New Number
We got new phone numbers and new cell phones today. Either ask for it if you really want it, or wait for me to call you.. That's how I'm updating people. I figure if I'm not interested in calling you now, why would I ever be? If you can't wait for it just email me and I'll send it to you!
There and Back Again
1,444 miles later I arrived back in Mount Pleasant at 2:45 AM last night. 10 minutes ago I casted my vote. Awesome. Now I need to take a shower.
