Friday it's Friday!

This week brought the first day of fall. I really don't mind fall, but thoughts of the next season scare me...a lot.

Summer I will miss you.

I worked on an endless project this week. It was so time consuming and somehow I needed to manage it on top of my current responsibilities. Needless to say this week was not my favorite. (Last week was the same deal.) Although, this week the co-worker I covered for while she was on vacation last week was back on Tuesday. So there's that!

Here's to Friday and the weekend.

Anyone celebrating Oktoberfest?

This song reminds me of a Friday in early spring when it was still freezing. I went to lunch with some of my co-workers for ramen and this song played. And it was so much fun.

I have a few things to update on today =) Oh I just finished the best meal I've had since I arrived and it was oh sooooo good! I'm so full and happy right now! It was a mexican meal so at least i know i'm going to the right country. yesterday Tere asked me to lead a little yoga class. automatically i said yes because that's how i am, but on the walk from the classroom to outside i started to get nervous. the only person i ever lead in yoga was karen & she laughed the majority of the time (it doesn't really count). i just took deep breaths and i did it. it actually was great. once we started i was able to integrate some favorite posses of the people in the class it was great towards the end when marcelle (who is rather soft spoken, but i love her) lead a few poses as well. i was actually happy with myself. namaste i love our group. everyone is similar that we all have this interest to do missionary work, but we are all very unique and different at the s

Birthday

i was yawning? Here I am: 28! Top 5 of 27: LouFest Marathon Florida (how can a vacation not make it?) New Job trip to Savannah to meet Callie ! My parents came to Chicago last weekend to help me celebrate & celebrate we did! It was a super fun weekend! And it was 40 degrees! Friday I was on the phone with a member from Kansas City. He started chatting with me about the weather and I said, "we are currently experiencing a heat wave in Chicago of 34 degrees." He responded, "it's supposed to be 60 here this weekend, we're going to pull out our bbq grills." I laughed, but thought, 'why are my parents coming here?!? why am I not going where it's warm?!?' SIXTY DEGREES! We won't see that til...april? may? obsessed i made a baby snowman, no one wanted to help so i went with a tiny one... ;) What I would give for the day off today! I want a nap ;)

Skyline Views

I finished reading My Heart is an Idiot a couple weeks ago. The author lived in Chicago for a bit and had several essays in the book where he mentioned Chicago. In one essay he mentioned the skyline view from Augusta & Wood. I was curious so I decided to go for a bike ride and check out this "amazing" view of the skyline. This was it, people. Hmmm.... I think I had a better view on the Damen bridge just north of Fullerton on my way there. I am a sucker for the unexpected skyline views around the city (like on Damen). I'll also throw in the view from Chicago and Halsted. Also the orange line between Western and 35th/Archer is pretty amazing. Do you have any places you love to take in the unexpected view? I'm not talking the Adler... I consider that expected.
