Haven’t posted in a while, so I’m going to do a well-rounded life update! Most recently, Ryann and I bought some stuff to install a stereo in my mom’s greenhouse for her birthday. I just put it up the other night, and I’m actually really happy with how it sounds. I used this amp that I got at work, and its really cool because it’s basically a car stereo that can plug into a regular 120V outlet. So, that stereo plus these speakers made for a pretty rockin greenhouse.

The weather has been getting warmer and so the bikes come out more and I’m so excited. I’ve already been on a couple little bike rides around Dayton and I’m more pumped than ever to go riding more this summer. The picture above is my main dude Matt D riding across a bridge on riverside in Dayton.

Since we’re on the topic of the awesome weather, Ryann and I went up to her home town over Easter weekend and had an awesome day taking her little brother’s dog out for a walk. It felt so good to get up for a couple hours and walk around the town and stop through some parks. Very relaxing. The next day I was able to finish the 2nd book of the Walking Dead, and it’s awesome! As cliche as it is to say, I really think I’m enjoying the book more than the show. I will never stop watching the show, but it needs to pick up on the action for next season!

When we got home from that, I got 4 free tickets to the Dragon’s game so I took Ryann and my parents as a present to my mom for missing her birthday. It was COLD that night though. But the beers at Trolley Stop afterwards made up for that! haha. I also bought Ryann and I some Threadless goodies. My shirt is pictured above and here is the one I got for Ryann. 

Finally, I’m very excited to announce that Atomic Interactive won the “App it Out” contest and their web app “Slickplan” is taking them to Las Vegas for the next level in the competition, April 29th - May 2nd. As luck would have it, Ryann has been invited to go, and I was also invited to tag along. I just have to take care of my own plane tickets. Thanks to Ryann’s Southwest points - I only had to pay $10 for my tickets! So we will be spending our 2-year anniversary in Las Vegas!

Oh, and did I mention that I’m leaving for a 3-day trip to Boston tomorrow too? Needless to say these next couple weeks are about to be cray. And this year will definitely be one for the record books.
