How 'Bout Them Hogs?!

So, how bout that swine flu? Pretty crazy...it's become the running joke in our office but it really is a scary thing! I have some friends that have had to cancel their graduation trips to Mexico =(

Well, it's the last week of class and I am in full-time freak out mode. Seriously. About 50% of our points are all due next Monday including a HUGE paper, presentation, final exam, and final homework. O-M-G. Luckily I really don't have too much going on this weekend so I can dedicate a ton of time to it. I was going to volunteer at Touch-A-Truck, which is a fundraiser our Junior League is doing this Saturday. But after looking at the work load I'll have this weekend, I knew I wouldn't be able to enjoy it because I would be worrying about all the work I have to do, so I let them know I couldn't make it. I sure will miss it though, it's a really fun event! If any of you live in Northwest Arkansas, please come out and support us! Here is some info:

I finished reading "The Kite Runner" last week, it was sooooo good! I really want to read the 2nd book "A Thousand Splendid Suns" now. Has anyone read it? I also need to be thinking of a book to take to Italy. I always like to bring a big HUGE book on vacations and just get lost in them! I'm a bit of a book worm =)

I started my big diet for Italy this week! It's going really well and I feel good. Hopefully I'll have time to work out as much as I want to this week, it's going to be a pretty busy one. Tonight I'm going to a Razorback baseball game with Jeff and some of his clients. And Thursday I've got a big Happy Hour/Roast for one of our co-workers who got promoted into a new team. Should be fun!
