Growing Pains are AWKWARD


Lately I feel as though I am going through an awkward phase lately.

First of all I am growing my hair out, no reason really just something different. I am not planning on growing it out super long, just to my chin. But anyways now I feel like a Hanson Brother. AWKWARD with weird hair. Maybe if I buy some cute headbands....

Lately, I have been having trouble about where/how to shop. For example Women's or Junior's? I am 26 years old and some stuff is way to old looking and some is way too young looking! I hope it is ok I still shop in the Junior's section. AWKWARD....


Also, Dan and I have come to the crazy realization that a lot of our friends are moving away.We do have a lot of friends still in CBUS, but it is a realization they may be leaving soon too! Now we have to meet new friends...as a couple...AWKWARD. The upside is that we live in a great new neighborhood and really do like Harrison's on Third (the bar) and the even let us watch the UNI game there. Maybe we will meet someone there...

I am trying ti make a blanket made out crocheted granny squares. I keep trying and I can't make it work. AWKWARD! I am still struggling with the darn granny squares, but I think I understand them now...I will keep you posted.

Hopefully the post isn't too awkward!

A Very McCurley Valentine's Day




Well, we have started to get the snow the rest of the Midwest has been complaining about this winter. However, Dan did get to enjoy a snow day today. But it was business as usual for me (Darn you corporate America).

We have really been getting into the show How I Met Your Mother on Netflix. I am also convinced that Dan and Marshall are very similar people. Hence the following quote: "I don't know why people are so cynical about Ewoks, the Rebellion would have failed without the Ewoks. "Also, I am told there is a lot of jokes about Columbus, OH. Can't wait to see what happens. The people on this show have "their" bar the hang out at, kind of like the cafe on Friends. Anyways when my friends from Chicago came to visit this year, they were talking about trying to find their own bar in Chicago. Now Dan and I are on the quest!!
On Friday, we went to Harrison's on Third. It had great $5.00 pizzas and is within walking distance of our house. So far so good...now we just need a group of zany friends...

We decided to celebrate Valentine's Day on Saturday and at home this year. Dan took me to JoAnn's Fabrics. I got a BUNCH of yarn, so now I can make a really neat blanket! I need to master the Granny Square first Wish me luck! We went to Whole Foods and picked out our meal and came home and enjoyed! We didn't get away from the crowds, as there was a wine tasting there, but we did enjoy or meal in the comfort of our home. I also got some flowers =0).



On Sunday, we got to go to a Columbus Blue Jackets game with our friends Mark and Sarah.It was my first NHL game and game ending in a shootout. It was a good game, even though the Jackets did not win and we did not make it on the "Kiss Cam". I cannot wait to go to more games!!
