The upside to the DNC

The biggest positive about the DNC is that I have seen several people riding their bikes, taking the bus or walking to work or to attend to errands. It is awesome and I believe that we all should be more green.
Think about it...it is better physically and enviromentally. Of course, it wasn't busy at the Bull, but I did walk there and enjoy the energy of the city. Denver is brimming with protesters, politicians and locals trying to avoid the craziness. I am glad that I will miss part of it. I am glad that people are experiencing the beauty of Denver, but I do enjoy my life the way it is.
Yesterday, I drank wine with Sara jo and it was great. I miss her and all of our restaurant adventures. Before we moved in together, we would get together once a week and check out a new restaurant in Denver. I miss that, but she is in school and I am trying to figure out my next adventure. Any suggestions?
This week will fly by and although I love the idea of Chicago, I am also gearing up for my housewarming party. I have been guaranteed a keg of Bull and Bush beer by Gabe and Jeff and believe that Dave will stop by to check out our new place. I need to go wine shopping, food shopping and also take care of some other needs. I can't wait though to celebrate my anniversary dinner in Chicago and our new rental in Denver. I am also considering dinner parties once every few months, too. We will see...

I am exhausted!! School is going to be very intense. Work has been crazy and I don't see an end in sight. I think school is going to be great. I enjoy the vibe I am getting from the instructors.

I saw bits of the convention while I was on break. I should have taped it. I hope you have a chance to catch some of the positive energy for the convention.

I am pretty zoned out right now so I will cut this short.

I am thinking of you often. I may be busy with homework and not calling as often, please know that I am keeping up with your life via the blog. I already have homework and a quiz on the first night!!!

Eat, Drink and Be Merry while you enjoy Chicago. I know it may be a bit cold but you should take a quick walk down by the lake. I always feel peaceful when I can see the water.

Love, Shari
