I have just finished manufacturing what I hope will be the best quiche of my life. It contains many ingredients and is currently undergoing heat transformation in the oven. Last summer while I was living on my own I made great strides toward perfecting the art of producing this substance, not in terms of ingredients but in terms of bettering the process, including taking steps to make the cheese melt instead of burn as well as bury more content within the quiche itself. Consequently it takes a lot longer to build, but the results are worth it.

In other news, my two year old nephew can successfully name every train from Thomas the Tank Engine, of which there are over sixty. Today I taught him the difference between the Lamborghini and Ferrari matchbox cars. Tomorrow I will add the Thunderbird to the mix. Everybody left today for lunch and I found myself on duty monitoring the munchkin. He thanked me for this by stabbing me in the face with his metal airplane. It really sort of hurt.

I still miss all of you O-town folks, some of you more than others (Haha! No, I’m kidding, I miss you all the same. But really though, some more than others). I also miss the O-tude, the O-style, the way of life I had out there with all of you beautiful people. Alright, that food is done, the people are here, and we are going to eat. Which is generally what one does after one makes food.

Do you see what they have done to you Eric? You like Nebraska! noooooo…
Anyways, funny story…my phone got lost and run over in the Target parking lot a couple of weeks ago when I went to spend the weekend in the Springs with family, so currently I have no phone, and I don’t have your number either. Though after some stalking on facebook, I did discover that you have a phone number on there, which I hope is your cell phone. Thus, I will give you a call sometime next week so that we can do something…so if that is not a number I can reach you at, you should really tell me as soon as possible!

so I came here to goad you into posting, meeting a long distance need of mine for interaction, when what to my sleepy eyes should appear, but two new entries and eight tiny reindeer. That last part was just so it would rhyme, haHA poetic liscense!
I’m very jealous of your nephew, as I’ve only learned 35 to date.
I am endeavoring to maintain the O-style, but you left me with a great burden, so many people, so little time.
Do me a favor, while you are hanging with your siblings, pick up as many fun new quirks as possible, I’m running low. Also, learn more about beer, CO seems a fount of knowledge on the subject.
i got nothing else, have, have nothing else, so toodles!

Dwight is right. Colorado does = Beer.

I think I’ll take you to the Bristol Brewery…if you have time. Hell, Sarah should come too.

while having the beloved pie night with a couple of my friends, i picked up a “fun new quirk” that you [and dwight] may be interested in . so, here’s how it goes: someone says something like, “i could really go for some ice cream” or “i have a test tomorrow in calculus” or whatever kids are saying these days, and your response is, “that’s something i couldn’t tell from lookin’ atcha.” it works both ways, too. you could say something about yourself, and if someone replies, “really?”, you say, “yep, that’s something you couldn’t tell by lookin’ at me.” it’s great, i think. . . i think it’s great. THE END

Ok, seriously, the pink lasted a long time! This, of course, comes as no surprise because, ya know, it’s me…and I do pink a lot! :o) But I put up a new picture and the pink just clashed with it, so I had to remedy that by coordinating my shirt with the background. I’m just weird like that I guess! I hope all is going well for ya…missin ya lots too and lots too! Can’t wait to catch up with a few majors nights when you get back to the infamous O-Town!
