An Update.

Well. Its officially 2011. I can actually say that I am excited for this year to begin and bring on new adventures. But first, I must update you on the past couple of weeks. Let me tell you, I've had quite a few adventures to share. Lets start with the blind date that did not go so well. Well, it did go all right, but my blind date was... a little awkward. I will not give the name, for fear that he may find me in the blogging world. Thank goodness he hasn't added me as a friend on facebook. Poor soul. Anyway. Let me begin.
He picked me up and was ridiculously early; I had just gotten home from work and had just finished doing my hair. So he had to wait a few minutes. No big deal. But I hate people waiting for me so I had to hurry the makeup process and you girls all know that if you hurry something that takes time, it just doesn't feel right. But whatever. Its all good. Anyway, Its the night of the really big storm, December 28, I think it was. So getting to the rest of the party waiting for us at Thanksgiving Point took over an hour. On the car ride up he seemed relatively normal. A few little quirky remarks here and there, so that was OK. I'm finally starting to feel comfortable around him and then bam. The unthinkable happens. We're just about to delve into our food at the Deli at Thanksgiving Point and he wants to say a prayer over the food. We're in public! With a ton of people around! Hahaha me and my friend Bailey just look at each other and close our eyes in lack of a witty response. Ben says the prayer and my date is happy. Yeah. I'm all for praying, but that normally happens in the privacy of my own home...or in my heart, if you will. And then you can only imagine how the rest of the date went. Super awkward. And to make matters worse, Ben gets into an accident because the roads are icy and you can barely see like ten feet in front of us. That for sure was the weirdest date I have ever been on. But I did have fun...

Next exciting adventure. New Years Eve. Best ever. Me, Bailey, and Jocelyn, and also Ben, had a blast. I'll just give you a little taste of what we did.... First, Virgin Pina Coladas at the bar, second, took Ben to a random party thrown by a bunch of BYU students. Stayed there for like five minutes and refused to play a "party game." Who knows what that was about. Third, got our party on at Sp^rk lounge and rang in the New Year. Fourth, Picked Ben back up and went to Denny's. Fifth, went to Pirate Island for like five minutes and was given the stank eye by a bunch of Latinos. We were apparently not welcome on the dance floor because as soon as we walked in, they all sat down. That was our cue to leave. By then it was 3:00 in the morning. I'd say it was a successful night for sure! My blog can probably not give our night justice because we really had one of the best nights in a really long time. Here's hoping that 2011 will be fantastic. Peace out monkeys :0)
