L O S T

there is a reason i will be sad tonight when lost is over

it is because of all the things i will miss

the dharma food labels

the numbered rabbits

the mysteries

the neverending amount of online chatter that keeps me occupied at work between calls, check out slate or lostpedia

me & tom will be at the dharma station rabbit hole tonight watching and unlike everyone else i'm not that worried about if all the questions are answered, because frankly, when in life does that happen?

Graduation and the recipe for the perfect clambake

So first of all, I graduated! So here's some traditional cap & gown photos (Tom, his mom and my sisters were there too, but I looked funny in those pictures. So last week was sort of non-stop partying, with graduation Thursday night, my friends over Saturday and my family (most of the cousins and all) over on Monday.

With all that I think I was able to come up with the recipe for the perfect clambake.

First rent Elvis' movie clambake-it's kind of horribly cheesy which is great, but watch out, you'll get the song stuck in your head forever, just click on the link below to check it out:

Then invite over some awesome people, here are just a few of mine for example:

 

Then comes the hard part, the cooking, I grabbed a recipe from here. And tweaked it a little.  You want to leave out the seaweed since you don't end up eating it, but don't that's what adds the flavor!

graduation

It only took 

9 years (off and on)

5 colleges (CGCC, NAU, MCC, NMSU, ASU)

2 majors

and around $25,000 (?) of my money, my parent's money, student loans and Express Script's money (thank you tuition reimbursement) 

but I am finally graduating (summa cum laude I might add) in 2, count 'em 2, days!

If anyone wants to come Thursday night that's where I'll be.  OR if you want to come celebrate, that's Saturday night . . . my place, clambake, swimming, retro movies, it will be great.

Much thanks to Tara for lending me this little number on Friday night.  We went out to Sticky Fingers but not many people were dressed up all the glamorous, but we were!
