Back in Business

So.  It’s been a while!  In case you’re wondering, I decided to take most of October off to do some pretty important things.  Here’s what we’ve been up to:

HARVEST

Obviously, the month of October normally constitutes a large portion of harvest, particularly harvesting soybeans.  This is the time of year where we get done bitching that it didn’t rain all summer/we ran the irrigators 24/7 and start bitching that it’s too wet and beans won’t cut.  But this year was supposed to be different.  Yes, this summer was dry and hot BUT that means harvest should’ve started and ended earlier than normal.  So…

MIZZOU!

Adam planned a special birthday trip to Mizzou.  He figured harvest was so early that surely he’d be done in plennnnnnnnty of time to leave town.  Right.  Like every year, just as soon as you start picking beans, “rainy season” is upon us.  We had more rain in the month of October than we’d had for the entire YEAR up to that point.  Either way, we had a great time and the beans were still waiting for us when we came home.

MADONNA

My book club planned a trip to see Madonna in St. Louis right before my 30th birthday.  She was over 2.5 hours late but, hey, it’s Madonna!  What a show.  I’d share my  photos from the concert but I think you can all guess what iPhone 4 pictures from the 300 level look like (if not, just imagine TV “snow”).

BLOG REDESIGN!

You likey?  Me likey.  Duh, of course, it’s purple.  The revisions aren’t 100% finished but I am so pumped!  My design guru, Holly, kicked major ass once again.

Now.  As I mentioned, the revisions are still being ironed out but there is one HUUUUUUUUUGE update coming by the end of the month.

I can’t give you an exact date yet, but get excited!  Stay tuned!
