Day 177: March 29, 2011

Our kitchen table: It used to be dark brown.
In the process of repairing the holes in the kitchen floor, Chris and Nick had to saw through the concrete to even the edges, consequently creating a large plume of dust that is now covering our entire house.
Looking forward to dusting!

Day 176: March 28, 2011

And the work begins!
After the plumber left 3 large holes in our kitchen floor while repairing the leaks
Chris and Nick began the long task of putting our kitchen back together.
But only after they made it worse first.

Day 175: March 27, 2011

My big brother Nick is in town!
Our kitchen should probably be labeled a disaster are at this point
so my big brother Nick flew out to "help" us out.

Day 174: March 26, 2011

And I wonder why I have problems sleeping.
Poor Misfit, I'm sleeping on her head!
And yes, Mike is that creepy for taking pictures of me while I'm sleeping.

Day 173: March 25, 2011

Date night!
We ventured out to OKC to eat dinner at Castle Falls.
Apparently this restaurant is in an actual castle on the edge of the city
where lots of people go to get engaged and married and stuff.
Decent food.

Day 172: March 24, 2011

Pipe leak.
So apparently crazy Chris was right and there was a leak under the house.
No wait, 2 leaks. I mean 3 leaks. Well, we're still waiting to see if there are more leaks.
And this is what our kitchen looks like.

Day 171: March 23, 2011

Midterm paper done!
After 3 days of no sleep, the 36-page monster was complete.

Day 170: March 22, 2011

Late night studying.
Price Hall has pretty swanky diggs too so Mike likes to study there.

Day 169: March 21, 2011

Another day lost.
More time spent catching up on homework. At least the library's super swanky.

Day 168: March 20, 2011

Midterm papers and homework don't go away just because you go on vacation.
We sacrificed 9 hours of our lives to catch up on homework. Ugh.

Day 167: March 19, 2011

Laundry day.
Apparently this is the excitement that awaits after a week-long road trip.

Day 166: March 18, 2011

End of the road trip. Almost.
9 a.m. ready to hit the road for a 14-hour drive.
Minus one hubcap and covered in mud.
This should have been a sign.

Day 165: March 17, 2011

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Celebrating with the family in Mason, OH.

Day 164: March 16, 2011

Girard, PA.
The woods behind my grandmother's farm.
It had been snowing and raining for days, this was the first day the sun came out.

Day 163: March 15, 2011

Another Pepsi machine?!
Apparently Pepsi owns Erie, PA.
The worst one we saw was outside somebody's house.

Day 162: March 14, 2011

"Cindy's Friendly Tavern"
Yup, been there done that.
Loveland, OH.

Day 161: March 13, 2011

Doing the usual.
Bar hopping and exploring Cincinnati. Flight time.

Day 160: March 12, 2011

Milford, OH.
Bonfire night at Aunt Patty's. Almost all the aunts, uncles, and cousins were there.
So much fun!

Day 159: March 11, 2011

Somewhere in Missour-a.
Ol' Route 66. The beginning of one very long road trip.

Day 158: March 10, 2011

Bolero, OKC, OK.
Although our intent was to use our groupon for In the Raw in OKC,
we ended up having tapas at Bolero.
Delicious!

Day 157: March 9, 2011

Kaylee art!
What a great surprise in the mail to find a one of a kind, original Kaylee!
Gotta love that kid art :)

Day 156: March 8, 2011

Time to explode.
Hyped from watching a film on Banksy,
I saw a little local street art in the parking garage at school.

Day 155: March 7, 2011

Crouching tiger, hidden kitten.
Hiding behind a laundry hamper,
kitten claws and kitten paws attack the unsuspecting.

Day 154: March 6, 2011

Waiting.
So this is the line we waited in to eat at an all-you-can-eat breakfast at the airport in Norman.
And no, we were not flying anywhere, we went there specifically for the food.

Day 153: March 5, 2011

Passed out.
After a long day supporting his wife at Sooner Conference,
Mike had a much shorter evening drinking at Blu.
Followed by passing out on the bed at 8:30 p.m.

Day 152: March 4, 2011

Tiger blood, er, beer.
Mike was on a good Charlie Sheen kick and decided to chase his Four Locos with Tiger beer. Ew.

Day 151: March 3, 2011

Good day Sunshine!
Got Cindy's bike fixed and the weather outside is perfect for a bike ride!
(Except the ridiculous wind, ugh.)

Day 150: March 2, 2011

New diet.
After coming to the realization we will never be able to buy dairy-free cupcakes,
Cindy broke down and baked a cake . . .
that kind of collapsed in the center.

Day 149: March 1, 2011

Like a blurry nightmare.
Within 12 hours of being evicted our 48-hour roommate had all her stuff packed and was all moved out.
Weird.

Day 148: February 28, 2011

Shocked.
After meeting up at a secret location and devising a plan to evict our new roommate of 24 hours,
we finally sat down and spoke with her.
It was awkward!
