Is he gay or European?

Last night Bonnie and I went to see Legally Blond the musical. It was fantastic! So much pink! The show was good and I liked most of the actors/singers. Elle's singing voice kind of got on my nerves. She kept singing through her nose. Emmett was super cute. Bonnie and I decided we liked the second act better. There was an song called "Ireland" that was good sung by Paulette. Which by the way did a fabulous job. I think she had the best voice.

That is my first show of the 2009/2010 Broadway season at Gammage. I have 2 season tickets and love going to new shows.

This season includes:
Little House on the Prairie:The musical (is this a joke?)
August:Osage County
Mary Poppins
Avenue Q
The 39 steps
In the Heights

Im also going to see Phantom of the Opera which isnt part of my season but I have seen it in more than a decade so I thought Id go. I like taking different people to my shows. I have a different experience every time I go. I try choosing a person that will really appropriate the musical/play. This is my 4th year getting season tickets. I hope to continue getting them every year.

**Is he gay or European is a song from the show.

I might end up like Telly Savalas

I think I am losing my hair. I really think I am. I usually lose hair but I swear it twice as much right now. It might have something to do with my stress level right now or the fact I havent been exercising or my diet has gone to crap OR that in 3 weeks from today I will be 29 YEARS OLD!! Im just saying ONE of those thing may be contributing.

smells like thanksgiving

Last night I mad a new recipe for pumpkin bread. Its really good. I made it plain with out nuts or chocolate chip which I usually like to put in all my pumpkin/banana bread loaves. Here is where I got the recipe.
Check out the blog its real fun!

new coat of paint?

Last night I was talking/brain storming with my friends about decorating and I told them they could use me as their "decorating dilemma" for their decorating blog. Im excited and nervous all at the same time. What if they think my house is crap or what if this turns into a "money pit"? Shes coming in Monday for a color and is going to look at my bedroom and start thinking of ideas. I will for sure do pictures if and when it gets redone.

Girls just want to have fun!

I am a planner. Yes I am. I have already started thinking about my 30th birthday party which will be NEXT October. I already have this years mostly planned (Evening of October 10th, where TBA) I actually got the inspiration for my 30th from an activity the YSA had last weekend. AN 80's Party! Yes Im going to make all my friend and family dress up in there best 80's outfits and come help me celebrate the end of my life! (jk i know 30 isnt the end its the beginning and Im just a baby...blah, blah, blah)

This year I am actually going to be at Disneyland on my birthday. I have taken advantage of the "get in free on your birthday" going on this year at Disney. It should be a good time. Im also taking off the whole week for my birthday. I am really looking forward to it. My birthday is actually 6 weeks from today. I cant believe its almost here.

Home Sweet Home

I just returned today from having the last 4 days off and one more to go. I went to Park City, Utah with my parents and littlest sister, who actually is taller than me by at least 3 inches now....Anyways we went because my dad had a football clinic. Does my dad coach football? No. Play football? No...he is actually an official for college football, the Big Sky conference to be exact. This will be his 11th year. He is a field judge. There are 10 schools in the conference...NAU,WEBER,SAC STATE, EASTERN WASHINGTON...

Not that I'm a huge college football fan but I like the shopping. You see there is a TON of shopping to be done in PC. My mother and siblings have gone for years but it wasn't until last year (2008) did I go for my first time. Its was amazing! I got my favorite black dress there at BCBG last year among other things. This year I have to admit I didn't have as much luck. I did actually purchase the same dress but in brown/cream.

I did spend a little too much money this trip. It might just be because I just finished the 2nd book in the Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella "Shopaholic Takes Manhattan." Rebecca Bloomwoods spends WAY too much and cloths, shoes and other things she will never use. I do love buying shoes. I think I have 43 pairs.....44 I just got new running shoes.... The book is pretty good. Its entertaining and reminds you to keep your spending habits in check. She is constantly lying to cover her "shopping obsession". She ends up telling these huge "tales" to cover her spending and lies. If you need something light and fun I would recommend it. There are 3 more in the series. BTW...the movie is like the first two books but very different,like she English in the books and American in the movie. I liked the movie too...Hugh Dancy is pretty damn cute!

We drove and the drive there and back wasn't too bad. I enjoyed it. I had a lot of time to think. We started the trip but driving to Kanab Wednesday after work and stayed there that night in a Holiday Inn. It was WAY nice. It had this whole "western theme". Picture this: pictures of John Wayne all over the lobby, carpets in hall ways had buffalo's, cowboys and Indians. In the room the chairs and head board were covered in brown and white cow hide. Then in the breakfast room the had a picture of The Duke above the coffee machine. The shampoo/conditioner/lotion also smelled really good. We got up Thursday and continued on to Park City.

On the way home we stopped in Flagstaff and ate at taco bell (mckenna loves their chalupas). After we ate in went to the restroom one last time (Gilberts still 2 hours away) and when I went out side my dad was pulling the car back in. He had forgotten me! I felt a bit like olive in Little Miss Sunshine.

It has been nice to have time off and be away from home and relax. I really enjoyed myself. My sister and I did keep the bickering to a minimal. To all in all a good trip.

Disappointment

There are a lot of disappointments in your life. Not getting the rice maker for your birthday, realizing your bread is moldy when you were totally excited for a PBJ sandwich, catching the end of the movie on IFC you've been wanting to watch and one of the biggest disappointments is realizing that, that guy at the gym you think is hot from across the gym actually isn't very attractive at all. When you finally got a good enough look at him you realize why he works so hard on his body because God has beat him with the ugly stick.

This doesn't only happen at the gym, I see this EVERYWHERE and its very depressing. There's also the "hat trick" (im not talking about in Hockey when they score 3 goals in a row) its when you think a guy is attractive until he takes off his hat. Then you realize the reason for the hat was not only to cover up his balding head (which I actually like) but to cover part of his face.

There's also the random tattoos. I have seen the most bizarre tattoos at the gym. I like looking at good tattoos but sometimes I just dont get what they were trying to do. For example: I saw a gym with a palm tree on his arm. Why? I have no idea. I kind of want to ask him what inspired him to get that tattoo. Some of my favorites are the cartoon characters. I have actually seen a grow man with a Tasmanian Devil in his calf.

I promise Im not bashing tattoos. I have actually always wanted to get one or three. My friend Becky has the most beautiful one of a dragon on the outside of her foot. I have a lot of friends with tats and think most of them are beautiful.

I dont know how I went from being mad about realizing my hot gym guy is ugly to tats.

Have any favorite "terrible, what were they thinking,I hope they were drunk" tats?
