JULIAN!!!

My friend Jessica finally posted some video footage of our time in Africa. Here's Julian!!!

The strangest places...

Sometimes life just interrupts you in the strangest places. As I'm sitting here mindlessly watching TV (Scrubs - old school episodes), my brain picks up on this line:
"I love you, and there's nothing you can do about it."
I couldn't tell you why, but that right there was the best part of my day. Thanks life :)

Moo

Two posts in one day!! Yup... because this was too funny not to share.

Merry (early) Christmas to me!

So today Sherlock and I went down to Boulder to order my new car. Sherlock was very happy as everyone loved on him a lot (of course) and he got to test out the back of the model of the new car to make sure it was puppy-worthy. As they did not have something close to the car I want on the lot (or in nearby dealerships) I decided since I am paying the $$ for a new car, I want what I want, and I'm willing to wait for it. So my new car is being ordered and I will (hopefully) have it before Christmas! I'm very excited :) Here's a picture of the car (2011 Subaru Impreza Hatchback). Mine will be a beautiful sparkly dark grey.

Hi

Yup, I'm thinking you're probably surprised that there's a new post, but it's true!! I just haven't felt like there was much going on that was blogworthy for the past couple of weeks. School is ok. My class is great and certainly makes me smile every day. On the other hand, things outside of my class are still pretty stressful, and the atmosphere of the school is just not as positive as it was last year, so that is frustrating. My team rocks though, and we have a lot of fun together.
Outside of school life is pretty good. It's fall in the mountains and that makes me happy on a daily basis. I love the sunshine during the day and the snuggly chilly nights (especially when it means that a certain big, fat, grey feline cuddles up with me.) I'm not spending my entire life at school this year, which is nice as I have time to spend with friends and be outside with my pooperdog.
In other news, I am still getting things together to buy a new car. I'm thinking in the next month or so I'll be ready to pull the trigger, but I have to go talk to the Subaru lady and work out all the details. I'm already planning a spring break road trip somewhere with the pooperdog... maybe to visit all my California friends as I haven't seen many of them in way too long :)
So, as you can see, nothing really that exciting going on here, but I thought it was time to give you an update anyway. Hope all is well in your corner of the world, and remember that you're welcome to visit here anytime! :)
