Simply Thai Friday

Pad Thai, Thai iced coffee and seeing Max on date night = a real good time

.... however, i think Doug and I have broken up with Chocolate Bar again.... i don't want to talk about it..... then again this is a blog:

Here's the strike list for what used to be my favorite and most visited restaurant:

- Bad treatment every time we say "no alcohol for us"- STRIKE

- Two words: Homecoming 2009.... - STRIKE!

- Last night's plate of Macadamia Pecan something or other for 

10 outrageous dollars when all it was was a glorified,
warmed up Payday on a plate with a scoop of
ice cream on the side.... - STRIKE!!!

I can get my international selection of good cheeses from somewhere else chocolate bar! We are SO OVER!

No Snow Day Snow Day....

This morning at 7:45 - I woke up to this...

and this...

But to no avail as i checked our school's hotline to 

discover there would be no snow day for me :(

This is my outraged face.... 

note the massive pile of books on my window sill..... 

 further note: Lucia wears jewelry with her pj's now ;)

When Doug wakes up in 5 hours we'll see what he thinks about this atrocity....

Dance PrOOOOD

Doug and I got fa-REE comp tickets to see our college's dance production last night. To say the least it was TIIIIIIIGHT!!!! 

My fave: "El Tango de Roxanne" from Moulin Rouge [they actually did it! brrr, I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about it] choreographed by Catherine Speer and Ali Vice - now two of the coolest chicks in my eyes. There was tangoing, pushing, shoving, CHAIRS, and corsets, nuff said. Oh yeah - they titled it Salvation, brrrrrr! :)

Doug's fave: "The stompy stomp one"- but *actually* called.... Passion choreographed by Godfred Fianu [SO crazy talented!] with help from Stella Dike

Our Fave: "The cowboy one" called L'idolo Di Oro choreographed by Piper Hillman - contrary to the title it is NOT Italian, just "a commentary on the final stand-off scene in Sergio Leone's [italian] The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly". VERY splendiferous [actual word, look it up and/or win at scrabble with it], VERY b.a. [i've decided this will be a "PG" blog], and VERY cool that the music was actually created by a student here at Prin, Erik Seigling! I know him!

Best friend/Howard neighbor/future bridesmaid/fellow spring breaker!/unfortunate Packers fan ;) Carolyn Thorsen was in FOUR dances! - beast

Also Doug and moi laughed really hard pretty much the whole way through - not in a disrespectful, make fun of everything way, but a jokey-jokesters we're having such a fun time at this fun thing right now don't laugh, oh no we're laughing! way...

Oodles of fun :) if only we had 14 bucks to go do it again!

Vassup!!!

We've been engaged since the 3rd or 4th of December. I hope I can do this whole blogging thing well. We'd just like for our family and friends to check in on us every once and a while and see what we're doing! We're gonnu do this during our engaged time, marriage day, and life after that!

Beginning this blog in the throws of hard-knock-college-life seems dangerous, but i think we can do it! [maybe this will force us to get better at taking pictures of ourselves.....so they don't all look like this....

Wish us luck!

ps: I'm really stoked to marry this kid!
