I call my home West Chester Pennsylvania permanently once again ever since I finished college in May 2002. Now I work all day for some old man in the mushroom office faxing and copying, copying and faxing, and while I'm at it I get my fair share of mushrooms to take home too. My major hobbies include reading books incredibly fast and beating any worthy opponent at the game of deduction. In fact it doesn't just have to be a game of deduction, I could go for any game that you can pull out of the closet, not knowing the rules, and try to pretend you know what's going on. It makes it more fun that way.
I've always been a big fan of card games like Skipbo (The skip-bo-potamus perhaps? ), Phase 10, Palace, Split, and UNO. And on top of that I love word games like scrabble, boggle, and crossword puzzles. I usually eat dinner at exactly the same time every day, but if I get going on a crossword puzzle, it might be 7 o'clock before I even look up and realize I'm hungry.
I really like the summer months (although it's still fun to get all bundled up and cozy up by the fire) because everything outside just looks so alive. I love the beach, the flowers, the frolicking in the back yard, and the view of the night sky from a blanket layed out in the grass. And even though I have no chance of beating my brothers at them, I like the sports too. But not to worry, I've got some big guys around that have got my back.
But while I'm thinking of my family, let me just tell you the one thing that I adore the most. And that is my cute little nieces Isabella and Ryleigh! I love reading to them and holding them while they sleep and playing with them all day long. I wish I could take them home and keep them for my own! I don't think Scott or Michelle would be down with that idea though.
Well that about does it here for me, you know how I like to turn in early. So I'll leave you with some photos that remind me of the people I love. It is so rare that friends from high school can stay so close for so many years after they have moved on to new places in their lives, and I feel very lucky to be able to still have all of you around when I come home. I love all you guys!
