VOTE ALREADY!!!

Matt and I voted last Tuesday and we have a little two person election party planned for this evening. I'm just so excited about everything! For those of you who haven't yet, GO VOTE ALREADY!!!

I promised a Halloween post. We spent the first part of the evening at Matt's boss's party. Matt went as a judge and, after looking through my closet, I decided to go as a 1940's pin-up girl. I'm not sure how great of an idea that was but oh well. We spent the rest of the night at Jess and Jacob's playing heroscape. It was boys vs. girls and while the boys technically won I think it was a moral victory for the ladies. Jess and Jacob went with a super-nerdy set of matching costumes, they went as their Rock Band characters. lol

Bi-naversary! UPDATE!!!!

I can hardly believe it but today is Matt and my two year anniversary. Wow. It has been two fantastic years with someone I really love. I got him a nifty present that I won't disclose yet because I haven't given it to him. Matt made reservations for us to go to the Melting Pot. mmmm, cheese.... *wipes away drool* We're both very excited about it. He was really surprised how much he liked it last time we went and we've both been looking forward for a sufficient reason to go.

I'm also feeling very proud of myself because we did our part to help fix the country and went to vote today. The nice kids running the Obama booth gave me a sticker and a veggie burrito from Chipotle. Voting always makes me feel so warm and fuzzy. I encourage everybody to do the same. I guess even if you want to vote for someone who thinks my job is pointless and a poor use of money. How lame is it that I study colon cancer in fruit flies, I kid you not.

UPDATE!!!! In case anyone was worried by my twitter updates. I did not intentionally stab myself with a fondue fork. I was trying to spear some asparagus while holding it and went through the asparagus and into my hand. Not too bad though, it is almost completely healed. I did give Matt his present. It was a large rectangular frame that has glass on both side and inside of it i put three vintage (ca 1920-1940) Notre Dame postcards. Two of them are linen and have that look like the old Technicolor movies since they were colored in afterward. Matt loved it. I was even more excited by his present to me. He got us two tickets to go see the Trans Siberian Orchestra just before Thanksgiving. w00t!!! I've wanted to see them for so long but it has never worked out before. Check out their website (link above) to see their awesomeness.
