Either way the election turned out tonight, it would have been a historical moment. What a day. Today was the first time I walked to the polls to cast a ballot in person. I’ve always been spoiled by the mail-in voting system in Oregon. But it was surprisingly easy and fast. It was a rare [...]

I can’t say that this job doesn’t take me on some interesting adventures. A couple of weeks ago my job duties took me to Phoenix to attend an Arizona Cardinals football game. They were playing the Dallas Cowboys on this day, and I was told that I couldn’t have asked for a better game for [...]

I just arrived at the resort at which we are staying in Turks and Caicos… and my dear… my boyfriend is going to FREAK OUT when he hears how nice this place is. On second thought, I better keep the details to myself. This suite that my mom and I are staying in is seriously [...]

I went to a Cubs game tonight. The Cubbies were victorious once again, beating out the Atlanta Braves again. I didn’t get pictures from tonight, but below is a clip from last night’s game (yes I was there too) during the 7th inning stretch. Everyone was singing–it was pretty awesome.
Sorry for the poor [...]

It’s been a few months in the working, but things are finally moving along. (FINALLY!!)
I’m moving to Chicago!
Thought I would share a picture taken from the rooftop of the house I am going to be living in. Visit anytime!
