Dear Body,

First of all I'd like to apologize for writing so many letter form posts. Kay here goes.... I would really appreciate it if you could please give it up with the whole no respiratory immune system. We were perfectly healthy for 20 years and now we get bronchitis/nasty head colds at the drop of a hat. I'm literally sick about it and don't appreciate feeling like death warmed up. I acknowledge that some additional vitamins and sleep could be useful. However, you're not really pulling your weight either. Please try harder.

bit disappointing, don't you think?

Dear GG,

I waited all summer and wrote a blog for that? (actually 2 blogs) While the scenes involving Chuck and Blair were mildly amusing I was a bit disappointed with the rest. I don't know what to say about the Serena - daddy situation and why do we have so many imposters pretending to be people they aren't? Wasn't Georgina/Sarah enough? Hopefully you'll get better. As Bridget Jones says, "Please behave better in future." We don't want a repeat of the OC season 3 failure.

p.s. Mad props to Jenny the money has done you well.

22 hours and counting

In precisely 22 hours and 5 minutes I will be enjoying a much missed past time called watching gossip girl. Season 3 looks killer and I can't wait. Hilary Duff, girl from Reba and new hot step brother. I'm super excited, plus a dose of chuck and blair - my fave! Unfortunately my car has decided to be sick and so I will be viewing it at my bro's and missing my friend hol's premiere party, since I have to get my car fixed. Yuck! But, not even that can dampen my excitement.

Rexy Sexy

I'm visiting the town of Rexburg, Idaho where I went to college and my bestie Em lives. The only thing that would have made this better is if our other bestie Holly could have come. We've already gone to dinner at one of our fav places, driven around a bit, talked about how crazy the roads are, attempted to go to a party full of frosh and quickly left then drank dc late into the night while watching girl flicks and chatting. Today we're visiting the campus and going into the nearest actual city. Can't hardly wait!

2nd job ?!?

So I like to pretend that I don't but I actually love being psychotically busy. The last year of my life is the first time in about 5 years I didn't have two jobs. Well, actually the 4 hour a day commute was kind of like a part time job. So I've been in SLC for a month and am going crazy with how little I have to do. I thought about getting a more intense teaching job and then after the interview from hell, decided i'd rather just have two medium intensity jobs. I interviewed with Huntington Learning Center on Saturday and they gave me the job on the spot. I'll be tutoring SAT/ACT prep, working 20 hours a week and stocking all the money away to travel the world next summer. (Well at least Europe) Anyone want to join me? I'm thinking Greece, Italy and the Czech Republic. Oh good?

Em and Fam

My bestie Em is on her way here right now from San Diego and I'm super excited to see her! I went and stayed with her at her family's house a couple of weeks ago and they liked me so much that she, her brother, and her mom are coming to stay at my house on their way up to BYU-I. Honestly they're probably the coolest family I know outside of my own. Oh good! Can't wait.

kicking into fall

So my favourite thing about fall? Besides leaves falling and driving through aspen grove it's def the clothes. By winter I'm sick of all the layers, spring just isn't as much fun, summer stresses me out but fall is fun. All of the top labels seem to release the best clothes and we still look pretty with our residual tans. I went shopping tonight and bought 2 new pairs of boots, a black mid calf pair with straps and metal details and a cowboy inspired pair a titch higher. Soooooo... cute. Can't wait to wear them with a fresh pair of skinnies and some cute new fitted plaid shirts from Forever 21. Now only if the weather would cool down a bit.
