Long See No Time

Yeah, so there's been a bit of a hiatus. My bad.

A lot has happened since the end of school. Yesterday, for instance, I realized that I'd overdrafted my checking account four or five consecutive times. I've never overdrafted before in my life! I guess I spent a bit too much in Colorado. And I was in Colorado for a wedding. Great time. I drove up with my girlfriend's parents who, by the way, are great. So are her brothers. Did I have a girlfriend last time I blogged? I think not. So, I have a girlfriend. I hate calling her, "a girlfriend." It's more like... nevermind. For the sake of avoiding too much mush, we'll stick with that. She does have a name, though: Alicia. Beautiful Alicia. Anyway, we've been dating for six weeks as of yesterday.

So we got there--awesome home. The backyard overlooks the mountains. It was awesome. It was in Glenwood Springs, which is about 2.5 hours west of Denver, just off of I-70. The bachelor party was fun, along with the white water rafting, and the wedding was gorgeous. It was in the Aspen Glen Golf Club and the "aisle" is perfectly aligned with Mount Sopris, the huge snow-capped mountain between the other two. Mountains and trees all over the place.

The reception was great. The food rocked, but the dancing was even better. We danced "The Chicken" and the DJ told everyone that I was the best chicken dancer. He was right, too, I mean, come on. I rocked. And then Alicia did a little bit of rocking on her own when she caught the bouquet. It was cool.

I was convinced that I was gonna get this string teaching job, but that turned out not to work out. Bummer. So I'm still waiting for something else to come up. Oh, well--I got the girl. She's wonderful.

Okay, enough blogging for me. I stink and I'm gonna take a shower.
