Don't Look Back Like Dylan in the Movies

So, I had an amazing going away party at Blue and Gold. There was strong representation from many friends old and new and many, many PBRs were consumed. Thanks to everyone who made it by. I'll miss you! Let me know when you are coming to Charlottesville!

At the going away I was presented with a pretty Fing awesome cake. Yep, that's me. And me again wearing a taco costume at Fools (which has been tucked into a spirit award in the form of tie-died tighty-whities) and me again in Copenhagen in 2006 with Ambush. I've had some really amazing times with my ultimate ladies in NYC and I will miss them so much.

Here's me and the amazing cake:
And me and Erica and Tucker (and some of Ali):

Thanks Guys. I had a blast!

That was Thursday.

Friday, I packed all day, (with a hangover, thank you shot buyers) and Dave took the train in around midnight. Saturday, we rented a U-Haul and drove to Charlottesville. The drive went pretty well. (Thanks to Dave for doing all the driving.) Sunday, we had movers help us with all Dave's stuff from his other apartment and also unload the Uhaul. Worth every penny! Then there was much unpacking and picture hanging. I like the place a lot. Here's two views of the living room from opposite angles:

We get a lot of light and there is a nice spacious kitchen. We have a spare bedroom so be sure to let me know when you are coming to town.

So far, I have been traveling for work to Knoxville, Reston and New York. When I'm home I've been getting settled in. Since most of the boxes are gone, I've really been enjoying Charlottesville. I've been running. I took the bus to give blood. I ran a track workout (8 200s) and today I crashed the winter league and played a game. It was a nice bike ride to and from. I've been cooking a little more (I made some pretty good chili.) So far, so good. I'll keep you posted.

LOVE the pics from the NYC party. So sad I missed it! Charlottesville sounds great; similar to my life in Seattle actually... biking, blood-giving, ultimate, exploring, happiness. Miss you CMFK!
