A Wonderful Holiday

Memorial Day Weekend has to be one of the best of the year... It is the first time I get to hit the pool and soak up sunshine... and every year, I soak up a little too much. I come back looking like I little strawberry (or so I am told). As I think about it that, it fits. I am a very warm red with little brown freckles.

In any case I love it. However, this year was better than most. I spent a lot of time in the car, driving to St. George, home and all around town. I secretly loved it a lot. I got to be with my friends, see those I loved. I bought a couple new CDs for the drive and was super impressed by The Resistance by MUSE. I tried out a new band, DEFTONES- they were okay. And of course I spent some time with Ke$ha--- however you choose to say it.

I ate lots of yummy cupcakes and got Jack in the Box.

But I think one of the best moments of the weekend was watching Star Wars on the couch. :)

Another wonderful memory came from one particular conversation with a friend around midnight. Just as we were approaching the freeway exit- we started talking about life plans. I know that many young adults feel super lost. I included in all of this. But it was so interesting to hear them talk to me. They told me about where they stood and how they felt like their feet were somehow stuck there. I thought about it a lot as I slept that night.

PS Always wear spandex when traveling, it is so comfortable!
