Bed Number 6 & 7

Well, to continue my new found love for sleeping in different beds, I was able to sleep in beds 6 & 7 of this trip. I wouldn't want to actually get a good nights sleep in a familar bed, now would I. Since Christmas, I had opportunity to hang out with some friends from high school. We're all around the country, so it's good to see them. Hopefully, we'll have a Colorado Ski Trip planned, though I hate skiing. OK, not really, hate, I just never do it. I also got to hang out with Sara and friends. We ate at Munchies- which was good as ever. Then, we played some of the midwestern only Euchre. I hadn't played since I was in the Midwest... Good times. Tuesday night found me in West Lafayette. Home of Purdue University, Harrys Chocolate (& Go Ugly Early shirts you see everywhere in the world) and my Aunt and Uncle. I got to see my Uncle and Cousin at my cross race in Indy (Gotta love a top 5 in an Elite race, especially in front of family). It was good t osee them, especially my Aunt, since it had been a year. West Lafayette is a fun town, and the family is certainly fun. I parted ways with a PS2 and Grand Theft Auto. I am not a fan of video games and Television, but GTA does something for me. Picking up prostitutes, parking in a secluding area, then beating them up and taking your money back. Does it get any better? I found myself in Indy last night to see Cory. He is buying a house in Broadripple, so the trip was somewhat business related. We went to eat at the Broadripple BrewPub. Not to many places serve vegan Sloopy Joes, but this is one of them. Then we went to a comedy club. Funny stuff... Then we went to the Vogue. I have never seen a club so packed on the Wednesday night. PACKED. Like sardines, except smoking and drinking and obnoxious. Today, Stephanie got her new car. She got a new Passat Wagon. I am jealous. I think I am going to forgo my plane ticket home and drive back with her. That way, she won't have to drive to CO alone... I am such a loving boyfriend... Indiana- Home of Fog, Mud, and Slush-.

5 Days and 5 Different Beds

Ahhh... Christmas... Gotta love spending it with the family. Gotta love the travel involved. Steve and I ended up giving our seats up from Chicago to Fort Wayne. A $250 travel voucher later, I got in before 11 am instead of 11 pm the night before. And free airfare to nationals in NH. Can't go wrong. It has been cold as hell in Indiana. ? I think it actually hit double digits today. It didn't feel like it, but I am certain it did. Last night, it was -10. Thats not Windchill. That's real like off the temp guage. Brrrr... Atleast I get to sleep in the same bed tonight. Lets see, Home, Chicago, Rents House, Grandparents House, and finally back to Rents House. Ah, a familiar bed. Ah, rubber sheets for the young niece on the bed. Cozy like Sunday Morning.

Brr... December... Wait...

How is was it 60 here today and 10 in Fort Wayne? I did just over an hour, easy easy easy. Battled a stiff headwind. Fast coming back though. I did a "lap" through Morrison and head back. Perfect December weather! Since cross season is over, I have been being really lazy. This is the third time I have ridden in the past couple weeks. I lifted once. Oh, how I love the offseason! I leave Wednesday for Fort Fun. Its supposed to snow here AND Fort. That'll make for fun travels, especially in O'Hare! I am looking forward to seeing the family and friends. Should be a great time! Ofcourse I'll overbook myself and be really busy the whole time, but it'll be worth it! I wonder if Steve's getting more tattoos...
