Just when you thought it was over...

We're back! I'm sorry to tell you that not a whole lot has transpired (other than the normal) in the past few weeks. Today is just another Saturday (except that it's a three day weekend!). We didn't get going early enough today to make it to the Dallas branch of the Bulldog Nation football watching party, but maybe next week. It will be nice to be around some more dawg fans. Anyway, instead we are going to find an old movie to "rent" at the library and then join the horde of Saturday Wal-Mart shoppers to rustle up the ingredients for (I think) some chicken tortilla soup. Yum (I hope).
Otherwise, the beat goes on. Matt finished his take home final for Greek III and starts his first "real" semester next week (prayers appreciated). I am really liking my job so far and am still holding out hope that we will be able to find an affordable (read: dirt cheap but not too dirty) place closer to work to rent. Meanwhile, we are thankful for the ever-so-slight dip in gas prices this week.
Well, there you have it. All the news I can think of to post. Now if that doesn't make you want to come visit and get a sampling of the glamorous and heart-stopping lifestyle around here I don't know what would. The offer still stands: first visitors will receive an extra-special prize (TBD). Stay tuned...

So that's what happens... They move far away and fall of the the edge of the state of Texas and we never hear from them again. Sigh.

Alisha! It's been forever! I got back in touch with Crystal Clark recently and asked her for your info. I tried emailing you but she wasn't sure that was your current address, so I thought I'd drop you a line on here. Would love to catch up with you!! My email is MaureenUW@gmail.com I'm in NYC and have been here since college. Work in fundraising at an orchestra and still play the flute on the side. Drop me an email!! -Maureen (O'Brien)

I am beginning to think that it is over....
We are getting so excited about seeing you guys at Christmas! We were actually planning the progresive dinner today. So get ready to visit and eat until we can't stay up anymore.
