So, while most of you were probably partying your a$$es off on July 4th, I was home cleaning. Not only was I cleaning, but I wanted to clean. Not because I'm a neat freak like Monica Gellar, but because I had something exciting to clean. My boyfriend and I now have our house all to ourselves....and our two dogs. We once had 4 people living there. Let me tell you how small our house felt. It felt like I lived in my old just-out-of-college-on-my-own apartment, which was also a studio. Cramped, no storage, barely legal to be a residence. But I digress.... I had such a great day just setting up our guest room. Putting the furniture where I thought it looked best and not worrying about what I might step on while I was in the room. After some fresh paint and a good steam-cleaning, it was like a guy never lived there! Now the bathroom was another story. I wouldn't even go in there without some industrial rubber gloves. But that too is now acceptable, and even "cute" with it's new shower curtain, clean towels, and fresh scented candles! We are now equiped to entertain over night guests, but let me be clear. We have a max stay for any "guests" of 3 nights, after that, you're on your own! | Only registered users can write comments. Please login or register. |

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)

|  | What is up FoCo?
I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!
