May Showers

My fellow bridesmaids and I have been planning my friend's wedding shower for about two months now. Tomorrow is the big day. This morning I opened up my iGoogle homepage and this is what I saw:

Doesn't look good for a party outside. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the weather(men/women) are wrong.

How I Spent My Memorial Day Weekend

My family took a trip to Ogunquit, ME to celebrate my sister's college graduation - congrats AL. We had a blast. Here are a few of the highlights:

• Mini-golf (twice)


• The Egg & I


• Jager Bombs


• Karaoke at Maxwell's Pub


• "Breeze" at Barnacle Billy's


• First lobster roll of the summer

Saving the Environment or Saving a Buck?

I dusted off my old bike this weekend. With the help of my boyfriend, we adjusted the seat and handle bars to fit my current size (the last time I rode it, I was probably 10). My intentions are to ditch my car twice a week and ride my bike to work. I know a lot of you might think, "wow, how economically friendly," but as much as I'm all about "going green," it kills me to fill up my gas tank.

So, if you see me riding the streets of Waltham on a bright purple Huffy, you'll know why. Let's see how long this lasts.
