Yeah, you like my childish subject line? Very nice, I thought so too. My brain feels like it's about to explode right now. It's taking every ounce of self-control that I have not to pick up the chair next to me and throw it across the lounge while screaming at the top of my lungs. Heh. No, I'm not mad or anything. It's just been a crazy stressed out day, that's all. Want to hear about it? Good, cuz I'm going to tell you.

First of all, I'd like to say that my weekend was great. Caleb and I left early Friday morning for Lancaster, PA. My Grandma and most of my mom's family live there, and my family was there on their spring break. We hung out with family, ate lots of food, and pretty much just relaxed for a few days. Wonderful. I even got a nice vintage (but working great!) Singer sewing machine, a toaster, and a bunch of great records from a garage sale (including Bon Jovi's "Slippery When Wet", Barry White's "Greatest Hits", David Bowie's "Changes: 1 and 2", and this live festival record that has everything from Lou Reed to Miles Davis on it). My Grandma and everyone loved Caleb, and we had a lot of fun.

We drove home yesterday, bringing my brother with us. He's staying for a few days to check out the school and then taking a train back on Thursday morning (at 5 am, yuck! and I get to drive...). Last night was fine too, we made pizza when we got back and watched "Almost Famous" for the upteenth time.

And then today. Today was just insane. I have stuff due in every class, Caleb found out he has a research paper that was due this morning, there are tons of details regarding Culture Shape that need to be worked out before it happens on Monday, I'm working tonight when I wish I could be at Caleb's choir concert, Caleb and I are both working on Friday and he's supposed to play a concert with Gunsmoke and I really wanted to go so I could hear their great new drummer, I have a term paper due next week, I'm trying to get my brother to the right places, I still haven't heard from the insurance people about the whole incident with my car and this stupid "Manny" guy, I'm running low on money, and exams are coming up in another week or two. Ugh.

Plus, I don't know if I'll be in Florida this summer. I was supposed to be living with Nanny, but she's having some health complications and it's looking more and more like that won't work out. So I won't have anywhere to live. So...I think I'm going to have to spend the summer in Michigan. I really realy don't want to do that. I was so excited about getting a job in St. Augustine and hanging out with the girls and with Caleb and Luke and everyone. And now...now I'll just have another boring summer in Detroit, where most of my friend work full-time all the time and live too far away to do anything with. Last summer was boring and bad. It really was. I know that God has a plan and a purpose, and if I'm supposed to be in Detroit, then I am, but darnit....I really want to be in Florida! :(

So the added burden of all that is kinda bugging me lately too. I need to go somewhere and just collapse for a while. Bleh. So if anyone happens to pray for me, just for a few seconds, I'd appreciate it. Let me know and I'd be more than happy to do the same for you--I know how the end of the semester is for everyone. Not a fun thing.
