I love it when you stumble across a great weekend, especially when you weren't planning for anything in particular. Brian woke me with a kiss on Saturday and whispered, "If we're going hiking, we should leave soon." I jumped out of bed and got ready while Brian cooked some eggs and then we headed west to hike up to Crater Lake. Here's what I look for in an optimal hike: your path should lead you up and the word 'alpine' should be involved. We indeed went up and were pleasantly greeted with great alpine meadows and lakes. This picture reminds me of the bigfoot sighting pictures. After our hike, we had dinner with my parents who stopped by to pick up their dog, Eefee, after their road trip to Pennsylvania. After they left, Brian suggested we go get some flowers for the flower beds in our front window. We were smarter this time and paid attention to the fact that our big tree blocks most sunlight and got plants that don't need full su
February 11, 2011: Please turn your attention to the 970- missed calls. Here's a little story that may make you dislike me (especially if you make phone calls for your job). Once upon a time (ahem, tonight), my phone rang with a mysterious number on the screen. Knowing that it would drive me crazy wondering who it was if I didn't answer, I answered it. Congratulations! You've won a 2-night stay in Breckenridge for $99, you pick the date. I was kind of excited, I remember entering the drawing a while back. I told him some of my info so he could send me more information and we chatted about the snow and how much Breckenridge got this last week. We were getting along really well and then he said, "What type of credit card will you be using?" I got quiet, began to panic, and stammered, "Oh, hold on. Let me look." I ran to Brian and whispered what was going on and he said, "Do. Not. Give. It. To. Him". I didn't know what to do so I just handed the phone to Brian and Click. Brian hung up on him. He called back twice (and, as you can see, the number changed the second time- I know that trick from working in Admissions at DeVry). I feel pretty bad and probably didn't make a friend tonight but, it happened. I'm moving on after this post.
