And today is Valentine's. Great day to decide to start blogging again, right? But as we all know, Valentimes is serious times.
But seriously, it's tines. And I'm blogging. Since I have no lover (I was going to link to an SNL skit here, but I can't find the link, so you'll just have to deal with that word all on it's own), I shall talk about other things I love. Like baby animals and licorice. And this list of stuff:
1. Germany. I just went to Germany. It was awesome. I went for 10 days with my brother, Brian, and we stayed with my uncle and his family, which included, among spouses and children, a python, a bearded dragon, and some rabbits that hang out in the backyard.
Germany is beautiful. Between about 5,000 castles, the Alps, the Cyclocross World Champinoships, and Spezzi, it is absolutely amazing. I can talk about it for a long time, but I will not right now and will (fingers crossed) write another post about it with pictures and stuff.
2. Roller Derby. I do roller derby. It rocks. And hurts. And makes me eat like a banshee. I'm sore for days afterwards, I have some permanent bruises on my butt, and I feel quite certain I'm going to die at various times during practice. There are, however, few things I love more. Oh, and I picked a name. Wait for it...
Lil' Dread Riding Hood
A.k.a. Dread and/or Lil' D in the Hood, and looks something like this:

4. BABY ANIMALS! 'nuff said.
5. Costumes. I am currently on my third day in a row of costumes, and it's the third best day of my life. Day 1 was a 1940's swing getup. Day 2 was a mermaid. Day 3 is Ke$ha. Brilliance.
So that's it, kitty cats! Happy Valentine's!

there should be various shots of me mixed in there.
I'll try and come up with a post with some costume photos, though I don't think I took any of the Ke$ha outfit.
I hope to do/see/try all of these items one day.
Also, what excuses did you have for three costume days in a row?
The first, Joel, was a ward party/dance. The second was a friend's birthday party (and you know how I feel about theme parties), and the third was the "Dress as Your Favorite Celebrity Valentine's/Oscars Party" at work.
