Meet my friend...
A few months ago, Zack, Katelan, and I all got seamonkeys at Walmart. How often do seamonkeys ever last? Maybe 3 months tops, right? Well, for some reason, mine are thriving. I guess I'm just such a good mother that I do it without even trying! I now have tons of algae (that's a good thing for the seamonkeys), 3 pregnant seamonkey mamas, 2 mating pairs, and several little baby seamonkeys. They're so cool! Did you know that seamonkeys are born with 1 eye, and then as they get bigger they grow 2 more so that by the time they are fully grown, they have 3 eyes? And did you know that they smell with their feet? I wonder what they do when they step in seamonkey poo... ewww! Seamonkeys are just super cool (and strange!) creatures and I have spent several afternoons just watching them swim around. It doesn't sound that exciting, but I promise. It really is.
Mardi Gras 2008!
My first Mardi Gras. One of the perks of dating a wonderful young man who lives on the Mississippi Gulf Coast! There were parades... lots of parades. And beads! Sooo many beads [Disclaimer: I definitely did NOT do anything scandalous to get the beads!!!!]. Moon Pies, beads, fake roses, beads, plastic cups, and more beads: I've got it all now! Sadly, my camera was taking a fix-it vacation and didn't quite make it back in time to document all the super-duper goings-on of the weekend. But fortunately, the whole thing was spontaneously re-enacted a week later at my dorm!
Speak Knightly and Carry a Big Sword!
Every so often, maybe once a month, all of the interesting people come out into the public eye on campus. My favorites would have to be the folks who dress up like medieval knights and sword fight in front of my dorm. How awesome is that? Seriously.
