absence makes the heart grow fonder...

So first off I'll apologize for my absence. It seems like it's been FOREVER since I've blogged...and judging by the date of the last post...it truly has been a while. I've had the best intentions of writing something, and then when I have time, I'm usually tired and would much rather just bum around the house.

But anyway...here I am NOW!

Indoor is over (thank God!). It seems like it took forever and a day, and it drain every ounce of sanity out of me along the way. My girls did progressively better as the season went on and I feel like we ended on a positive note going into outdoor this weekend.

School is still the same...I'm simply trying to make it through the next year and two months. I do just enough to get by, and that is absolutely fine with me.

Spring break was awesome. I got to spend it with the boo and it was nice to play wifey for a week. Being around his team, makes me appreciate the girls I have as athletes but at the same time a little jealous of the ones he has. I guess each group will always have different qualities and blend together differently. His group seems like a family. My group listens diligently to my every word and does their best to take heed to my instructions. His group laughs and jokes around plus have more talent. My group is a little uptight at times...but we're working on it and after spending some quality time with a few of them, I've learned so much about their worlds and how much it differs from mine and where I came from. I know that every time I leave him, it gets a little harder, but I was dreading leaving before it was even time for me to board the plane. Geesh I wish the time would pass already so we can be FOREVER...

But speaking of planes...Philadelphia is the worst place in America to fly to/from. There will ALWAYS be a delay regardless if the weather is 75 and sunny outside. The bathrooms are disgusting, and the people who work there need a serious attitude adjustment.

Let's see what else has happened...

My bags were left in Philadelphia on the way back from VA...so not what's up. This have never happened to me before and when they decided to bring them back to me, it was 1am in the morning. Now who in the hell bangs on a person's door at 1am like the damn police just to deliver some damn luggage. Due to the foul language in the last sentence, I'm pretty sure you can tell how I feel about the situation.

On a positive note, the Rice women won yet ANOTHER indoor title...HOOT HOOT to the ladies in blue! Rice wtf all the way!

My future in laws referred to me as their "daughter." I've never felt so special off the most random comment. Maybe it's just the way southern people are because they take in their children's friends or significant others as their own...but that really meant the world to me even if it wasn't intended in such a manner.

I competed again over spring break...nothing impressive but I won nonetheless so I guess that makes it okay. I'm 3-0 on the season!

Speaking of wins/losses...WOOHOO for march madness. This is most definitely my most favorite time of year (that doesn't include gifts b/c Christmas and Birthdays trump basketball on any day!). Right now I'm loving Syracuse...that 6OT game had me up all night...and I've been rocking with them ever since. I have Pittsburgh winning it all (over Memphis), but they've been on the struggle so I don't know about that one right now.

That's about all that has happened in my life as of now...

I'm trying to take everything in stride and keep it moving day by day with a smile on my face. But the summer can't come fast enough! In the mean time...I'm hoping for a national qualifier by the end of the season (hey...a girl can dream!).

Ah Lacee',
Your life sounds wonderful right now to me :) haha
I do have a story to top your experience in the airport. YES! it was that bad. I've realized that I have been taking some things for granted, such as TV. I have not watched an american channel since Sept. I so love march madness and i get to see NONE of it. Just read random Yahoo articles. SO yeah ... enjoy that one next time you watch.
