paying $100,000 to read, write, and not sleep. excellent choice.

at the request of hotpantsTM, i'm interrupting my regularly scheduled case briefing and reading to bring you this blog post.  brief as it may be, it's still a post (with pictures, mind you) nonetheless.*

so here's the deal: my life is cuh-razy and i am bizzzay (that's crazy and busy, just in case you had trouble discerning my dirty street lingo).  let me break it down like this - i recently posted this on surferwoman's facebook wall:

yes, i already know - there is a disgusting typo in there.  the word "about" is supposed to be "AMOUNT" as in "amount of reading."  gahhh, i'm a failure.

so that's it in a grammatically incorrect facebook post - i've been ridic busy reading my life away.  kind of weird that i'm paying over $100,000 to read for hours on end (somehow have to remember and apply, more importantly, all of it).

and just because i know how much all of you freaky voyeurs like pictures, here's my desk - in shambles and unorganized omg:



and this is what bailey does while i study:



see, so there you have it, i'm a busy busy bee!  a busy bee who misses and loves all of you and will definitely make the rounds to read your blogs and catch up in y'all's lives in my "spare" time!
in other news, i start teaching 11th grade girls sunday school tomorrow which i'm super stoked about!  and quasi has an MMA fight tonight in vegas.  i'm a littttle nervous to say the least.  i'll let you know how it all goes down.  i'm bummed i couldn't be there to watch and support him, but mandatory law school orientation kind of cramped my style.

*have you ever thought it's weird that "nonetheless" is all one word?  i mean really, it's three separate words in one to build one mega run-on word.  weird.  or maybe not.

remember me??

 
my loverlies.  you may or may not remember me.  let's get re-aquainted, since i know some of you feel like orphan children (i'm talking to you, surferwoman and jessypants).  i left for camp and have since been on sabbatical from blogging for a few weeks.  it wasn't really planned, it kind of just happened.

i've been going through a lot of life changes recently, and quite honestly, i'm having trouble keeping up with them myself.  in the past three weeks, i have grown and become strengthened in ways i never thought possible.  

i'm not intentionally being vague, i'm just still feeling both overwhelmed and incredibly excited about the amazing things God has for me in my life.  pretty much everything that could change in a person's life has changed, so i just need to get my bearings again.

just yesterday in fact, i told the CEO of my company that my last day of employment with them would be at the end of this month.  i'll begin law school mid-august.  i am hastily helping them find an amazing replacement.  this next couple of weeks will probably prove to be a whirlwind, but i approach these changes with open arms.  my faith has been renewed and strengthened and my course in life has been set.

thank you all for your sweet messages.  i promise not to leave again without warning!!

x's and o's to you all.
