long time no post

i have no time management skills, which turns into me doing the things i need to get done, and not much else. i've been a lot more social than usual lately, which cuts into my computer time, but i think i'm happier because of it. i've gone out and played at the open mic night at a coffee shop here two weeks in a row. i'm gonna try to line up a gig there soon and bring out some friends to play and hopefully have enough friends left to make an audience. i went to see ben harper in athens. it was seriously the best concert i've ever been to. i can't wait for his new album to come out next week. i preordered it on itunes... how dorky is that?

blue got sick again friday, but has been fine since, which makes he and i both a lot happier. i finally splurged and ordered the camera i've been lusting after for so long. i'm hoping it will get here by the end of the week. i just wrapped up my 4 weeks of required full-time teaching, so now i have to work on a few projects, but don't have the burden of planning. i'll still teach a lot, but i'll use my teacher's lesson plans and not have as many things to worry about at home, and i'll get to come home a lot earlier! which is great with the gorgeous weather we've been having. i think that pretty much sums up the last few weeks. i've had ideas come to me that would make good blog posts, but just haven't felt like posting. i apologize. i'll try to get some pictures up here often, cause i've taken a ton lately. and when i get the new camera, there's no telling how many pics i'll get up here. maybe i'll set up a photoblog. (maybe some of my more computer savvy friends can help me set up somehing other than blogger...)

here are some pics from camp, the gym is just about finished!
