Is that my toothbrush?


Apparently not. Last night I was reading and my roommate was walking around brushing her teeth, with my toothbrush.

"dude you are using my toothbrush".

"uhm actually this is my toothbrush, I swear, yours is in the holder"

"nope that is Ben's, I have been using the pink one since I moved in 3 weeks ago, I have that same toothbrush, have you been using it too?"

"Yes I have and I am pretty sure it is mine but you can have it, I don't want it anymore"

Later my pink Colgate toothbrush was found in my travel bag in the toothbrush holder. In my defense it is the exact same brush. You don't have to tell me, I know I am an awesome roommate.

We checked out the new Chamber's hotel bar on Saturday (yeah the website kind of sucks). I am not going to do a bar review, just will say if my old buddy Sarah was not the front desk manager my feet would probably have never set foot there, but there was some good people/celebrity watching. If you don't mind paying $10 for a drink, check it out or read this. The picture in the article is from the outdoor bar which is very Sex in the City like. Well like I would know. I guess what I am getting at is I was there and other people were too, there was a fire and it was an alright time.

Kansas can be pretty

when the sun is setting. Another one of our sweet projects went online this past week, Way to Go Team! The Spearville Wind Farm will produce enough clean green electricity to power about 30,000 homes.

In other sweet news Nye's Polonaise Room aka Conference Room 'N' received Esquire's Best Bar in America Award. How, why ? I do not know but it is quite the honor to work 500 feet from such a national landmark. I am actually looking at Nye's as I type, what inspiration. I think I can even smell the peirogies and stale beer.


Oh and for those of you wondering, we finally set a date, January 13 is the big day. Yes we gots lots to do............

Goodbye Summer!

Have I said I hate Labor Day Weekend? I always have, ever since I was elementary age, I would cry when Labor Day came. So I should be proud to say that this year's was not so bad. We were out in Rhinelander WI (Hodag capital of the world) for a friend's wedding reception and it was a good time. Luckily the rain and other weather altogether missed us and we were outside the whole time. Cool.

Not so cool was the world's longest move which took place Monday to Thursday and is still somewhat happening. I moved down to Lake Harriet with an old college buddy and since I will be sharing space with someone else about half of my stuff ended up at Ben's, in boxes, in trailers and in sheds. I was rushing around this morning trying to find my check book, cell phone charger and other necessities but had no luck. I don't know where anything is, my mom came down and helped me pack so I have an excuse besides being crazy for not finding stuff but still what a drag.

Compound all this not cool moving stuff with my hacking cough and well life is awesome. The Dr. said it was/is a virus that was compounded by a sinus infection but looking on web md I think I have whooping cough. Either way the antibiotics should clear it up, I hope. The pulled muscle in my left side ab has somewhat subdued the coughing but I still sound like a overweight smoker. For those of you who have hung out with me in the past two weeks, I am sorry.
