for freedom, my musical connection to Tennessee, and their songs always put a smile on my face when I'm having a bad day ( Read more... )

I got this! But first, you must know a few things:
1. I share a room with my brothers
2. Chris collects alcohol bottles, but as a rule to himself, he must drink the contents before he can claim the bottle.
3. On this particular night, Chris tried to drink a half-gallon of Jack. (See #2)

One night last summer, Chris and Mike stumbled into the house, ( Read more... )

 Last night Jim's older brother, my hero, Shady Higgins, was hit by an oncoming car that had swerved into his lane ( Read more... )

 Yesterday was awesome. I woke up around 11:30, showered, and Nick took me to Target. I bought new flip-flops (yeah, I didn't buy the Alabama ones), and then at 3 Dad took me to Robby's house. His oldest sister was home from college for the weekend (she studies cosmetology), and I agreed to let her work on me. She did my eyebrows (which I've never ( Read more... )
