South Carolina Recap

First of all, thanks for all of your suggestions regarding acne cures!  I read all of them and am definitely going to try a few out.

Did I mention I bought a bike and have been using it to get to and from campus?  I bought a relatively cheap mountain bike from Walmart a couple weeks ago and absolutely love it.  It was a little rough getting used to biking almost 2.5 miles to and from campus, but it’s also really invigorating.  It’s nice because my commute doubles as my exercise for the day!  I come home really sweaty and gross, but I don’t care - I’m not really trying to impress anyone, lol.

The wedding was beautiful.  It was a very casual, laid back wedding and we all really enjoyed the four days we spent together.  I almost went parasailing, but chickened out at the last minute; damn my anxiety!  Maybe I’ll try it another time :).  We also tried out a few bars in HH - interesting stories that I wish I could share, but some things are just better left unsaid.  Just think - what normally happens on a night with lots of drinking and college students?

Hunter will not stop GROWING.  He’s over 30 lbs now and Tom and I both think he grew during the four days we were gone for the wedding.  Apparently he was quite the socialite at our friends’ houses.  He’s kind of a handful right now - moreso than before - because if we say no, he barks and runs around so we’ll chase him.  I wish I knew The Dog Whisperer, Cesar Milan, on a personal level.  He’d be on my cell phone speed dial!

Time to do some reading and prepare for my morning class.  I’ve still got to make my lunch, too.  I’ll leave you with a sweet picture of Romeo and Hunter (I really caught them like this, it was not posed).

    Kansas City is not a very “pedestrian friendly” city. I love it in the sense of, it’s my home and I grew up here, but it drives me nuts that it’s so hard to walk or ride a bicycle around town. Of course, our cities are more spread out than a lot of east coast cities. But also, there are sidewalks on only maybe half of the streets, and no bike lanes. Plus there are no pedestrian bridges to get over the highways. So, it’s pretty much out of the question to walk, run, or ride a bicycle to work or to the store… unless of course you are semi-suicidal and enjoy running across interstates on foot.

    I’m glad you had a good time at the wedding. And I am tempted to ride my bike to work every day, it’s probably close to 3 miles away but I’d have to go on US 19. I wish I was close to my work so I could ride my bike like that! I’m jealous! :)

    I know a little about dog behavior (that little dog I had was really shy!) but if you have questions just leave me a message on my comments or I think you may still have my email address? (not the one that I use on blogs, that’s my spam mail! lol)
