A picture of you and the person you have been closest with the longest











This one was hard for me. On the left is a lovely photo of Lindsay and I, and on the right is B and Abe. Lindsay and I have been friends for sixish years, while B and Abe have been my friends since the fifth and sixth grades. I couldn't find a picture of Tracy and I, otherwise she would be in here too.

a look back

2010 was, for the most part, a great year. It started out very rocky, but progressed into something fantastic.

The end of March I was promoted(finally!) to the General Manager. It has been a long, challenging, and rewarding nine months. I had to straighten a lot of things out, teach my employees a lot, and learn to let go of some things. I have grown a lot this past year as an employee and manager, and I still have a lot to learn.

Also in March, Mike and I FINALLY moved into our own apartment. Thank god. It has been great. We got lucky and have great friends for neighbors. We BBQ and drink when it's nice out and we love it! The unfortunate part is we have a set of impossible neighbors. One has a tiny dog that poops in our part of the yard and she never cleans up after it, the other set thinks we are horrible people because we drink and a few people smoke. But we really do like it for the most part.

Mike and I were able to go to Casper and see his family in September. It was a great week and we enjoyed all of it. I met a lot of really nice people, and it is something we will have to do again. In October I had to go to New Jersey for training. I was not looking forward to it; I was dreading it. It turned out great. I met a few really great people as well as having the opportunity to make some great contacts in our corporate office.

2011 is going to be just as great, if not better!

birthday

My 25th birthday was on Wednesday. I wanted to do something completely monumental and unforgettable, instead I did this:

  • Went to work at 7am
  • Went grocery shopping for the hotel
  • Liquor store with Kendra
  • Heard gun shots at a stop light in Chubbuck, and thought we were going to die
  • Wandered around the 'mall'
  • Got two 'happy birthday' avacados from Randall
  • Went to dinner with Mike, Randall, and Kendra
  • Found that my credit card is missing and I don't know where it is.
  • Tried to forget that my credit card was missing.
  • Went home, invited people over to share a rather large bottle of liqour.
  • Played speed quarters.
  • Fell on my ass in the snow, now suffering from neck pain
  • Slept like a baby.

Maybe not exactly what I had in mind, but still turned out to be a riot of a good time.

Month

I haven't posted anything in a very, very long time. In this past month I have:

-Delt with a HUGE flood at the 8. I have had 30 rooms out of order since the weekend after Thanksgiving. Thank goodness I called a good restoration company, and the work to repair and replace things is moving along quite well. This week we should have all rooms, minus two that need new furniture, up and ready to be rented.

-Went to my family Chirstmas party. We always have such a great time. My cousin Norm hates board games. He claims his sister and I cheated one summer when we had a Clue marathon. He never won a game once, and hasn't touched the game since. We convinced him to paly Scene It this year, and he was shoving it down our throats that he was going to win. He lost.

-Went to the gym, a lot. I feel I am not loosing anything, but the feeling after a nice workout is like a drug. I am going to go even more after the first of the year.

-Found out that wonton wrappers can hold an infite amount of delightful fillings.

-Been very impatient for Christmas this next weekend. Mike is coming with me and we are spending the entire weekend with my parents. I can't wait. I love going home. The Mexican food we eat on Chirstmas Eve is going to be amazing as always. What was I saying about the gym again?
