Sitting in Seattle

It's 6:00 a.m. in Seattle, i'm waiting for my flight home, which happens in about 3 hours.

Anyway, i'm sorry i never really got going with this blog. This summer was pretty incredible, but i'm tired and ready to be back in Chicago.

So my adventure ends.

Pub Quiz

Tonight was a great night.

Our team won a pub quiz. Alot of people don't know that in high school i was a Quiz Bowl nerd. Trivia games are my favorite things in the world. There were ten teams and we were in first place throughout...due to judge bribery, we had to go to a sudden death match with a team that wasn't deserving. What transpired was awesome...

The tiebreaker question was how long did the lunar landing module stay on the moon on our first moon landing....I was pretty sure it couldn't have been more than a couple hours, but due to the rules if we went over, we would lose... Our team decided on 5 hours and 45 minutes.

I was chosen as our team's delegate. The other team asked..."Can we go first" Of course I said yes...she said "1 hour and 15 minutes" I said "1 hour and 16 minutes" The actual answer was 21 hours +. The other team was furious with my Price is Right tactics....but who cares. We won, and the bar thought it was funny...so we all win.

Sorry for the lack of updates..I've been busy.

also, I've been watching the Olympics non-stop.

My phone!!

My phone died.

It is a goner. I opened it up and tried to fix it, which did for about a day, then i burned out the battery. Whoops..

Anyhow, if you are calling or texting, i'm not getting it.

On a happier note, i finally broke down and began watching Battlestar Galactica, I've always promised myself that i would not jump in those waters, but I did. I was wrong, it is an amazing show. If anyone has season 4 on some sort of disc, and would like to help a poor Alaskan finish the series, let me know...you would be well paid for your efforts. Right now I'm a few episodes in to season 3....what a show...!

ATV Rides

So, Jill from Chicago was in the area today before she went off to do an improv show in Anchorage. We decided to go ATVing. It was a great time, and it led us to two really nice overlooks.

On a side note, sorry for the lack of updates, i've been pretty busy. I have a few blog posts planned, so hopefully i can pick up the pace.
