I went to Country USA last night with Sue (Kuba’s sister) and her daughter, Nicole and her boyfriend, Rick. I had a blast, but lost my voice from screaming trying to win backstage passes to see Josh Turner or Carrie Underwood (or, as the announcer kept saying, Wonderwood, which is what I suppose she gives you. ;) ). All I could think about was how seeing Josh Turner would let me get his autograph to send to you – and I got it on our anniversary! It’d be the perfect birthday present, but I didn’t win. I was just glad to go. The new grounds are HUGE – 500 acres of NOTHING. I’ve got a few great pictures, the sunset was amazing, and hearing him sing our song – I could’ve sworn you were standing next to me, whispering “Happy Birthday, Baby” in my ear.

I miss you madly, and hope all is well. Other good news – WE GOT THE APARTMENT! My schedule for the next day is RIDICULOUS – I work 7-4 axletech, 6:30-close Vicky’s, then OPEN tomorrow at Vicky’s 7:30-11:30 and have an on-call 12-4. If they keep me I’ll kill them. My mom keeps telling me to call in sick! Haha you know it’s bad when SHE tells me to – she’s the one who kept yelling they were going to fire me!

I love you, and can’t wait to go WITH you next year.

I'm just excited we have the apartment, and I'm hoping to see Little Big Town on Sunday night. WHOO! ok, back to work...
