It feels simultaneously like forever and like just yesterday that I last posted here - I don't even want to know how long its been! It has been one hell of a (however long its been) since I was here last, but fortunately all of the chaos is behind me. I got married on May 18th and had a wonderful honeymoon in Charleston and Savannah May 19-26th. Got to see my friend who came home from Afghanistan and his wife while in Savannah and generally had a lovely time in a warm climate. Got home that Sunday night, went to the Orioles/Nationals game on Memorial Day, went to lunch with my sister for her birthday yesterday (well, her birthday was the 28th) and now I can finally say I've made it to the other side of the black hole of craziness that had been looming ahead of me for the last month or so of school. Finals, wedding, honeymoon, all done and out of the way.

I have a lot of stuff still to do for the summer, but the bulk of it has come and gone and I feel (mostly) at peace. To do lists have always been one of my favorite things and now that there isn't wedding stuff or school stuff on them it isn't so bad churning through them.

I'm happy to report that May's monthly resolution of making myself more presentable has been going excellently. I bought myself a new shirt, denim skirt and bright coral shorts and have started to wear some of the nicer clothes that are already in my closet. The only hindrance is money right now - with no summer job whatsoever I have zero income, so I don't feel quite right going out and buying a bunch of new clothes. But I think I've been doing a good job with what I have. No idea about June's resolution yet, but I still have a couple of days left!
