i (no, we) need an addition to the carlos sainz luis miguel universe.

Pretty please!!!! love you!!!!!

kind of love – cs55

genre: flufffff. a spin-off (of sorts? it’s not a sequel per se) to this

auds here… love u guys and listening to luis miguel gets me in a Mood. late req i’m sorry i’m sooo busy lately… xxxxx hope u like it! :)

“You never teach me anything in Spanish,” you lament. “It’s always hola or te amo.”

“Are you saying you have no need for te amo?” Carlos asks, rifling through the Madrid keychain rack to look for your name, which he gives up on after a few moments. He spots your narrowed eyes and accused face and laughs, backing off. “Kidding. I didn’t know you were interested in learning it, mi vida.” He turns to search for more novelty souvenirs.

“Of course I am,” you respond, leaning closer and pressing your chin onto his shoulder. It requires a generous tiptoe allowance, but you brave it and waddle around behind him. “It’s your language, is all—I find it beautiful. And you know all your English already!”

“Not all,” he corrects, lifting up a beer bottle shaped magnet. “Do you think Max will like this?”

“Oh, obviously.” You pause, and then laugh at a memory that enters your mind. “Yeah, remember in Canada when you totally botched your order at that brunch place?”

He groans amusedly. “Don’t tease me.”

“It’s cute,” you remind him firmly, pressing a quick kiss to his jaw before disengaging from the hug to peruse the shelves yourself. There are a few cute ones, though most of them are a bit too tacky for your taste.

One bunch of them, lying on a discarded sale pile (seeing as though it’s well past February), is Valentine’s Day themed. They all have a variety of names printed on the metal, with red hearts all around them. You rifle through the Miguels, Annas, and Harrys before you luck out and find it collecting dust on the bottom of the basket.

“I found one!” You cry out, jingling the metal. 

“Let’s see it,” Carlos says, but he’s elsewhere in the tiny store. You peer behind a shelf to find him rummaging through a half-off CD bin. Strange behavior, considering zero people ever use CDs for music nowadays, but you approach him anyway.

He turns briefly. “Can I see your purchase?”

“Not yet,” you say proudly. “It’s a surprise. What are you doing going through that?”

“Well, I figured since you want to learn Spanish, I’ll be your teacher. Or he will be.” He digs out a dusty CD and you scrunch your nose as you dust off the cover, revealing a Spanish man posing for the camera behind it. Carlos flicks at the printed image, clicking his tongue. “Top hits, Luis Miguel.”

“Okaaay.” You turn it over, read over the list of songs. “I was leaning more towards Shakira being my teacher.”

“Mi vida, you know I’m her biggest fan,” he begins, taking the CD from you and walking you both to the counter, “but this is the good stuff. Trust me, mi amor.”

You both pay for your tiny purchases and enter Carlos’ Golf, where he wastes no time inserting the disc into the player and clicking the console buttons to get the audio just right. You’re content to watch, smiling softly at his excitement which is no doubt more than enough for the both of you. “I assume we’re taking the long way to your house,” you tease, even if you secretly love long car rides with him.

He starts the car and laughs. “For Luis, yes.” He pauses, clears his throat. “And for you, too, princesa.”

“Nice save, baby.” You link hands, and the music starts to flow softly through the car.

And so does the singing. Where Carlos got his golden voice from, you don’t know—he didn’t sing along much to the songs you both love—but something in these songs brings it out, and it causes your heart to swell with fondness. Sure enough, the song’s in full Spanish, with the romantic guitar to match as well.

“What’s this one called?” You ask aloud, gazing at the scapes of Madrid passing you by.

He pauses his passionate belting to answer you. “Sabor a Mi,” he says. “It means… it’s a very nice love song.”

“On the subject of love and Spaniards,” you say, momentarily unlocking your hands; his moves to rest idly over your thigh. You pick out the keychain from your bag and hang it on his rearview mirror. “Like it?”

His eyes flit to them and back to the road quickly, to keep you out of potential danger. He smiles.

“I love it, amor. I only wish it read your name.” He squeezes your thigh, searches for your hand, and lifts it to his lips. While the back of your hand’s pressed to them, he begins singing again and you giggle at the ticklish sensation of it.

