Road Tripping Part I

I left last week Friday for a week and half roadtrip to the heart of America...LA. I had to get out of Colorado and clear my head. I mean, I've had a month to decompress and i still didn't have any real direction as to what i would be doing with my life. So I figured a little adventure would inspire me a bit. On the way, I made a few stopovers to visit with my beloveds....

Stopover #1: Salt Lake City, Utah.

2 nights' stay with my brother and his girlfriend...I always have a great time with these guys....And they are some of the only people in the world who get me, and don't take offense to my favorite sport: Sightseeing at Wal-mart (if you haven't done it..you definately should try it sometime...grab a cart and start cruising the aisles in search of mullets and rat-tailed people...also seek out people who still own and wear Zubas....bonus points to be had for spotting anyone wearing PJs and fuzzy slippers.)
But I have digressed...Our fantastic weekend was spent going to an SLC house party (which was a strange mixture of 50 somethings and 20 somethings...i felt as though i was getting the opportunity to see what an actual Wal-mart shopper's home was like...yeah, i know I am a bitch.), the Utah-UCSD homecoming game (which was AWESOME...my brother and I got to stand on the field with the players and watch the game from their perspective...which is pretty crazy...I mean, people are screaming and yelling, cheering and booing, and we were in the middle of it....UTAH ended up losing, but for me it was all about having the opportunity to see stuff super up close and personal.)and catching a screening of Elizabethtown (which was a bit slow, but sweet and enjoyable.) Overall, we had an amazing weekend.
