Sleepy McGee

I would like to say that I wish Ash had come home earlier from her Women's Engineering thing so that we could have gone to bed a little earlier before our flight to Seattle tomorrow.

Jalapeno Poppers

I would like to thank Naveen for hosting a successful Scotch Club at his place even though Tomatin was sub-par and also congratulate Tim on successfully setting November 12th as his defense date.

JR Date

I would like to say that Carrie Underwood really has a phenomenal voice for how little she is and I can't believe the number of gimmicks/wardrobe changes she had in her show tonight.

Mac And Cheese, BBQ Chicken, And Asparagus

I would like to thank Ash for playing tennis and doing speed/agility drills with me today as I get ready for the upcoming flag football season and also for watching My Name Is Khan, which was a pretty good, but long, movie.

So Sweaty Hot Again

I would like to state that Stanford is going to be a national title contender after they beat Oregon next week to move to 5-0 after their dismantling of Notre Dame and I also want to thank Matt and Polina for hosting dinner tonight.

Pressure Cooker Fail

I would like to say that we really screwed up the Sambar tonight and need to figure out the appropriate recipe so that we don't get a gluey mush next time.

Date Night

I would like to thank Ash for cleaning up after dinner tonight when I fell asleep during the end of Date Night, which was a reasonably entertaining movie, at least for the part I saw.

Dr. Scanlan

I would like to congratulate Dr. Scanlan on successfully defending himself this morning and say that I'm glad I squeezed in my smog check and DMV registration in right before the deadline today.

Happy Birthday JR

I would like to say that although it took forever, it feels good to be back home and I want to thank Ash for organizing an incredible trip to Montana, wish Johnny R a happy 28th Birthday, and can't believe we're addicted to Lost.

Clean In Missoula

I would like to say that I'm happy we saw a baby black bear cub on our drive out of Many Glacier and that it was great to shower, check out Missoula, the University, and catch up with Laura at The Old Post this evening.

Grinnell Glacier And Muddy Horse Trails

I would like to say that they weren't kidding when they told us we'd get great wildlife in Many Glacier after seeing mountain goats, bighorn sheep, snakes, and moose on our hike up to the beautiful Upper Grinnell Lake and Glacier.

Cobalt Lake In Two Medicine

I would like to say that Cobalt Lake was an amazing hike with great views of Rockwell and Aster falls but I'm glad we didn't run into any bears and thankful that it stopped raining while we cooked dinner.

Welcome To Montana!

I would like to say that it's awesome to be in Montana and that our first little speed hike up to Avalanche Lake was amazing, especially since there was nobody up there, and that the people here are super nice and I can't believe all the stories the other Ashley and Chris told us by the campfire about being animal lovers/hunters at the same time.

Check In To Your Flight?

I would like to say that I'm super excited about flying to Missoula tomorrow to head to Glacier National Park and I want to thank Ash for doing a good job keeping it a secret until now and hope that it's not too cold/snowy while we're there.

Bear Canister?

I would like to say that I'm pretty excited but a little bit nervous about this surprise trip that requires a bear canister that Ash has planned for us this weekend and that the Job Fair was mediocre at best.

I Started Lost

I would like to say Ash is working too hard but I am excited for the surprise ride this weekend even though I have no idea where we're going or what I'm in for.

Late Dinner And Late Laundry Night

I would like to say that having pizza leftovers is the best and that I enjoyed the first half of There Will Be Blood and I can't believe Ash watched an episode of Lost before going to bed.

Sunday, September 12, 2010

Bub's Pillow Making Skills

I would like to say that our homemade pizza party for Ash's friends was a huge success and it felt good to have our floors clean for about 20 minutes before they got dirty again.

Saturday, September 11, 2010

Stanford 2-0

I would like to say that today was fairly busy and productive chorewise considering we played tennis, went to the gym, washed our cars, fit my car in the garage, bought expensive knives, went grocery shopping, sipped scotch, and watched Stanford embarrass UCLA.

Friday, September 10, 2010

Pathetic

I would like to say that it's ridiculous that we fell asleep at 7:30 and only woke up at 9 to eat dinner and then go back to sleep.

Thursday, September 9, 2010

The NFL Season Is Here

I would like to make sure we play tennis tomorrow after we bailed this evening because cooking took too long and wish that the Saints offense was more prolific after Meachem only got me one fantasy point today.

Wednesday, September 8, 2010

Milkshakes With A Breadstick Straw

I would like to say that the new Roasted Chicken on the never-ending pasta bowl at OG is pretty solid, I can't believe our waitress brought up 2 girls 1 cup after Justen told her Timm studies poop, and that I would also like to thank Ash for spending 2 hours cooking dinner, which will be my delicious lunch tomorrow.

Nutty Buddy Franklin At Illium

I would like to say that I'm impressed with all the changes on Cornell's campus and I'm a little sad to be back in CA but enjoyed the time with the fam and appreciate that it's not so hot here.

Monday, September 6, 2010

Finally Finished Ray

I would like to say that our time with my bro and Carolina was pretty brief but good and I'm glad my parents liked the rearranged living room setup Ash came up with and the lowered paintings on the wall.

Sunday, September 5, 2010

Planting Plum Trees And Landscaping

I would like to say that it feels good to be back at my parents house and I would like to thank Ash's aunt and uncle for making us breakfast in Skaneateles and state that I can't believe I left my suit at the Holiday Inn.

Saturday, September 4, 2010

Hutch Becomes A Thurston

I would like to congratulate Steph on a great wedding and say that playing football in the parking lot was pretty strong although we probably should have hit up the Great NY State Fair and I would also like to thank our event planner Cuso, for taking us to Coppertop and showing us his sister's house that he practically built.

Friday, September 3, 2010

Blue Tusk And Daisy Dukes

I would like to say that Dino BBQ did not disappoint and that I can't believe how much I struggled to recognize Arinze Onuaku, Terrence Roberts, and Hakim Warrick tonight.

Thursday, September 2, 2010

Last Redeye For A While

I would like to say that the lasagna I made today was delicious but we're done with the CSA since we end up wasting some of the vegetables every two weeks and I would also like to thank Paul and Megan for driving us to the airport and entertaining us the whole ride.

Rice Krispie Treats

I would like to wish Andy a Happy Birthday and say that I'm glad he didn't figure out the surprise when he had Chieze's phone at the gym this morning.
