100 Miles

So I've joined the SRSS 100 mile club. The goal is to run 100 miles in 100 days. It's totally an achievable goal, the only issue is whether or not I'm motivated enough to run a mile every day. Today on my way home I drove around the Prov campus and planed a one mile route, and after getting everything together I went and ran the mile. It only took me 15 minutes ... So that's not too bad. It made me knees hurt though. Last spring I ran on the tredmill nearly every day but running outside is way different. I'm not sure what I'll do when it gets really cold.

In other news ... I officially got time off to go to the Olympics!! I'm looking forward to it! The olympic flame is coming to Steinbach in January I would like go see it just to complete the experience.

Anyways ... Like I said before now that I can update my blog from my phone I'll be able to update on my 100 mile progress!

Until next time!

So it's been awile

Harry Potter was Awesome!

Hey everybody!

So yesterday I had the opportunity to go see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince! How was I able to do this since the movie doesn't come out until tomorrow you ask? Well ... I was listening to the radio on Saturday and I heard that they were going to give away a pass to an advanced screening. So at the cue to call I called and they answered and said cause I waited on the line for so long they would give me tickets even though I wasn't the first to call!

So yesterday Kathy and I went into the city to pick up the tickets. We got them at around 1:30pm and the movie didn't start until 7 so we had some time to kill. We decided to go to the Canadian Mint cause it was something that we have wanted to do for a while. It was a pretty good tour. I got to lift a gold bar worth about $500,000. It's the most money that I have ever held in my life!!

So after that we went for supper and they we were off to the theater. It was a good thing that we arrived an hour and a half early cause the theater was about 1/4 full and about 30 min later it was over half full. We got great seats.

The movie it self was awesome! I won't tell you anything about it cause that would be lame. You'll just have to go see it your self. It met my expectations. I can't wait until 19 November 2010 for part 1 of Deathly Hallows, and 15 July 2011 for part 2!

Here is a slide show of some pics

A Crazy Rain Storm & A short animation

This one is called,

The Adventures of Wilson!
We found a ball and made a movie ... we were bored ...

A Grand Time in the U. S or A

Kathy and I decided to go away for our anniversary this year. This is the first year we did something other than order chineese food and rent a movie. We went to Grand Forks, North Dakota. We had super fun times! We discovered the wonderful world of Super Target. It's sort of like Zellars only way better. We also discoverd the wonderful world of flip flops at Old Navy for $1 !! I also bought a cool new watch.

We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express. It had a pool and a hot breakfast, so we took advantage of both. On Saturday night we went to this place called 'l Bistro. I had this baked penne with shrip, crab, and scallops. It was yummy!

The craziest thing was the gas prices! We paid $2.39/gal with works out to about $0.59/l !! How is it that we pay $0.93/l in Canada and 2 hours south it's 34 cents cheaper! We are getting super ripped off!!! Dam the Man! Save the Empire! But what can you do eh?

I aslo thought it was funny how when you enter the US there are all these scanners that you pass by and they have dogs sniffing your car and the border guard has you open your doors so he can see inside and he's mean and gruff and has a gun. BUT when you enter canada there is just a person sitting on a chair in a booth and there are no scanners or dogs or guns ... It's like saying, "welcome to Canada eh? We'll let anybody in!" Maybe the Canadian Government should re-brand it self with that as thier new slogan.

Anyways, that was our weekend. It was pretty fun, we would like to go again sometime, but we need to get our passports first.

Untill next time ...

ps. Don't Panic ... Happy Towel Day ...

Hello Fellow Fellows ...

Hey,

I haven't text blogged in quite some time ... here is the the update.

Kathy was away for 13 days, and I bached it up good times ... I made Guiness marinaided steak one night and that was sweet! If you wanna read about Kathy's trip GO HERE . I also watched some movies, played some video games and did some house hold projects. I painted, installed 2 dimmer switches, hung some curtin rods (BTW, what do you call 2 men with no arms and no legs hanging in a window? Curt and Rod! HA! HA! HA!) ... anyways I also hung some pictures. All in all a productive 2 weeks, but a boring 2 weeks. Life is soooo much better when Kathy is around. I would get home at 4:30pm and after letting the dog out I would stand in the middle of the living room and be like, "Ok, now what ... " It's nice t ohave someone to hang out in the evenings.

In other news ...

My job is going well. This semester started off a little slow, but it's picking up now. I get to go and work out with a student every day. I discovered that I like running, so I think I might train for a 10k event that's comming up in September. We'll see though ...

In other news ...

Kathy and I going to take our dog, Zoey, sheep hearding tonight. I think it'll be super fun, and I think that Zoey will have a blast. I don't really know much about it, but from the website it sounds cool. They say if your dog has natural hearding instincts, like my dog ... she's a border collie lab mix .. that providing an outlet for that instinct might calm down your dog a bit. This might be good because we might have issues if Zoey decided that our baby needs to be hearded around the living room ... it might be comical but it might cause problems .... I'll let ya'll know how that works out ...

We'll I think that's all from me at the moment .... Life is pretty steady and peaceful, which is nice, we'll see how long that lasts ... hehe ...

Untill next time ...
