Home from Houston

Hello, Calgary!

Today I got home from Houston. I had a wonderful time. Made new friends with my colleagues there, discovered an amazing new city, and enjoyed some respite from cold winter conditions.

It was great to get back to a clean, uncluttered house - I had finally finished my organizing project before I left (!) - and great to see Lorne again. On Saturday, we went on an underwear shopping spree. Lorne let me help him pick out new socks and underwear for work. As boring as that sounds, I had a fabulous time. He must have bought at least 20 pairs of black socks!

Saturday night involved me taking my friend Jen out for dinner, then drinks at her place and out to a place called the Metropolitan Grille for the evening. It is a restaurant that turns into a dance club after 10pm, and we had a great time.

Sunday I was back on track with my Marathon Training and we ran 20km!!! It was a gorgeous day and I felt like a million bucks after the run.

It's great to be home. Everyone in the Calgary office really missed me, and I could feel how happy they are to have me back. Yay!
