for the first time in 3 years, i will be in the motherland (pequot) for the fourth of july.
darren's family has a cabin in baxter (haha). we're going up wednesday night (the 2nd), which means that, assuming my boss approves my request for time off, i will only work 3 days next week. la!
edit: time off approved.
we had also talked with some friends about going to the cabin the following weekend sans baxter parents, or to a different place in crosslake. and there's a plan in the works for the pequots to head up to kate's grandparents' lake place the weekend after that, so here's hoping there's three weekends of lake country goodness in my near future.

for the last 3 days i've woken up to a message written on the bathroom mirror. wednesday's was my favorite- a drawing of a space helmet right where my face is, with the line "i'd love you even if you were an astronaut or darth vader." and a drawing of darth underneath.

we just got back from the bohlinger wedding reception at anna's parents' house in balsam lake. we hitched a ride with derek and mike and it was an amusing time both ways.
the wedding last night was lovely. anna looked amazing of course. also, delicious cake. good choice.
today was sweet. totally chill; everyone pretty much ate and mingled. mike and derek brought their "instruments," as instructed by anna's father, so we had a hippie corcle going for a while. it was good too see a lot of people from concordia, like josiah and fink and mike z. music was played, there was much laughing. a quality reception, i would say.
bonus: there was a lot of leftover wine and anna's dad told us to take it. so there was a bit of a wine-grabbing free-for-all, and we now have 5 bottles of chardonnay sitting on the counter. thanks guys!
i love jon and anna.
and now i don't have any weddings to go to until... probably josh and amanda's next may. sweet.

i agree that election day should not be on a weekday.
also, i went to the dentist yesterday and it was awesome. i spent 20 minutes waiting but getting the filling took less than 10, and there was only about 3 seconds of pain. win!
speaking of the dentist, the first visit consisted of a consult, 20 x-rays, and a cleaning. total cost: something like $260. cost to me? $53. another win!
um. the end?

dear concordia:
wow, fuck you guys. i wish i could have a re-do and go to a university that's not a bunch of bigoted, puritan-esque witch hunters.
first randy, now keith. what's next? will sexual orientation become an admissions requirement?
what an embarassment.

darren and i did some gardening today. there's a nursery down the block so we purchased various plants. there are eight planting areas surrounding the building, and our downstairs neighbor filled the one outside her window with a bunch of potted and planted plants, so we decided to take over an unused area. we got some cilanto, sage, radishes, a habanero plant, sweetpea flowers, and redwing onions, which look like chives. after i get paid on tuesday i'm going to go back for some catnip and some lilies.
i hope the city wildlife doesn't eat our plants. i also hope it rains like it's supposed to.
now, laundry and guitar hero.

can we just talk about my boobs for a second?
i went to the rosedale mall with brenna yesterday and ended up at victoria's secret. 5 for $25 underwear, for the win. i also decided it was time for a fancy, unnecessarily expensive new bra, which led me to an interesting discovery. my nice, normal looking 36B chest has jumped to 36C. still nice and normal looking, but still. and probably once my body comes out of hibernation... well, we'll see what happens.
in other news... a list!
darren's bike got stolen on saturday. sucks. it's kind of a shitty bike too, so sucks for whoever stole it.
i went swimming (for free!) with brenna on monday at the new oxford pool. we had waterslide races.
frisbee golf is one of my new most favorite things ever, even though i've only done it twice. and i suck. although i get better with more beer. i might have to invest in some discs of my own (this is not the first time i've said such a thing).
my newest beverage addiction of choice is arizona southern style sweet tea.
WoW still annoys me, especially when darren doesn't roll into bed until 5:30 am because he's been playing all fricking night.
eric, my cube neighbor, keeps a bowl of jolly ranchers on his desk. the blue ones are my favorite.
i'm going home.

you know, darren doesn't eat cookie dough. because there's raw eggs in it and he doesn't want to get sick. apparently he believes in the myth that is salmonella.
psh. more cookie dough for me. kate and i determined a long time ago that salmonella is something parents make up to keep their kids from eating the dough.