The song fades out promptly, and into the next one—still Spanish, still romantic, still Luis Miguel. Carlos shifts in his seat with visible excitement, mumbling somethings in Spanish out of excitement. “One of my favorites, amor! Seriously!” He hums to the lyrics, half-distracted by the road, but eventually settles into singing.

“Si antes de amar… debe tenerse fe,” he pipes, pressing his and your interlocked hands to his chest out of sheer passion. “You must learn this one. It’s called Mucho Corazon. It reminds me very much of you, you know?”

He turns onto a quiet cobblestone road, and uses it as an opportunity to gauge the love of his life’s reaction to Luis Miguel (an important moment, he supposes, in everyone’s lifetime.) And he sees you reading over the booklet of the CD, mouthing along the lyrics as the song goes. He slows his pace, watches the greenery complement how beautiful you look, just here beside him.

Be it in Spanish or English, with rhyme or without, accompanied by idyllic instruments or not, Carlos often finds himself stumped with the love he has for you. Because, simply because really, he hasn’t felt this way and so strongly for anyone else before. To him, you’re everything—you’re the song in the car, the greenery outside, the spring that tints all of Spain. You’re all the nicknames, all the small kind gestures, all of it.

You could disappear right now and he’d park the car and wait, just for you to come back. He knows it’s impossible but he’d do it, he really would. He wants, needs, loves you, all the time. All the time. 

It’s strange and beautiful and he realizes now that the best way he can really put it is by singing you a Luis Miguel song. He takes one hand off the wheel to flick at the keychain, and it shines in the sunlight. He smiles to himself and continues singing. He’s sure he dreamt of this once.

—

Life takes Carlos on a path far away from Madrid. It loops him around the world and averts him away from that shabby tourist souvenir shop. He takes money out of his generous paycheck, though, to make sure it never goes bankrupt. Writes checks under an alias because if the tabloids found out, they’d wonder why, and he’d rather not explain.

Life takes you on a path far away from Carlos. It loops you into cities he hasn’t been and won’t plan to visit and averts you from Spain, from their house in the hills. You write emails to his sister sometimes if she writes first, though, to avoid being a stranger. Lie on the subject heading—Doing great in NYC/HK/Seoul/Bali—because if she knew how you really were doing, she’d ask why, and you’d rather not explain.

Life is funny, though. Because even when the connection is gone, nearly everything forgotten, it’s always sending you little love letters.

For some it’s a keychain on the rear view mirror of a brand new Ferrari. For others it’s a Luis Miguel song, nailed perfectly on the karaoke no matter the city.

Celebrating the upcoming open of their 19-acre, Party Acres resort, Backwoods Brewing releases Party Acres Hazy IPA.

Press Release

Carson, WA (March 1st, 2023) - Backwoods Brewing releases Party Acres Hazy IPA ahead of opening their 19-acre resort property Party Acres, a playground for lovers of the Gorge.

“We bought the property in 2020,” says owner and CEO Steve Waters, “and have been drawing multiple designs in the sandbox ever since.” They finally landed on a site plan, with Phase 1 being cabins hidden away in the woods in Carson, Washington. The cabins will open this spring, and Phase 2 of Party Acres will be bringing Backwoods’ existing pub and brewery operations on site as well.

Alongside these plans, Backwoods has other fun ideas in the works with an estimated time frame to be decided, including a disc golf course, zip line and potentially an amphitheater for live entertainment. 

“We’ve got plans in motion, and are leaving space to dream up exciting ideas for the property and our cozy cabins.  With all the activities in the area we are excited to give people more reasons to love coming to play and stay in the Columbia River Gorge.” says owner Debbie Waters. 

Party Acres, the beer, is a Hazy IPA made with lush, tropical hops, and is light enough to be enjoyed on any outdoor adventure. Backwoods has been playing with the recipe on draft for over a year, and is finally ready to take it to prime time in 12 ounce cans. It will take their hazy slot, previously occupied by Hazy in the Gorge. 

“When it came time to name the beer, we thought about it for 5 seconds before thinking, ‘Why don’t we name it after the property?’” said Tom Waters, COO and owner of Backwoods, “Party Acres has been a dream of my dad’s (fellow owner Jim Waters) since before I was born.”

