What are we up to?

We I have been so bad at keeping up with blogging lately. Here's a little rundown of what has been going on with us lately...

Rob just finished up with his MBA program - yay! He will now have a lot of extra time on his hands. He is contemplating getting into another Masters program next quarter...just not sure which program he will choose.

My Biology program was just changed to pre-med, which kicks everything up a notch. The Anatomy and Physiology class is killing me! We have to do gross stuff like dissect cow bones and sheep brains. It's interesting, but oh-so-gross at the same time. Plus, I am a wuss. I have pictures, but thought it a little tasteless to post them. They really are gross!

With our schedules we don't get to see too much of each other during the week, so we are really looking forward to taking our long vacation together. We haven't really planned out what were are going to do...I just know I want to see a show - Rob, not so much. I am still working on getting him to go with it. I am also planning on taking lots of pictures. We are SO bad a doing that and are trying to work on it...we'll see.

Happy Easter!

We are off to have brunch with friends and then maybe catch a movie.
Hope you are all having a great Easter!

Booked!

I finally did it. I just booked us 9 days back East for the first week of May. Three days in New York City, down to Washington DC for two, up to Philadelphia for two more and then back to NYC for another two.

We are really looking forward to getting away for such a long vacation. We haven't really decided what we will do while we are there, but we have a few weeks to plan. Anyone have any must see/do's for us?

Six Feet Under

I just started getting Six Feet Under from Netflix. It's pretty funny and a touch on the dark side (the family owns and operates a funeral parlor). It's really starting to grow on me...I would definitely recommend it.

I love HBO series; they have yet to do me wrong.

I am a big fan of watching shows that are on DVD rather than weekly on television. I don't have the patience to wait week to week, I'd rather watch them one after another.

The Retainer

Since I didn't have the self discipline necessary to wear my Invisilign at night, a couple of my teeth have shifted a bit. Bummer, I know! So I visited my Orthodontist, got a little lecture, some molds taken and was told that a wire retainer would be my next step. This is what I thought he meant by a wire retainer.

Boy, was I wrong! I went to pick it up only to find out that it is one of those old school retainers that take up your entire mouth and have the wire on the outside of your teeth! As if this isn't bad enough, it is pink with sparkles!! Why they did this is beyond me. If I would have had the choice, pink is definitely not the way I would go. Green maybe, but never pink.

Plus I got a sparkly purple case to keep it in. Cool huh...if I were eleven, and even that would be pushing it. Honestly, I think I would prefer to have my braces back on. I'm a whiner, I know.
