Talk about past mistakes coming and biting in the ass...uh, foot.

I just cut my foot open on wood pile in the middle of my room. No, I'm not planning on starting a bonfire in Rich, though a s'more would be nothing less than delectable right now. And I'm not sending my dorm up in flames, either...I doubt the carpet would catch on fire anyway after all that flooding that went on last week.
So this wood deal. There's 5 chunks of wood piled in the middle of my room because drunk Katie decided it was socially acceptable to go absolutely ape-shit on her furniture last weekend.
Basically I came in at 4:30 am, pissed off to no end and emotionally distraught. Obviously the first thing I did was to change...and my jammed drawer was the only thing in my way. So if you would have happened to walk in at ohhh say...4:37 am or so? You would have seen Katie, in her matching underwear and bra, ripping apart a drawer.
If I had been a little less dramatic and emotional I would have done what I always do and take the top drawer out, push down the clothes and then pull it out but....
So now I have five pieces of wood on my floor and a giant hole in my dresser.
How the hell do I explain this one to maintenance? I sincerely hope they don't keep record of each student's room...because if they were to look at mine they would see that last year's maintenance calls included fixing my ripped apart desk drawer and a giant hole in my ceiling.
Now I just need to decide which one of my engineering friends I want to rope into rebuilding my room.

Love love love,
me

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
