Sunken Treasure
Rest Day from running meant a visit to the apartment’s gym today. It’s pretty small, but it was completely empty, which is nice. This was my first visit so I wasn’t sure what to expect.

Plus they would give us one pound of free coffee a week! To this day I am not a regular coffee drinker, but I…

Well, I confirmed it with Facebook, so it must be true! Tonight we watched our wedding video. It was very nice to be able to watch it since it…

Back to work
I left my old job 2 weeks ago and in that time I’ve packed up all my stuff in Southern California and drove all the way across the US to Maryland. It still feels like a vacation, but today I’m going back to work. I start my new reporting job and I will keep you all posted with my stories…
