So, we're watching Mee-shell Oh-bomb-a (as in "She da bomb!) talk at the Democratic National Convention. Christy shouts out enthusiastically "Go Obama!" and I subtly nod in approval. I know Christy is gung ho for Senor Obama, and I am leaning his way pretty heavily, but I feel like I'm betraying my Eastern Washington roots to not vote Republican.
Anyway, she's done so now back to the Seahawks only Monday Night Football game of the season, which is stupid they only got 1 and its in preseason! Well its already on Sportscenter and ESPN.com says they lost by 1 on a two point conversion. Well that sucks, but Hasselback didn't even suit up, so it doesn't really count. They just need their young receivers to play big this year, just like the Huskies and Prosser's very own Cody Bruns who should get playing time as a true freshman.
So now that the Olympics are over, we can finally watch the netflix movies we've had for over 2 weeks now. They're both chick flicks so I want to get 'em in the mail so I can get a film that is about the industry I work in: Michael Moore's Sicko. I kinda think he is a sicko, but I'm curious what the documentary has to say with my newfound industry knowledge. Once Christy finishes her work (for her former job at PLU, not even for her current job) we'll start one of them, so to get in the mood I'm gonna play a little Guitar Hero. I've been working on all the songs on easy to get my skills back.

Lazy Seattle Sunday
So, as for the title of this blog post, think SNL and The Office...you know what I'm talking about. Actually, we're not being too lazy: we're cleaning house...or apartment as we watch the final day of Olympics. Christy was looking forward to watching the team rhythmic gymnastics, which is currently on and let me say...WOW! I am so impressed on how coordinated they are to throw those hoops in the air and then kick them to someone. If you get a chance, watch it nbcolympicscom. They're pretty cute too!
So, yes we are cleaning house. We always have our thermostat off and just leave our windows open to ventilate the apartment, which lets in a ton of dust, especially by the windows. We cleaned up those messes and then started working on the den. Our goal was to transfer all our books, which were in the free liquor store boxes setup as temporary bookshelves, to our new IKEA bookshelves. We got that done and plan on putting some pictures on the walls and organizing the den a little more.
So we woke up this morning and saw some utility trucks in the street right outside our window. I went down to check it out as I went get the newspaper (which wasn't there because people keep stealing it!) and saw that there was a main water line leak. Water was literally leaking out of the road. I'm not sure how they first discovered the leak, but they were poking holes in the asphalt to let the water drain. Later, they brought in some heavier equipment to dig a bigger hole and they're still working on it, though I'm not sure what they're doing.
So I promised to blog about Friday and Saturday, so here's the abridged version: Friday after work I went to Capitol Hill with Sean, an intern at Regence who just finished his last day, and went to a great Sushi place called Chinoise with his fiance Ryli and a coworker named Brian. I had a Seattle roll and a spicy tuna roll with a glass of Chardonay for $14 on the happy hour menu. Once I got home, Christy and I drove back to Capitol Hill because we haven't really explored that area yet. We walked along the Lake Washington waterfront and then through residential streets and saw some amazing homes at ridiculous prices. We've been trying to go on walks more both for the exercise and to get to know Seattle better.
On Saturday, we walked to Pike Place Market, which we have both been to many times with our familes, but not since we moved here. We bought some BBQ spice rub from Market Spice (an Olsen favorite), got a blueberry scone from Three Sisters Bakery (a Field favorite), and then got some groceries at Whole Foods. We had salmon burger patties from WF with corn and lemon orzo...mmmm! Christy made a watermellon sorbet with lime creme for a party that night at the Osborne's in Tacoma. We went down there, not sure if it was just us they invited or a big party, and it ended up being a big family get-together. A lot of fun people, good food, swimming and kayaking in the Sound, and sunny skies...a perfect Saturday afternoon/night. Then I stayed up late to watch the US and Spain mens basketball teams battle for the gold, which was an hard fought game.
Before I go, just want to say welcome home from Norway to the Olsens, thanks to Judy and Bob for making us a part of their family. Love you all and looking forward to seeing you soon.

