Pretty Decent Weekend

All in all, Memorial Day weekend was pretty good. Amanda came down Friday night, and we spent all day Saturday walking around Ames. We probably (definitely) spent way too much money eating out, but we had a good time. Then Sunday, we went to my nephew’s graduation and open house. I at way too much [...]

Cry

Martina McBride’s cry seems to be hardly country at all. Still, it has a couple songs which still get to me. Even if they do get me down sometimes. I got 20 hours of work next week. Immagine that! I suppose I have 24 considering monday is a holiday and I’ll get 4 hours for [...]

Productive day

Wow, today was really productive for me. Let’s see.. I started out with a CS309 exam, which I think I did pretty well on. Well.. I hope so. Then I made 3 phone calls I’ve been meaning to make in a long time. I ordered Chanhassen tickets for July (got them for $30 less than [...]
