You may be saying to yourself, Taylor, it's not the new year yet, how could you possibly do a year in review?? Well my uninformed friend, yesterday marked my one year anniversary since I packed up 2 suitcases and moved to Colorado. What a year it's been! I can't believe how fast it went. In this time I've had 4 jobs (one temporary, 2 part time, one full time), bought a car, moved twice (within Boulder and then to Westminster), had countless visitors come to see me, and have totally lived up my fair share of free tickets to events through my work.
I've kept all my ticket stubs in my checkbook since I've moved here... I've taken them out today to start over, let's see how many I've accumulated!
Colorado Rapids (soccer)- 5
Colorado Avalanche (hockey)- 10
Denver Nuggets (basketball)- 13
Colorado Rockies (baseball)- 10
Colorado Mammoth (lacrosse)- 1
Concerts and shows - 10 + both days of the Mile High Music Festival
Avenue Q
John Mellencamp
Eddie Izzard
Blues Traveler/Live/Collective Soul
Sheryl Crow
The Peking Acrobats
Bon Jovi
Billy Joel
Van Halen
The Nutcracker
If you're adding all this up, that equals 51 days of events! That's one for every week I've been here... well minus one, unless you include the Av's game I'm going to tonight! Yay! I think that's pretty impressive especially if you consider that all of the Nuggets, Av's, Rapids and Mammoth games were FREE!!
Anyway... everyone at work is at the LDI convention in Las Vegas except me, the shop guys, and the ladies in accounting. LAME! This morning and early afternoon have been pretty crazy for us but I don't mind. What I hate is the fact that I was invited to go in March and then I was told that I wasn't going! What a bunch of shit. Pair that with evyerthing else that's been going on here lately and if I didn't know better......
Hey everyone look!! We got grapefruits at work today!! Thanks Uncle Stan for getting us fruits that are completely impractical to eat at your desk... or anywhere that doesn't have extensive knifeware for that matter!! See our office gets a new fruit every Wednesday during the month of October. Peaches, Pears, bannanas, now grapefruits... we were doing ok until now. What's next week Uncle Stan... whole pineapples??!? Honestly...
