Last week was spring break at MTSU. My husband was off, but since I am staff I still had to work - but at least no class that week. Anyway, a friend who also works at MTSU and I decided to take a day off mid-week and drive down to Atlanta for the day.

I took this picture at the aquarium. I have to say, that though the aquarium was pretty nice - my friend and I liked the one in Chattanooga way better. However, the Atlanta aquarium has the added bonus that it's next door to World of Coke - where, yes, we each tried every single soda they had set up for tasting (and we wondered why we felt ill afterwards). Other than drinking entirely too much soda, we had a fun day.

Also, I got one of my dogs a new ball for his birthday. He really loves it -

The voices that you can't really make out are the tv, but I have a voiceover saying "Hartley's new toy." After viewing this video, you can probably guess why my husband and I regret buying Hartley this ball.

OMG that ball would drive me and the cats nuts., hhahaha

My cats have a mousie like that it makes highpitched squeeky noises and occasionally it gets "lost."

My husband hid the ball in our pantry one night and when it went off at 2am, Hartley just about broke the cabinet apart trying to get the ball. We're just hoping the battery dies soon.

I have to admit, The Georgia Aquarium is nice, but I really like the Ripley's Aquarium in Gatlinburg the best by far!
