Frozen

I've been temping in a warehouse and while it's not bad work, there is no heat, and I am literally freezing! I freeze all day, get home, and it takes me all night to thaw out. I think I'm using up all my calories trying to stay warm, because I've had zero energy for exercise for almost three weeks now, and that's no good! Luckily I've decided to go back to subbing for the time being, so this week is my last as a human popsicle. I wear so many layers I probably waddle like the Pilsbury doughboy!

I'm really enjoying reading Kelly's blog while she's in Japan. Makes me want to move again! I can't believe there's a shrine right behind her place, and it all sounds so exciting.

Other than that, I'm just working on my thesis (gasp, I know, I am actually doing that, albeit slowly), and doing regular, boring things. But I'm quite happy nonetheless!

Birthday Party!

Saturday Dad and I had our joint birthday party. We had a good turn out. Lots of friends, food and fun! We played badminton, grilled, and when it got dark Dad lit the outdoor fireplace and we all sat around and talked. It was a great weekend!

Birthday, First Friday, etc.

Thursday was my birthday so I took off of work and Dad and I drove up to Parkville, which I had heard has a quaint old downtown. We bummed around, ate fun food, and had a nice time. If you look at the third pic you can see a train, and if you live in Europe, you now know why I get all excited by European trains.

Friday was First Fridays and my sister was selling her art work at her studio and sold both pieces right off the bat! Check that out. So we (and her friends, Mom and Joe) all walked around the other art galleries and listened to a kid rock band seriously rock out. I love First Fridays.

Megan ran her marathon yesterday! Yay! Go Meegan! Very cool my dear.

Dad and I are having our joint birthday party this next weekend. And that's about it for news!
