- 7:00am class is fucking early.
- I didn’t think it was possible to have a worse massage than the angry Russian massage therapist who took a no-pain-no-gain attitude that left me with bruises all over my back. THEN, I found out there is something worse: being “pet” for one hour. It was more like a really long application of oil; which doesn’t seem so bad because it is hella dry here, but it was so weak it actually made me angry. Good thing it was free! Though it made me desperately miss Korean women with strong hands.
- After living here for one year it’s still weird to see married couples who don’t look old enough to drive.
- It’s annoying that there are bridal advertisements next to my school logo on mouse pads.
- And church buildings on a community college campus? Separation of church and state at its finest!
- I forgot how totally awesome The Murmers “You Suck” is.
- Wildfires are scary.
- I’m having a Zip-a-Dee but I wish it were an Organic Trader Joe’s Lollipop.
- Good thing I’m going to the OC in a few weeks!
- I bought a text book online and got pissed off when the seller sent me a message THREE DAYS LATER to let me know they sold my book locally and would appreciate some positive feedback. Know what I’d appreciate? MY MOTHER FUCKING TEXT BOOK.
- I feel like crying.

Don’t cry, Pants. It’s always darkest before the dawn.
Oof. 7:00 am class IS early. I’m sorry.
Yeah, I can smell the smoke from the fires down your way. It sucks. I hope you didn’t have to be evacuated.
As far as people getting married too young, I have a niece that just turned 21 and has been married and divorced already. She still looks like a baby to me.
Ye Gads, when I went to college there weren’t demons that scheduled 7 a.m. classes. 8 a.m. is damn hard enough, yo.
Hoping you aren’t in or around the nasty fire- husband and I saw it coming out from a nice lunch at the Oyster Bar on 106000 (shhh, I drank at lunch, don’t tell) and I was pretty horrified. At the fire, not the fact I had Chardonnay at lunch.
My husband has to go to Vegas for a conference in a month and I’m seriously considering burning a) cash and b) time off to take the small son and I. It’s not the OC but part of the hotel stay is free and I’m suffering under the Utah sky. What to do?
The fact that my son, in 9th grade, had friends that went to “seminary” during school so they didn’t have to get as much education just drove me bonkers. In Idaho, they had to go before school. It made it less intrusive for the rest of us.
Hang in there…school will so be worth it.
ubermilf,
Today almost feels better.
Stefanie,
It’s my own fault. I didn’t realize I need to complete math (yes, my 7:00am class is MATH) so that I can take necessary courses next semester. I was glad to find the very last open class, just not at 7:00am! To make it a little more hellish – I have night classes on two nights that end at 9:30pm and 9:50pm. Double ack.
The Grunt,
We didn’t have to evacuate, but we’re not far from houses that were evacuated. It’s sad to look up and see the barbequed mountain.
Your niece looks like a baby to you because 21 IS technically a baby.
lostinutah,
Wanna hear something outter-limits weird? I’m considering auditing an institute class as punishment, er, a paper, for my anthropology class.
#2 – I’m surprised massages are legal in Utah.
#3. It’s beyond weird
#5 – When I showed my b.f. where I went to high school, he wanted to know what the seminary building was, so I had to explain. His northeast mentality couldn’t quite grasp how that could be legal.
#7 – Be careful.
I’m surprised massages are legal in Utah too! It’s funny…massage therapists here say, “Please undress to your comfort level” before they leave the room because a lot people leave their holy f’ing underwear on for a MASSAGE. Is that the craziest fucking thing ever? It defeats the entire purpose. LAME.
I too have been the victim of a bad massage or two. It makes me want to punch the “therapist” in the face.
Luckily for many pre-teen couples, there is TRAX.
I feel like crying too… OH wait, I have been. Maybe that means it’s time for a girl date.
Well, maybe if you would have worn Jesus Jammies, they would have protected you from the the angry Russian masseuse.
meggypoo,
Let’s fix that and get ourselves on a girl date! I vote movie.
Amy,
The only thing that can protect you from the Russian masseuse is death. Even then, I’m not entirely convinced he can’t reach you.
7 am class is the only thing I miss from school. Other than that, I would go back in a heartbeat. Okay, I don’t miss paying tuition either, but everything else? I’m jealous of you. And number 10 made me laugh out loud.
There are organic lollipops at TJ’s?? When you come to visit, you have to show me. Not too much longer. Yippee!
The Murmurs rock my pants off.
brandy,
Tuition and textbooks are killing me! I spent $500 on textbooks for four class. OUCH! I need to decide how I’m going to pay for the book I tried to buy online. Lame!
Burreetoe,
They are super yum-o! I seriously cannot wait to get out of here for the weekend!
sdragoc,
Just like my vagina.
This is probably going to crack you up. Me and another girl in my office found out we’re getting sent to Park City for a training seminar right after Labor Day. We were both so excited we were practically jumping up and down. My mom is joining me there to help take care of the baby, and she’s so excited she could burst. My point? Utah is where people who live in Wisconsin go for an exotic vacation. That’s how exciting my state is.
Weirdness. I am going to a young and quick Mormon wedding (well reception…obviously) today.
You have pretty much convinced me to never ever visit or go within 1,000 miles of Utah.
I guess I’d go though, if you bought me a beer.
Wait.
Do they have beer there?????
