spring is here!

a very inspiring bug once said, "tra-la-la spring is in the air. and i am a flower. with nothing interesting to say." well spring is in the air. well sorta? minus the wind yesterday and today. and lack of sun. but it rained!

              as for being a flower? sure. and as for having nothing interesting to say? not a chance. unlike Slim, i have a few interesting things to say. the good. the bad. and the ugly.

the good.
    i got a salad bar to-go from brick oven yesterday. i thought i'd finally use a gift-card i found in my wallet. turns out there were 6 whole dollars on it!
          so, needless to say my salad bar was free and i still had some mulah left over.  although i try to avoid brick oven as much as possible on my day off, the salad bar was indeed a GOOD choice.

other good news. well. I'M GETTING MARRIED IN 15 14 1/2 DAYS!! this is definitely a good thing. i am so ready to get married. practically everything is ready and all i have to do is get all prettied-up the day it comes!

the bad.
        finals are about here and i don't feel quite ready for some of them. also, i've missed math 3 days in a row! the first day, that was my bad. (the weather was just too good.) but the last 2 days are because i haven't been feeling well at all. i hope this goes away SOON!

now, for the ugly.
    i mentioned that spring is in the air. which means lots and lots of pollen. did i mention i'm allergic to pollen? well it was certainly in the air when the following event occured:

here's a pic. but don't look too long. haha

as Adrian Monk would say, "here's what happened:"

        i went for a run outside.

   and then the swelling just started to appear.

                  but all is well.

 i took some medicine and the swelling went down a few hours later.

          but oh man, was it ugly! haha
