cube mates

I have some pretty awesome cube mates 
- "pretty" 
= I have some AWESOME cube mates.


Luckily none of them are like this.  =)


But really...
I think some changes are coming to my treasured cube. 
I am thankful for my cube mates.


They make truly awful days bearable.
They make me laugh at least once everyday.
They go along with my crazy ideas or find a calm way to talk me out of them.
We help each other, without expecting anything in return.
They make me feel anything's possible.
They help me come up with silly things to make the day more interesting.
They are good sports when we play little pranks on each other.  They're willing to laugh it off with me.
They brainstorm with me beyond expectations.


And they listen to all my stories, which can sometimes be quite long with lots of tangents (and they actually look interested).  So they are either some pretty awesome actors or they're just THAT awesome!  And they even allow me to interrupt their work to tell them my silly stories that randomly pop in my head.  Don't worry.  I try to control the number of times I interrupt them a day, but even with that control, it's still a lot.


Oh, and they take the dome out with me, which alone is enough of a reason to like them.  (And they don't insult my driving.)



yeah, these are the only pictures I have of them together.  (decorating for christmas)
We got Magnolia's cupcakes for taking a survey 
we were in the recap of the holiday party.

Fall Fun!

We could not have asked for better fall weather this weekend.  70 degrees.  Sunny.  We just wanted to be outside the entire time.   We went for runs and decided we needed to spend even more time appreciating the fall foliage, which apparently will peak in two weeks.  So two more weeks to enjoy!  We checked out a new to us restaurant.   Then we took a trip to Grant's Farm, which neither one of us had been to since we were kids.  And neither one of us remembered.  Capping off another day spent outside. Monday I hopped on my bike to get to work and my body felt tired from the fun of the weekend.  I looked out my window at my desk and saw so many beautiful leaves, I took a photo on the walk back to where I park my bike. P.S. Yes, I got a new job!  Hooray!  A more detailed update is coming.

26 miles in 26 days

So the title isn`t exactly correct, but I ran a marathon yesterday and it was Melissa & my`s one month being here. But Caro helped me come up with the title and I thought it was catchy. So marathon #2 and a completely different experience than the one I ran last year in Chicago. Lisa Rottler Chamberlin is the name I ran the race with...I tried to sign up as Lisa Rottler, but it forced me to enter mom`s maiden name or i couldn`t continue with registration. the first difference I experienced this marathon in a very different way. In Chicago I was competitive I would say. It was on my mind since February of last year when I signed up. I was didigent about training and very serious about it. This year I signed up like 3 weeks ago and it was very last minute. Although, I ran like I was training for the marathon this summer in Chicago-that was 2 months ago. Last year the weekend of the marathon I rested. This year Friday night I went to my first quinceanera and got home at 4 a...

Fall Photos

After admiring the leaves on our runs and my bike to work, we recruited my parents to take some photos of us there this weekend.   After these photos (and tackling some IT issues for my parents) we went to a birthday gathering at the jazz festival on Cherokee Street.  I liked it more than I thought I would. As the night wore on, I started chatting with one of the friend of a friend's there.  I started going in to what a crazy year and some change it's been and, whew, it really started to overwhelm me.   This morning, Mike woke up overwhelmed by our world/specifically our country.  I woke up with that conversation still in my head and also felt overwhelmed.  We treated ourselves to Sump Coffee and had a chat.  It's not always we sit down and talk about what we want and steps to get there. Fall feels like the perfect time to reset.  As we went through the day I also thought, it's okay to miss things in the past, but it woul...
