southern weather

guess what i did today? that's right, i went with my g-parents to the cemetery to buy their grave plots. exciting? not so much. :) but it was certainly an interesting experience.

i also went to wally-world and bought the academy is...'s "santi" and the almost's "southern weather." been listening to them since dinner and they're incredible.

speakin' of southern weather, it's been schizophrenic lately. usually beautiful, sunny, and hot during the day, with cool thunderstorms at night. we've had so much rain recently our basement flooded. fun.

but even tho it's annoying and the dog goes crazy every time the thunder sounds, southern weather does make for some beautiful pictures.
case in point, I just shot these from my front porch about 5 minutes ago:

i got some interesting news today that i hope really comes about. i won't say anything at the moment in case i can't do it, but it involves traveling to distant lands and long plane rides and longer layovers in strange airports...

not much else to say. paris is back in jail, thank god. drama drama drama!

i've been reading james lately. i'm rather proud of myself. i'm not one to remember to do my daily devos.

i've also been writing. at the moment, i'm working on a story that i started this past march. i'm thinking about writing a couple short stories; i've got quite a few ideas. but what i put on paper never reads like the story in my head. i'd love to get published, but i'm too pessimistic. even tho that's my life dream and what i've been aiming for since i started college.

geeze, i wish i was a wealthy heiress who never had to work. i could make a cd and people would actually buy it even tho i can't sing to save myself!
