Navasota has the swine flu. I don’t have work until May 11! I really hope no one dies, because then I will feel really guilty for being so excited about this.

Naturally, my first impulse at times like these is to make a to do list:

1. Finish my paper for seminary (which means that the class/semester is finished as well!)

2. UPDATE MY BLOG!

3. Stay up late. Yum. I miss doing that.

4. Go see 17 Again.

5. Hang out with Shelley and Janie and Jessica before they all leave College Station.

6. Day trip to Brenham.

7. Read a book for fun. I know a thousand people who have been reading Same Kind of Different as Me. Can I borrow it from one of you?

8. Finish my scrapbook for Poland from TWO years ago. (talk about procrastination…)

9. Finish my photo album (yes, I gave up scrapbooking, it is too time-consuming and guilt-inducing) for Poland from ONE year ago.

10. Get a haircut. I haven’t had one since school was cancelled for Hurricane Ike! Maybe if I got more regular hair cuts these disasters would not happen.

11. Go running in the AM while it is still cool-ish.

I love lists and accomplishing stuff and productivity. I also love having free time. Rarely do these two coexist in the same week. But, my friends, it is really happening RIGHT NOW! Well, as soon as I finish this paper…

PS: We called Hurricane Ike a “hurrication”. So I am tagging this post “swineflucation”.
