Slackerville September

Hi my name is Fiona and I am a slacker. That felt good to get off my chest. Now onto the happenings. I have officially survived the first month of school! It was bumpy between ordering books late (please read my first sentence), changing my calculus class on the first day, and then having to readjust to my new 8am class. Now I am in the full swing of things I can say so far so good and I love it. Michael has re-graced me with my sandbagger status after stressing over my first calculus test and receiving a 99%, only to then complain that I knew 100% was within my grasp.

Michael has been preparing to "get his guns up" after nailing his recent interview with Texas Tech Pharmacy College. Being the supportive human that I am I went with him, not in a creepy over protective mom way but just to drop him off as I check out my prospective new town of Abilene Texas. Its a great blue collar town, that carries the mist of its hey day. I occupied my day with walking the abandoned town, and touring a 1930's, haunted may I add movie theater before picking Michael back up. I could tell he loved it there. For the two hour car journey home I listened to stories of the school and how amazingly technologically advanced it was, how nice the students and staff were and how excited he would be to be accepted. I couldn't be prouder.

We also have hit wedding season in our not so tiny anymore town! There are few things I love more than free food, friends and dancing but when you through a photo booth in the mix, it suddenly becomes a second birthday for me. This weekend we prepare for another (hopefully photobooth too) wedding,
Michael and I

We have also been spoiled by being gifted suite seats to the Cowboys football game from Michael's work. It pays to know someone, and like I said you cant beat free food and friends. This is truly my favorite time of year, Fall couldn't have come soon enough. It may still be 90 degrees in Fort worth but I have my fall decor out and pumpkins at the ready! And for those of you who read my blog I did survive the brewery tour day and feel beyond lucky to have these cool people in my life.
