Ay-yi-yi.

How about 15 Things You Should Know on Saturday.

1.Yikes! I'm one of "those" bloggers again. Not posting for months. I just have so much to cover, I'm not sure where to begin. To make it a little less challenging because I am not sure where to start, we will do one of the favorites which is the "_ Things you should know" posts.

2. 18. This person is 18. This means I am legally adult, and in reality, nothing changed. Yay for me! I also had a big birthday party with my best friend. Lots of friends, laughs, food, and gifts! I am also working on, like a million thank you notes. It was so great! I loved it.

3. Spring break. This week! Yay! I get to sleep, perhaps redecorate my room, get ahead on some homework, enjoy ever changing weather in Colorado, write thank you notes, and who knows what else.

4.In other news, Kels came home and we got to surprise everyone. I picked her up at the airport and she surprised everyone for spring break. It was totally stressful and so much fun!

5. My sister (another sister) made it to Nationals after competing in CACS, and I am so excited for her and so sad for me because I so wish I was going down to Nationals so I could see all my friends.

6. I have an essay I am supposed to be writing, but I didn't want to, so I am blogging instead. As you can see, my priorities are on point!

7. I am currently reading "Bonhoeffer". Great great great and big book but totally cool. It's about a pastor that is part of the attempted assassination of Hitler. Wait what? A pastor who is in a plot to kill Hitler? Oh yes. Read it. Read it now.

8. My favorite movie is Pride and Prejudice with Keira Knightley. True story. Mmmm. I just love everything about it. The music, the actors/actresses, the plot line, the beautiful places they shoot the movie. All absolutely awesome!

9. High-heeled shoes are my arch nemesis. I always think I will make it through the day, and without fail, it about an hour, I switch to my tried and true flats. Preferably Toms. Do lawyers always have to wear heals? I certainly hope not.

10. Speaking of lawyers, my dad-o got me TWO sweatshirts from Harvard. And they are so comfy. He got a big one because I constantly steal his to wear and sleep in and he got me one that is technically my size. That one has pockets in it.

11. Girls are always short-changed on pockets. Either we don't have them made into our clothing, or they are so small, our cell phones won't fit in them. Oh the pain! What first world problems we have!

12. The weather today was warm. Then it snowed for 10 minutes. Then it warmed up again. The weather in Denver is bi-polar to be sure.

13. Kelso left today to go back to college.

14. Speaking of college, Kelso got accepted into the nursing program AND in her top pick for where she wanted to be. God is so good. So good. I'm so excited for her!

15. I am eternally grateful for friends, family, and ice cream and not exactly in that order. God is so good.

And one more for good measure: For my birthday dinner, I went to a restaurant that used to be a mortuary (I know, celebrating life in a place where dead people were... a little weird) but the food was SO GOOD and so unique and so yummy. I was going to have ice cream from a little place right outside the mortuary turned restaurant but I was too full. I know, I know, I couldn't believe it either. But it was super yummy. Especially the shrimp and the ceviche I had. Numsters! I recommend it! They served flavored popcorn as a "starter" like bread is at other places. And you had a choice between sparkling and distilled water. It was just really cool! It's called Ortuary's Eatery. So good! Check it out! Loved it!
