I hope you all aren't getting bored yet

So the cat is gone . . . the eye problems not so much.
So in case you were all wondering here's the updated thoughts on my move to the grand old state of Colorado. While there are a lot of things that I miss and that I wish were different, there's also a lot more things and people that I wouldn't know had I never decided to at least give this a try. I would have never met Liz, Tyler, Whitey, Braden, Bill, Audra, etc . . . I never would have tried snowboarding. I wouldn't know all the kids that I currently do. I wouldn't have seen the mountains. I wouldn't have space away from my family to try to find my identity, to try to heal old wounds, and to try to refind my confidence in myself. I wouldn't get to hang out with my best friend nearly as much as I do now. I wouldn't be in love with a bad behaving little schnoodle. Yes there would have been a lot of pluses to staying in the STL (such as my dad and brother, some of my good friends, St Louis sports, etc. . .), but you only live once and I think in the long run if nothing else I tried something fun. I feel quite certain that this summer will only hold more mountain adventures, hanging out with friends, fun field trips and games with the kids, visits from some of the most important people to me, time at the drive in, hiking, and much more. So in case you were wondering, there you go.
I am so HAPPY that the weather is getting so much better now. It literally changes my whole mind set and everything. I seriously think I really have seasonal affect disorder because winter is so much harder for me than the spring and summer.
I talked to Patrick (my old high school friend) yesterday. It put me in the best mood ever. I ran into him on-line and we were chatting for a minute. He was telling me how he's soon to be single cause he's gonna break up with his girlfriend. And I was like "oh becky?" And his response was "Give me a number I can reach you at right now." So he called me and made fun of me and how far behind we are because apparently he broke up with Becky like a year ago and she already slept with one of his frat brothers and had a kid. I was giving him a hard time about how close he was to being a dad. So we had a nice chat. He never fails to make me smile. (and no comments from the peanut gallery, thank you) So I can't wait till I go home sometime this summer because he still works for the Cardinals so he told me he could hook me up. Which means he'll probably be able to get me in and give me a tour and everything. I'm pumped!

How You Life Your Life

You have a good sense of self control and hate to show weakness.
You're laid back and chill, but sometimes you care too much about what others think.
You prefer a variety of friends and tend to change friends quickly.
You have one big dream in your life, and you never lose sight of it.


I don't know about all of this. I don't really like to switch friends quickly. Normally I can't let go!
Anyways I should really focus on a snack so that I can watch the Cards game and get ready for soccer!
I hope that everyone has a great Sunday and enjoys what's left of their weekend.

Quote of the Entry:
"Two bare feet on the dashboard
Young love in an old Ford
Cheap shades and a tattoo and a Yoohoo bottle rollin' on the floorboard
Perfect song on the radio, sing along cause it's one we know
It's a smile, it's a kiss, it's a sip of wine
It's summertime, sweet summertime"

~ Kenny Chesney - "Summertime"

Whoa, I was just reading your blog and that exact song was playing on the radio - weird!
I'm so glad things are good and the weather is nice! And so you know, it's really hard not to make a comment about a certain someone :D
