This and That

It's definately too soon to be talking about it but as those of you who know me understand, I cannot keep a secret. No, Jackie, I am not pregnant. ;) Dave and I are working together on a children's book. I am really super excited about it. I am doing the writing, he is illustrating and we came up with our idea while driving to Virginia. I am not going to go into too many details just yet but I had to say something. It's been great finding a project that Dave and I can work on together that we both enjoy equally. I have helped him here and there with some of his animations (I stress "here and there") but this is "ours."

I don't have much else to report right now. I start classes next Monday and I am pretty nervous because it will be my first semester as a full time student. I will also still be working 30+ hours a week with Katie so it's gonna be a bit tricky managing it all at first but I am determined to keep my 3.8 GPA. I will just have to learn to deal. My classes sound pretty interesting at least and hopefully that will carry me through to Christmas. Anycrap, if you don't hear from me for a while, now you know why.

I am reading a great book right now called Robbing the Bees by Holley Bishop. My Dad has started beekeeping in his backyard until he can officially retire and become a farmer. I have been fascinated with his newest obsession oddly enough. I actually have a bit of a bee phobia. So at the very least he seems to be helping me to overcome this fear. Bees are ridiculously interesting creatures. So check out the book sometime.
