My New Favorites

So I've taken eight months off. So what. Now I'm back because I want to talk about some things that I think are awesome.

1) American Idol: I'd never seen the show before this season, but Carrie got me into it. Now I love it - Tuesdays and Wednesday at 7 pm CST is a magical time these days. I think a big part of it is the resemblance to group therapy - honest feedback, vulnerability, etc.

2) Einstein Bros. Bagels: I got addicted to the Good Grains bagel with Honey Almond cream cheese over the past month or so. Add some Vanilla Hazelnut coffee and you're set for a good day. I recently procured a french press so that I could make it myself in the office instead of having to stop every morning.

3) Subway's Tuna sandwiches: Nine-grain wheat, provolone cheese, spinach, tomatoes, onions, and some jalapenos. I ate this three times last week.

4) Half-marathon training: I started training again this week for the Ft. Collins Marathon's half and remembered again how much I love listening to music and breathing fresh air. We've been working out in the gym all winter, and getting outside has been fantastic.

5) Rock Band (2): We got Rock Band back in December and have since rocked ourselves silly on numerous occasions. It's great as a social lubricator. Favorite songs - Carrie: Hungry Like the Wolf; Me: Ramblin' Man.

That's it for now. Hopefully back again soon with more!
