Our Road Trip
I was going to paint tonight in effort to develop my hobbies but I've had this blog on my mind for a few weeks now. Linwood and his brother Evan and Evan's wife Hilary and I took a pretty impressive road trip a few weeks ago. Linwood and I flew to Denver where we stayed with Evan and Hilary then the four of us drove to Las Vegas to spend a few days then drove to Los Angeles to spend a few more days and then drove up to the Bay Area and after a few days there we drove back to Salt Lake City. We got to visit with a lot of family and see some really cool things. I also kept almost all of my reciepts while on the trip so that I could review where our money was spent. Here is the breakdown:
1 yard of ribbon
1 2-pack of AA Batteries
1 LA Angels baseball ticket
1 Cup of Tomato Soup
1 Ultimate Grilled Cheese Sandwich
1 Beef 'n Bleu Grilled Cheese Sandwich
1 Bottle of Apple Juice
1 2-pack of socks
1 Purse
2 Breakfast Buffets
1 Tube of Cheek Stain (Blush)
1 Retro Adidas Jacket
1 Pair of Jeans
1 Pair of Red Loafers
5 In-N-Out Cheesburgers
4 In-N-Out French Fries
2 In-N-Out French Fries Animal Style
3 In-N-Out Strawberry Shakes
2 Registration for Bolder Boulder
1 Pair of Sweet Asics
1 Bottle of Hairspray
1 Package of False Eyelashes
1 7-Up
1 RedBox Movie
2 Shirts
1 Sweater
1 Jacket
1 Skirt
1 Pair of Black Jeans
.59 lb Roasted Salted Macadamia Nuts
1.02 lb Raisins
1 Lemonade from Hot Dog on a Stick
Some Mexican Food
1 Beef Taco Salad
43.21 gallons of gas
There was more but that is my list from all the reciept that I saved.

Photo Tag
I saw this on Heidi's blog and its a list so I thought I'd do it. At the end of the blog, you tag other people to add it to their blogs. She didn't tag me, but I think I'm allowed to do it anyway. So, what you do is search for a picture on Google (or Yahoo!) Images in each category then post an image from the first page of results.
Age on my next birthday:
(26) nothing describes me better than math
A place I'd like to visit
Italy, of course
A favorite place
Not suprising: PITTSBURGH!
One of my favorite things:
I typed in 'my family'. This is close enough.
One of my favorite foods:
Adam, we should totally make a shirt of this one...Adam?...Adam?...
My favorite flower:
That's a Cala Lily and I've heard that it isn't technically a flower. Can I get a do over?
My favorite color:
Cerulean Blue
City I live in:
Salt Lake City, UT. Its been almost 6 years.
Name of a past pet:
I had a really hard time trying to think of a pet that I kept alive long enough to name. When I worked at Sherwin Williams we bought some fish and I named mine Kumquat. It lasted a week! Also, I love this artist.
A nickname I've had:
Typically nicknames are a shorter version of someone's name but that would leave me with Broo or just Ook.
My college major:
This image says it all. (Social Sciences)
My first job:
I was 15 when I started working at the Dollar Tree. I'm glad this image includes happy Dollar Tree employees.
A hope for 2008:
I've been working on my associate's degree for eight years now and by just doing an image search I've found that you can get degrees for only $50!
Okay, that was harder than I had expected but fun. So, now I will tag all of the people who read my blog and have a blog of their own and have not yet blogged this already. That's you Alexis.

living like a tourist
I've decided that I should start living more like a tourist. So, next time I go to NYC I have to go to the "touristy" places which include:
Statue of Liberty
Ellis Island
Brooklyn Bridge
And while I'm living here, I need to:
tour the Kennecot Copper Mine
go to the Tracy Avairy
swim in the Great Salt Lake
go to the Hot Springs
take some tours at Temple Square
churn butter at This is the Place Monument
Also, when I go to Vegas this summer (which is touristy enough) I'll:
watch the water show at the Bellagio
go to the Coke factory
see the Hoover Dam
Then I'm going to Los Angeles and I'll:
go to the beach
see a Jon Brion concert
Dodgers game...
eat In-n-Out (I would do that anyway)
I think within 5 years, I won't be living on this side of the Mississippi so I need to visit all of the places that people travel here to see. Also, I love going to New York City because its so relaxing to just wander around the city but I really should check out this statue of Liberty. Its been years since I last saw her. I'm thinking she's gonna look a lot smaller now that i"m so big!
Update: I just went to NYC and didn't do anything on the list and I haven't done any of the Salt Lake things yet. When I was in Vegas it was too windy to do the water show at the Bellagio, the Coke factory doesn't exist anymore, and we didn't go to the Hoover Dam. In LA I DID go to the beach, I DID see a Jon Brion concert which was at the same time as a Dodgers game so I could do both and of course I ate at In-N-Out. Not bad.

This is stupid.
I just want to write a blog to aknowledge the fact that I haven't blogged in a while. I have some drafts going but nothing ready to post. I'm busy.
I go to college.
