Update!

I’m awful at blogging!  =(  But there is so much that has happened!  Let’s see….

First off…we got a new car!  We ended up getting a 2009 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport!!!  Peter did so much of the research on how to buy a car & the whole experience was really painless!  *shocked!*  Not only that, they even traded in my old Taurus.  It’s soooo pretty & it’s got soooooo much more cargo space!  Besides that, we already installed a snowboarding rack on top.  Ready to ride!!!

Peter also got a taste of what professional gaming is like!  He registered in a local Street Fighter 4 tournament where we met Chun-Li!!!!  Honestly, I think Peter could’ve won.  I actually think he’s really good (even though I hate the game & I hate him playing it), but the second person he played in the match ended up being the tourney champion.  It was a good time regardless.  Mostly because I got to go home with a bunch of Girl Scout Cookies!!!  Sweeeeeet cookies……!!!   MmmmmMmmmm!!!

Most recently!!! Peter & I took some time off of work for our snowboarding trip up to Vail!  We’ve been planning this trip with Ian & Ching for months now!!!  Even though the snow wasn’t the greatest, it was still sooooo much fun!  All weekend, the boys would not stop teasing me about being fragile….calling me Mr. Glass.  Just cause I was boarding on a fractured ankle…they thought I was going to be carried down the mountain on a stretcher…Surprise!  I broke my back instead  =(   I was having too much freakin’ fun & I got carried away on a run.  I already took a few jumps here & there & then I saw what I thought was another small jump.  Took it at full speed…found out it wasn’t a little jump, more like a cliff with moguls on the bottom…All I remember is hitting the mogul & sliding for a long time.  The docs said I have a burst fracture in the T12 of my spine & it will take me ~8 weeks to recover.  In the meantime, I’m sitting in this ridiculous body cast that is supposed to keep my spine aligned &  I’m not supposed to do anything active or lift for 8 weeks…. zzzzzzzzzzomggggggg!!!!!  why do i have to be so stupid?!?!?!?!   *sigh*  Peter has me on lock-down.  He’s been great, but it’s been really hard for me to just sit still…  I really hope I don’t drive Peter crazy.   I’ll try to be better from now on out…
