Lately

Lots of exciting things have been occuring in October!

1. EMT class - making study guides and learning how to take a blood pressure.  Not to mention awaiting a pink stethoscope in the mail.

2. NSP 18 - No Seizure Party in California this year!  Lots of family, friends, food (COOKIES), and being thankful for the health of my mom (and everyone else too).

3.  Halloween package from Mom and Dad.  The candy and dried mango is almost gone.  I hope I don't get any trick or treaters this year.  I'll just turn off all the lights and sit in silence, hoping no one knocks on my door on Oct. 31.

4.  Audiobooks!  As the school year has begun for UCD, I find myself working alone, catching up on some repetitive easy tasks (I am SOOOOOOO not complaining I love it).  But to avoid listening to only the storage freezer for 8 hours in a row, I listened to some audiobooks, including 1984, The Metamorphosis, and Anna Karenina.

5.  Running with Erin!  I made a joke to my student assistant that I had to go "run errands" after work one Friday afternoon.  But that actually meant running with Erin.  We are getting in shape and justifying the consumption of our Halloween candy.  And Yoloberry frozen yogurt.  And Jamba Juice.  And probably some milkshakes in the future.

6.  Can these be my Halloween costume?  The two pictures on the left are a work of artistic genius by Robby, Samantha's bf.  The picture on the right is my new Cheshire Cat mug from Disneyland.
