MudQuest!

What up blog readers!

I have exciting news. I'm signed up for the Mud Quest Adventure Run coming up this October in West, Texas. It's a 6.5 mile run where somehow they fit in 30 obstacles throughout the course, such as...well... I'm not quite sure. From what I can tell, they mostly involve getting muddy in different ways. And some involve trying to slide under barbed wire. And running through creeks or something.  If you are curious what this is, check out the video on the website:


And... I'm running it alone.

Haha, just kidding, that would be really strange. Actually, I'm running it with Julie and about 5 other friends from down here. And it's definitely not too late to sign up so if you have any interest... we are always open to adding more to our group.

Also, I registered for the Match this week. It's official - I'm applying to internships this year!

Hola :)

So here's the deal. I got busy, didn't really have anything exciting to say, didn't blog for a while, then it got awkward so I didn't blog for a little longer, then it just got really awkward and I couldn't think of anything important enough to restart with. Also most of you are on Facebook so you kind of knew what was going on. But I'm back. I missed blogging and I didn't want this page to die off.

So, here we are. I never did find that all-important post to start back up again with, but...oh well.

Dan's still in Kansas City. (Dad- until December since I know you have already forgotten again!) It kind of sucks. His internship is going great - they told him they saw a lot of "leadership potential" in him and they've been giving him all sorts of responsibilities which he's handling like a champ. We miss each other though. Long-distance marriage kind of stinks. We've sort of been spending our paychecks like whoa though and seeing each other every 2-3 weeks. I don't think we'll be able to keep that up throughout the fall but it's nice when we can do it.

Umm, my life has changed quite a bit. I've become the most social I've ever been in my life. I don't know what happened. I've had lots of cooking dates, movie dates, and running dates so far and it's been great. My school and work are in a lot of ways the last thing on my mind because I have so many fun things planned. (Although I think that's going to change now that fall semester is starting...) I told Dan that when he comes back we're probably going to have to keep this up to some extent at least and he's excited. I really have no idea how I turned into the biggest extrovert ever but it's fun!

I start class this week: Group Psychotherapy, and Memory and Cognition. Both are classes I'm excited about and I think this semester will be so much less stressful than the spring semester was.

Well...not sure if you guys are still out there, but if you are, "Hi!" and I'm not trying to hide!
