Well, we bid a fond farewell to Mr. Derek Rieckens yesterday. He is moving back to Eau Claire for the summer, and then off to Columbus and the seminary. I wish him good luck!

The BBQ at Boeser and Mel's was a blast. I had lost of fun listening to Boeser and Mike make fun of Brad. The brats, chips, beer, and cookies were great as well. Great job burning the brats Boeser!

Tonight I am going to Saffron to wish Mitch a great summer in Baltimore and good luck starting his PhD program at Georgia Tech. Thursday I do the same with Mitch (yup, he is so special he gets two parties) and Amy, who is off to Cornell for her PhD program. I will apparently be the last one to leave Fargo....so I don't know who will have a party for me (probably Matt, celebrating his freedom).

I have to get back to work now. Until my meeting this afternoon there really isn't much to do around here. Hopefully that will change.
