Catch up Time!

So I promised that I would be better at keeping this blog updated so even though nothing real exciting has happened, I'm just writing to say hello! This past weekend was fun. The apartment complex that I live in had a Halloween party. They have it every year. Actually the first one I went to was the first time I made out with Chris. Scandalous! So anyway, Chris and I are both being golfers for Halloween. I don't really like the idea, but I can't believe that he wants to dress in some what matching outfits so I'm not saying anything to him. Anyway, the party was okay. I don't really know anyone at these functions and Chris has to work for them so I'm usually by myself. I brought my friend Amanda with me who was dressed as a Banana. I'll have to post a picture when I get home because she was pretty funny.

Saturday night we went to a friend's house and pregamed with a little Rock Band 2. They have We Got the Beat on there which the girls all loved playing. It was really nice to get out and not just be with the boys. I should explain, normally its me and all of Chris' friends. Recently, we have all been spreading our wings and meeting new people. So there were other girls out with us on Saturday night which was pretty cool. I'm getting a little tired of all the guy talk. So anyhow, we went all went out to this bar we like called the Elbow Room. I crushed everyone at Big Buck Hunter (total redneck game that we would have loved to play at Glory Days). Not so much at Silver Strike. But got to meet some really cool people and I'm feeling more at home here.

Job is going really well. My company just took over a company in Cincinnati. Then a company went bankrupt in Texas and we scooped up a couple of their sales reps and are adding new accounts from there. I'm pretty excited about that because I know a lot of people have been losing their jobs and so I worry with the economy.

Well, speaking of job security, I better sign off here and get back to work!!!

Colts Game!!

Well, I couldn't have had a more perfect game to choose to go to. I have to admit that after the way the Colts season has started, I was a little worried about going to the Ravens game. They looked tough against the Titans and we looked like crap against the Texans. But alas the tickets had been paid for so it was done. Our seats were on the 15 yard line on the Colts side 17 rows from the field. I NEVER want to sit anywhere else. They were awesome! Here was our view:





Anyway, I got these tickets through one of the colts players, #61 Jamey Richard. His fiance and I have become acquainted and I'm trying to weasle my way into the family. Jamey's dad Charlie sat with us for the game. Very funny guy, reminded me a lot of my dad. So I was talking to him and turns out he went to the same high school was my mom, except 8 years before her and he knew of my grandfather's Oldsmobile dealership in Garden City. It was pretty exciting...for me.




So, what I didn't realize was that when you don't have a dome anymore, the sun can be on you. All week I prayed that the roof would be open for the game and not once did I think to wear sunblock. We were in direct sun almost the entire game so not only was it hot but I got burned a little bit. I gotta get used to this no roof thing!







Of course, this picture was when the sun was behind one of the tracting bars. Anyway, so the game was awesome. We crushed the Ravens. Theresa invited us back for another game so I guses we behaved. Next weekened, the Colts play the Packers and I'm sure that will be an interesting game for Chris and I. :-) Here is a picture of the Colts offensive line with Peyton looking like he is an outcast. LOL!

Just seeing if it worked! I'm a genius!

Long time no talk

Okay, okay, I know that its been a couple months, but I'm very busy! School has been crazy busy. I've got one class finishing up this month so hopefully things will become a little less stressful. Things are going well though. Chris and I just got back from our first camping trip in Elizabethtown, KY with Dana and Howard. We had a lot of fun, but probably would have slept better if we had an air mattress. I was thanking God for the blessings he gave me on my chest because they made it a little more comfortable to sleep. Ha ha! We had little issue when we got home. We found out we couldn't get the Colts game on TV because the CBS network here is fighting with our cable company. So we had to rush to a bar so we could watch the Colts beat the Texans. All in all, the weekend was a success.

This weekend, Chris and I are celebrating our 2 year anniversary. I can hardly believe that I kept a guy around this long! He must be a keeper! For our anniversary, we are going to the Ravens/Colts game and we are sitting in style. A friend of mine happens to be engaged to one of the Colts players and she very nicely got us 2 tickets. We don't find out exactly where they are til Sunday, but I don't really care where they are, as long as I'm there. I'll definitely try to figure out how to post pictures on here after the game.

Alright, well, I guess its back to the grind for me. I'm working a huge project right now at work which feels really good. As if I didn't have a bad enough fear of getting fired and then the economy goes to hell so now I'm even more worried. Go stockmarket!!
