Springlike
A whole weekend spent in town! I was able to go to the Farmer’s Market (sweet potatoes) and Goodwill with Jenn, take two solo bike rides, spend some time getting our garden area ready for planing and having an early semester celebration with Tim at Casablanca, a yummy Moroccan restaurant on 4th. Tim has a few more papers left to turn in this week and then has a WHOLE WEEKEND before Summer Session I starts. He doesn’t need them(cuz he’s smart enough already), but send him brainy thoughts if you think of it.

Retirement
As of April 30, my dad will officially be retired after working for 37 years in the same position at the same library. I will never work for 37 years anywhere and I’m not even really sure if I’ve found the right career path. But I was able to take part in the festivities during a quick trip to Colorado and we all can’t wait to hear the fishing tales yet to come.

Thinking
Things I think about: food, coffee, being passionate about my work, quilts, fabric, Loki, Tim, classes, going back to school, work, work, work, am I eating enough fruit, going to the farmer’s market, Web 2.0, interns, photography, SPEA, The Commission for Sustainability, recycling, living green, whether I can see the New Pornographers in concert, being a good person, travel, friends, organic food, allergies, natural leave-in conditioner, exercise, switching to gmail, having a baby someday, paint colors, books, The Clash, religion, gardening, health care, family, whether I should get new highlights, crosswords, publicity, and politics.
In no particular order, and not meant to be inclusive or exclusive.

Let’s Pass Along the Viral Video Fun
Ok, this is NOT Sarah… it is her husband who should be doing his homework… However, my friend Mr. Suchy passed along the wonderful video of Rick Astley doing Never Gonna Give You Up. This is going around the Internet like wild fire, so I thought we should continue the wave. So here goes.

OMG… Barack Obama was @ Nicks
Well, Sarah is leaving for Indy for a night to visit a friend… but just minutes ago she was 10 feet away from Barack Obama. On his way through Indiana, Barack stopped at Armstrong Stadium to witness the start of the women’s Little 500 race. After staying there for some time, his bus made its way down to Kirkwood where 1000′s of people waited. Sarah, working on Kirkwood, was able to run down and snap some photos…
Obama was at Nicks playing Sink the Bizmark…. or maybe just shaking hands and kissing babies.
So Sarah is psyched! It was an exciting day.
