There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, there is a rapture on the lonely shore, there is society, where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar: I love not man the less, but Nature more

Geek of the Week: Katie Reinke

Alexis suggested on Julie's blog that we begin to publish the geek of the week. For those of you who are unfamiliar, Julie and her friends are crazy. They enjoy making fun of each other for silly things. It is very rare to walk by the white board at the Bean house on 302 Division and not see a message declaring someone the geek of the week. Most of the time it will be a way to express frustration with someone for not doing something we wanted them to do. After the Christmas run this year Corey Reinke deemed his sister Katie and my sister Julie the geek of the week for not running (they walked around the neighborhood instead). And at the beginning of October, my cousin Logan gave Lucas the honor of becoming the geek of the week before he was even born. The message said:

Lucas is the geek of the week for being too stubborn to pop out!

So here is Erin's inaugural Geek of the Week blog post:

Katie Reinke is the geek of the week for pretending that she might run the Chicago Marathon and also for avoiding phone calls from people who would be interested in discussing this with her.