“When I was a kid, my buddies and I always wanted a place we could go to get away.” says Jim. The fabled earthly paradise would be called Party Acres. “It’s pretty exciting to be making that dream a reality. But what we’re doing here is going to be a little bit more classy than what me and my buddies had in mind back then.” Born from the vision of a collective place for family and friends to celebrate the good times, Party Acres will be a resort with something for everyone.  

“And in the spirit of Backwoods, we’re aiming for the blend we always try to strike of woodsy and adventurous, while also laid-back and comfortable,” says Steve Waters. “We want to be the place you think of when you want to get away.”

Look for the Party Acres beer in stores and on tap at the Backwoods pubs right now - and plan to book a night or two at the Party Acres cabins beginning in May 2023. 

About Backwoods Brewing Company - Backwoods Brewing is located in the heart of the Columbia Gorge, in the small town of Carson, WA. It was founded by the Waters family in 2012, as a single-barrel brewpub. They now operate on a 20-barrel system in their Stevenson production facility, kegging, canning and bottling beer for the WA, OR, and ID markets. They have also operated a thriving satellite pub in Portland’s Pearl District since July of 2018.Their focus is on balanced beers and comfortable pub settings.

Copper

As soon as I graduated college (and even before), all I wanted to be was a dog mom. When I first moved to Charlotte I signed up to be a Rover dog sitter just to be around dogs, because I knew the time wasn’t right for me to get one of my own. All of my friends had dogs they could take to dog bars, breweries and parks, and I so desperately wanted to be able to do the same thing with a one of my own.

A few months after moving to Charlotte, I signed up to be a foster/adopter through a local Boxer rescue. At the time I didn’t understand why, but it didn’t work out, and I was never matched with anyone.

Almost a year later, in May of 2018, I settled into my new apartment in Huntersville and my life felt more stable than it had since moving to Charlotte. I felt ready.

I found Petfinder.com, a website that lists dogs and cats from different rescues and shelters that were available for adoption. I applied for probably 10 different dogs, none of which worked out for seemingly no reason that I could find.

One day, I was browsing through the site like normal, when I came across a skinny, beautifully colored boxer. I put in an application, met him in person, and took him home 6 days later.

I wish I could say our bond was immediate, but it wasn’t. In all honesty, Copper liked Jake more than me and most days in that first month I thought he hated me. He was reserved and wanted his space, and was not as affectionate as I was to him.

Over time, of course, that all changed. He trusted me more and more each day. When I quit my full time job and was home with him doing graduate work every day, we bonded very quickly. I was able to do more with him in the day, and “more” turned into everything.

He went with me on car rides and walks to Starbucks, and inside any store that was pet friendly (even some that weren’t).

I took him to nursing homes, and an adult day center where he very politely visited with the older adults that admired his beautiful color and gentle demeanor. Copper was a conversation started for residents to reminisce about the pets they once had, and tell me how lucky I was to have him. He was always gentle, but with them, he seemed to understand the importance of being even more tender and patient.

We learned quickly that Copper wasn’t dog friendly, which nixed a lot of the plans I made for us in my head. He couldn’t go to dog parks, or hike on busy trails, or visit breweries with us. We pivoted, though. I found an elementary school playground that was mostly fenced in, and we would take him there to chase the ball and get his zoomies out. We would take him in stores because other dogs wouldn’t be there, and Jake took him disc golfing every chance he could- which was arguably his favorite activity.

Copper wasn’t interested in toys either unless there was food involved. He wasn’t the type of dog that would chew on a bone, or rip apart a plush toy. He was too human for all that stuff. So we pivoted again. I got all too familiar with enrichment activities for dogs, and mastered them. Puzzle toys, lick mats, DIY sniff mats, and anything I could create for him to keep his mind busy, and engaged.

Copper and I spent Thanksgiving of 2018 just the two of us, in Huntersville. I took him for a ride, we walked on the greenway, ran around the school playground, ate dinner and watched a movie. No offense to the humans in my life, but that was my favorite Thanksgiving of all time. It was simple, and wordless, and full of love.

I powered through grad school the rest of that year, and into 2019. In May 2019, on my last day of class an active shooter opened fire in the building next to me. The days following were quiet, as I hadn’t yet started my job and everyone else was at work. It was just me, Copper, and all of my anxious thoughts. He didn’t know it, but he carried me through the aftermath of those days. I felt like I couldn’t be alone, and thank God, I wasn’t. He never left my side, and provided a sweet quiet comfort that only a dog can.

