We're half awake in a fake empire.

Totally overplayed, but swine flu. Am I supposed to be worried? Because I'm not. I'm just really annoyed at all of the fear mongering. I'll probably jinx myself, but I do not think I have ever had the flu...nor have I been vaccinated for it ever. I have colds like twice a year. I shake my kids' hands every morning after they wipe their runny noses and stick their fingers who knows where. I have a pretty kick-ass immune system. Ha. I'm not running around with a mask anytime soon. But I also will not be going to Mexico anytime soon:)

Chase has been sick vomiting and bloody stool. Yum. Second time in month and a half. I feel like such a bad mom. No kids of mine are getting sick! Of course I take him to the vet because if I don't, he'd probably die and I'd feel really guilty. But it costs $200 each time. Geez. And today the microscope examination cost $50...she said "I'm going to look at this under the microscope" and doesn't bother to tell me I'll have to pay her for her time. Ugh, so annoying.

Okay, getting excited for my birthday tomorrow (kinda). It's supposed to rain, of course, and I have ANOTHER sick one so maybe Jake will be my date:) 

Off to finish my lab and watch beisbol! 

It's been too long...

23 days left of school, but who's counting?! Yikes! A few weeks into my chemistry class. So far, so good. We've mostly been working on math, which I'm not too bad at, so I've got an A! Ha. Hopefully it lasts! This class is less stressful!

I'm excited for my birthday this weekend. Sort of. Is your life what you expected to be at 27, or whatever age you may be? I don't really know what I had envisioned at this point...I don't know that I actually ever did. I don't feel as old at 26 and 360 days as I thought I would, which I guess is good!

I'm getting very excited for my summer schedule, although, a little nervous! I'm sure that will pass after the first day. 

Some other things I'm looking forward to are San Diego to see the DBacks and relax, as well as my step-brother's wedding. Otherwise that's about it.

Dear Chase, 

Please stop getting sick. I can't afford you.

All my love, 

M.
