been a long time.

Hey team. I know I have been MIA for almost a month.  I will again blame that on Grad School.  Ive been so busy and can honestly say that I worked harder this summer than during most of my undergrad put together. But that is the nature of the game.

Last weekend I was in Milwaukee doing the Riverwest 24, a 24 hour bike race in the Riverwest neighborhood, where my brother and his fiance live.  It was a ton of fun (pics soon to come.)  And while I didn't ride as much as I would have liked, I got in about 65 miles, my fasted lap (4.5 miles) was about 16 minutes and 16 seconds. Pretty proud of that.

Also, yesterday was my 28th birthday. It was a lovely day, and while I was in class, my cohort/classmates are pretty great, which make it not so bad. I also had to work, but my skills group (made up of 4th-6th graders) we a joy as always and even gave me a HUGE Group bear hug. It was heart warming.  AND my night got finished up with a DELICIOUS taco bar. holy cow, it was so good. You know I love me some tacos! And tonight, my lovely lady organized a gathering to celebrate life with me. I am beyond grateful for her (and all of my friends. I got about a million fb birthday messages from all kinds of great people. it made my day!)

So that is where I am at for the moment. I have one week left of the semester, and one week left at my job (I've been at Fraser for 6.5 years....it is going to be a bittersweet end.)

Let's move forward with out list. #16 is a song you used to love but now you hate. Now, there are a lot of songs I hate, and a handful of song I loved but no longer do. But it is rare that there are songs I loved but now hate.  So I will give you a song I used to really like by it got old and I no longer appreciate it.

I used to dance the shit out of this song at weddings. back when I was 10. Now, I find it a little annoying.
