WOW. I have been getting emails about fotopage updates and have been so sad to not have any time to keep up with this site. FINALLY, though, it is summer. The fall semester was a piece of cake compared to the spring, where I was taking 19 credits as opposed to the usual 16, working 2 jobs, and dealing with one absolutely horrible class. It was called Mothers and Daughters, and I thought it would be a nice english elective to take (I am not even an english major) and would help me understand my relationship with my mother and all that fun stuff. It turned out to be about the depression of motherhood and the unhappiness and misery associated with being pregnant, as well as dealing with daughters' hatred of their mothers and the mothers' jealousy of their daughters. Possibly the most depressing stuff I have ever had to read.
Anyway, my dad and I recently ventured to Chicagoland for a two-day trip of memories. We lived in Arlington Heights from about '88 - '92. May 17th was my dad's 50th anniversary of his first baseball game so we went out to see the Yankees where they were playing the White Sox at US Cellular. The next day we went to Wrigley and saw the Cubs play the White Sox. We did some touring, visited our old house, my old school (where they actually remembered me!), and ate at some of our favorite old restaurants. We also saw this adorable goose family.
I really hope to keep my promise when I say I'm staying for good (at least for the summer, that is!) and that I'll keep up with posting. Until next time!
