East Coast Watch Out

This is a warning to the east coast, because Tara Traeder is about to come terrorize another region of the US! I am so excited!!! I've been waiting for for forever.

Hi girls! How are my favorite ladies? Last I heard married life was treating Chels and Whit really well, which I am both thrilled but unsurprised by. Look at those wonderful hubbies you guys have! Gina what's the deal with your boy? Are you and Mark still together? Are you even reading this now?

So girls a lot has been happening in the 2 weeks since I returned from our favorite continent. Getting back to work has been a bit ugh but getting used to it I suppose. This is the last week of our summer hours, so back to insanely long days next week, but that's ok. I moved into my new place with Jen and Pete, college buddies, the day I got back, and finished moving in all of my stuff this weekend. Took a huge trip to IKEA and got lots of stuff for the palce, and it looks fantastic! Much better thatn I thought it would turn out, and I thought it would be great! Last night around 12, Jen and I went 'Dumpster Diving', apparently a very popular sport here in NYC and got a huge, actually really nice couch. Jen ahd found it and wanted to go pick it up, and I figured if Jen wanted it,then it had to be good. She is the most picky and OCD person about clean I have ever met, God love her. Seriously this girl won't walk around our own apartment without shoes, but here she is scourering the streets. But anyway you should have seen the 3 of us carrying this couch down the street at midnight. This woman tried to steal it from us! Apparently she had had her eye on it, too. She was kinda crazy though. I tell you this city is full of some characters. we saw 2 guys in our building carrying in some stuff of their own.

So that's the apartment saga. It's just begging for visitors. Don't wory I won't make you sleep on the couch, though we are gettting it steamcleaned.

I am now busy preparing for my Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. I emailed you all about it a few days ago, it's the 39 mile walk in October that I am busy training and fundraising for. And my dear friend Traeder will be a volunteer there that weekend as well, so looking forward to some QT with her. Anyway I have to raise $1,800 to participate, so I'm using our sacred blog for my own personal use right now and asking you girls to go to www.avonwalk.org to take a look at what I'm doing and what is involved with being a participant. If it's a cause you'd like to sponsor me for, you can click on 'Donate' then 'Donate to a Participant' 'New York Walk' then enter my name. The email I sent you guys has a direct link, but my blogging skills aren't up to par yet and I can't figure out how to do that. Anyway if you get a minute to look at it, I would appreciate it.

Girls I'll be looking forward to a reunion for as long as it takes to happen. I miss you all so much, you are the finest group of people I have ever met. Hope everyone is well. Love you all.
