Dr. Hess has a big poodle named none other than...\"BobDog\"
Time for a twelve minute update!
I've been back at school for close to 24 hours now, and I have yet to see my roommate. A little odd? Yes. Jeannie CUT HER HAIR! I mean, not just cut it, CHOPPED IT OFF! She cut off 14 inches of hair. She cut off more than she has left on her head! It was insane. When I saw her, I about died. It looks awesome though, and she looks a lot older, if you ask me.
I was so glad to see everyone when I got here. I still haven't seen Peter though. Do you realize how badly this is killing me? I mean...he was stuck in some bad traffic in Pennsylvania last night, so he couldn't get here when he planned to. He got in at 1:30 in the morning, and he got to discover all of my goofy little notes that I left him all over his room. Hehe. So I'm hoping he'll get back before 5:30 so that I can run down there and see him before Jordan gets here and we go out to eat for dinner. I did get to see my darling Eric though, who shaved! I was kinda sad. The facial hair was really growing on me. But he said he might grow it back. He got to see Nina, so I was really happy for him in that regard.
Yesterday was the baby shower for Samantha. It was like a reuniting of the wedding. Me, Casie, Tracy, Erin, Angi, and Beth. Fun times. Erin kept Casie and I amused as usual. My sister has got to learn some tact...I mean really. There was this stuffed animal on one of the presents, and Casie was just like, "I don't like that. It's scary." And I was just like, "Shush, what if the lady sitting in front of us gave her that present?" I mean, honestly. But we had some food, good times. Samantha doesn't wear maternity clothes, which I find a little odd...but I guess she's not really that big, so whatever. Paige Marie Rutledge is due in one month from tomorrow! We're going to have a Christmas/New Year's baby! Yay! I love babies! Yesterday made me really want to have one...so Jordan...
My family and I went to SNS after we packed my ridiculous amount of stuff into the car. It was good. Our MALE WAITER's name was freaking CHEYENNE. Yes, that is a girl's name in my world. He was an odd one. I think he frightened my father.
I'm so busy now that I'm back here. Last night, I tried to work on my paper. Jeannie's mom gave us girls a present in the form of an adorable bear, as well as a Christmas tree for our room, which the three of us decorated last night. Fun times. I hung up our new door decoration outside, and I watched part of Kelly's (sp) Heroes with Eric for a while.
Today, I've worked on my research paper for most of the day. I actually went to all of my classes! I'm impressed with myself. Tomorrow, I will again be going to all of my classes, and hopefully finishing that darn research paper by 3:00. If not, then I will finish it on Wednesday. But Thursday, I'm going to none other than JASPER with Jeannie. We're going to surprise her sister at her winter performance thingy ma bob. It's going to be great. I don't know if we're going to spend the night or not. It's like a two and a half hour drive, so we'll see.
But Oprah is about to come on, and then I'm going to get myself ready for Jordan's arrival. Which will hopefully be fairly prompt, but that may be asking a little much of him. Hehe. Jeannie will be upset if he's late though because she DOES have a night class tonight. I'm serious, this girl is so against night classes, it's not even funny. I've never met someone that hates them so much. She could have gotten into one of her classes for next semester if she had taken a night class, but she refused. Silly girl. Oprah calls!
Love Always,
Alison
