“sometimes i just get bursts of energy and i have to shake ‘em out.” – tayte paul campbell, age 25

here’s the thing guys.
we’re still alive and kicking over here, i promise.
but just barely.
school has started and it’s little stressful.
ok it’s a lot stressful…well for me.
tayte’s a grad student and that means you actually get to park on campus and you don’t have homework and undergrads bother you and…yeah.
i have a pretty stressful schedule though.
i’m just always busy, even though i only have classes 3 days a week. (my tuesday night class doesn’t count. it’s one credit, first block, and the teacher is literally my idol. i want to be her when i grow up. first day of class, i texted tayte after like an hour of class and told him that i had found my favorite professor of all time. she’s awesome)
but it’s ok, because tayte keeps me sane and happy and laughing and things.
it’s such a blessing to have him in my life.

so tayte had a birthday recently, so there was some celebrating.
{he is now 25. don’t let him forget it}
on monday, we had our next door neighbors over for cake and ice cream because the guy’s birthday was on sunday.
on wednesday, tayte’s actual birthday, there was a mandatory graduate dinner thing.
so we had a nice, free dinner.
on thursday, we had a lil birthday bash at our apartment and lots of friends and family came and made tayte feel special.
we have the best friends and family…seriously though.
the happy birthday sign is still up, things are still festive, and we still have birthday cake and pumpkin stuff in our kitchen (all of which need to be thrown away).

that’s all i had to say.
i just wanted to remind you that we exist and we’re still happy and all that jazz.
i’m especially happy because this is my last semester of classes and my student teaching application is in which means i really am almost done.
that excites me greatly.
the end is in sight.
we’re gonna make it.

…unless i eat this entire pound of those sour watermelon things by myself.
in the next hour.

everybody be cool.
it’s just a normal day.
