7 Quick Takes

— 1 — I've been in a writing slump lately, but I'm still around snooping out your blogs. I finally got off my butt (or on my butt, actually, since I sit down to type) and finished posting about my travels in Arkansas. Just in time for my travels in Oregon at the end of this month with my mom!
— 2 —My husband is turning 30 - THIRTY - on Monday. So glad I am still 24, he likes to call me his young wife. Thirty is a pretty big birthday, and I hope I am able to make it fun! He's got lots of presents, and we are going out to lunch tomorrow with his family, dinner with friends that night, and then hopefully my family on Sunday. If nothing else, he will be well fed.
— 3 —I was about to write about how much I love having my cup of coffee when it's nice and cold outside, but then I took a sip of it...and my mind said "Soap?" because that was kind of the flavor I got. Hmmm. Pretty sure I used Gingerbread.
 — 4 —I tried to go jogging about 2 weeks ago. By tried, I mean I did actually go with my husband and I did jog between bouts of walking. And I've pretty much been in bed ever since then. Apparently UC and jogging do not mix. Lesson (painfully) learned. — 5 — I only take photos at the Zoo. It's better than no photos, right?
— 6 —I am officially planning the Bachelorette Party for my friend Jennifer - we are headed to Las Vegas June 1-3. World, you have been warned.
 — 7 —It's rained here the last 2 days - this morning we were woken up by lightning flashes and the sounds of thunder shaking our bedroom window. It is currently blowing like a tempest outside, and is 46 degrees. Did I mention this apartment has no insulation? I think I need another pair of socks.