•

When I took a full time job after graduation, Jake started taking him to work at his asphalt plant’s lab every other day. We joked that Copper was in charge of “morale” for the company. People at the plant loved him, and every day he got to walk around off-leash and follow Jake around the plant. He was the happiest boy on those days.

•

In March 2020, with the uncertainty of what Covid-19 would do to my job and to the world, I packed up everything I could fit in my car, and Copper and I went to Mississippi. Copper and I spent that summer painting my parents’ house, going to the beach, missing Jake, chasing ducks (Copper, not me), going on daily walks with my dad, fighting a crab (also just Copper), going on rides in the front seat of my dad’s truck, and virtually anything else he wanted to do. As bad as the circumstances were, he (and my parents) kept me grounded and calm. He gave me purpose when everything around me felt uncertain, and I can never thank him enough for the reassurance he gave me that summer.

•

When I got back to Charlotte in August, Jake (and Copper) proposed. Copper got back into his routine of going to work with Jake on the days I had to go into the office, and he was home with me the rest of the time. We made many more road trips to Mississippi, hiked several mountains and trails that fall, and planned a wedding. There were ups and downs that year, but as with most hard times I went through, he was the positive note that I ended every day on. I felt like I’d known him and had him my whole life. I simply did not remember what life was like before him, and had no interest in remembering or ever finding out.

•

Our wedding was my favorite day for many reasons. But as most things in my life, Copper is at the center of the funniest memories. During our ceremony, he paced throughout the audience, politely greeting everyone up and down the aisles. He bounced behind Jake and I as we walked away from the altar after saying “I do.” He begged for a piece of wedding cake and food from the caterer, and no doubt he scored a bite of each at some point.

He became the collective responsibility of the wedding party and attendees throughout the night. I’m sure several people took it upon themselves to take him outside, and when he wasn’t dancing with us or walking through the crowd of people, he could be found laying next to me on my wedding dress train, or unsupervised riding up and down the elevator. We’re still not sure how he managed that.

•

Shortly after our wedding, life hit me hard and fast as my health rapidly deteriorated and my autoimmune disease spun out of control. Being young and chronically ill is isolating. The world continued to move around me, and people carried on with their activities in the summer and social lives while I stayed on the couch or in bed. For me, time stopped because it had to.

My therapist told me that Copper’s death may hit me particularly hard because as someone with a chronic illness, there are fewer safe spaces for me in the world and fewer people that understand. Copper always understood, though, and he was always a safe space for me. He didn’t whine on particularly bad pain days when I couldn’t take him for long walks, or when we suddenly stopped going on hikes. He just stayed with me. When the world continued to move and I had to stop, he stopped too. He didn’t love me any less when my face swelled from the steroids, or when I couldn’t do anything without an ice pack to my ear. Jake traveled for work so often during those 2 years. And so many nights, it was just me and Copper. Multiple times on those occasions, I explained to him that he was never allowed to die, and that we would simply have to be buried on the same day, because I don’t know how I would survive nights alone without him.

•

When Jake and I started looking into buying a house, our number one criteria was a fenced in backyard for Copper. He had lived in either an apartment or townhouse his entire time with us, and while he never lacked anything, we wanted to give him that. When our house became our worst nightmare, we always found peace in the fact that “at least Copper has a backyard.” He made this wretched house feel like a home.

•

•

When I found out the lump on his jaw, I don’t think the word heart break begins to describe the pain we felt. I felt like my world caved in on itself.

I always knew our time with him was finite, but I never actually willed myself to imagine the end of it. The month following his diagnosis was hard, and simultaneously felt insufferably long but entirely too short. I spent every day after his diagnosis managing his medications, managing the side effects of those medications, listening to his breathing, waking up throughout the night if he breathed funny or rustled even a little.

I struggled to find a way to keep him safe and healthy, but for the first time in his life, I couldn’t do that. There was no amount of vet visits or calls to my mom about symptoms that could stop time or reverse what was coming. We felt so helpless. Every day was suffocating.

