seattle was a blast.

Well, I am back from Seattle. And Reader, as you probably guessed, I now love Seattle and want to live there. Will I ever go to a city that I won't want to move to? While San Francisco is my #1 all time favorite city and always will be, I can picture myself living in Seattle more than San Fran.

Our hotel was right next to the Space Needle! Seeing a landmark like that is always exciting... but I was even more excited because Invisible Monsters is one of my favorite books and they go there in that book. So while I was at the Space Needle I kept picturing that part in the book. Exciting stuff.

We did the normal touristy stuff. And I especially loved how everything was walking distance. We didn't need a cab once. It was pretty chilly, but I didn't care.

We:
-Saw the Space Needle.
-Went to the top of the Space Needle. Whooooa talk about butterflies.
-Went to the EMP Museum. But I can't remember what EPA stands for... ( a cool music museum )
-Walked around the city.
-Walked through Pikes Market.
-Rode the Monorail.
-Ate the best grilled cheese sandwich of my life. The bread was French toast. OH YUM.
-Saw Utah football lose to Washington :(
-Saw the gum wall. Which is equally exciting as it is disgusting.
-Put some gum on the wall.

Here are (just a few because I'm stupid and left my real camera at home. duh) pictures of the trip.

 Gum wall. Ew. But awesome.

And YES. That is the guitar the JIMI FREAKING HENDRIX played at WOODSTOCK. I can't believe I was that close to it. It was insane. But really cool.

today, november 5th. - happy back to the future day.

November 5th.

So while all your friends on Facebook are putting, "Remember, remember, the 5th of November..." You can be all like, "Actually today is the day Doc invented the Flux Capacitor, so BOOM!" And they will be like, "Oooh snap!"

Reader, Happy Back to the Future Day.

Update: This weekend, I will be riding a bus up to Seattle. I think the ride is supposed to be like 14 hours. But I don't care. I love long drives/rides. So I will be pretty happy! Until the time comes when I've run out of comfy ways to sit in a bus chair. Oh well. I've never been to Seattle so I'm excited to what it's all about up there. But the only thing is, I will probably love it and want to move there. This happens every time I go to a new city.

Bunny is doing great. Last night I was bored so I started to sprinkle some of this water on him (just to see his reaction) and will you please guess what he did? He stood up on his hind legs, held out his front paws to catch the water and then started rubbing/washing his face. Yes, I was pretty much freaking out from the adorable-ness. That's not a word but I'm using it anyway. Actually I just Googled it and it is a word.

BYE!

it's officially started.

College football has officially started!

I went to the Utah football game last night and it felt great to be back in the stadium. We won of course, what kind of question was that?

I stood in the student section... called the MUSS. The guy I was standing next to was named Normal. Yes, NORMAL. I didn't believe him but with a quick flash of his ID, he wasn't lying. And don't worry, he goes by MOLE, not Norm.

Anyway, our seats are on SECOND ROW.



Oh and since Steve is an Athletic Trainer at the U, he was on the sidelines for the game. Um, jealous. He loved it. He also got on TV next to Coach Whit.
