I have a big white bandage on my chin today.
It has been there all day.
I kept pointed it out to people, you know, to make sure that they didn't miss the completely obvious white bandage on my chin.
I tired to tell people that I was in a bar fight or that I was kick boxing or that someone mugged me...
The truth is I had a mole removed.
Apparently no one knew I had this mole because when I would tell them I had a mole removed from my chin they were like, "you had a mole on your chin?"
The best quote of the day was, "Your mole wasn't even noticeable Anne but that bandage totally is!"

la crosse, wi
I will be in La Crosse, WI in twelve hours.
Jake and I are leaving at 9 am.
I will be with all of the Ingmans at 5 pm for dinner in La Crosse, WI.
Ben is graduating on Saturday.
I will be returning to one of my most favorite places in the world.
I spent four years of my life there.
Jake and I fell in love in La Crosse, WI while I was living there and he was living in Ames, IA.
Now I live in Ames, IA and now we are both going back to La Crosse, WI, together.
I cannot wait to see Ben; freak out because I am bursting with excitement...and then start to annoy him because I will probably be too excited about EVERYTHING; share a hotel room with Mary and Katie; see all my old professors and eat at the Communication Studies breakfast which I just did four years ago!
I will be in La Crosse, WI in twelve hours.
I need to go to bed.

turned around
In just 25 hours (including seven hours in the car and seven hours sleeping) I stopped in Northfield for a backyard BBQ; continued on to to St. Paul to stayed up late laughing and catching up with Allisa and Delip; woke up early with Thelma and Allisa to met Amanda, Matt, Paige, and Luke at Nina's for an almond croissant and cappuccino; got my hair cut on Grand Avenue; met back up with Matt, Amanda, and Paige for an impromptu photo shoot; chatted about life with Paige in her downtown loft; picked up a strawberry shake at Snuffy's and a delicious margarita pizza at Punch; got back in my car and turned around.

took two
I started working on my Alaskan scrapbook, from the trip I took two years ago...I have stuffed it away for that long...not because I didn't like the trip or the photos but because I am a PROCRASTINATOR and PERFECTIONIST.
Feels good though, to start something you have been thinking about for a long time.

enough chairs
I had a party last night for some of the students I have worked with for the past seven months.
I invited them over to my apartment for treats and games, a little fun away from work and a kick off for finals week.
I made pizza, my mom's famous bean/chip dip, and cookies.
I bought Apples to Apples at Target the night before because it is the best game ever. I even bought Dr. Pepper, Dubble Bubble, Blow Pops and Reese's Pieces.
I prepared all day for the party.
They ate the food I made and loved the game I bought! They told me they would have played all night but they had finals to study for and papers to write.
It was a great feeling to have people over to my place...even if my studio apartment doesn't have enough chairs and I had to get my camping chair from my trunk so they could all have a place to sit!