Watching the Redeem Team vs. Spain for the Gold!
12:00 AM So its been a busy couple of days, which intend to blog about...but I'm hooked on my this basketball game! I kinda expected and wanted the US to run away with it, but I'm glad its a close game and it is forcing the US to play their best, which I believe they have done most of this tournament. They didn't just expect to show up and win anymore but really are out to regain the title. Into the 2nd quarter now and the US is up by 12. More to come later.
12:15 AM I've enjoyed watching players from Spain that I've never heard of, like Ricky Rubio and Paul Gasol's larger brother Marc. They got an early lead on the US in the first quarter. The US is having some foul trouble, like Kobe and Lebron both getting 2 fouls in the first 5 minutes. Wow, Lebron just made a great move to the bucket in transition from a turnover. They've had quite a few of those with big, crowd-pleasing dunks.
12:16 AM The US is really relying on the 3 pointer a lot. They've hit 7 of 10 so far, when they average about 30% in this tournament. Its good to see them play more as a team. In the NBA, too often its a one on one game, or some guy will just throw up a three for no reason. I like the team game more...constant movement, pick and rolls, great assists, movement without the ball, fighting for rebounds and putbacks...that's my game and thats the way most international teams play ball and thats exactly how the US lost 4 years ago (playing great individuals against great teams)...and thats how they are winning (great individuals playing as a team).
12:20 AM Halftime and the US is up by only 8, their smallest lead at half in the tourney. The are shooting about 85%, which is great, but giving up way too many points. The have been winning with a stifling defense that creates turnovers or forces bad shots, but not in the first half of this game. Too many stupid of petty fouls and second shots have kept Spain in the game.
1:00 AM End of third quarter and I'm dissapointed in the US. They aren't playing poorly, but they still have a 9 point lead. I hope they step it up for this final quarter. Spain's zone defense has been stiffling the US, who settles for three pointers too often. Funny side note, right before the commercial break they played a tune they usually play for NBA songs instead of the olympic fanfare tune. Spain is really playing a great game. One of their guys has had some great floaters and they are playing great team defense.
1:01 AM Case in point: Kobe throws up an pointless 3 and misses. Then on D, he doesn't cover on a pick and roll and Pau Gasol throws down an alley oop. Then Melo throws up another stupid 3, so Spain comes down and nails a three: 2 point game. Come on guys...
1:07 AM They're playing better. Kobe had 3 great plays on offense, but just had a lazy defensive play and Fernandez got past him and someone had to foul him as he threw down a sick dunk! 8 point game with 4:30 left.
1:13 AM Kobe just knocked down a 3 and got fouled with 3:10 left! A huge shot. Also, it fouled Rudy Fernandez out of the game...which is huge.
1:15 AM Kobe throws up another stupid, stupid three pointer. So frustrating. It lead to a Spain bucket and then a Spain 3 pointer to pull it within 4. Wade hit a 3 and pushed it to 7. Too much reliance on 3 pointers and poor defense.
1:17 AM The Spanish point gaurd is only 17! He is playing pretty clutch. 8 point game with 1 minute left. Some big defensive rebounds for US the last 2 possessions. Looks like fouls from here on out.
1:22 AM Looks like the US is gonna win. 26 seconds left. Its really cool seeing all these NBA stars play together and be friends. Spain just got an unsportsmanlike foul and a Technical.
1:25 AM The USA wins! Hugs everywhere and the redeem team has achieved their goal. Chants of USA...its good to be on top of the world again! Huge props to Spain who gave them the biggest challenge and the US responded. They're jumping and cheering like a bunch of kids. Its good to see genuine joy and pride for their team and country. Coach K smiled! He doesn't do that much. I'd love to meet that guy. Such a class act. Keep an eye out for Marc Gasol, Pau's little bigger brother whose nickname is "The Tank". "Marc the tank, marc the tank...!" Ok, its late but totally worth watching. Night loyal blog readers (aka, mom).

