After class, Jake and I ran around and did some errands and then I was off to Spokane with some friends. We did some much needed Costco shopping and canning. At Costco we manage to lose our driver, fill up on free samples and polish dogs, fill the cart, and fill up the car with gas all in a record time. At the cannery I managed to "fling" sugar everywhere. Not on purpose! I thought the lid was on the can when I went to seal it. It wasn't. The can spun at what seemed like Mach three, full with sugar. Everyone just stopped and looked at me. Then we took a small time out of our smooth running assembly line to clean. Overall we had a blast and the hour and 15 minute drive up went so fast. We even had a good scare on our way home as we watched two vehicles directly in front of us nearly hit each other head on at 65 mph! That always wakes everyone up!
Late Friday evenings our house is the hot spot for movie night. Jake's coworker always has the latest and greatest hits available. Sometimes they are not so great and everyone starts adding their own commentary. We watched 2012. I'm not sure what I was expecting but I thought it was rather lame.
Saturday morning we met up with some friends to go for a run. Jake has been running this 5K for a couple of weeks and so I thought I would give it a try. I thought "this should be cake". Until I realized we live in a valley of hills. I'm not talking about gradual incline. I'm talking about a straight up run and then straight down and then up, down, up, down. I think there are two stretches of flatness. They total 0.2 miles. I did well but not as well as I could. I might be ready to run this beast perfectly by race day.
Saturday afternoon we went to the baseball game. WSU was playing Utah Utes. WSU might totally suck at football, can hold their own at basketball, but ROCKS in baseball. I know it's early in the season but they are 9-0. They didn't slaughter the Utes but made quite the dent in the score board (10-4).
Saturday evening was the main event. We car pooled over to the Beasley Event Center and watched a once in a life time event. WWE Smack Down: Road to Wrestlemania. It was so stinkin' funny to watch! It was the most pathetic acting ever. I have to admit it was fun to yell and boo the wrestlers. There is this one wrestler that did some cool flips and swings and jumps. At one point I was told I had to put my camera away because they thought I was recording the show. Seriously? Why would I record WWE? During a break Jake talked to the ushers about the camera. I was then given the okay. I didn't think I took a lot of pictures but when we got home I had taken 66! hahaha there were just a lot of good action shots! What am I going to do with 66 WWE pictures!
And today starts Sunday . . . hmm what to do . . .

Yes, 2012 is totally lame!! Although, I laughed so hard when he was driving through California in a limo and never got hit. What in the world!?!
This is going to seem totally random to you considering you don't know me, but I know your husband. His sister Katie and I were friends in the family ward in Spokane. My name is Gailyn (White) Terry. I was just doing that internet stalking thing where you're curiosity of people you knew in the past takes over and you jump from facebook page to facebook page and blog to blog. Everyone does it right? Anyway, am I mistaken in assuming you live in Pullman right now? I've been here in Pullman for about 5 1/2 years now and I'm just always suprised to find out someone I used to know is living here as well! Sorry, I'll get to my point! I saw that you have Eosinophilic Esophagitis. I have a friend whose son was also just diagnosed with the same thing (only his is quite a bit worse). If you're not opposed to alternative therapies, I know of a way that you can fix your allergies. I had to do it just to survive allergy season in these parts! Also we fixed my daughter's allergies to wheat, dairy, orange juice, tomatoes, ect, ect.. Anyway, again, I know this all sounds totally random but I felt like I should say something! Feel free to e-mail me if you want! gdterry@gmail.com
WOW! that looks like a super fun week. At least you aren't bored, right?
No wonder you guys don't come to visit! It sounds like you guys are having so much fun in Pullman of all places! Well, little roadtrips in and out of pullman. ^_^ Miss you guys!

So Alex rented 2012 last night while I was at work and said that the movie was so awful that he returned it before I could watch it because it was THAT bad. I like the WWE pictures. Too bad you didn't know who you were taking a picture of so you could post it so we would know who you were taking a picture of. Bad acting? Really? I can't imagine.
