Tomorrow: nap time. After four classes and some homework...
What a day!
...What a week!
A quick teaser: I have AMAZING news. But I want to accompany it with pictures (here). So we'll wait until I'm more coherent, THEN tackle the wonderfulness. :)
Spring break was really, REALLY nice... a nice break from the rush of school. It felt a little surreal going home this time, even though at didn't at Christmas... I think it might have been the absence of a major holiday, like Christmas (I'm excluding St. Patty's day from that category, even though I love you Irish blokes). I guess I'll go through a quick recap - VERY quick.
FRIDAY: Went to Kelsey's play. She died one scene before the end of Act I. People cried. I was distressed. BUT - everyone did wonderfully! Hurrah, LNE Play-ers! Hung out with Cree, Cle, Justin, Blair, and Dallas... hurrah, Sonic - and didgeridoos!
SATURDAY: Ate brunch with the Woodheads (even Courtney!) and Mark Marcuson. So, SO wonderful to see them again and get to chat - my goal this week was to get to spend time with the people who - basically - raised me, physically and spiritually, and I got to! GAVE KELSEY HER JELLO-ENCASED MUG! Hurrah!
SUNDAY: Church. YAY! Jumped around with Brucey and the gang. Lunch with Cree at Chili's, met some Nebraska Chi Alpha folks (even Kyle, who's from MN! It's like we traded or something!)
MONDAY: Ate breakfast at Gma and Gpa's townhouse (with Dad, of course!)... mmm... bacon-egg-mcmuffin-things... :) Hung out with my mom, who was really, really sick :( Made a grocery store run. Took a nap. Missed four calls within two hours. Ate with Gma and Gpa again, this time at Valentino's... mmm... Italian buffet! Went and visited Cree late at night at her temporary house. Met Carissa & Sheila. Ate girl scout cookies.
 TUESDAY: 80 degrees! Found a bunch of my old journals. Went on a solo outing to Pioneer's Park. Visited the Nature Center I loved when I was a kid. Took a walk. Did some soul-searching. Decided I might make it after all.
WEDNESDAY: Lunch with Brucey & Co. at Noodles... mmm... mac'n'cheese. ROCK SOLID! So great to worship with all those kids again. Testimony party at Cree's, hurrah!
THURSDAY: Ate lunch with the Riddles at Lazlo's - came away with GREAT advice, and an e-mail address! The Office was a re-run. Phbbt. Finished last bit of homework (I KNOW!).
FRIDAY: Met Barb for Brunch (Kelsey too!) at the Green Gateau. Bought some sweet shades (and a headband!) at Target with Kelsey. Ate Mexican cornbread (YUM). "Granny-ified" myself. Went to Brita and Anna's timely Halloween dance. Was suprised by the appearance of Matt and Brita! Yay!
SATURDAY: Woke up earlier than originally intended... v. strange. Laundry. Cleaning. Packing. Played Jeux D'eau [probably] the best I've played it yet. Kelsey's track meet (GOOOOO Rockets!). Haircuts with Hanna. More packing. CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE! Cranium night with dear old friends, with complimentary veggie chips and bean soup. :) A quick visit to Ellen (and Sammy).
SUNDAY: Forgot to set alarm. Still made it to first service! Church - wonderful as usual. Had Christine Cornwell & Cree pray over me before I headed back. Laughed with the Bobs. Drank apple cider. Ate Reubens. Drove to Omaha. Flew (all of 45 minutes...!). Heard the AMAZING story (take one) from Mike on the way home. Heard full version of the AMAZING story AT Chi Alpha from Stas. So happy! Prayed. Ate cake for Mike's birthday. Got excited with Teresa and Heather about next year. Obtained a new role: media specialist (?).
And now, MONDAY. Sleep. I can unpack tomorrow....
