Make a mind picture and I'll catch you on the flip-side!

I enjoyed sleeping-in this morning and didn't even mind venturing out into the rain for 30 minutes on Census duties.
In the afternoon I got in some over-due Quality Time with my roommate. While brief, it was time well spent. Additionally I decided that I had time enough to bake cookies. I am really starting to get the knack of this recipe!
My evening on the Plaza was a delight! A movie at the Plaza theater, (I kept an eye out for familiars, but did not encounter any), dinner at Blanc, and good company.
A safe drive home, despite conditions, and a cozy evening in to round out the day.
Now for some sleep, perhaps accompanied by the sounds of a passing storm.

High-Dr8!

A full day, pep-talks throughout kept me going.
Most of what I had going on I was genuinely excited about, but so much of it and it starts to feel obligatory, leaving me a bit anxious. Still, when I actually get around to things, I find I tend to enjoy myself.

I'm very excited about participating in the Student Theater organization on campus. This photo is of our President from the meeting today.

Got a few hours in at work and had a nice chat with my new supervisor.
Celebrated Amanda and Brett's graduation in the evening with more libations all around than we are accustomed to. *hic* Now, for some sleep!

Gifts

Had me a hankerin' for some grits, so I called up my Jessica and we got us some down-home cookin' at the Cracker Barrel! Mmm-mmm! Sweet tea too!

In the evening I was fortunate to join with good people to celebrate my friend Lynnea as she is soon to be married!

The stars were out on my drive home. Hello friends!

Kansas is a good place to raise children...and Cain!

I'm listening as rain falls torrentially and thunder booms at irregular intervals. Kansas storms are so exciting, but also a comfort. They seem to mirror my personality to a 'T'! I'm also drinking tea, so it all works out.

Another amazing day all-in-all. I am so pleased to be a student. Doing my student thing and enjoying my 'process', etc. It is a little known fact that I was born on 'The Day of The Good Life', and days like this affirm that fact!
My good pal Jessica surprised us with fresh cream puffs from the culinary dept. here on campus! They were delish and we reveled in her generosity. I managed to make a fine mess with mine, a testament to how much I enjoyed it!


After a quick rehearsal for her Honors piece I went to Chipotle with Jess for lunch, then followed it up with a bit of shopping. Shopping is one of those 'girl things' that I do not actually enjoy, so having a friend along really helps. Back at school we had fun performing our scene, with a pause to run in the rain.

This amazing Kansas storm accompanied me home and it looks like a stormy night is ahead for me to enjoy!

Defeating the Retro-Grade!

The good times just kept on rolling today. I saw so many wonderful people and interacted with them in positive ways! From school mates to roommates, to neighbors and coworkers.

I sat in on the Movement Final, here pictured with Sammi is so ecstatic as a fighting-bride and Amanda's zombie cameo is, well, to die for? What ever the case- love it!

This was also a day of balance, which always feels good. I got some quality time in at the gym and ate a brownie for dessert, win!
