Tomato Basil Pasta

I made tomato basil pasta tonight for dinner. It was very tasty. I've been watching HGtv shows too much (like House Hunters, Property Virgins, etc.). Now I am obsessed with kitchens and masters bathrooms. And home gyms.

Defense date

I sent my completed thesis out to my committee members tonight and I also set an official date to defend! Ahhhhhhhhh - so exciting!

Today

Today was a pretty good day. I worked in the office for a few hours and then went running with my coworker, Catherine, on the track. We ran into Beka while we were running, so we all ran four miles together. It was great! Then I came home and made a casserole from Shereen's casserole cookbook. Since then I've been at my desk (as you can see) working on a training project. It's midnight though so I'm done with work now! Patrick should be home soon.

Happy Hector

Hector has got to be the most lovey cat ever created. He is always purring and happy. I honestly never see him acting bitchy or angry or anything. He is trying to date Fluffy, but she's hot and cold with him. I think it must frustrate him, but you would never know. This is a picture of Hector getting his love on with Patrick's ear.

Even Shorter

So I got a hair cut today. Look how adventurous I am now!

Superbowl 09: Black Sunday

Yesterday we had our annual Superbowl Party at Dan's house (my professor). We usually play a game of broom ball on frozen Lake Washington and ride around on snow mobiles. Yesterday was called Black Sunday though. Here is why.
1. This is Josh after he drove around the lake on a snow mobile.2. This is Josh after he hit the gas instead of the brake. This is Dan's Suburban after Josh hit the gas instead of the brake.
3. This is Ann being confused after Dan's Suburban got stuck in a ditch after trying to rescue Scott's SUV from a ditch. Both vehicles were towed by a neighbor. (This is after Darin was pulled out of a ditch).Not to mention, Marquita fell on her face during broom ball and went to the ER with a concussion.
These are the reasons yesterday was called Black Sunday.

Happy Birthday Tammy!

Last night we all went to Tammy's (my coworker) 30th birthday party. We ate, we drank, we danced, we raced goldfish, and we scared a chicken into shitting. All of the ingredients of a good party! Now onward to the Superbowl Party.
