Achey Muscles

There hasn't been a point since I lived here when I haven't been sore. I am so much more active here than I have been living anywhere else. First of all this city is built on hills. I have my feet and my bicycle to take me to places (I rarely ride the bus). Second of all, leaving our house requires going up a hill, theres no escaping it. I work at Trader Joes where we move around a lot, and lift a lot of things. I don't feel like I look any different, but I just feel the strongest I've been in my adult life. It feels good to be sore. Mmmm.

Madelyn Elizabeth Delster was born yesterday. She is beautiful:

Mike and Emily, I am so happy for you both. Congratulations!

Tonight my friend Kristie,

who works in the wine department at the store, is starting her second job as a bartender. The Lookout has its grand opening tonight. Tim and I and some other people from the store are going to go. It willl be fun. (Also, remember when I captured Danae's essence in that awesome picture of her? Well, this is me capturing Kristie's essence.)
