Would Boston be jealous?

I'm a simple girl.  There are really only a few things I need to be happy.  Today, I got none of them.

Utah apparently doesn't know what REAL running shoes are.  All I wanted was a pair of Brooks Ghost3's or another pair of Newtons (ok lets be honest I can't afford those yet).  All I found were Nike (barf) and Saucony (meh).  Needless to say I came home with a pair of running pants (the shorts left my legs frostbitten) and strawberry twizzlers.  Don't judge me.

Also, today I was set on swimming.  Not splashing around in a pool reading magazines and checking out lifeguards kind of swimming.  I've been craving a lap pool since I left Arizona.  I set out with my one piece, BYU-approved swimsuit and was DETERMINED to get into that pool.  The lifeguard had other plans.  I think he was gay.  I'll try again tomorrow (slash, when another lifeguard is on duty).

Lastly,  no amount of money in the world could buy this:  I wanted SUN.  We've had such beautiful weather these past couple days and I just wanted ONE MORE DAY of happy fall weather.  I woke up to rain, rain, rain.

On a positive(ish) note, less than a week left of my Utah stay then it's off to California!  A week of studio time, writing, and shows in Los Angeles!  Not exactly a relaxing California vacation but hey... I've had enough sitting around.  I'm ready to go!
