Lots going on

Wow, it has been a week! I moved everything out of my apartment but my bed, some clothes and school stuff, kitchen stuff and the tv. It looks so strange, all empty and drab. Oh, well. Just enough to live off of for three weeks til I graduate. AGGGHHH! It's soooo close! It's weird, too, because the event for our class is this weekend, and that's it. We finish our project book and then it's over. Yikes.

My wedding dress came in! YAY!!! But I can't get it yet because my family went to Baltimore this week for a mission trip, so I have to wait to pick it up. And we got Ray's wedding ring! It makes it seem so much more real now, with only 84 days left and getting all these plans finalized. We've just about picked a place to live (do you realize how hard it is to find a place to live when you don't know where one person will be working and the other works 80 miles from Atlanta?), wedding planning is almost done, honeymoon's pretty much planned.

I feel so much more settled this week than last. I still have a lot to do, but all the anxiety about it is gone. I guess it's just because soooo much was going on last week and the stress that's left won't be piled on so much. I counted how many more times I have to drive back and forth, too. Three! Only three. Okay, maybe four. Next weekend before my family comes home the store where I got my dress is having a sample sale and I really want a way-too-expensive necklace. One. Trip to get my dress. Come back for a friend's b-day. Two, maybe three, depending on when my mom can go with me for the dress (can you tell I'm excited about that thing?). And then back home for good after graduation! Whoa!

Summer tv confession: I love random shows, especially in the summer. Sure, lots of people watch So You Think You Can Dance, but I love Army Wives. I have nothing in common with the lives of those people but its so good. I think I cry about every other episode (and I am not a cryer). And the really off one is The Secret Life of the American Teenager. It's done by the people who did Seventh Heaven. And it reminds me of it. Despite the pregnant 15-year-old, its seems wholesome. Please tell me someone else my age watches these shows. Great quote from Secret Life:
Dad: Now go away, or I'll pummel you.
Jerk Teenager: I though we were all Christians here.
Dad: Okay, fine I'm a Christian. I'll smite you, and then I'll pummel you.

Quality, people, quality.
