Weekend Success

I know that its already Wednesday, but my weekend was pretty good.  

Friday started with a visit to the nail salon where the brother and mother and I got some pampering.  The girls at the salon totally remembered us, too.  Or they at least remembered Brian.


Then we sang together in the car.  Because we're champions.


During the salon visit, my friend Jana texted me and said we should do a chocolate fountain that night.  I never say no to a chocolate fountain.


We ate a disgusting amount of chocolate and played an almost endless competition of Mario Kart.  I made it to the podium once!  That is pretty good for me (i am usually in 12th place.  not a champion). 


After hitting up a couple more estate sales on Saturday, it was time to counteract the white trash-ness of it all with a trip to the ballet.  My favorite part of any live orchestra performance (ballet, opera, symphony, etc) is when the musicians are all warming up before it starts and it sounds all confused, and then the conductor comes out and BAM!  They start in perfect harmony.  I love it so much.




This weekend also included Mexican food, an impromptu dance party, a long Sunday nap, and Grandma yelling for my mom.

Success.

I'd like to think that you have a Colorado equivalent of all your friends in Utah, except that have one less 'N' in their name. For instance, Janna becomes your friend Jana. Loga, Jill Crae, Darre, Katie Ducan, Rachel Quada (ok that last one doesn't work)

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...
