River

I momentarily take a break in the review of our trip to talk about my Wednesday night whereabouts.

And because I feel like there are 208585 pictures of it coming up on the FB, it will be easy.

We had our YSA (mormon nonmarrieds) go and play in a freezing cold river!  


We started out in those rafts and I told everyone that if they pushed me in/tipped our raft, I would, and I quote, "kick them in the junk".  Then one of the married 'leaders' (i'm pretty sure we're around the same age) did it.  Sunday will be less than pleasant for him.

(the above photo is not of the married man.  this one is engaged, but we were just fighting to the death) 

A few thoughts on this event (warning: a couple boob references will be included):

1.  It was actually really fun.
2.  Everyone had to wear a life jacket.  I needed assistance in getting mine zipped up.  Breathing was difficult.
3.  At one point when I was being helped back onto the raft, one of my friends goes "Cindy...I think I just saw a little too much of you".  I can't help it if that mini life jacket also was one of the best push up bras I've ever had.  Sorry, boys...or...you're welcome?
4.  The boys did a pyramid on one of the rafts.  I was pretty impressed.


5.  I lost one of my rings that I've worn every day for the last four or so years.  Sad.  
6.  Lots of them wore shoes during this activity.  I don't get it.
  7.  It was also a night of goodbyes.  I will miss these peoples.  Even if they are British.




(i promise you i didn't pee my pants...or did i?)

I'm an expert pee-er-in-the-river. As long as you're not wearing a dry suit or a wet suit, it's NBD. Actually, it's nice to swim in a warm spot of river for a change.

Come raft with us.

...But you can't wear my wet suit. Even though it's on hundred per cent washable. (Not that you want to.)

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...
