Inspiration for the day

In honor of procrastination, I am going to blog today.  I am currently rereading articles and writing summaries on them.  Note to self: write the summary after reading the article, so that I don't have to go back through it.  Do I think I will actually implement this lesson?  Very doubtful.  Reading articles about rats and pigeons from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s is not the most exciting thing to do on this beautiful Saturday afternoon.  I could be in the ATL celebrating this girls bachelorette party...

But sadly, ticket prices were entirely too expensive, and since I had to choose, I chose the wedding to buy a plane ticket for.  So, I am still in Lawrence, KS.  On campus.  On a Saturday.  Welcome to graduate school Jessica.  

Here is some inspiration for the day!

Maybe if I procrastinate even more I'll write a second post ;)  Expect it in about 15 minutes.

To Kelly Foster....

So, I remember why I changed from tumblr to blogger... I couldn't figure out how to leave comments or allow people to leave comments.  And it drived me nuts for some reason.  Hence, I am writing this blogpost as my comment to your most recent post... Who wants to go to Disney World with Me?

And my response that I would leave in a comment box is....

The end of my 30 days of Dr. Seuss

I am sick of Dr. Seuss quotes.  Not as motivated anymore to do that.  So here is my last one for you...

We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.

How incredible is that?  

Definitely in mutual weirdness with this guy. ;)

Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.

Dr. Seuss

You have brains in your head, 

You have feet in your shoes, 

You can steer yourself, 

Any direction you choose.

Today is your day!  Your mountain is waiting.... So get on your way.

HAPPY 4th of JULY!!!

God bless America.  Seriously!  This is one of about 3 4th of Julys that I can remember not being at Camp DeSoto.  The other 3 - St. Augustine, Athens, and... no idea.  So maybe this one is number three?  Oh, I was in Costa Rica for the third.  So, I think this makes number 4?  I can tell you what.  4th of Julys at camp are something special.  You get woken up with crackers going off and the smell of smoke.  Then you get to deck yourself out in red, white, and blue and dance the day away.  Sing patriotic songs, eat huge pieces of watermelon, county fair, and of course the entertaining fireworks show at the end of the night.  

This 4th, I will be spending it working on reading articles and writing summaries about them.  Sounds fun right?  Maybe a cookout tonight?  Not sure.  But, I am sure am thankful for this place that seems to be going down the drain.  We still have religious freedom and other freedoms lots of other people do not ever get to experience, so thank God for that!  And thank God for Camp DeSoto ;)

On another note...  "Why fit in when you were born to STAND OUT?" ~ The Dr. Himself

Let's just say I provide my family with hours of laughs on my wardrobe choices.  I am often told by Jen or Tom that I look homeless.  Ha, I call it creativity and personal style.

Yes, he pumps up car tires with a bicycle pump.

Ha.

Save the Date

I love getting save the dates!  I got one today (ha I decided to check my mail today and not yesterday)!  My dear YMCA camp friend is getting married to a guy she has been dating for quite a while now!  It is so exciting!  Here it is...

Very excited for these two!  

Hope everyone has had a great weekend!  I am just now getting over a two day migraine.  Wohoo.  Finally, what a relief.  Also, interesting news... looks like my two first research projects will be on increasing physical activity in young children and delay discounting (waiting).  Pretty exciting stuff.  I am excited to get the ball rolling on graduate school.  Hope all is well.
