I forgot to talk about this yesterday, so here I am, with opportunity to talk about things today:
I was given the book "Dear John" last week by a friend. As you may know, it is written by Nicholas Sparks. I find no need to lie, I have read a few and enjoyed at least one of his other books... but you can't read too many of them one right after the other because... well... they're all the same. So anyways, I get "Dear John" and I start reading it and the only reason I finished it was because I had nothing else to do. But the reality of the situation is that you knew how it was going to turn out halfway through the book. You could easily skip paragraphs (if not pages) and still be fine. You know that Mr. Sparks is obsessed with the Carolinas and girls in summer dresses and sweet tea. You know that you're supposed to cry when one of the characters dies. In this book he pulls out the current "hot illness": asperger's. Really? Did you have to go there? He did. This book blew. I did not enjoy it. I need another book to read stat so that I can not hate myself anymore.
Moving on...
J and I are currently working on planning our post-wedding trip. Not your typical honeymoon because we're saving that trip for later in intern year... for this trip we are now heavily leaning towards Boston. Lots of stuff to see and do there. I haven't been there since Freshman year of college when a few of my friends and I drove up in a rickety van to watch teammates race in the Head of the Charles. I think this would be an all-together different experience. We had tossed around the idea of going to Toronto... but we have yet to get our passport applications turned in. We thought about renting a cabin somewhere and taking time with each other and the pup, but we're not sure that is exactly what we want to do... so we think Boston is going to be it...
Now for the fun part of today's post: Reebok!
A quick video for your viewing pleasure: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ky63OS45z-I
Reebok likes to play bocce, and it's one of the only things she seems interested in these days that tires her out.
And now a picture series:
1) Ah, I see you have brought me a gift.

2) Yes, would you like to smell or lick it?

3) What do you think of the quality of the 3-legged stuffed sheep?

4) It is good, you may continue to play with it and entertain me.
