Today I got back on track biking and successfully completed 21 miles!
It's really great riding out here and I'm loving my new bike.
I hope that I can start adding mileage on quickly and make it to 50 by the end of next month.
Only advice I have for myself from here on out....
Don't forget to raise the seat after your mother borrows your bike...your legs and butt will want to die.
Pray pray pray for job opportunities!!
Corbin by the end of the week will have had three interviews, so hopefully something will come from that.
It's all very exciting.
The pup is great and 4th of July weekend is coming up!
I miss my Knoxvillian friends, though :(
PS Julie if you read this, PLEASE come to nashville this weekend with Jeff!!!
Miss you guys like CRAZY.

Kya
So.... Kya is pretty much one of the best things that has ever happened to me.
Corbin and I got Kya this past Monday in DuQuoin, IL.
On the way there, we quickly learned that this city was in no sorts a bursting metropolis, but instead, as stated by Corbin, "the place where creativity goes to die." This was only said because on the way there we crossed a muddy river called Big Muddy River.
After driving through the countryside, we found the breeder's house and were able to meet our baby.
Kya is the best.
She slept the entire 4 hour drive home without making a peep and by the end of a long day she could already recognize who her owners were.
She is already crate trained and will hopefully soon realize the need to go to the bathroom outside...
I am so excited about this puppy.
I await the day that we can teach her how to do cool tricks and fetch the frisbee at the park.
Until then, I will gladly enjoy the moments of her playing with my cat, doing accidental somersaults while she tries to scratch her belly, and waking herself up from barking in her sleep.
She really is like a baby.
I am quickly learning patience and enduring occasional frustration, but it'll improve.
Then I will finally be able to sleep past 7 am and hang out with friends later than 9 pm!

(And.... about the pic.... this was a random stop on the way home. Largest statue of Superman. Thank you Illinois.)
