Fun Fun Fun

(Sorry the picture are so small, I got them from my roommate and I don't know how to fix it.)

There was something missing from the decoration in our apartment and we finally figured out what was missing.
Friday night we had a late night party. Yes, those are footie pajamas.




After staying up late on Friday night I woke up Saturday morning to go watch Kathy and all of her roommates in a mini triathlon. I probably would have signed up for it but all the spots were full before I even heard about it. My intention was to work out after I watched. Kathy's old roommate Nicole and her husband Trevor were in charge ( Nicole was in my triathlon team last summer) Trevor saw me and asked me why I didn't do it and I told him why. He said they had had open spots in all of the heats so far, and that I better do it. I hadn't trained and I didn't have a swim suit or an I-card to get a swim suit. I wasn't going to do it but 15 minutes later I found my self in the swimming pool, having had no training and no breakfast. It was not a very long triathlon a 200M swim, 4 mile bike and 1 mile run. I did pretty well in swimming and biking, but by the time I got to running my lack of preparation caught up to me. It was good though. I finished in 34 minutes. Now I am pumped about doing the next 2 that are coming this semester. There will be one every month all semester each getting longer and since I'm going to train for it now I am confident that I will do better next time.

Saturday night I learned how to play the guitar. I am a fast learner.
It's amazing how good you can be at Dance Dance Revolution when you work as a team. Thats pretty much how life goes though.

Up until this weekend it has been pretty mild here. In the 20's and no snow compared to last winter when it snowed like a foot a day and was -30 for 3 weeks straight. It has been quite pleasant. You better believe that didn't last. This is what I looked like after walking home from church and this was after I had a few moments to defrost.
I actually fell for my first time ever since having been up here. I knew it would come someday and I have to say it could not have been more comical. I just so happened to be with Kathy who would give me the hardest time about it (mostly cause she knows that never happens and I always tease her because she falls at least once every other day). We were on a cross walk and 3 or 4 cars were approaching, right in the middle of the road I just slipped right on my rear. Even better I was wearing a skirt. Most of the people in the cars tried to hide that they were laughing until they passed (that was sweet haha). Really it was just funny.
