And an update on Rachael and Richard

So last night I cut Richard's hair again, and except for going a bit heavy handed on the bangs, I think I did a "bang-up job" with the rest of it. Richard looks pretty handsome, and part of that is his natural good looks of course, but I like to think I just helped to enhance it.

Richard is doing a lot of studying right now. Sometimes he studies for real stuff (he just took the exams and became a "certified fraud examiner") and sometimes he does stuff just for fun (he took a practice LSAT once and got a better score than me). I think he really misses school. He watches Jeopardy almost every night. He thinks it should be called "Easy-pardy" because he gets almost all the questions right (except for the sports questions). So studying helps keep him sharp.

I am running my half marathon this Saturday. Rock on! I am aiming for just over two hours, but we will see how it goes. My 12 miler went pretty well a week ago, so I am hoping for the best. It feels good to race again.

We are continuing to rock "Friday night buffalo chicken pizza and movie night"-- our date night tradition!

It has been the same weather/temperature here in Seattle since January. mid 50 degrees is fine for winter weather, but WHERE IS MY SUMMER? We are both so turned around-- we don't know what time of year it is. I just know that when my sister Carly told me that she had recently gone swimming in St. George, I asked her if it was warm enough for he to be going swimming so early in the year. Its JUNE for goodness sake!
