No Swine (or Whine) for Me!

I just got the H1N1 vaccine for myself from my friend's Dad, so I don't have to worry about that bullet anymore. The good news is that Kara is coming in to town tonight for the second weekend in a row, which might be a first. But it also might not be, if you didn't know, I don't have the best memory.

Kara and I will be going on a double date Saturday with my roommate, Bill, and his girlfriend, Kayla, which Bill and I are both really excited about (it's going to be awesome!!). Kara will also get to meet Bill's dog, Deuce, who has become an awesome dog now that his training is finished.

So it's going to be a good weekend and I'm excited to see how it turns out...as well as to see Kara!

Long Time No Talk

Wow, I have not blogged for a month! I cannot believe it.

It seems like just yesterday the summer was starting and all the sudden I look up and the leaves are falling! That may be because we went straight from summer to winter in Indy, but I'm going to put most of the blame on my monotonous life!

I feel like the seasons have flown by without my noticing because nothing has really changed. I'm weirdly fine with it because I know that lots of things will change in the next six months or so.

I miss Jeff, but I am excited to see where the new seasons will take us - maybe a new job in Indy (for both of us? haha), a new place for me with roommates (something I've always looked forward to), and really becoming grown ups.

Until then, everything is good as far as the long-distance relationship thing goes. We're maintaing and trying to make the most of our time together (about 4 days a month). It's not much, but it's better than nothing and will only make us appreciate the time we do have together!

Euchre, It's on Tap

I just finished spending a solid Saturday in Indy with Kara and her family. We started the day by sleeping in haha. We made breakfast, went to see "The Invention of Lying" (which wasn't bad by the way), and then got some sushi and visited her cousins.

Then we headed back to Kara's house where her Mom had some good chili and grilled cheese waiting for us! Side note: chili is great anytime, but it's even better during the fall when the leaves start changing colors and the weather starts getting a bit colder! Anyway, after dinner, Mr. and Mrs. Murphy taught Kara and I how to play Euchre. It was a good time, despite the fact that Kara and her Dad beat Mrs. Murphy and myself (thanks to quite a few mistakes by me!).

I know that seems like an old persons Saturday night, staying in and playing cards, but I enjoy stuff like that. It's fun, but also relaxing and a nice way to wind down after a busy week.
