What a fantastic weekend in Michigan! Mom and Kathy picked Corner and me up from the airport when our flight arrived at 1:40am on Friday. We drove home from the Detroit airport and the 4 of us went to bed around 3am. Friday we went to the bike shop on Leroy St. and I bought [...]

Michigan State beat Michigan today. Hell. Yes. Words cannot express how sweet this victory is. Band kids, get your jackets cleaned. Corner and I are going to celebrate tonight from all the way out in California. I really wish I could have been at the game. Dear Spartan Marching Band, I miss you and wish [...]

This entry is mostly just a quick test to ensure that my cross-posting plugin is doing its job. I’m experimenting with having the comments cross-posted as well, but that [...]
Lots going on, so a quick update. Corner and I went out for sushi on his birthday and to PF Chang’s for our 2 year anniversary. I suppose I could pause for a moment and reflect on how amazing he is and the fact that we’ve been dating 2 years and it feels like 2 [...]
Nigel, Corner, and I have arrived in California safe & sound. We are currently staying with Bolt, another former SMB tuba, in Fairfield. Bolt’s place is on the edge of the good & bad parts of town. Let’s just say I don’t take the dog out alone at night. On Sunday we drove into the [...]
I apologize for keeping everyone in suspense regarding my plans at this important juncture of my life. Corner flew in to Indianapolis on the evening of Tuesday, August 5. We had a late night snack at Triple XXX (probably my favorite place in West Lafayette!). My last day of work was Wednesday, August 6. I [...]
