WOW! I would love to go there! It is crazy to think that REALLY happened and, like you said, still happens today. It saddens me horribly. They do have a holocaust memorial in Boston- but to be in Germany where it all went down is unimaginable. I'm jealous.
Keep blogging!!

ha ha! This is so funny... and so true. I was at Cheesecake on V-Day (waiting for my to-go order) and overheard a grumpy man say, "living here is like living in New York anymore." SERIOUS!? It's Valentines Day AND we're at the Cheesecake Factory. It's most likely gonna be busy.

Love this Jess!
I'd also love to read your thoughts on what it's like for your body to transform into a triathlete

I totally agree with Jami, though I think you should run at least one marathon in your lifetime. It is pretty awesome. That's all. Love you! Oh, and maybe come and have sleepovers more often. I think that is what Curtis would say as well!

I'd give you my resolution list, but they'...

2010-01-04T14:40:55.230-08:00

I'd give you my resolution list, but they're all pretty irrelevant to you SO, I'll just say that I think you're perfect the way you are! xoxo

I'm with Jame Jess. It made me sad too. If anyone knows Jess, they know that she is about the very best, most loyal friend anyone could ever have! And that friendship has not always been recipricated. In fact, not often at all. Our family would be not nearly as much fun or exciting or loving without you. I love you so much and I'm so grateful you are my daughter! Thank you for always being so gracious and generous with all you have! Love you. Come and hang out more and I will cook next time.

I'm so sorry, Jess. Being lonely is a sad and depressing thing. This post broke my heart. I don't know what to say except I'll be better at doing my part to make sure you're not as lonely. Love you so much and want more than anything for you to be happy.
*It was super fun to be with you last night- and the night before :)

You should write more.

You're so great Jess! And you're exactly right- we will get through this together. Love you so much!
...BTW- I love your blog. I love reading your thoughts and feelings. You express it so well.

Wow Jess! I never thought I would see this day as well. He has been sick most of our married life. It has been a joy to watch and hear about his daily training adventures. And you...I remember a time when you went running with me and you were not happy! Or the time it took you 4 hours to ski to the bottom of Marys,(see post on my blog called Memorites) Now you LOVE to snowboard, run, bike, hike, whatever. I am so proud of you and dad, and the whole family actually. I love seeing how everyone is fulfilling dreams! Love you my stubborn sunshine girl!

2009-09-02T12:35:28.595-07:00

As the guy who is being written about, I must say in return that my daughter Jessica, my ray of sunshine in everyday, is an inspiration to me.. She is awesome and I am so proud of her.

Jess is doing a TRI. Two years ago I would have thought NO WAY! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is so crazy. You are great for sharing your experience because there are undoubtedly several people out there who have no idea they may have this. I am definitely going to pay more attention when I get a "rash". Good luck. Maybe they should name this new strand Herpes Type Jess. :) You should get something out of this situation.

I can't believe it's been three years!
