Spring break was -- amazing. I went through that whole lobster stage, and now I'm definitely into the brown and peeling phase. That's life, you know. You burn and it's painful; then you recover and you look a little different than you did before.
Emily and I did a whole lot of nothing. We sat on the beach and hung out with her family and ate lots of good food. South African, seafood, Columbian? The restaurant was called Columbia, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's Columbian, now does it? Poor Emmy. She had to go to bed and get up early because of field experience. That is not a nice way to start the first day of classes after spring break.
Yesterday Katie, Ryan, Ben and I went shopping in Cincinnati after church. I finally had money for Emily's birthday present, so I got her stuff at Newport on the Levee in Kentucky. I hadn't been there for over a year; I'd forgotten how beautiful it is on the bridge. We ate at a Cold Stone Creamery, for the second time in my life, and it was even better the second time, I think. I need to go visit BP in Colorado so I can eat lots of ice cream.
Or not. The extra pounds are scaring me already.
So now I'm supposed to be cleaning my room and I did. A little bit. It's a work in progress.
Sort of like me.
