No wonder I'm stinking hot. It's 85.1 degrees outside.
Ah, spring swells into summer.

Spring Break!
One little class left this evening between me and spring break. It's hard to believe it's already spring break and I know life will zip by after we are back at the end of March. What am I doing? This Spring Break I'm taking the train to San Francisco, then biking and camping my way down to Los Angeles. I've been wanting to do this for years!
So, tomorrow I pull out of the Denver Amtrak Union Station on the California Zephyr, heading West to San Francisco. I'm so excited to see the snow covered purple mountains. I'm serious, the mountains here at sunset are purple and beautiful. I have never seen this part of the country and I thought watching it pass by from a train window seemed proper for my modern frontier exploration. It's been a bit of a hustle to get my things packed and together. I still have to actually take apart (some of) the bike and pack it in this massive box. I'm a wee bit nervous now, but I'm sure it'll all work out. I'll learn a lot -- about bike touring, the country in which I live, and, of course, about myself.
An adventure I'm sure to remember!

Made it to Friday
Quick updates --
I have been laying off the running this week (and next) because my heel is sore. I'm afraid it's plantar fasciitis. This means lots of elliptical. I miss running and being outside. :( I think riding should be okay, so I'm going to head out for a ride this weekend.
I was offered my dream internship in DC! Very excited about it for so many reasons. More on that later. The jobs, the friends, the family, the new (diverse! international!) city -- cannot wait!
I went to PILG Auction last night. Open bar (which I can never seen to get my money's worth), fun mingling, dressed up fancy, and had a good 80s cover band. I thought I was going to get pulled over when I was driving home because I was so tired I was driving terribly.
The quarter ends next week. I have 1 15 page paper; 1 10 page paper/final exam; 1 25 page paper; 1 presentation; 1 20 page paper. I'm sleep deprived and my head is spinning. Spring break is coming up!
Um, hi. It's March. Can't believe that.
