desperate

So, I've not posted for a while. Yeah, I went on vacation, etc. It's been fun. I'll tell you all about that later. With pictures. If Liz reminds me. :D

What I have is a problem. You see, about 3 months ago, I voiced a desire to go see Dave Matthews Band live in Salt Lake City. Completely out of the blue, my sister-in-law bought me two tickets. I figured I could either take a guy-friend, or my best friend.

Well, the concert is Tuesday. And both my friends are busy. Another friend is in Florida. I don't want to waste these tickets, but I really don't want to go by myself.

So the question is: Who wants to go with me?

spuds. that rock.

1. When will my prince come?

2. The Diamond Throne by David Eddings was the last good book I read!!

3. Everything has its beauty but sometimes it's hard to find.

4. I don't even remember is what I had for dinner last night!

5. I'd like your advice, but i don't know how to ask for it.

Vacation, pt 1

So, I went on vacation. One month ago. Approximately. I went with my mom, granddad, and Sylvia. Granddad and Sylvia are from England, so they wanted to do some touring they invited me to go along, since I didn't get into the Wales study abroad (actually, he never emailed me either way, but I sort of doubt that I made it - since they've been gone a month now. Not that I'm bitter or anything.)

Anyway, I took 611 pictures. As much as I'd love to post them all here, I can't. I can't even put them all on facebook. So, you'll get some. I won't put captions under all of them, but I'll try to explain most things. And yes, there will be more than one post. I was gone 3 weeks, I can't do that all in one post.

My mom hit a sagebrush on our way down to Moab, our first day. To be honest, it was flying across the highway. Wasn't really my moms fault. :D I just love my moms expression. I love you, mom! Granddad and Sylvia in Arches National Park. Aren't they cute? Balancing Rock. Then we went to Mesa Verde, cliff dwellings in Colorado. The view was pretty spectacular. A cool tree. Flowers!
