My new favorite things.

I pressed send on a Gmail message this morning, and this little dialog box popped up that said, "You wrote the words 'I'm attaching' in your message, but you didn't attach anything.'" It was creepy and thrilling at the same time.

Service learning was a big part of my undergrad experience at Florida State, and it appears FSU is still at it. One of the assignments in my Info Needs of Young Adults class is to create a bibliography (list) of books for specific families who benefit from Warrick Dunn's Family Foundation. The Foundation works with Habitat for Humanity to build houses for single parent families. Part of the budget for each house includes $1,000 to create a library for the kids and teens in each family. (How amazing is that?!) Anyway, doctoral students from FSU have interviewed the teens in these houses about their needs and interests, and our job as Library students is to recommend books we think would meet the teens' needs! So, we create bibliographies and turn them in to our instructor for a grade, but the fun doesn't stop there! Those bibliographies are then given to the Foundation, and the Foundation reviews our recommendations, purchases selected books, and places them in these homes!! Honestly, I'm so impressed with Warrick Dunn and Florida State!!! And I'm privileged and excited to be a part of this process.

The ceiling fans we bought for our house have remote controls. I can not describe the luxurious joy of laying in bed and turning the light/fan on and off.

My friend's Etsy shop: ArcheryGoods.

Having tickets to see the Get Up Kids in February at the State Theater. I love them and they are so good live. I hope they haven't changed much in the last 5 years. It's been a while since I've been current with them. I love Red Letter Day, Something to Write Home About, and On a Wire.

Planning my engagement photos with Jen Smith.

Eggo NutriGrain Blueberry waffles for breakfast. They're low calorie and surprisingly filling.

And my staycation which will take place between February 7th and 11th. I'm going to get a pedicure, have a movie marathon, go thrift store shopping, have lunch with a friend I haven't seen in years, and probably take several naps and have ridiculously long phone calls with Elissa.
