Oh, yay! I have been thinking about you Beth, but of course I am horrible at actually doing anything about it. How is Chicago? what have you been doing there? Also, you should click on where it says "bed" because it shows a google map search for "Bed" and where bed apparently is. Haha.
HA- I didn't even notice the "bed" thing, and it makes me laugh. Ahh...live journal has changed - I need to catch up with the new times!
I was just recently thinking about you too because I was reminiscing with Pat about drum corp days and it made me think of you. How's life going for you these days? Chicago's pretty good. I haven't found a job that actually USES my degree, so that's been quite frustrating, but I'm enjoying the snow and there's so much to do in the city, so I've been keeping myself busy. I miss you!
Aw, drum corps days. I miss corps so much! :( Life is going pretty swell. I always meant to get back to you when we were talking after the whole Hillsboro debacle this summer but I totally was not in a good place and I really appreciated your message. Anyway, I worked those things out and got in really nicely with teaching at Sheldon and Willamette, and I'm actually going to be writing Willamette's drill next fall. Instead of finding a job that uses my degree, I found a job that uses a degree I don't have... I'm an aide at an elementary school now which is absolutely the best thing that's ever happened to me. So now I've decided that I want to teach elementary school for real and so this term I'm taking some undergrad prereqs for the ed. program, along with working at the school. I bet the city must be so exciting! I'd love to hear more! My boyfriend is applying to grad schools all around the country, but including wisconsin which is pretty close to where you are I think! So I'll have to keep you updated... crazy!!! I miss you! How is

welcome back! i'm soooo looking forward three things... 1. reading about your new and exciting life with your awesome man ;) 2. getting that snow! 3. seeing you when you visit!!! definitely keep me posted to when youre coming around these parts because i want to hang out FOR SURE!
Ok, I'm still working on the snow thing. I'll let you know as soon as I have a major breakthrough. (maybe I should hire a scientist or a genius to help me out with this!) And I'll be coming back to Oregon sometime in March or April, so I'll definitely let you know because I'd LOVE to see you. I was sad because I missed Amazing Race on Sunday, but I'm soooooo glad to hear that Jen and Nate were eliminated. She drove me crazy! I like TK and Rachel and the Chicago grandfather/grandson team (just because they crack me up). *sigh* Amazing Race nights were the best.
