Alright now...

Oh boy has it been a long time since I got on here and wrote anything worth reading but I guess I should let you all know what is going on with me any not to mention my mother.

Spring Break was awesome, I went to Chicago and came back with a Silver metal from Curling Nationals. I saw the Bean, rode the giant Ferris Wheel on Navy Peer, saw Watchman in one of the largest Imax theatre in the nation, and ate at the world famous "Bubba Gumps!" I made it back to Bowling Green for one day and had to turn right around and head to Cincinnati for the week. The United States Institute for Theatre Technology (USITT) Conference was amazing and extremely intimidating. There were some amazing students whos drawings and ideas blew my mind.

This past Friday morning I picked up my new knee brace that, fyi, is incredibly hot, painful, and black-- preventing me from wearing any brown or navy blue. I will be wearing this brace every day for a month while attending therapy 2-3xs a week. I would appreciate everyone crossing your fingers for all of this to work so I can avoid surgery.

On to something a bit scary, my mommy spent a week in the hospital after a CAT scan showing a "spot" on her lung and heart. She was admitted into the Mayo Clinic for emergency surgery to remove the spots, luckily they could do everything through a small incision on her chest apposed to rolling her over and going through her side. The doctors removed the spots not knowing whether they were cancerous or caused by Histoplasmosis. Histoplasmosis is (as it was explained to me), pretty much everywhere, most people will have it sometime in their lives and if she had never gone into the hospital, she would have never gone through all this. On her way back from Minnesota, she drove through Cincinnati where we had lunch and got a chance to catch up, thanks ma' for scaring the shit out of me. Don't do it again.

I suppose that is all, I hope everyone is having a wonderful end of the semester!!!
