I have BIG NEWS. Yes, the kind that requires capital letters.
ROB AND I BOUGHT A HOUSE!!! Ok fine. It’s actually a detached condo. But still…
*happy dance*
It’s been a total whirlwind of a week…
- On Wednesday, we turned in our deposit (biggest check we’ve ever written) and signed 2.5 hours worth of disclosure agreements and contracts.

family portrait
In: life
1 Mar 2010Back on Valentine’s Day, my apartment community was offering a free portrait session and an 8×10 print for all residents. Because I’m a sucker for anything free, I dragged Rob AND Diesel and we took a family portrait. Thought I’d share but I’m much too lazy to clean up the scan…

valentine’s day
In: life
17 Feb 2010I’m officially giving up on the 30 Day Meme. The rest of the prompts require way too much thinking… also, L-A-Z-Y.
So what have I been doing? Mmm… watching WAY too much Olympics coverage. I’m an Olympics junkie. I’ll watch anything that NBC “packages” up in primetime — speed skating, alpine skiing, luge, etc. And of [...]
2010 resolutions
In: life
8 Jan 2010I’m one of *those* people that make New Year’s resolutions. Since I’m human, I inevitably forget all about them by the time February rolls around. But this year will be different! Let’s hope.
So here are my resolutions/wishes for 2010 (that’s twenty ten not two thousand ten)…
1. Buy a house. Rob and I are [...]

christmas wrap-up
In: life
3 Jan 2010I took down the Christmas tree and decorations today. Always makes me sad. I can’t believe how quickly the days go by now. I still have a few hours of vacation left so I thought I’d do a quick recap of my Christmas…
Thanks Carolyn for the pic!
Christmas festivities began early when Rob and I got [...]

more list blogging
In: life
14 Dec 2009I always seem to get hit with the lazy stick during the week. After work, I’m online reading various blogs or shopping but rarely feel like putting coherent thoughts together for the blog. Fail. So here’s another list because I don’t want to deal with paragraphs.
1. I am SO SICK of Tiger Woods [...]

magic(al) mountain
In: life
5 Dec 2009Last Saturday, Rob and I went to Magic Mountain with some friends. Pretty much only because we had $15 discount tickets. I haven’t been to Magic Mountain since high school (13 years ago!!!) so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was just excited to experience actual roller coasters (I mean, I love Disneyland but [...]

1 Dec 2009From one holiday to another…
*sigh* I just love Christmas time.
This year’s new ornament is one I picked up in Australia during our vacation — I’m not a good photographer at all so hopefully you can make out the Sydney Opera House in the above pic.
Now I just have to get some presents [...]
