Good luck Justin!

Justin took his PE today! He spent the night in Columbia last night so he could be up bright an early to take his exam. I didn't sleep great last night, I never do when he's away. I have to check all the closets twice and  turn the lights off in order as I walk to the room (so I'm never walking in the dark). Once, I slept with mace in my hand until my finger slipped and went under the finger shield. Thankfully, I didn't spray myself in the face but I thought, "You idiot, you deserve to spray yourself in the face with mace." I don't know when I got so reliant on Justin for protection. Especially when we all know that his only response to danger is flight-or-flight! lol! He jokes that he doesn't have to outrun the murderer, he just has to outrun me!

Anywho, Justin began the exam at 0800 and didn't finish until after 1700. He said his brain was just mush towards the end. I gave him my lucky penny. It's a penny that my dad had cranked in one of those machines you see at fairs. It says "Dad loves Jesica," dated July 21st, 1985. I carried it down the isle when Justin and I got married. I'd say it's brought me luck. :o) I'm so proud of Justin, he worked so hard to study for this exam. I can't think of a better way to celebrate than a trip to Europe!!

I've got to run so we can finish packing. I'm still not sure what I'm doing when it comes to packing for two weeks abroad but I figure there's nothing I really need that I can't buy there. Tomorrow is Dad's birthday so first we're going to Aiken to celebrate with a "burnin'" and watching the Clemson game against GA Tech. Go Tigers!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!
