Easter weekend was too short for me. Even though I did not have school on Friday, I still would have liked more time off! I think it would make more sense to have Monday off rather than Friday so I wouldn't have to drive back to Austin on Easter.
David came over for dinner and met the whole crew - Dad, Mom, Val, Jason, Emma, Zeb, and Andrew. He passed the "test" and everyone liked him. The next night I went over to his parents house for dinner. I learned a new card game and of course, won both hands we played! I tend to be fairly lucky in cards, especially the first time I play a game.
School is pretty stressful nowadays what with Math TAKS test right around the corner. Everyone is tense and trying to cram and review everything in the next 2 weeks. I am feeling pretty crummy again...chest congestion and sore throat. Seriously, I am so over getting sick.
Tonight I made my own Spinach Artichoke Dip and garlic shrimp with rice. The food was pretty great, but I burned the heck out of my arm. I ignored it when it happened and then it just kept expanding. I had some people over for wine and dip and they kept pointing out how bad the burn was looking. It's a good thing I have a high pain tolerance. Plus, I think my arm took some of the attention off my throat. I'm hoping this sucker doesn't blister or scar...

Dinner sounded delicious and you have to remember: cold water/ice on burn right away keeps the doctor away(eating an apple does too)
Actually tepid water, not cold or ice, is the best treatment for a burn. The quicker you get it in water, the less the blistering. Moms always know best!
