My Trip to NYC and Getting Engaged

Wow do I have a lot going on. I've been meaning to write an update and explain a few projects I've been working on for a long time now, but lots has been put on hold. We've recently purchased a house and are getting ready to move, again. We've also had both sets of parents visit, been out of town, in town, then out of town. Needless to say I haven't caught a break for some time.

     However, I did get a chance to go back to the wonderful New York state and visit my college friends in NYC. I was originally going to keep this post a bit less personal, and describe all of the fun and fabulous things you can do in NYC for next to nothing. We may be employed but we are still budget-conscious people and NYC can rip a large hole in your wallet, quickly.

   Before I get started though, I do want to make an announcement. As of last Wednesday MB and are officially engaged!!! We've been together for 6 and a half years, so many of my friends have let me know "It's about time!" I was COMPLETELY surprised and the timing couldn't be more perfect. We were leaving the next day to go and see our college friends who have been around since we met. It was really special to have the opportunity to tell everyone in person. We are plenty busy right now, so I'll save wedding posts for another time. And yes, the ring is absolutely beautiful!

A is for Adrian

     I have tried to write this post several times this week, for some reason the words never sound right. So instead I will just tell the story, my story about a friend. Not just any friend, but someone who I hold close to my heart and I know I'm not the only one. For those of you who have been reading my blog from the beginning you know him too. He is an A in many of my stories. He was an avid reader of my blog, often commenting on my ridiculous stories and random musings.

     I awoke especially early Monday morning, groggy and half alive to a blaring alarm. I set the alarm the night before in hopes to catch A online before his Monday was over. As I rolled over to shut the alarm on my phone off I saw I had a message. Bleary eyed I squinted to make out the message. It was from C...it read: A is dead.

     A is for Adrian. Adrian, this is my letter to you...
