friday night happenings

Need something to do on a Friday night?
So I got out this electroshock kinda machine I got to help with my neck and shoulder after my car accident that I never used because I got pregnant right after. But Doug wanted to try it out on his shoulder and knee and basically everywhere and he has been having a great time shocking himself and others. Luckily since I'm pregnant he only tried it on me once on my leg... But Enos and Holli, not so lucky. We found out that Enos can take the voltage as high as it goes. He is the winner of the torture contest. Then Doug, then Holli, and then probably me. It was pretty entertaining though, and kinda freaky since it contorts your muscles and makes your hands and fingers and feet and muscles do all sorts of weird looking things. We should probably not make a habit of this.

Julia's 1/2 Marathon!

Julia Gulia did a half marathon in Moab this weekend! It was pretty cold there, but we had a fun time in the beautiful Canyonlands.  She finished the half marathon (13 miles) and she didn't even get picked up by the shuttle (for people on the main road past 12:30). As she crossed the finish line, the announcer said "Julia DeMartini!" and the song sang "Pour some sugar on me" by Def Leppard.  It was quite perfect. She finished in under 3 hours. Yay for her. :)  She was immediately sore after the long run though. 


This is a glass cube design I made in my Floral Design class.  I really like this class.  I'm really excited for spring, hence the vibrant spring colors.  I gave it to my roommate Zia for her birthday.
