Thursday: Pioneer Day:
Keith, Jim, Ceci, Hayden, Kelsey, Danny, Abby, Stephen and I went on a long drive around the Alpine Loop and had a picnic. It was beautiful and I love Utah so much. We got back. Stephen and I went to Wal Mart to run errands while everyone else did whatever.
I WAS going to go to the ABBA Tribute Band concert at the SCERA Theatre… you know that. I talked about it frequently with a great deal of enthusiasm. However, that didn’t happen and instead we went to see the movie Mamma Mia! So, we still got our ABBA, just in a different form. It was SUCH a ridiculous, good, and ridiculously good movie. SUCH a good movie. Disclaimer: It isn’t rated PG. Therefore, if you are sensitive to some things, you may not enjoy it as much as you could have if you looked past those things.
At night, I got back and eventually decided to de-stress by going on a run. So, as it is nearing 1am, I call Danny who agrees to run with me. He’s so great! Even though he was tired, he said he’d rather go running with me than have me go alone. What a friend!
Oh, and then a fire started on the Y (mountain), but it wasn’t really anything. Just some stupid kids playing with fireworks. They ARE legal right now, as it is a holiday here, but really. On a mountain with bushes and stuff? Stupid.
Friday: I saw The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian at the dollar theatre. It was SUCH a good movie, complete with obligatory kissing scene and everything. I got rather sad with all the war and dying, though, but I love the religious symbolism. Incredible. Now if only I could get myself to sit down and read the books.
Saturday: IDAHO!
Danny, Devon, Ryan and I drove up to check out BYU-I for Danny. However, being a Saturday, it was closed. EVERYTHING was closed. So we just walked around. We did some other stuff in Idaho. Most of it backfired. It was still a cool day. The car ride was probably the weirdest but funniest thing ever. Somehow we turned into some dysfunctional family with Ryan and I being the parents. If I tried to explain, you wouldn’t understand but Danny and Devon typed out a very detailed diary of the happenings AS they were happening. Laptops apparently have incredible battery life nowadays.
The Potato Museum, which was closed by the time we got there, but at least we got this picture.
Sunday: Church. Dinner. A storm has rolled in, or rather, is rolling in as I type. It’s gorgeously overcast and I think I hear thunder. Hurray!
Well, that was my week. The end.
