Promises

Let it be known that today is the day that Christopher sent the following text (I'm documenting for future reference):

*Context: I was discussing how I wouldn't mind Boston being haunted during the blackout because ghosts are cool and Boston would have some really good ghosts (Hello, John Adams..Sam Adams...John Hancock...maybe Paul Revere? Not sure where he died...anyway...

Chris: Can we please not have a haunted house dear? I don't like the ghosts.
Katie: Ok okkk fineee
Chris: You can have anything you want except ghosts

I repeat, "you can have anything you want except ghosts."

Perfect! Cause I had some stuff in mind...

Two husky puppies, a dwarf bunny, maybe a rat (I need to save at least one from biomedical engineering *cough*dave!*cough*), definitely some horses with a big cedar barn, a sweet basement with a big screen tv and laziboy recliners (the leather kind with cup holders), a spinning room with a projector, a guitar room, a hunter-green Jeep Grande Cheroke, a cabin located so deep in Colorado that's only accessible by 4-wheel drive vehicles, and maybe a timeshare somewhere really cool like New Zealand.

Oh, and a hottub. If I'm going to be living somewhere like Utah I definitely need a hottub session after mountain repeats on the bike, cross country skiing, climbing, and backpacking trips.

Well, that's just a start. Now if Christopher could just invent one thing that everyone in the world needs that they don't know they need, we'll be set...

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
