• “I’m not ready to make nice. I’m not ready to back down.” –Dixie Chicks-

  
  

   

  
  

  Tonight my mom as much as told me that when I wear my hair in a faux-hawk, it reminds her of that infamous scene in “There’s Something About Mary.” Ohhhh, wow.

  The wonderful miss Sarah Glassman sent me the most fabulous birthday care package I’ve ever received in my life. Seriously, it made me so happy. It was all wrapped in neon green duct tape with hot pink address labels & a Hebrew “Happy Birthday” sticker. She sent me all kinds of goodies, including a Chipotle gift card, handmade earrings and chocolate-covered Twizzlers. Amazing, I know. I actually cried.

  
  

   

  
  

  Sam & I went to the State Fair yesterday, where I “auditioned” for an Oscar Mayer commercial singing the “my bologna has a first name” song. In other news, we ate approximately four potatoes throughout the course of the day but were not privileged enough to witness the birth of any farm animals.

  Speaking of the fair, I’m going with the lovely Jason Madeline on Friday, & I couldn’t be any more excited. If I were him, I would have stopped being friends with me a long time ago, but somehow, he still likes me enough to talk to me on the phone for an hour & a half at 2 a.m. What a great guy.

  
  

   

  
  

  Today I interviewed four of the university’s top administrators… successfully, thanks to a late-night pep talk & a little feigned confidence. Every time I effectively complete an article I feel one step closer to competence for this fall reporting assignment. Bring it onnnn, KSU.
