Highlights of Home

I just helped my mom empty the fridge - we are getting a new one on Saturday. There were things in there from my freshman year of college - no joke.

Earlier, I was hooking Asher to the back line because there was a nice man doing some work in the house who is afraid of him. I took him off leash for one second - in that second he tore (literally) off to the front of the house, ran in through the garage door and over to my mom. When I went to get him he ran back out of the garage door and then poked his nose at the front door as if it was where I had left him.

tomorrow is my first day of school at school (i had 2 classes up at Kutz yesterday as part of the opening retreat)

Now I need to finish unpacking boxes of books and get them onto shelves . . . there's still one box that hasnt made it - this makes me sad.

an update

Asher and I are clearly still in love
all but 2 of my boxes have made their way from the west coast (luckily that means that i still havent had to unpack)

Shaving

I shaved my legs yesterday in preparation for having to shave on Wednesday.
Im wearing a skirt to "graduation" and my aunt would flip a SHIT if my legs werent shaved.

It feels weird.

It really is a silly custom. Way too much work. Oh well. (shaving, not graduation)

Wew

windshield replaced. looks VERY pretty.

I got a picture of my car's mileage at 58000 today. I cant wait til it hits 60000 somewhere in the midwest. i bet it'll be sean driving and he wont even notice and then ill be sad.

bringing the pepe man into the car dealer tomorrow to get spruced up for the ride. show me the money!
