Birthdays, Mother's Day, and David Cook

So...here is what I've been up to lately...hold on because it is so exciting!

Really, there's not a lot to tell, which is pretty much the story of my life right now. But... I've had a good time doing nothing. My roommate Jess celebrated her 26th birthday a couple of weeks ago so several of our friends took her up to the Legends for an evening out. We had a great time watching drunk people try to ride the mechanical bull. Dinner at Johnny Carrino's was great, as always. Here is a picture of Misty, Marcie, and I after dinner. Here's one with the birthday girl, herself. We have a good time. If there's one thing you can count on Jess for, it's a laugh.

Here is a picture of me with my Nana. My brother Kyle decided to surprise my mom for Mother's Day by going to Manhattan this weekend. Nana and Papa decided to go visit as well...and I couldn't be the only one who wasn't there...so I went over yesterday. Mom was surprised...which was the goal.
This one is fun... I've been watching American Idol over the past couple of seasons and this year a Kansas City guy is one of the top contestants. David Cook was in town on Friday and was honored at the Royals game. He threw out the first pitch and later sang "Take Me Out to the Ball Game." My little brother had called on Wednesday afternoon to see if I wanted to go to the game, so I didn't go because David Cook was there, but it was definitely a plus. He's been my favorite on AI this season.

And since it was Friday night, there were fireworks after the game. These were my favorite shots.

So...there it is folks. There has been virtually no movement on the job front. Oh well...something will come a long soon. Until then...I'll just enjoy the spring weather.

So...it's been a while. Obviously, my Jayhawks won the NCAA tournament. It was awesome. My roommate and friend and I went to the celebration parade in Lawrence. It was crazy. I don't think I've ever seen that many people in my life. It was a great time though.

In the picture below...Coach and Mrs. Coach Self are riding by. It was nice that a couple of days after the game Coach announced that he'll be staying at Kansas for what I hope is a really long time. This is a picture of my roommate Jess and I at the parade. Marcie used one of the "special features" on her camera to filter out all colors but blue. I'm sure there is a technical term for that but I'm not sure what it is and I really don't care to look it up right now.

So...there it is for now. Nothing really exciting happening. I'll post more later...when I have more energy. We went to the zoo today...good times but a lot of walking. So...anyway, I've got a couple of pictures taken over the last couple of weeks that I'll post. Oh...Kara, we need to talk. I've got a scheme going and...yeah we should really talk.

More later, I promise.
