Shopping Adventures

I like to live my life awesomely. This means making daily tasks, like going shopping, into superb outings where nobody knows what is going to happen. And believe you me, this week has been full of them.

First off, there was a second Wal-Mart fiasco this week. I don't know why I've spent so much time there lately, but maybe it's because it's where my kind of people hang out. The pregnant lady was one thing; seeing an old mans bum because he pulls down his pants before he makes it into the public bathroom is another thing. Wow. Too bad I didn't get a picture of that.

Then there was Target. You know when you're living your life, going to Target because Wal-Mart is getting old? And then you see one of those electronic carts for old people/gimps? In the middle of the parking lot? And you love riding those carts because for some reason they make you feel like you're on top of the world? OK me too. So there was an abandoned cart in the middle of the parking lot and I was doing my basic citizen duty by bringing it in. Only problem was that the battery was thisclose to dying and so that made it super slow. No big: my persistence paid off and I made it! You're welcome Target.


D.I. was another story. Whilst shopping for rocking chairs I saw this awesome little blue chair. I sit down, barely push back (I thought it was one of those slider chairs) and then BAM. I fall completely backwards. This forces the two chairs behind mine to fall off the little step they're on and then like four other chairs make their way to the ground. Oops. In other news, I found a splendid dress at the DI.

And thats what I do.

Another confession

(this isn't about the same subject matter as before) A lot of the time when I meet people I feel like I know them from somewhere. A good percentage of the time I realize the only way I know them is that they resemble one of the characters on the classic board game Guess Who? Does this happen to anyone else?!?!

Recent Obsession Flair-ups

You know how there are some things that you love so much and you experience these things a ton but then after awhile they just seem to fade out? But then some time passes and you almost rediscover these things with new eyes and obsess over them again almost worse than the first time? This has recently happened to me with a few things. They include: Elton John Tater Tots Seinfeld Showering Grape Juice Thats it. PS: (Did you know?!) Thanks to Dare-bear-stare for helping me learn that my own Denver International Airport is the largest airport in the U.S. at 53 square miles! Props to Denver yet again!

Take Home Chef Wannabe

So once upon a time my friend Jeff and I made up our own little tradition. We called it "Friday Picture" and each Friday we would walk around campus and take a picture with the most awkward/awesome/unique looking individual we could find. It was something I looked forward to every week, and we would constantly surprise ourselves with the kind of people we'd see walking around BYU. A lot of weridos there. One day we decided to meander through the library to see if there was anyone extra special for our Friday Picture. Boyyy, did we find that special person! World, meet Take Home Chef Lookalike. I saw him and I couldn't believe the similarities. The striking features. The blond, pointy hair. We even found some silverware to make the photo more true to life. ( The real Curtis Stone ) Try to tell me they don't look alike. Just try. I think the best part of the story is that Jeff's girlfriend at the time (now wife) had dated Take Home Chef-a-like. And we di...