Researching Cars
So I have a little free time at work today and started looking into cars. I have a nice car, a 2002 Subaru Legacy GT, and have no complaints and no plans to buy a car for another 2-3 years. BUT, it is fun to see what is available. I want a car that gets around 30 miles per gallon (both for paying for less gas and for being nicer to this world of ours), not a hybrid because those are expensive and the batteries are apparently bad for the environment), and one that has a good record of quality/reliability. Other features would be fun, but I can live without them.
What got me thinking about this was a Seattle Times article called "Unconvential Economy Cars." So the first one I found was the Nissan Versa, which was ok, but had a bad reliability rating on US News and World Report (they probably aren't the best place to get a car review, but its what I found and I like the format). I saw that the highest rated car was the Honda Civic and close behind it was the Honda Fit, which I remember liking when I looked into it a few weeks ago. CNET didn't like it because it didn't have a lot of fun features, like nice car stereo or bluetooth, but those things are not the most important to me (plus you can upgrade). Car and Driver says, "Not only does the Fit deliver what you'd expect -- high mpg numbers and low ownership costs -- but it also delivers something you might not: high-quality interior appointments, a high level of usefulness, and a high fun-to-drive index." Honestly, I don't think Christy would like the shape/look of it. Well, I'm in no position to go buy a car nor do I need to fortunately, just fun to look.

What a day!
So its almost 1:00 AM and I am exhausted. I was up at 6:15 to go play golf, which went ok. It was a 9 hole 3 par course in Interbay and I scored a 52, which isn't very good, but I had a sweet shot on the third hole, which made my day. I hit a 30-ish foot pitching shot into the green and it rolled into the hole! I was pretty surprised it went it.
Once I got to work, I rewarded myself with a healthy veggie omelet at work. I stayed pretty busy all day, which isn't always the case. I went to lunch with Sean, an intern whose last day is tomorrow, for the last time. He's not really an intern as he has a lot of experience and skills and did a great job researching wiki options for our department that (hopefully) will be implemented soon. Christy and I went to dinner with Sean and his fiance Rlyi at a bar in Capital Hill called Deluxe. The food was ok, but it was a fun time. We went straight to Target to get more invitations for our Prosser wedding reception in 2 weeks. Then we came home and finished put the invitations all together with address labels and stamps. We got most of them all done so we can send them tomorrow, which is a huge accomplishment!
Well, after watching the US men's beach volleyball team kick butt and seeing the mens and womens relay teams BOTH drop the batons, I am ready to hit the sack. I think the most rediculous sport in the Olympics is speed walking. It was on last night and just looked so weird. Walking in a long oval for hours and hours must be pretty boring. The way they twist their bodies just looks unnatural.
PROGRAMMING NOTE: Watch the US vs. Argentina basketball game at 7:15 AM PST on Friday (a few hours away). It could be a great game and I am torn on who to root for.
One more note...I'm playing with Goolge Analytics to see who is reading this, so if you read this blog, please write a simple comment to let me know who you are. Thanks!

Mmmm..so tasty
So I was in charge of deciding what we cook for dinner to tonight and I had no idea until I started walking home after work. We got some great vegetables (tomatoes, yellow zucinni, walla walla onion, and summer squash, like a pickle but not pickeled) from my parents this weekend and we didn't have many groceries at home, but I knew we had spaghetti and marina sauce. I stopped by Whole Foods on my way home and got 2 Italian pork sausage and 2 Italian chicken sausage, as well as some mushrooms. Once I got home and showered from working out, I cut up all the veggies and sauteed them with some dried basil (thanks dad) and some red pepper seasoning. Christy cooked the pasta and sausage, which we sliced into nice bite size pieces. All that was left was combining it all in our odd-shaped Rachel Ray pan and, of course, eating it (my favorite part). It turned out delicious!!! We enjoyed it with a nice bottle of McKinley Springs Cabernet Sauvignon (again, thanks dad). I would include pictures, but we can't find the USB cable for the camera.
We're substituting the Olympics tonight with the Food Network. Battle Mango in Iron Stadium!!! I hope to be going to bed earlier tonight because I'm getting up early tomorrow to play 9 hole at Interbay, which is a 3 par course nearby, with some guys from work. We went last month and I'm looking forward to honing my skills. I just hope the sky dumps all its rain tonight so we won't have to play in the rain tomorrow.
Update on my foot (if you care): It felt great all day, until I ran on the treadmill for 10 minutes and biked for awhile. Now my foot is a pain in the...well, foot I guess. I suppose running isn't good for it. Bummer.

