Cracker Barrel
So I just ate at a Cracker Barrel in Missoula, Montana. I was too excited. I think the waitress was a bit concerned about it. Anyway, it was good. Also, it's the highest North of any Cracker Barrel, barely edging out Bismark, North Dakota. Yay.

Bad Baby Names
I just stumbled across a site I had to share. Baby's Named a Bad, Bad Thing
Basically this woman has been browsing baby name forums and collecting the best of the worst.
Names with extra 'y's (Madyson)
Weird Spellings (like Zebrena for Sabrina)
Names whose meanings are totally off (like girls names that mean 'son of', madison and mackenzie being the most popular)
Use of Nouns and Verbs as names (meander, clay)
Also Themed families. (all with the same initial or similar meaning)
There are several very amusing comments though they do get old. One of the most disturbing discoveries is that people are actually naming their kids things like Nevaeh. Heaven spelled backwarks. Why!?!

One Month
In one month I will be moving back home. As always the military has messed with my plans, so now my husband will be deploying and I will be headed back east to finish my senior year. We were going to be seperated anyway, but a deployment makes it worse, and it will be for much more time than we planned.
My brother is coming out to visit and help, and then we'll begin a long road trip home.
How soon is too soon to start packing?

The Life of Pi
I recently read The Life of Pi, and I don't want to give much away, so I'm just going to say, I liked the story, the ending was weird, but now that I've thought about it I like the ending too.
Overall, I recommend The Life of Pi, it has a lot of interesting things going on, but is a pretty easy, and enjoyable read. (well, enjoyable as a shipwreck and being lost at sea can be)
If you've read it I'd love to talk about it more.
