Studying, Sickness, and Road Trips

Last week was one of the craziest, most miserable weeks
  of. my. life. 
I felt like I would never get through it. 

Weekend: Studystudystudystudystudy. Monday: 7-page research paper for Spanish due, Integrative Cellular Physiology exam. Tuesday: Molecular and Cellular Biology lab, Organic Chemistry exam. [Insert crash due to sleep deprivation + pms here]. Wednesday: Studystudystudystudy, crash. Thursday: Studystudystudystudystudy. [Insert more sleep deprivation here.] Friday: Molecular and Cellular Biology exam. 

Throw work and classes in there and isn't that just delightful?
A lotta Jesus and a lotta coffee are what got me through that, lemme tell ya. 

On the upside, I did actually get through it alive (whoa! who woulda thunk?) and I had the whole weekend to relax! Thank God. For realsies. On the downside, Tim's "it's just a cold, I'll be fine" got significantly worse, so I got to play nurse and take care of him all weekend. (Thankfully I didn't get sick too!) I finally got him to let me take him to the doctor today, so I am reassured by the antibiotics and corticosteroids they've got him pumped full of becaaaauuusee...

(drumroll please)

NEXT WEEKEND IS VETERAN'S DAY WEEKEND WHICH MEANS WE HAVE A THREE DAY WEEKEND AND WE ARE GOING TO PHOENIX!!!

(can you tell that I'm excited for next weekend?)

We are going up on Friday morning and we're going to stay at my mom's house, visit with Chelsea and Chris, and do all kinds of fun weekend-off couple sorts of things, like shooting and ice skating and good-food-eating!
I love spending time with Tim (you know, 'cause I love him and stuff ;) ) and being up in Phoenix and getting to see people that I love so dearly but barely get to see is going to make it exponentially better. Ahh yeah. 

I can't wait.
