Stoop Kid

EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!!!

Could it be true?  I have completed my last 'real' final exam of my graduate career!!  This is a BIG deal as it puts me one step closer to moving to Wilmington.  Though I have been nothing but excited, with the big move less than 2 weeks away, I am starting to get cold feet.  Greenville has been my home for the last 6 years (1/4 of my life).  I'm a little afraid to leave my nice comfy stoop.  Also, considering the fact that I will be doing clinical fieldwork for the next 6 months, I am getting worried about being POOR (or poorer than I already am) and STINKY just like Stoop Kid.  I can probably take care of the stinky part, but I will definitely be poor.  Oh, I can't wait to make real money! 

Even though I am experiencing cold feet, Sophie is fully prepared for coastal living in her new life jacket! Doesn't she look thrilled?


We got this little number at PetSmart.  I did alot of research for this purchase because, as you may notice, weenies are an odd size and shape.  Most life jackets looked like they would be too short for her long body, but this one fits nicely.  I did go a size up from the recommended weight because of her ample chest and long weenie body. It fits her perfectly and she is ready to go boating!!

I am officially a 'blogger'.  I must admit that I have never understood the idea of blogging.  What do these people have to talk about and why do they think that others actually care?

...This blog is the result of my lifetime struggle with a serious condition called PROCRASTINATION.  I need to be studying and/or packing...recently I have been reminded by my mother that I need to do my taxes.  Are these due soon? Apparently so. 
     I am infamous for doing 'strange' things when I am supposed to be studying.  My dear roommates in undergrad still discuss the night that they walked in on me after I had taken my colored markers and proceeded to tattoo my arms, belly, and legs.  On another occasion, they found me typing a paper while donning gloves, crazy hair, and numerous other random accessories. SHOUTOUT to my FISHY!! 
     As a graduate student, I have matured a great deal.  My 'strangeness' has turned into the creation of a blog.  I guess that isn't really that strange after all. 

I am going to get back to studying, but first I am going to enjoy my classy, mature dinner.   Please be jealous.
