So the softball team I coach decided to take a trip to Florida for Spring Break this year. Now, I can assure you that even though it is my senior year of college....again...there is nothing I'd rather do than drive two 14 passenger vans loaded with high school girls and gear for 24 hours.
We've been looking into all kinds of options and finally found a great field in Florida to go to for a reasonable cost. We looked into hotels, food, prices, etc. and the only thing left to do was look into getting our two vans so the other coach and I could drive the girls down. After two hours of calling I finally found a place that had two available in Madison! It finally looked as if it was all coming together until we came across a slight glitch...
I am too young to rent a car!
I'm glad it's ok for me to take 14 underage girls out of state as their guardian for a week, just not in a rented vehicle.
On to plan B...stay tuned :)

Hey FOLKS!
SOOOOOO, it's been a while....like half a year. But, I decided to throw one out there on this rainy day!
Things in Madison are going well. I'm student teaching 7th grade at Hamilton Middle School and totally loving it. I would LOVE to get a job in a middle school next year but we'll see how things go.
I also just got a job at the one and only SUPERTarget in Fitchburg so I'll be working there in the meat department. Rock on! It's as close to Walmart and Kwik Trip as I can get right now so I'll take it and hope to move up ;)
Anyways, in 6 months, that's about all I got. Later folks!

Spring Break= Girl Gone Wild!
So, my cousin CC requested that I dedicate a blog specifically to the crazy spring break I have planned next week. Let me tell you, it's a doozy! As you will see, I plan on doing all your typical Girls Gone Wild things...... just in my own way since I have to student teach in Madison over break :) Woooo-hooooo let the fun begin!
Day One:
1. Student Teach
2.Soak up some rays....by hitting up the local tanning bed. No waiting since everyone else actually IS on break getting tan!
3. Softball practice.
Day Two:
1. Student Teach
2. Act like a star by going to the spa for a hairstyle...by using my $5 haircut coupon at Great Clips!
3. Softball Practice.
4. Curl up with a hot firefighter in bed.....by watching my latest Netflix delivery: Rescue Me- Season Two.
Day Three:
1. Student Teach
2. Celebrate my spring break with loads of alcohol....by downing a bottle of Nyquil to kill the cold I probably got during day One or Two from one of my students.
3. Softball Practice.
Day Four:
1. Student Teach
2. Strip down to my underwear....so that I can do my wash across the street since our washer's spin cycle broke.
3. Softball Practice.
4. Gourmet steak dinner....since Healthy Choice had a $2.50/unit sale at Wal-Mart this week!
Day Five:
1. Student Teach.
2. Bed...to recover from my wild and crazy Spring Break!
Don't you wish you were living the crazy college life like me?!?! I thought so!!!! WHOOOO-HOOO!

Kwik-y
Aunt M.C.- Let me know if this was an acceptable blogging topic approved for your list you provided me with :) You do know you can call me, too, to get the scoop.
The big news is I got a new job...at Denny's! I quit 2 days later. Now, let me clarify. I have never before quit a job so this was new territory for me. I made a list of things I wanted to do in 2009 and getting a waitress job was one of them. Quitting was not. However, long story short, when the manager told me they wouldn't serve black people I kindly told them I subsiquently would not work there. Easy come easy go...I'm still babysitting, tutoring, and working in the school of ed. office.
Next on the 2009 to-do list...running a half-marathon. I just paid my fee yesterday and start training tomorrow (Fat Tuesday and running just seem like a bad idea!). Anyone up for a race May 24th?!?! COME ON DOWN to Madtown :)
And the BIG news is I got another new job: talk about how everything works out for a reason.... I'm officially the assistant Varsity Softball Coach at Madison West! How cool is that?!?! I am very excited and the season starts in 18 days...not that I'm counting or anything :) The team has a pretty poor record but then again they've never had a Curtis in the program!
Anyways, that's about all the news I've got. No Spring Break plans b/c I don't have a spring break; UW and the Madison School District are on two different schedules. BUT, I am totally enjoying student teaching. My class is awesome and those kids have given me enough stories to last a lifetime.
Hope you're all well in LaCrosse...I mean everywhere! :)
