9AM

who says it's impossible to get anything done in the morning before you've had your first cup of coffee?

i just booked my ticket home in August (i'll be back late, late, late on the 23rd) and that's if there are no problems with my flights. i opted to pay for a more expensive ticket from Midwest because i didn't want to get stuck in the Northwest debacle of cancelled & delayed flights. that just hasn't been pretty.

N & I went to Blue Springs National Park last night in Orange City. we had been there earlier in the week for an hour or so to just look around but didn't get the chance to swim in the natural spring. last night, N left work an hour early, i packed our bathing suits and we headed out. it was w.o.n.d.e.r.f.u.l. (i'll post pictures soon).

today, neither of us are feeling great so i think we'll postpone our trip to Daytona Beach and go to Walgreens instead and stock up on cold medicine & throat lozenges. and maybe later on emerge from our over-the-counter drug induced haze to go look at wedding bands and get the tuxedos booked.
