Ok this might turn into more than one reason. This morning I went on a great hike with Kathy up the backside of Flattop. I figured even if the doctor says to go easy on my knee with running I still need to train for Mt. Marathon (eep!) and even though it was sort of a grey day we had lots of fun! Long hikes in the mountains are a great place to solve all the problems of the world. I'm going to miss having the mountains so accessable next year.
I had a little bit of a bummer afternoon. I called a bunch of the other places that I had applied for jobs and several of them told me that they were done hiring people. Darn! But I'm still holding out hope for a few of them. I decided that I needed an uplift so where did I go but the yarn shop....I needed to get some yarn to reinforce the strap on my cool felted bag that Charis got me in Norway. After the yarn store I headed to the grocery store. Since my parents are so busy this summer I have become the default grocery shopper/dinner cooker. But never fear, the grocery store was the best part of the day! First I ran into Darcy,a friend from high school who wants to go hiking, and then I ran into Andy, who I didn't think I was going to get to see at all this summer. You would think that I wouldn't be so excited to see an ex-boyfriend but he's a really nice guy that I wouldn't mind hanging out with again (in a friendly sort of way). I left the store in a much better mood, feeling like life is good. Hooray for being home and seeing friends at the grocery store!

Oh, the joys of finding a job...It is true that a good hike can solve your problems. It is good you can repair the bag. I just sewed a few stiches on mine, but I am sure you have a better method. Eivind is motivating me to read my paper, while I sit here with a huge headache. Plus, it is about 37 degrees and raining. We have midnight sun now, but the sun is not out anyways! :=)You have to check out the anonymous comments on my blog, wonder where those came from:) See you soon!
Yay--I can comment now! We miss you in SLC! :) Pounding the pavement for a job is no fun, that's for sure. See ya! Teri
