3rd times a charm....

So my first attempt at blogging was over a year ago... it lasted about a year with a grand total of 13 posts in that time.  We can all agree that's a pretty pitiful attempt.  Over this last semester I had to do a blog about reading for a class at JHU and it has revived my blogging spirit.  I really hope this is a way for me to keep in touch with people I am not able to talk to everyday.  Laura- emails are great, but I miss telling you stupid little things about my day (for those of you who don't know Laura... she and I shared a door at school last year and now she lives overseas.... ).  So here it goes.  3rd try.  Keep your fingers crossed.
