Graduation Day!!!

So today was the day. After two long years in Grad school I am officially a Master of Arts-Communication. Even six months ago I never thought this day would come. But here I am, in full academic dress receiving an "almost" diploma. (I get to pick the real one up on Monday.)

I want to thank my family and friends for all of the help and support they have given me in the last two years. I couldn't have done it without you.

I want to give a special thanks to Kevin too. Thank you for holding my hand through this process and never giving up on me even when I was ready to throw in the towel. I really couldn't have done this without you. I love you. -mmg

Not just snoopy...

I took a five hour exam.
I successfuly defended that exam.
I finished a 39 page research paper.
I wrote 15 pages for my last take home final.
I turned in student grades.

I AM OFFICALLY DONE!

Excuse me while I do a happy dance...

Welcome back relaxation.
Welcome back reading for pleasure.
Welcome back uncluttered clean house.
Welcome back social life.
Welcome back.

Just a little bedtime snack... enjoy!

Haven't posted in a while. Life's been pretty crazy. I am feelin' better though. Found this and it made me smile. Thought I would share.

Wishing myself well

Day number three of being a miserable sicky. When I woke up this morning and my incapacitating sore throat was gone I could have jumped for joy (no more liquid diet!) but it has been replaced with a constantly runny nose, an obnoxious cough and of course a splitting headache. Let's just say, I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. Stupid viral infections! -mmg

Just another resume booster

Yes, it is true. Our wonderful kitty, Olive the great, is a winner! Although she did not come in first, (stupid beer--fridge kitty) she has been glorified by both the Humane Society of Missouri AND the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. There is some confusion as to whether she came is second, as I was told by the Humane Society spokes woman, or third. The Post has her has the second place winner, but the HS has her listed in third. Either way our kitty is going places and impressing people! So check the websites out.

The "New" Busch

Kev and I, along with the rest of the G family toured the new Busch tonight. Although we were sad to see the "old" Busch go, the new stadium is really cool. We took a ton of pictures (119 to be exact) and we thought we would post some of the best of them. Enjoy and Go Cards!

The "Redbirds" on the ends of the seats. This one looks a little shifty!!
