Hello again my faithful readers! I hope this blog finds all of you well and in good spirits. You deserve that...at the very least.

I am sitting at my new favorite coffee shop, Taraccino again. I had a nice iced vanilla latte this time around and the same good looking young man...RYAN...made it for me. He decided to ask me a whole bunch of questions today. learned my name and where i live and introduced himself..asking me my name. I still haven't gotten the courage to ask him for an application to work here, he's cute you know! BUT...i do know, now, that he has one year left of college, and is, therefore, a youngin. SO...there's that. Now i can't hook my roommates up with him. he's a youngster. hah. aaaanyway...no heart in my coffee tooday. DRAT!

i've had an awesome weekend so far. Firday night i went to the Horse races in Shokapee at Caterbury Park. My roommates and some mutual friends of ours all went together and had a great time. I did NOT bet on any horses, but perhaps the next time i go, i will. It was really fun to go do something different like that. I'd never been to a horse race before, and it was fun to go with friends and watch the majestic horses just run run run. cool.

Yesterday, i went to the batting cages with a friend of mine. He helped me better my swing by giving me pointers. Bat weight, where to hold the bad, how to keep my hands together when i swing...all that good stuff. we swung the bat a bit then went to get some food and a few drinks. After that, i got ready at his house and went to a wedding reception for some good freinds, Colin and Andrea Strandberg, who got married a few weekends ago. It was a BEAUTIFUL setup last night between Colin's parents' house and their neighbors. Beautiful landscaping and the weather was perfect. I saw Brice and Jenny, Jamey and Kate, and some good friends i haven't seen in a while. It was awesome. I had a great time.

Now today, here i sit in the coffee shop doing work that i didn't do friday...and waiting for Heidi, to call me. Heidi is in town from Texas and is at the twins game. I wanted to go with her, but i really had to get this work done. and if i didn't do it today, during the afternoon, who knows when and if i would have gotten it done. SO, there's that. I'll be heading to a twins game soon enough. I MAY meet up with JD later, but it depends on if he calls or not. I hope he does! :D Otherwise it's laundry and cleaning day. oh boy! lucky me.

well that's about it from me. hope you all enjoyed your weekend. hope to see you soon! xoxox
