so if you see me dancing down the street, you'll know why

some thoughts have been stirring around in this head of mine.

blogging can be amazing. it is actually, most of the time. but it's also terrifying. because you're just putting words and pictures and videos out on the internet for people to take however they please.

and what if, what if, what if?

so, i'm working on it.

because we can't all just be like katie and throw it all out there, you know? ;)

in the meantime, i leave you with my summer anthem:

softball 2.0

we're two games into our second season of softball and here's the thing- it's fun. it really is. but they have me in the outfield (because i'd get killed if i was playing infield) and how in the heck do you catch a fly ball? like honestly, i want to know. i cannot judge them for the life of me. i'll see the hit and it's coming right for me and then oops it's over my head and at the fence.

in case you're having a hard time picturing that, i have a drawing for you:

^^don't worry guys, we have four people in the outfield and i'm in left center. standing in the right place is the one thing i've got DOWN!^^

i have to apologize every week to whoever they put next to me in left field because they end up doing a lot of running [and catching and throwing really far, cause if i somehow manage to get the ball, the shortstop has to come halfway into the outfield to be my cutoff]. if it's on the ground and in front of me, i'm totally good. but anything in the air is a definite no-go for me.

but i still try. and i'm positive i look like an idiot trying to figure out where it's gonna land when i'm like 10 feet off and everyone is probably thinking, "is she even going to try?" when i really, truly am.

so let's just all hope and pray and our kids get jeremy's athleticism, k?

i can't help myself.

the most wonderful time of the year

it's my favorite month of the year, everyone.

i don't know what it is, but i always get so excited when may rolls around.

[that's a lie, it's because my birthday is in two weeks

and husband's is ten days after mine].

but even without that, it's when school ends and summer really begins. and even though i'm not in school, j is and his last final is on monday. we're pretty excited about it [and he's taking the summer off for the first time ever]! and all you heat-hating whiners out there can call me crazy all you want but summer is the best season! don't even try to argue with me on that one. hot>cold. always.

we don't really have any big travel plans for summer, but if we want to keep up our pattern of vacationing every three months, we'll be going somewhere in june.

oh, and remember the nightmare it was for us to get home from hawaii? the airline gave us a nice little credit so now we really will have to go somewhere or it'll go to waste.

bummer ;)

in other news,

somehow we sold jer's frontier and bought a tacoma

i think he might love it more than he loves me ;)
