Don't Fret! I'm Back!

I am very sorry for my long leave of absence! Its been a rather busy 2 and half months!! You don't believe me do you? Well let me fill you in: I moved, which is always such a joy; I started an internship (i will expand!); I had appendicitis; I've had some weekend get-a-way trips many weekends in row. 


Yes, my appendicitis resulted in surgery. No fun, but all is well. Moving is always just full of joy- too much cleaning and not nearly enough of my deposite back. 


Before I delve into my internship, let me update you on Justin's NW Cup!


I didn't blog about the last 2 races because I was at neither. One race was July 10- my Birthday. Justin did not place at this race unfortunatly. And the last race was August 7, I was not there because I was recovering from my surgery! But Justin placed 3rd there and 2nd overall in the NW CUP!! Congrats to Justin!!


Now for my internship! I got a great social media internship a local start up company Pirq! Its great! I love every minute of it! Pirq is a 100% smarthphone app bringing relevant, local deals in real-time! Its 100% paperless and time sensitive.  
Pirq is the antidote to the maze and craze of dialy deals. Ever feel overwhelmed by all those random deals that clog your inbox such at 38% off your meal at some random restaurant, or buy 3 get 1 free organic windsurfing? Its gets annoying right? So Pirq only gives you deals when you open the app, and you see the deals that are closest to you by using the map function. Or you choose from the list of cities and see the deals, when and where they are! Very cool!
