I have a new addiction. I got an e-mail about asking for your information to be removed for background searches, etc from a website called zabasearch.com. So, I visited the site. Holy crap! You can find anyone on here! I had a blast looking up people that I haven’t even thought about in years. You can pay for a background check (which I’m not bored enough for), and I wondered what would come up from a background check for me? That could be interesting, but not worth 20 something bucks.

Today at lunch I did the treadmill thing again. The activity center is located on the ULM campus, where I went to college. They are doing lots of renovations and it is so strange to drive by and not see the dorm where I spent my freshmen year living. It has been torn down in preparation to build new student housing. The dorm where my friend, K, lived is torn down too. The new student housing looks great, but I’m kinda sad everytime I drive by that the new students won’t have the memories of crappy washing machines and dryers, ACs and heating problems, and trying to make an ugly room look cute that we all did. Also, when I’m walking or running on the treadmill, it’s hard to believe that this much time has passed and that I’m not running with my friend A, while discussing the many ways that K drives her nuts and how sloppy and irritating he can be. I look at all the college students and wonder if I was ever that young looking. Surely I was…right?

Melissa
Melissa-Mom to LittleMan (4/04); wife to LuckyHusband; full-time toxicologist; full-time housekeeper; full-time domestic laundromat manager (washes all the clothes); full-time domestic finance manager (pays all the bills and yells at husband for spending too much money on fishing stuff); and Keeper of the Cheerios. Lives in a tiny town; spends tons of time with family; reads; enjoys crafts. Can change a diaper, fill a sippy cup, and put on a toddler's shoes in 15.4 seconds flat, all while calculating the impact of petroleum hydrocarbons to a nearby surface water body (watch for me in the Toddler Olympics on CBS this fall). Addicted to Dr. Pepper; Kit Kats; and pasta. To spot me in a crowd: I'm the one with frizzy messed-up hair, smeared graham crackers on my shirt; huge purse with a diaper peeking out, toddler on her hip, and camera in hand at all times.
