Why am I not surprised

It never fails to amaze me how easily a person can change. Actually no I take that back, I don't think people change. I think if you see a different side of a person, it actually always there...you just never noticed. Maybe because you were too caught up in the "romance" (Or lack thereof) or the situation or relationship, or maybe because you chose to turn a blind eye. It absolutely confirms my thought that you see what you want to see - or reality is how you preceive the truth.
I guess the hints were always there. The little moments that caused me to stop and think, "wait...what?" But then I pushed it out of my mind, because I saw what I wanted to see and ignored everything that told me otherwise. It's also amazing how many different situations this thought applies to.
So here is my philosophy on how to judge character:

You can tell a lot about a person by the way he handles four things: a rainy day, the elderly, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

On a completely different note, it's absolutely nothing short than miraculous that I have the 3 best friends in the entire universe to bring me back to my senses. It blows my mind how blessed I am to have these three amazing girls.
...And some one kind of new who sparked my interest and takes my mind off everything else crazy...hm.

Weekend

As promised, here's a blog about my weekend - I know you've been sitting on the edge of your rolly computer chair waiting for it with bated breath. Friday after my guitar class, which went not-so-fabulously, as per usual, Chris and I had a little adventure to Harpoon Brewery where we met up with my ever beloved (and apparently much talked about) bff Dave. It took us a little adventuring and a little guessing to get there but we made it there and home with lots of "I have a hunch this is the way to go"-ing. It convinced me fully that we'd be great on a European back-packing trip together. We don't fight, we don't argue, we don't get frustrated, we just laugh and follow our gut. Which led us to beer! Isn't that what Germany is all about?  Anyway, Harpoon was awesome. You just go, hear about beer, and drink all you want. I picked up a growler of the cider - highly recommended. We literally guessed what bus to get on to get home and turns out it led...

Stop Shoulding all over yourself

Yesterday I went on Cor Jesu's Vivare "young alumni" retreat. My friend from high school Katie posted it on my wall a few weeks ago and tagged a couple other CJ sisters to the post and it struck my interest. I haven't done a single thing with CJ since I graduated and somewhere between moving to Boston and joining the triathlon team my Catholic past was put on the backburner. I figured I had nothing to lose except a Saturday and at the very least I'd get to hang out with my friends so I signed up and sent in my $25 without much thought.  I've never been the most devout Catholic. Most times in church I'm scanning the crowd for familiar faces, zoning out, and making Target lists- and that's if I go at all. Sunday is usually run-day...or ski day. Or sleep in day. Or study day. Or vacuum day. Whatever day it is...it's rarely church day. Despite being raised by two Catholic parents, going to a Catholic grade school and a Catholic high school, going o...

Plan 2

So Chris isn't entering active duty until 2013. Therefore, in order to get a job, he now needs a resume.  This is a little something Chris, the team and I have been working on. With all these skills, Chris and I are going to be millionaires by 30. A Brewmaster's Resume
