Fun stuff and other stuff.
This past weekend Robert's friends Scottie and Kristen visited. It was a pretty entertaining weekend, we slept in a lot (yay!!). Saturday we went to IHOP for brunch and then saw Green Lantern- I thought it was a pretty good movie, Ryan Reynolds plays a good superhero. Then we played disc golf, my arm/shoulder still has some residual soreness from ( Read more... ) -
Thoughts on today's committee meeting
Today was my second committee meeting, I think it went pretty well ( Read more... ) -
Are you a Dukie?
For the first time since we've moved here (so... 1.5 months at least?) I am FINALLY sitting at my desk! I fixed the cracked faceplate that the handymen never came back for so I can plug all of my stuff in. Huzzah!! It's nice to be able to use my big monitor and real keyboard again ( Read more... ) -
What an armhole!
So Jim the handyman and his electrician were randomly back today to finish the electrical job, but they need a saw or chisel or something to finish 2 of the sockets now. At least they made an appointment with Robert to come back tomorrow for sure, so by then I will finally get to sit at my desk for the first time in 1.5 months!! Ah! My laptop can ( Read more... ) -
Who needs a doorbell when you have a dog?)
I'm long overdue for an entry, but I think I've forgotten most things of note that have happened. We're finally starting to hang up our pictures and stuff in our new apartment, although we still need frames for a few things (which are really weird sizes). We hung our wooden Hawaii wind chime up outside and while it was slightly annoying at first ( Read more... ) -
Fruit snacks are tasty... tacos are too. But not at the same time.
I am pleased to announce that we finally got our bathroom sink fixed!! The handyman came over on Saturday and spent 2 hours with his son-in-law installing an entirely new faucet. Not sure if quite an overhaul was required, but I'm so glad not to have a swimming pool on top of my sink anymore! However, they were very messy and used my bath towel ( Read more... ) -
2 posts in as many days?? *gasp*
I forgot to mention that on Sunday we journeyed to Cleveland to see Michael graduate! It was weird in that the speeches were separate from the awarding of diplomas so we got to miss that part. Afterwards the 'rents took the guys and I out to eat in Little Italy (I never knew how close he lived to Little Italy, it's literally a block away!) and it ( Read more... ) -
I should probably post, as I'm sitting here doing nothing.
I hear the Rapture is supposed to be this Saturday. I'm hoping this is false, because I really haven't been to church at all lately and God and I just aren't as tight as we used to be. I really need to start going to church again, we've just gotten so lazy that we've fallen out of the routine. I remember my first 2 years here I used to get up ( Read more... ) -

Wouldn't it be nice if I could post an entry in a timely manner? As if ( Read more... ) -
Update Part III: Easter, etc.
Mom and Carolyn visited us about 1 weekish ago and took us to Outback. Mmmmm. :) Too bad we couldn't show them our new place at that time (or at this time, either) since it was a mess. It was nice to see them, though... plus Mom brought me cans of Skyline. :) The weekend before this, Robert and I went to Amy Jenkins' wedding over near Fremont ( Read more... )
