Some randomness from April in no particular order

9> Conversation w/ neighborman:
Me: Hey NM! Want to come see my new cactuses?
NM: You mean Cacti?
Me: Oh, yeah, Cacti. Sorry.
NM: When it's more than one, it's CactI. "Cactuses" just doesn't make any sense.

8> Mom and I went to NOLA for the Beth Moore seminar. It was great! Very motivating. We also ate good NOLA food and went to the Botanic Garden, to which, believe it or not, I had never been. It was a good Mom/Daughter weekend that we both needed.

7> I went to my chiropractor for the first time since November. His office has a new policy, and it was going to cost me like $450 out of pocket. His offices are incredibly inconvenient for me, so I decided to take the opportunity to change Dr.s I go to the new one for a 1st appt. next week.

6> I bought a new car!

5> I was in NOLA way too much in April. My monthly travel voucher was $2800, and that didn't include any airfare. Normally they aren't over $1000.

4> I got to have lunch with Andree and baby Lucy, and Meredith and I had dinner with Maegan and baby Evan. Both babies are PRECIOUS. I didn't have my camera with me to take any of Lucy :(




3> I got on a shrimp kick. Mainly boiled, especially with cocktail sauce from Acme Oyster House which burns...Burns....BURNS, but is like crack to me. And the BBQ shrimp at R&O's in Bucktown is amazing.

2> Jason and I went to the first part of the Hilltop Spring Garden Tours. Saw some neat-o things.

1> My red passion vine started to bloom.
