Friends and Fantasy Football

Alliteration!


Hey therrr! I trust you had a nice Labor Day holiday last weekend--oh that symbolic end to the wonderful summer season. Until next June, summer solstice! Aaron and I spent our Labor Dabor weekend in Muncie, IN eating tasty foods, playing geeky fun games, and hanging out in general with brother Ben Dean and his girlfriend Ashley. It was awesome. We really dropped the ball in terms of picture-taking despite having our camera with us, so, here's a picture of some food Aaron and I made on Wednesday.

And just this past Friday after I got out of work, we ventured down to the windy city. Nooo, not Amarillo. Chicago! We saw a bean...

Then we went inside the bean...

And then we journeyed around with RACHEL for the rest of the night!!!!

My dear friendly friend (and matron of honor at my wedding!) traveled from Pittsburgh for the CCDA conference, so we whisked her away from the Sheraton and did touristy things like... eat gelato. Look at strange photographs in the shop where we purchased said gelato. Take in a crazy view and learn about Chicago at the John Hancock Observatory. Discussed what Rachel should do on her "life quest"! Oh, I miss her already!!

Finally, guys, I'm playing Fantasy Football this year on a league with ten teams. Aaron complains that I don't play computer games with him, and I was curious, soooo---here's my team!

Dancin' Gary's! I still couldn't tell you what most of this means, but I think I'm winning so far. Nice.
