May 27 Update

Just dropping in. 
Here are some things I've been up to lately:
  • I graduated from Lewis and Clark Community College this month. I didn't walk because I already did that when I got my bachelor's from EIU (that, and I shot photos for work at the ceremony instead ;)), but I did earn an Associate in Applied Science in Web Design. 
  • I'm in my fifth week on Weight Watchers online and actually, I love it. The last couple weeks have been slow going, but I'm down about 12 pounds, and I'm feeling good while eating the things I want to eat (but better portion sizes) and still learning to be healthier overall. Cravings for the bad stuff come and go, but as long as I have some form of chocolate (even tiny amounts) I'm usually good to go. 
  • Two weeks from today, I will be at Bonnaroo enjoying its best day (the one with the most stacked schedule for me). I haven't decided how I'm going to cover it this year. Maybe just on Twitter. It's my first year with a smartphone after all. I've really neglected Bonnaroo Virgin, but the week after next I'll probably be posting a lot more since I'll be off work and getting pumped.
  • Tonight I'll go running with my Bonnaroo crew for the first time, as we are preparing to run the Warrior Dash in Missouri in October. I ran the St. Patrick's Day 5-Mile Parade Run in March and it was a lot of fun! Only thing is I had shin splints days later from overdoing it - so I really want to prepare well this time. It's a shorter race but its off-road and there are obstacles ;) Follow my training or friend me at DailyMile.com!
  • In July, we're going to Pitchfork Festival as well. I'm only going on Saturday, but the boys are there all weekend so I get some quality time with Brian. We're going to see Harry Potter 7!
I think that's about it. See you next time!
