My husband bought me ankle weights today

Today has been a crazy day. Homework straight for over twelve hours.
Yuck.
At least most of this homework involved a sewing machine and paper cutters.
I made this:


It's a light fixture made out of about 1000 parchment paper circles. This is a pretty bad picture of it and as soon as I install it, I will probably take more pictures. No promises though.
I still have three pages to write tonight and six by Tuesday. Then there is a research paper due by Thursday and two of my finals are a week from this Monday.
To top it all off, the company I work for is going to be featured on a certain website starting this Friday and will make my work life crazier than usual for the next week and a half. (I am not sure if I am supposed to keep this under the radar or not...)
In other news, I am in love with these new flowers:
Super cute, right? They are my new favorite. I will probably end up buying a dozen of each color before I leave. Yours truly may or may not have put them online with no help. I am such a secret computer nerd. I was only sad that I was not asked to use HTML or Java in order to put them on our website. I was pretty proud of myself.
Last but not least, the freakiest thing happened to me at work yesterday.
**phone rings**
"Katelyn and Company, this is Laura." I expected a woman's voice to answer me.
"Yes, Laura? I was browsing around and had a few questions for you." A man with a southern accent was on the other end and I could not understand the first thirty seconds of what he was saying. "I noticed that you have a few guns and I need to get one before January. Let's say someone was coming after me. Would a 22 take them out or would you recommend a different gun for me?"
I hesitated and then hung up the phone as quickly as possible.
For some reason it scared me to pieces for a few minutes.
After that, my co-workers and I discussed what we would do if a crazy man came into our office.

Don't worry. I have my plans. No, I will not put them down here for you to plot against me.
