The long awaited post :)

Yeah yeah yeah, i am horrible at updating this thing! So what have I been up to? Lately, just car shopping, apartment shopping, and gear shopping! Even though I can't afford to buy a car yet, my lease isn't up until august, and my ankle is still broken and healing EXTREMELY slowly.

So, first things first: over the next few years, I think I will first be saving for a new car. My car, a geo metro, has been a stud--surviving being keyed in high school, having the antennae ripped off, being tipped over onto its poor little side, driving all the way to washington, and being in an accident here. I have had the Hulk for almost 6 (?) years, surprising, since no one thought it would last that long. So, i have spent some time trying to find something basically akin to a brand new metro, because really, the Hulk is fantastic. Well, I think i FINALLY found the car that I want, and she is ADORABLE I saw it in real-life for the first time today, she's a cutie. Affordable I think, I have about half the cost sitting in the bank right now :) yay!

Next, my new apartment! I'll be moving in with my friend Allen HERE. Super close to everything fun and exciting in this area! Awesome.

Next...I bought a swim cap (swimming is hard. but fun, and hard). I was told i wasn't allowed to use my legs, so, there it is--no legs for me. Soon, though, i hope. I start physical therapy tomorrow for this stupid ankle.

I also bought a pair of hiking pants. Prana makes these zip off pants that are a little pricey, but, the money was in the budget since I haven't been out climbing in a few weeks at the gym. THey are extremely comfortable yet durable enough for hiking and climbing in. Pretty stoked. *coughanklehealcough*

SO, i think that is it. We went and saw "21" this weekend--pretty good flick. its about math smart kids and gambling :)

well, that's all for me, ttyl!

The weather is turning nice and its time to rawk!

***NEWS ALERT***

BEFORE THIS POST BEGINS I MUST OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCE:
I WILL BE IN COLORADO MAY 16TH THROUGH 21ST. I WOULD LOVE TO EVERYONE, PLEASE CALL ME!!!!

So, this weekend officially kicks off the spring/summer festivities!!!

Sunday we are going up to leavenworth to do some climbing (i, of course, will be taking pictures, and only doing top rope climbs).

Tonight though, i think we are going to get Meredith's *NEW CAR* and head to golden gardens state park and have a picnic on the beach and just hang out. Since she and Chris A. stopped dating boyfriend and I have had to juggle our friendships with them a little bit. It sorta stinks, but, i think we will all be friends again once Meredith is back at the climbing gym, which, won't be anytime soon because of her knee.

Everyone has been so busy lately that we have barely hung out at all, so this weekend is really exciting! 40 hour workweeks make me tired. It sounds silly but, all i want to do when i get off work is go to sleep. Lame sauce! but, it is staying light almost past 7 now, so that is inspiring for doing more than zonking out. also inspiring will be when I can actually run and ride again. blah.
