I almost forgot! One of my best friends and roommates, Colin Blake, just got engaged to his very sweet and patient (just kidding Coleen) girlfriend Jennifer. I have to admit that I do feel a little responsible for their relationship….who knows if he would have ever asked her out if I hadn’t blackmailed him to give him the courage to do it in the first place! I have been friends with Colin since freshman year, and we have had many interesting experiences together - CS homework nights (i.e. margarita nights), the night we got my/our couch (i.e. my birthday), dave matthews concert (i.e. my birthday present from colin), soap operas after school, that trip to the bookstore….hee hee, the hunting(s) of the mouse - anyway, the list of memories goes on and on. I realize that no one really picks up on any of this except Colin and me, but I am writing it specifically to him to let him know how much he means to me and how proud I am of him. So congratulations Colin, and no matter how much I have picked on you in the past, I think Jennifer is a very lucky lady, especially since you cook so well ;-)
