Duck Duck Villa

I worked today at building an outdoor house for the ducks. I only have wood scraps to work with so it's truly looking like a shanty. I think I may have finished, but my drill ran out of batteries. So now it's break time and Jackie and I are feasting on organic cocoa clouds and beer. This is the life.

Here's a mini rant. I cannot believe how many statements we get in the mail from iowa student loans. Between Matt and I we get 4 to 6 a month and we have automated payments so we don't really need to get any at all. Some say "your payment will be due in one week" then the next one is "your payment was payed online, thank you" and then every time you call them to change something, they send you one telling you that you called. CRAZY PEOPLE.