The steroids made so many symptoms worse, and the pros did not outweigh the cons. Watching my big, strong, protective dog decline at the rate he did was the greatest heartbreak of my life- up to that point. I told him every day to let me know when he was ready, and I promised I would never let him suffer. People say that dogs often wait to die until they know it’s time. I told him to hold on until my mom came and got to say goodbye, and for me to return from a day trip to Atlanta. And he did exactly that.

Copper passed a month and half after his diagnosis.

•

•

•

Our house doesn’t feel like a home anymore without him. His absence is unbearable, and the silence in my everyday life is deafening. I feel like he took a part of me with him when he left. I don’t yet know what that part was, or when I’ll one day need it and realize it’s gone.

I’ve been without him for 18 days, 432 hours, and 25,920 minutes.

Every day I wake up and wonder what’s going to send me into tears, and what tiny habit I’ll find myself doing just to realize I don’t need to do it anymore. It’s been 18 days since I’ve stroked the white patch of hair in between his eyes, or put hot dogs in his toy, or found any purpose in going on a walk around the neighborhood. This is the longest I have ever been without him.

•

•

I rescued Copper once, but he rescued me hundreds of times. I think I always needed him more than he needed me.

I don’t know if I’ll ever love a dog the way I loved him, but maybe that’s for the best.

•

But I do know now why none of those other dogs worked out for me. He was mine before I knew who he was, and I was meant to be his mom. It was the privilege and joy of my life to take care of him and make him the center of my world.

He taught me how to be patient, and how to be angry at a situation but not him. He taught me that just showing up, and being present means more than the words you can or can’t offer to someone who is hurting or sick. He taught me that the past is an important indicator of the future, but doesn’t define it. He taught me that animals and people who are sometimes hard to love, are still worth loving. He taught me that I was capable of a love so great, it changed my life, and influenced the lives of many others. He taught me that time and persistence can heal wounds, and create space for new things.

He taught me that you can’t buy love, but you can rescue it.

Massive Project Development

The Cherry Creek West project, a massive development by East West Partners, is set to bring seven office and apartment buildings to the site where the old Bed Bath & Beyond store now overlooks University Boulevard. The 1.6 million-square-foot project, estimated to be 45% larger than the shopping center itself, has left neighborhood groups upset with the board's approval, saying it failed to define the potential size of the development better. Those groups and the developer agree that the planned urban development (PUD) documents comprising the rezoning plan do not limit the project's scale, even on the final numbers of buildings involved and their heights.

Day 5 Recap

First day of classes!!!

I am taking a Fabrics of Italy class and a Travel Writing class (aka why I started this blog).

It is very hot in our classrooms. Our classes are in a Fort, a literal Fortress!! We had the windows open to help create a breezeway, and I am very glad that I brought my pocket fan with me. It's rechargeable, and probably the best $10 I've ever spent. I've used it when traveling to other places and even when I play disc golf back home. Couldn't recommend one more, especially in a place where indoor ac is uncommon.

I keep finding familiarity and comforts in things I didn't expect:

Coke and Monster (doesn't taste the same, but it's nice to see it on shelves)

Detergent (I found the same detergent my fiancé's parents use, so I know it works for my sensitive skin)

It's so nice seeing classmates and Professors I knew before this trip

There's an odd nostalgia when looking over the rolling hills here

This town is a tourist town, but it's a tourist town even for other Italians, it makes me feel like we're all in this together

After class, I went to the grocery store with my classmate L, and two of my professors. My European friends were nice enough to let me know that you can tear open packs of drinks at the store and buy just the amount you need. It is still odd to see so many packs of drinks torn open on shelves.

After this we rode a little bus back up to the top of town and put away groceries. I hand-washed some bras, shoutout to L for giving me the right soap for handwashing. I met up with E and grabbed some food. We had these HUGE sandwiches for about 9€. The bread was so fresh that it was steaming as they cut into it to make sandwiches.

Everything here is filled with so much craft, care, passion, art, and love.

What a very strange day this has been! We left Paris this morning, departing by train from the Gare St. Lazare and arriving about 1.75 hours later in Rouen. Managing 2 electronic rail passes in a web-based app with spotty internet access proved challenging, but thank goodness for screen shots of our ticket QR codes, which satisfied the SNCF agents who made their way through the train, checking tickets along the way.

