Goings On

The coolest thing that's happened to us recently is that Will is finally going to start school. Yup, he's going to do Devry Online; he can get his whole Bachelor's degree in two and a half years without ever setting foot on a campus. Or outside the house, for that matter. His degree will be in Video Game and Simulation Programming. I'm pretty excited. The first semester he's just going to do part-time, but if it works out he's going to go to full-time. Woo hoo!

The other awesome thing was the birth of my niece, Macie Eva! Will's brother Jason and his wife Jana had their second baby girl on Friday, and she's so cute! They don't know this, but they used the middle name we were going to if our next one was a girl (there is no next one yet, so don't freak out). Crazy! I'll probably still use it, though (or Eve, depending on the first name); I think it's fine for cousins to have the same middle name. There are four people with the middle name Elizabeth on my dad's side of the family, counting my Grandma Margaret Elizabeth, the original.

Not much else to say. My mom left for Girls' Camp today, so I'm alone with Chaela and three men for the week. We'll see how that goes. Apparently I'm expected to feed them. I didn't watch the Bachelorette this week, even though after the response my last post got I feel like I should do a weekly synopsis/review! Ha ha.

I DID watch "I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here" and mostly enjoyed it. There was a challenge where they had to eat gross food to see who would be the new camp leader. One of the items was bull testicles. Seriously? Hasn't Fear Factor done that a million times? And I'm getting tired of the bickering and contention that happens on reality T.V., brought to IACGMOOH (when the acronym is that long, it's time for a new title) by Janice Dickinson, former supermodel. She is annoying. That's why I think the best shows are ones like "Dancing with the Stars" where celebrities don't interact with each other or talk much.
