I love technology!

I love technology. I love facebook and blogger for allowing me to keep up with all that is going on in the live's of people I love. I noticed the other day on facebook that one of my many former college roommates was taking "vacation" time to study for an exam. An exam?! She's back in school? I didn't know that. So I quickly write on Ms. Jenna Hess' wall to see what gives. Turns out the showoff is working full-time and taking a class at Northwestern! Psh! I was really excited for her. I am still getting over the shock that she is an accountant, too. Who would have ever guessed that we'd both be number crunchers?! (You'd find it a lot more odd if you ever met Jenna, she's a TRIP!) Anyway, I love knowing what is going on with her. I cannot imagine being from a time without the internet. Do you know that people used to have to go to the library to do research? Can you even imagine?! (I do still have one prof who swears the internet will die and makes us go to the library- ugh!)

I love knowing the my friend Megan (the Marine wife from my previous post) is getting to go to Virginia tomorrow to spend a few weeks with her parents before Kyle comes home from deployment. Call me nosy, but I like to know what is going on.

I like seeing pictures of my friends from high school who now have babies (I cannot imagine!) and all of that fun stuff. I also like to see photos from my single friends who still think they're in college. ;) I just love it. Hearing from Jenna the other day made my week! Isn't it funny how that works?

In other exciting news, my Uncle Duane has come through and gotten Jackson and I front row seats to the IU game on Saturday. Look out, Assembly Hall, here we come in our Crean & Crimson t-shirts! :) I am pretty excited! We LOVE IU basketball. The ticket sales this year have dropped a ton and I blame that on fair-weather fans. If you can't love 'em when they're losing get off the boat people! And of course the tickets become more readily available and cheaper when I leave the state. GRR. End of rant. :)

Jackson is so excited to head home. It is really quite cute. I haven't let myself get excited as my parents are really too busy with their move to hang out with us much.

The verdict from the plasma comments: no go. It was my idea to make a little extra cash around the holidays, but Jackson hates needles and their hours don't work with his work schedule. I am certainly not hanging out with the alkis and homeless people alone. (No offense to alkis or homeless people, I have a real heart for you, but one cannot be too careful.) I guess I'll think of another way to make some cash! Ideas? :)