The plan was to store our luggage at a Bounce location in Rouen, having already spent about $30 for the convenience of being bag-free for 4 hours. The Bounce location was closed, which left us toodling about town for 4 hours with luggage in tow (no refund yet, but I'm working on that). We had a nice lunch at Dame Cakes Salon de The', but even that required carrying our bags up a flight of steep, narrow stairs to our table. A lunch of tea with savory cakes was great, though, so all was forgiven. We visited 2 fantastic churches, took some nice photos, I had Gelato, and at last we boarded our train for Caen.

Let me start by saying that I had concerns from the start about renting a car in a moderate-sized city, but ultimately decided to do it because of proximity to the train station. My concerns were legitimate. I rented the car via Uber, which partnered with local company Sixt, who tried to sell me overpriced insurance, despite the fact that Uber provides insurance with its rentals. Finally, after sorting out the details, we were given our key and a poorly designed map to go find the car. We walked a good distance, part of it uphill, only to realize we had missed the rental car lot and had to turn around and walk back to a pothole-filled lot where we finally found the car. We inspected the car, took pictures of a couple of scratches, and were finally ready to leave, but I couldn't figure out how to get the manual transmission into reverse. Thank God for Google, where we found the answer (lift up on the little ring at the top of the boot covering the gear shift) and were on our way. While I'm expressing gratitude, let me also give a shoutout to the built-in GPS in our rental Peugeot. Without it, we might still be driving around Caen trying to find the disc golf course needed to keep William's weekly playing streak alive. After 9 holes of disc golf at the park, GPS routed us from Caen to our hotel in Bayeux.

The first thing I did when we checked in to our Bayeux hotel room was konk my head on the square edge of a hanging rack. No blood, but yikes that hurt!

The day ended on a positive note, though. We had a great dinner at a brasserie next door to the hotel, consuming an amount of wine commensurate with the challenging nature of our day. I thanked & congratulated William for maintaining his composure and sense of humor throughout the frustrations of this day. This is how you know when you've found a great travel partner, someone who can laugh at the bizarre inconveniences of traveling independently and keep plugging away, ready for the next adventure.

Discovering the World of Disc: From Frisbees to Digital Storage

DiscIn a world filled with technological advancements and recreational innovations, one common yet versatile object stands out—the disc. From playful games in the park to critical data storage, discs have woven themselves into the fabric of modern life in surprising ways.

The Evolution of the Disc

The history of discs traces back centuries, with early civilizations crafting rudimentary versions from materials like stone and clay. Fast forward to the 20th century, and we see the birth of the modern disc with the invention of the Frisbee. Initially conceived as a pie tin tossed by Yale students, the Frisbee evolved into a ubiquitous symbol of leisure and outdoor fun.

From Play to Sport

What started as a casual pastime soon transformed into organized sports like Ultimate Frisbee and Disc Golf. These games require precision, teamwork, and strategy, captivating enthusiasts worldwide. Disc Golf, in particular, has gained significant traction, with dedicated courses sprawling across parks and forests, attracting players of all ages and skill levels.

Discs in Technology

Beyond the realm of recreation, discs have revolutionized the way we store and access information. Compact Discs (CDs) emerged in the 1980s as a groundbreaking storage medium, offering unparalleled convenience and durability compared to traditional analog formats. This innovation paved the way for DVDs, Blu-rays, and even digital discs like the versatile Digital Versatile Disc (DVD), which not only stored movies but also served as platforms for interactive content.

The Rise of Digital Discs

In the digital age, discs continue to play a crucial role in data storage and distribution. While cloud-based services dominate much of the landscape, physical discs remain relevant for their reliability and accessibility, especially in areas with limited internet connectivity. Moreover, archival discs promise long-term data preservation, ensuring that vital information remains intact for future generations.

The Future of Discs

As technology advances, the future of discs appears poised for further innovation. From holographic storage to eco-friendly materials, researchers are exploring new frontiers to enhance the capabilities and sustainability of discs. Whether in the form of entertainment or data storage, discs continue to adapt and thrive in an ever-changing world.

Conclusion

In a world teeming with gadgets and gizmos, the humble disc perseveres as a symbol of both simplicity and sophistication. From the joy of tossing a Frisbee with friends to the seamless transfer of digital data, discs embody the essence of human ingenuity and creativity. As we navigate the complexities of the modern age, let us not forget the enduring impact of this timeless invention—the disc.
