Adventures of a well-rounded geek
Roses Yesterday was admin appreciation day, so how did I appreciate myself? I left work early as a treat and sat outside in my backyard and read. (And pulled some weeds, but I enjoyed that too.) It was absolutely lovely and peaceful and relaxing and I must do it more often. Succulent planter My team…
Josh and Brittany went to Denver Milk Market with me and Elisabeth yesterday since we all had the day off. Elisabeth and I had been there for one of our comic meetups recently but we hadn't been able to grab food at the time so we were both excited to go again. We all ended…
Gene and I went to Roxborough State Park this morning. Now that we have a state park pass I figured it was high time we went hiking there. We did a three mile hike because I wasn't interested in doing anything longer and Gene was a sport and went along with me. The park is…
My morning started with eating breakfast outside and then pulling weeds while Pippin wandered the yard. I loved it. I say this all the time but being outside really improves a person’s mood. There’s still more work to do with the yard but just having plants around makes it instantly look nicer. I’ve started letting…
Elisabeth and I went to Disney on Ice today. The first time either of us had been to one and it was super fun. There were some truly amazing ice skaters - they did some awesome tricks and moves. As someone who has been ice skating once in her life, I was genuinely impressed with…

This meant that students made and served us lunch and it was awesome. Not only did I not have to do anything (I normally…
Today my coworker and I walked down to the Capital to meet Gene and his coworkers for lunch. Every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday during the summer food trucks gather by the Capitol. So we met up and had lunch! I got some hamburger sliders from 5280 Burger and Gene got some pizza. It was extremely…
I had lunch with Gene today. The microwave at his work is broken so I figured we should have lunch together. We ate at Moe's BBQ and it was good. We walked from Gene's office to the restaurant and it made me think of spring, it was that lovely outside. We came across some cute…
Yesterday I went to the doctor and the dentist for my annual and semi-annual exams. To celebrate that I seem to be in good shape I then had lunch with Gene. Yay. We ate at City Bakery Cafe, a cafe behind Gene's building. Neither of us had been there before but Gene's coworkers had and…
Today I had lunch with Gene! We went to a taco place near his work called Moontower Tacos. It is a local restaurant that specializes in unique tacos. Gene had been there once before and upon hearing about it, I wanted to give it a try. I had a breakfast taco and an avocado taco.…
