tree choppin'
So. Currently my life has been REALLy busy...
Some time when it slows down I'll have time for a real update, but until then I'll just state that i am done with school, I work part-time at my dad's office, I've been hanging out with friends nearly every day lately XD, and life for me has been really good.
Love to all.
(I'll give a real update soon)
p.s. I'm going to visit my cousin for a week and a half in August. I can't wait!

so. Just thought i'd update to say that i currently miss my best friends alot. But. Not too bad. Fortunately I'll be able to see some of 'em soon.
My mom's best friend from high school is coming into town, and will be staying with us for the weekend! :) We'll probably go to the Frio on Sunday, so I'll miss you guys at church.
And my cousins wedding was amazing! For those of you that don't know, we went to Dallas this past weekend for my cousins wedding. She was beatiful! The groom is an amazing guy, and we're so excited about adding him to our family! Anyway...while i was there, another one of my cousins (Brandi, the oldest cousin and the first one married, with a baby) invited me to stay with her this summer up in Athens. I know i won't be able to stay with her the entire summer, but i'll probably go for a few weeks in July. I'm really excited about doing that! :)
Other than that, i really don't have any other news. I'm still not done with school. but thats nothing new....
so yeah.
i guess that will be all...for a while.
signing out...
*EDIT*
Oh yeah! I totally forgot! My birthday is tomorrow...I'll finally be a legal adult! Whoop!

The Unknown Citizen
The Unknown Citizen (To JS/07/M/378 This Marble Monument Is Erected by
the State)
He was found by the Bureau of Statistics to be
One against whom there was no official complaint,
And all the reports on his conduct agree
That, in the modern sense of an old-fashioned word,
he was a saint,
For in everything he did he served the Greater
Community.
Except for the War till the day he retired
He worked in a factory and never got fired,
But satisfied his employers, Fudge Motors Inc.
Yet he wasn't a scab or odd in his views,
For his Union reports that he paid his dues,
(Our report on his Union shows it was sound)
And our Social Psychology workers found
That he was popular with his mates and liked
a drink.
The Press are convinced that he bought a paper
every day
And that his reactions to advertisements were
normal in every way.
Policies taken out in his name prove that he was fully insured,
And his Health-card shows he was once in hosp-
ital but left it cured.
Both Producers Research and High-Grade
Living declare
He was fully sensible to the advantages
of the Installment Plan
And had everything necessary to the Modern Man,
A phonograph, a radio, a car and a frigidaire.
Our researchers into Public Opinion are content
That he held the proper opinions for he
time of year;
When there was peace, he was for peace; when there
was war, he went.
He was married and added five children to
the population,
Which our Eugenist says was the right number
for a parent of his generation.
And our teachers report that he never inter-
fered with their education.
Was he free? Was he happy? The question is absurd:
Had anything been wrong, we should certainly have heard.

Give My Regards To Broadway!....
Lets see.
Where did I end off? oh yes. the bird.
Well…
Tuesday morning I went to work a food show with my Mom and Dad. Worked alllllll daaayyyy loooonng, walking or standing on concrete. Not fun. My feet don’t like me much cause of that. Oh well.
Halfway through the morning, Jo calls me to tell me that the bird has died, and she and the kiddos dressed up in mourning clothes and had a nice funeral in the back yard. yeah. :(
After working my behind off, mom and I went to get mom a pair of jeans, while we waited for my dad and his coworkers to load a truck, then we met my dad at his office, and then we went out to eat at Macaroni Grill. Pretty good evening. :)
Yesterday, I woke up, went to the gym, and did school. Then I went to see the dress rehearsal of Peter Pan, ‘cause I won’t be able to see my old drama group perform this weekend. The dress rehearsal was…..ok. The scene changes took way to long, and Hannah accidentally broke a lamp during one of the changes. But, surprisingly, Mrs. Miller didn’t freak out or anything. so yeah. The actual performance was pretty good, and Rachel does a fantastic job as Peter! :)
Today. I am going to go to a friends house to design my graduation announcements. woop! ’08! :D
Tomorrow. I’m cleaning the house and making my brothers favorite meal for dinner, ‘cause its his 5th birthday!! :D
Saturday. I’m doing school in the morning, then meeting Christine and Heather to go and take senior pics in the afternoon, then going to pick up Jo, then going to see you awesome people perform Pride and Prejudice!!! :D so Saturday should be my highlight of…..this month! :D
so yeah. that’s a recap of my life as of recently, and a short summary of what it will be for the next few days….hope you enjoyed. :)
Good Night, Gracie!
