I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!

For some reason I felt compelled to post an update.

I survived "busy season" as an auditor. And just as soon as I thought I'd have some free time....WEDDING FESTIVITIES BEGIN!!! I have 3 showers next week. Not to mention I have to actually pick up where I left off on the wedding planning. Needless to say, it kind of fell to the wayside Jan-now. Woops. I think we'll make it though. Just 46 more days and I can relax on the beaches of Riviera Maya, Mexico. I'm so excited!! Check out our awesome resort! Let me just add that I have not enjoyed planning a wedding at all. I knew I should've trusted my instincts and eloped. Then again, I'm not one of those girls that has had her wedding day planned out since she was 8. Heck, just 3 years ago I was claiming that I was NEVER getting married. Funny how a certain someone can change things.

I'm getting really excited about moving to Nashville. I've always said that's where I was moving, but then after college, I just accepted the first job offer in Huntsville. Then I decided that I loved working there and was not moving to Nashville for Jason without a fight! I still love where I work. I absolutely love the people and it's been good experience. I just think it's time to move on. And Nashville will be perfect! I will never have to miss a concert on a weeknight again!! I can listen to live music every night my little heart desires!

Speaking of which, I had my first and second "celebrity sighting" in Nashville this weekend. Well not including that one time we saw all of the members of Relient K sitting around the table in Matt Hoopes kitchen -- but that was more like "celebrity stalking" so we don't count it. ;) But FINALLY! I WOULD be the one to never see anyone famous. I mean we were in freaking LA (I always thought that was a guaranteed celeb sighting) and never saw a single celebrity!! Anyway, Dave Barnes - in the flesh - was sitting 15 feet away from us at Pei Wei in Green Hills. I was so close to asking him how much he'd charge to sing at our wedding. Either that or complain that I pre-ordered his new CD (came out on April 1) and STILL have not received it!!!! So much for trying to be a supportive fan! Instead....I left him alone like a good Nashvillian. After that, we were shopping around the Green Hills mall and walked right past Dan Haseltine (from Jars of Clay). I gasped, nudged Jason, Ole Dan made eye contact with me, I got embarrassed. He was probably surprised that anyone would actually recognize him. No one gets past me!! haha.

Ummm. I guess that's about all I have that's blog worthy right now. I really am going to try to start writing more. Then when I get married me and Jason will probably start a "cool" blog about "The Mays". We try to pretend like we'll have something interesting to write about when in actuality it will probably just be pictures of the dog we will be getting. Ta-ta for now.
