Guess Who's Back

I've had my time to relax and couldn't keep you waiting any longer.  This summer has not exactly been eventful (I would venture to guess that I've slept 70% of it) but this break from school and work has been quite pleasant.  Tuesday I headed back to Champaign for the second time already this summer.. I just can't stay away.  But yesterday Olivia officially registered as a U of I student so next time you see her, welcome her to the big leagues.  We're still trying to recruit Nolan; once we get him almost all of us will be bleeding orange and blue, we're just waiting to snag Grace.  While we were in Champaign we took care of some business (I am not a hit man or drug dealer) Olivia and I simply measured rooms in Phil's apartment to make sure we knew what we were getting.  After spending some quality time with Phil in his apartment, I could not be more excited to move in and everyone is welcome to come visit any time, only if bearing gifts that is (just kidding, but seriously I think we're still looking for a desk for my room...)  I plan on cooking often and have been getting in some quality practice here at home seeing as that my mom is back to being a working woman.  Any of you are welcome to dinner any day, we love company over here although don't mind my leftover college remnants in the living room because frankly I don't know where to put the stuff that won't fit in my room (I have yet to try putting it in my room but judging by the looks of it, I just know it won't fit.)  Maybe later this week I'll raffle off all my books and some laundry that I don't feel like doing.  Truthfully I think laundry is the worst, I would rather scrub a toilet than do laundry because just when you think you're done, you have to fold it all and put it away, buzzkill.  My family is on this p90x craze right now.  I am a little behind because I had a sinus infection (somewhat self diagnosed but the doctors believed me and gave me nasal spray, worked wonders.)  Now, I think I am a lot better and am going to take the plunge.  I actually did the first day but I've heard the second day is much worse so I'm taking some time to mentally (and physically) prepare for the worst.  This past weekend (Memorial Day, thanks to all the soldiers out there both active and veterans) Park Ridge hosted a soccer tournament and I worked it for a longgg time, aside from Sunday, that is, because of the torrential down pour so I made some decent money.  I'm thinking about taking the plunge and buying a pair of Sperry's.  I'm a tad nervous that the second I buy them they're going to go out of style and a new craze will take over but at least I know I will have worked hard (in the rain) for those shoes.  As of today that is pretty much all that's new with me.  I cleaned the bathroom (following up on my aspirations as a five year old to be a cleaning lady) and I actually still enjoy it sometimes (savor it roomies.)  I think I'm going to take my dog (Eleanor-shes getting gray and even white so with her old lady name comes old lady status) if anyone wants to join me they are more than welcome.  I've got to go enjoy this weather, long sleeves and shorts is the greatest outfit out there and it is perfect weather for it!  Good to be back and if you read all of this I commend you, have an awesome day my friends!
