A long time coming!

Well, its been forever since I updated this. Been very busy the last couple months working two jobs and doing other non-blogging stuff. I didn't even really get the opportunity to storm chase anything...a few marginal to decent setups occurred in the last couple months as I remember but I was working most days. My first job was teaching Intro to the Atmosphere at my local community college. That was fun and not too difficult but since I had nothing prepped it was a never-ending battle to stay ahead. The class met every day M-F since it was a summer class so I never really got a break to get ahead on prep. My other job was working nights at a grocery store. So most days I got up, worked on some last minute prep, taught, came home for lunch, and then worked at the grocery store, then came home and slept. Then repeat!

I did go to St. Louis to see Michelle over a couple weekends in there and that was a lot of fun. We went to a county fair down there and saw fireworks, bands, animals and ate a lot of fair food. There was a vendor of home-made root beer there...once you bought the bottle, refills were only 2 dollars so I drank a ton of root beer both days we were there. We also went to Meramec Caves and took a cave tour. For being basically a hole in the ground, it was very cool. I'd post pictures but they're all on Michelle's camera.

Anyway, I've got just a couple shifts left at the grocery store, and next week Michelle and I will be moving back to DeKalb. I still don't know what I'm teaching next semester so that'll be a surprise, and I don't really know what classes I'm taking either. I also need to get going on my thesis so I should have plenty to do!
