It's a Bachelor's Life for me...

I put miss Liz on a plane yesterday, as she had decided that all of this sunny, mild weather we have had lately is making her depressed. She needed some Northeastern cold, and she needed it stat.

Or, really, she has a conference to attend next week, and decided to head early to see some old friends and tear up Boston. Proper.

That said, i snuck off to Winter Park for a b-e-autiful day of sun and powder with our friends Becky and Jevon (also originally Liz's Boston friends, now Denver transplants.. hmmm..) and managed to enjoy myself, get some adrenaline pumping, and even manage to not hurt myself. Not a bad day, even if i had a lonely house awaiting me upon my return.

Earlier this week, i blossomed into my late twenties, and to celebrate, Liz made me home-made corn dogs (she hates them normally) and a fantastic carrot cake (another favorite of mine, not so much of hers). Take a look over at the Flickr page to catch all the pictorial evidence of all mentioned events, I'll be over here eating sugar cereal and watching Sportcenter reruns. (burp)

Doug, just came across this comment. In case you ever need to know this:

“… Besides, the Word is the principal part of baptism. If in an emergency there’s no water at hand, it doesn’t matter whether water or beer is used.” - Martin Luther

my favorite lutheran quote was from a letter he wrote to his wife, asking her to send beer.

This reminded me of you and friends:

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.
Nature's peace will flow into you
as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you,
and the storms their energy,
while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.

John Muir