Now I see why Seattle can be so depressing...
So there is a summer rain storm in Seattle today, which is weird because August is supposed to be the best month in terms of nice weather of the whole year. I don't mind the rain at all, well we'll see once I have to walk to and from work in it. Especially in the heat of summer, the rain is a nice change and clears out all the smog. But as I sit in my cube, I've noticed that when it is cloudy and rainy everything is just darker and depressing. At lunch it was sunny and warm, and then just hours later it got all dark and rainy again. That is one thing I miss about Eastern Washington: the weather didn't fluccuate as much in 1 day. I thought I would be used to that by now. I specifically remember being surprised at how many weather changes could occur in one day as I sat in class at PLU.

Olympics are exhausting to watch
So I've decided that in a normal week, I get progressively more tired throughout the week so that by Friday morning, I need extra coffee to stay awake. Well today felt like a Friday because I have been staying up late every night for the past week and a half. As much as I love seeing Micheal Phelps win gold medals and gymnast judges rob the US, I cannot wait to get some more sleep starting next week. Well, only a few nights left to go. If I was really hard core, I would have woken up early this morning to watch an epic battle between Argentina and Brazil on the futbal pitch (which Argentina won 3-nil, which made me happy). Looking forward to the final on Saturday against Nigeria. Argentina won the gold 4 years ago, but lost to Nigeria 8 years ago in Atlanta. I didn't realize that Nigeria was so good.
I worked out after work in the gym in my building, which I have started to do a few days a week over the past month, but I just didn't have much energy, which was no fun. Plus, my left foot (the outside on the arch) has been hurting me every step I take.
Well, back to the Olympics.

Watching Olympics
Another quiet night at the Field's apartment in South Lake Union. We got an incredible Cherry Bomb Pie from Zeeks Pizza with we downed with some Moose Drool as we watched the Olympic events of Ping Pong, Triathalon, and Volleyball (as Christy said, "How ironic is it where triathlon and ping pong are part of the same event.") Currently we're watching young man dangling from rings...my favorite! Actually, I'm a big fan of doubles badminton. Those guys have such a fast reflexes and really smack the little birdie.
I stole the Wii from my parents becasue as of today they are offically empty nesters and wouldn't be Wii-ing. I set it up here tonight and played Guitar Hero with Kyle in Puyallup over the Internet, which was pretty sweet. I'm a little out of shape on the guitar and need to practice so I can impress everyone.
We just started working on invitations for our wedding reception in Prosser in 3 weeks, so I've gotta get back to that. Adios!

At work...
Well, for my second official blog, I am on a conference call and getting bored, so I thought I'd inform the world that of that.
I was excited to see that I already had 2 comments on my first blog! That makes me feel special. Thanks for visiting me blog and stay tuned for fun layout changes as I explore each and every gadget available (notice the ESPN one at the bottom of the page).
Well, just so you know, my blogging style is shorter, more frequent blogs rather than longer, drawn out blogs that take more than 1 minute to read. I have ADD with reading and get easily distracted, so I like short articles. What do you guys prefer?
So, I brought my sunglasses today and it ended up being a rainy dreary Seattle day, which is not normal for summer. We might get some thunder storms later today, which would be pretty exciting! Just wish I had brought my raincoat and umbrella and left the sunglasses at home.
Thats all for now!

My first blog!
So this is my first blog and my first official blog post. I'm not really sure what my blog is going to be about, but I'm hoping to keep my family and friends updated on what I'm up to, but for all of you who don't know me, allow me to introduce myself:
My name is Carl Field and I live in Seattle, WA with my wife Christy. We just graduated from PLU in Tacoma, WA and have recently started new jobs. Topics that interest me are technology, sports, environmental sustainability, cooking, healthcare...and that's about it.
So, stay tunned to hear more about my exciting life...actually, I can't promise that, but it will be about real life at least.
