t.g.f.r.

The power went out during my post run stretch tonight. It wasn't a big deal until it got dark and I got really bored. Lucky for me I have good friends. One of them picked me up to go get an ice cream. Wasn't really in the mood for ice cream but it was something to do. Lucky (again) for us, Rubio's was still open AND it is Taco Tuesday! Fish tacos for $1.25!!! They are delish. SheRoos introduced them to me when we were roommates and I've been hooked ever since.

I'm kinda happy the power went out tonight :) Who new a fish taco could make a girl this content?!?!

this is what's new

It has been brought to my attention by a few of you that this blog is not serving it's purpose...that is I'm not doing a good job of keeping people updated about the latest and greatest in my life. This is my attempt to update everyone on what is new.

Last Friday I went to an amazing concert. I went to the Swell Season - Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova. They were in a movie last year called Once. I thought the movie was okay but loved the music. Hearing it live was so much better! If you have the chance to go to a concert I highly recommend going! Sorry you missed it rcachm!!

So let's see....what else? Oh yeah, looks as though I'll be moving to San Diego in July. I've thought about moving for quite a while and had a couple places I was considering. I won't go into all the things I was looking for in my new city but everyone with an opinion said San Diego was the place for me. While I can appreciate good opinions I thought it would be best for me to check it out myself :) I went down last month to take the CBEST and had a great time. It all just feels good. Now the home and job search is on!!

i passed!

Got my scores back and I passed the test! Phew!! Good thing I'm not a moron!

item #4

I mentioned my quest for a new adventure each month in a previous post. The idea is that I have one big adventure or do something I haven't done before each month this year. A couple friends have called it my 'bucket list'. So funny and I love the name. I may not be kicking the bucket but I am leaving my twenties behind so I'm calling it my 30 year bucket list.

Anyway....yesterday I completed #4 on my bucket list. I went rock climbing for the first time! Ok, it wasn't on a real mountain or cliff or whatever it is you rock climb on but I did go to a climbing gym. I think I did pretty good for my first time. Not sore one bit today :) It was fun so I think I'll do it again. As long as I have someone trustworthy at the bottom with the rope I'm good to go.

Next month will take me far outside my comfort zone! Stay tuned....

latest adventure

Last week I went to San Diego to take the CBEST which is a test required for all teachers in California. As one of my friends put it..."It's basically a test to make sure you aren't a complete moron." Here is hoping I pass!!!

SD was so much fun! Plenty of sun and water to make for a perfect weekend. I went down with a friend from SLC and stayed with another friend who recently moved down there. Spent a day at the pool, one at the beach, had a bonfire with some friends, went to church, did a little sight seeing in La Jolla, dinner with friends and did a little shopping. Good times!

The pics were taken on my phone so they aren't the best:

sign?

I'm sitting in the airport in San Diego patiently waiting for my flight home. The weather has been fabulous and I've had a great time. Met some really cool, genuine people. Good times all around. Just found out it is snowing at home. Is this a sign? Delayed in sunny SD from my not so sunny home. Hmmmm.....

gone baby gone

A couple people gave me suggestions for a March adventure but I failed miserably to produce one. I did do something this month that I haven't done before and something I've been wanting to do for a long time. You decide if it qualifies as an adventure. Laser hair removal. Yep, that's right. I had my first treatment. Thanks to the fabulous Candy Apples who gave me a gift certificate. Anybody want to guess what body part had hair removed?? That sounds only slightly inappropriate. If only I knew how to set up one of those polls so many of you have on your blogs.....

oh and p.s. it HURTS!
