Peace out Kinkos
So Today was the last day, it was kind of anticlimactic. I helped my last customer, hung up the apron and walked out. Tonight all the coworkers and I are getting together. Its odd, leaving my first real job. Kinko’s taught me a great many things, and as much as I am glad to leave, I am grateful for the opportunity that the company gave me. I saw people at their best, but often at there worst (so goes retail). It was all very educational.
Kinko’s has given me many wonderful memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life.

New story one the WifeSite
Check out the wifesite wifesite, just letting you know.
Packing it up
So Julie and I are well on our way to having the apt packed up. It has the rest of the family in a tizzy. Farmer is worried that she will have to find a new spot (or maybe even have to move more than 2 feet at some point) and Frankie is thinking that she is getting left here. Julie is okay with it all, she knows that she is coming along....
Well one thing is for sure. I suck at packing and hate it. I am definatly the weak link in this whole deal. I get one box into it and immediately have the undeniable urge to go drink a beer, or go to Sonic for a slush. The wife just keeps pluging along. It is a good thing I work this week or I would have no excuse for slacking.
Capitalism Rules!
So I have sold 5 invites to Gmail for a total of $80. Ain't capitalism grand!?!

Julie's Post about the Bolder Boulder (Imported from comments)!
OK. So I just had to throw in a bit about our run! Lee will be so proud that I AM POSTING on the BLOGGER!!!
Our run was so incredible. Everyone had really talked up the race like it was going to be super hard. We kept hearing about all the hills and the higher altitude, so I was really SCARED! I made Lee run it pretty slow and as everyone ran by panting and wheezing, I was glad. That wouldn't have been fun. So we just smiled and laughed the whole 6.2 miles! It was easy! Then the finish was just amazing. We both seemed to get this adrenaline rush and were just flying through the crowds of people to get into the CU stadium. Once we entered and saw all the people and heard all the cheering, I thought I would cry! I was so proud of us. Afterwards, we really had fun getting to go around and carb-load with all the free give-aways. We probably consumed more calories than we actually burned! There was ice cream, juice, smoothies, popsicles, bananas, beer, and my favorite...soy tortilla chips. They were so yummy!
So if you are thinking of joining us for the Race for the Cure...let me twist your arm with the thought of those free soy tortilla chips! It will be a guaranteed fun...and healthy time for all! :)

Yellow team Austin
So it looks like it is official, we will be starting a Yellow Team
in Austin....
What does this mean?
We will be walking and running in the Austin Race for the Cure to help raise money to help support breast cancer research. It should be a great event to raise money to support this effort.
If you would like to participate just let me know, and I will keep you abreast of the goings on of the Yellow Team Austin!!!!
The Bolder Boulder Bites the Dust
Well it is official, Julie and I ran our first 10k, and what a experience it was. 48,000 people, costumed runners, people standing in their lawns with water-hoses, belly dancers along the route, it was definitely odd, definitely fun! Our first Bolder Boulder was super fun, an experience that we will never forget. I think I have found a new hobby, its fun, cheap, and good for the ticker. Julie and I may not have run it fast, but we loved the whole experience and we are looking forward to doing it again in the future!
Upcoming plans for our new hobby include running the Austin Race for the Cure, by hopefully starting a branch of the Yellow Team in Austin. We are also looking forward to the Capital 10k in Austin! Whoop!
