Socialism, Life - what not . . . truth be told, this post kind of sux

No Way! Has it already been a week since I’ve blogged?

So today is September 11, 2007 – I don’t want to get all sappy on you about my patriotism and what not; I mean everyone’s got a story. . . but I will say I chose to exercise my love of country by getting out and voting in the primary for the Mayor of SLC. It’s actually pretty cool to live downtown because you get to vote for the mayor of your state’s capitol city . . . and how many people get to do that, eh?

I’m not going to tell you who I voted for unless they won . . . but I will say it wasn't the old man in biker shorts (not that there’s anything wrong with that); and it definitely wasn’t that Beuhler dude . . . besides the fact he's a republican (sometimes there can be something wrong with that), but because it seemed that a lot of people that were endorsing him also had “pro school voucher” signs on their lawns. . . my sister sends her kids to private school. Her husband is a doctor . . . they don’t need help from the government funding their children’s upper middle class white suburban education . . . however, there are plenty of schools in utah and teachers that I’m pretty sure could find a great place to use those funds.. . .

SOCIALISM DIATRIBES?
But no political diatribes tonight (STILL LOVING FRANCE AND UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE).

Just thought I’d update you on my week so far. . .

WORKING GIRL
Monday – started out at the airport on my way to Denver at 5:30 . . . spent all day working and tried to get out of DIA on a 6:51pm flight that didn’t end up leaving until 8:20. I finally got home at 10:00 that night. . . and procedded to open a facebook account to cross-promote my blog.

PS on the POSTS
PS. Holt, Rob, Stohl and Annie – props to you for posting comments. I FRIGGIN’ LOVE COMMENTS. And Rob, I know you told me how to get the blogs cross promoted, and I am going to do that someday . . . does someone want to login and do it for moi? ;)

SHED SOME LIGHT ON ME
Danny and I had two light bulbs burn out this week. We’re living on low-lighting and trick mirrors as Andy Warhol would say.

THIRTY AND FLIRTY
I turn 30 in a week. So does Marie Holt Lebaron. . . her blog and website are soooooo friggin’ cool. She’s super talented. You should check out her website. It will make you feel inadequate; but it’s totally worth it because you learn really neat stuff like what to do with left over crayon bits . . . www.makeandtakes.com

She also runs “the Stitching barn” and has my favourite bibs in the world.

YOGA & Dance Dance Revolution (without the nintendo "Power Pad")
Haven’t practiced yoga since Saturday, and I can’t go to dance this week because I’ll be in St George Wed and Thurs for work . . . I think I will miss yoga more than dance because . . . well, lets face it . . . I am a pretty crappy dancer, unless you’re talking about just rump shakin’ at the vortex (I’m kidding. . . I don’t do that . . .anymore). Sick, like I ever hung out at the Vortex . . .but i had a really portly roommate in college that wore a lot of parfume that sure liked to cage dance there. . .

MOVING ON!

STORIES (magazine features, etc)
I have a story due about Park City in three days. It’s like 1500 words and I am 1/1500 of the way finished. Good thing I don’t procrastinate.

I AM IMPATIENT.
I AM AN EXTROVERT.

That means I REALLY CAN’T WAIT TO MEET PEOPLE! ;)

NAMASTE . . .

Sabrena-

You make me laugh! I found your blog via Sarah's and have been browsing and fully entertained. Glad to hear that all is well and that you are 30, happy, busy, married and just as witty and funny as ever. I'll check back often for your writings and enlightenment on your life 'issues'. BTW, watched a 20/20 last night about socialized medicine vs. hmo's. Have to say that I was convinced that we have more accessible care than most. maybe not cheaper but easier and faster...just my thought...not that you really care.
Happy to have yet another fun blog to browse.
