Embarrassment and Excitement

Embarassing story of the week:

Earlier this week I was packing some desk supplies and came across a perpetual birthday calendar. It was 12:30am and I should have been headed to bed, but I got a huge surge of energy and decided to write down/look up important birthdays. Somewhere in the shuffle of papers and late night grogginess, K-Kas's birthday got written down as June 24th instead of July 24th. So that next morning, bright and early, I left a cheery birthday message for K-Kas! I followed it up with an email the next day just to make sure she knew that I was thinking of her on her birthday:

Hi Katherine!

Hope you had a great birthday yesterday!
Can't wait to see you in Rochester soon!!

Love,
Sarah

Thanks, you are way too sweet! My birthday is actually in July, but that is still way better than i do for most people! I can hardly wait to see you!
Love,
kkas

To which she promptly wrote back and corrected my faux paux. (or however you spell that fancy french word) Looks like I won't be forgetting Katherine's birthday anytime soon!

TSTD and I had a lovely phone date tonight! It was great to talk with you, TDbear! Glad we finally connected and hope the rest of your trip/flight back home went well.

Here's the card I made for my move! A good excuse to mess with my new version of Office, courtesy of Drake University. Taking a class there has some perks! I might send them out as postcards? Or I might email them out? We'll see how motivated I feel...


In other news, my aunt + uncle tipped me off to a fun fact: there's an airline that flies directly to Mesa from random cities around the US! Flights can go as cheap as $39 for one-way they said. So if you're ever looking to visit, check out: www.allegiantair.com. They're based in Milwaukee, but they fly out of Cedar Rapids, IA, Rapid City, SoDak, Souix City, and Portland! I thought of my lovely friends, all spread out over the country when I was looking through the sites.
