I feel like a bad blogger as my birthday and Thanksgiving have come and gone without documentation. However, life's been busy and school is making me crazy. Anyway, I went to Atlanta for my birthday as Bryan has quit coming to Tallahassee for games. Plus, for once I was working while he wasn't. We spent the weekend chillin' in his tiny apartment and eating and drinking to our hearts content. Had fun with our IDs in the liquor store when the cashier saw that our birthday is the same. ;-) Talked to him today and he said that he now has a job and offers for a real job in either St. Pete or Atlanta. I just hope he gets a real job period, as he'll get sick of retail quickly.
As for Thanksgiving, it was busy. Took Wednesday off and went to Mobile, where I got a belated birthday celebration. Bryan and I went out, but no sweets were had until I got to Mobile. I got Vera Bradley stuff as well as money and a doormat and FSU banner from the 'rents. And then I was asked two days later for a Christmas list, sigh. However, I went back to Tallahassee on Friday to work and then go to Gainesville. Tailgating with Gators isn't bad, but hearing "UF reject" chants and jingling keys as well as "Goodbye" was a bit much after the disaster of a game. And the news the next day that Tebow played the second half with a broken hand was just salt in the wound. I told Sara after FSU won both basketball games that our good sports karma was probably used up, but I didn't want to be right. Now we have another less than satisfactory season almost over, lousy bowl game yet to be played.
As for why I've been busy, aside from work, it's almost finals and I have three papers due next week plus a take-home final the following week. My research paper isn't coming together well and one of my historiographies I think she wanted more sources despite my submitting ten for a 12-15 page paper. The other historiography I'll be selecting books for tomorrow and it's due a week from then. Argh, I'm not a robot and I don't type at light speed. Here's hoping I can get them finished.
