Tonight!

Tonight was so fantastic! I spent the day straight lounging and felt like a slug... I decided to head to Boulder for the evening to see my brother's new house and do some night climbing!! Yeah!

Driving into Boulder.

Spot Westy in the purple. Flagstaff.
Pretty boulder.

Westy's really psyched to climb in this one!! After I climbed 20ish ft. of slab. Fun!

Boulder.

Lowball traverse. [That means low to the ground]

Thumbs up.

My first and fav. climbing shoes. After Flagstaff we headed to The Spot and snuck into a bouldering competition. Just in time for finals. Girls on left, boys on right.

Dude was wearing a cowboy hat.

And this is what I came home to!! The boy's been workin hard. We have a library!!!

Last night!!

Last night was incredible. You know those shows where you feel like a different person afterwards; the ones that will stay with you forever? I saw Wovenhand with Jeremiah last night and I feel like a new person today. The night was somewhat bizaar because the opener for Wovenhand was the WORST band I've ever seen in my life. The worst. Ever. So, anyway, here are the three pictures I took.

The Bluebird is a great venue. An old movie theater. The most intense lead. Chills.

Vent Sesh.

I hate. I hate dust. I hate dust so much. Leaving dust footprints in every room I go. Cleaning the same floors a million times. I hate clutter. I hate dirty things. I hate smelling stain and polyurethane ALL the time. I hate things that don't match. I hate things that don't match. I hate things that don't match. I hate the new lights, I hate the old lights. I hate cleaning up messes. I hate having shit all over the table. I hate having shit all over everything everywhere. Piles. Piles everywhere. I hate tools. I hate dents. I hate laundry. I hate my neighborhood. I hate homework. I hate worrying. I hate worrying about what I'm going to be when I grow up. I hate worrying about my body even though I've lost weight. I hate that that'll never go away. I hate things that are left unfinished. I hate not having enough energy to fix everything. I hate investing so much hate in something that has nothing to do with me. I hate the smell of downtown Denver. I hate that stink of hobo, car exhaust, restaurant grease, nastiness. I'll never not hate that smell. I hate not having all my close friends near. I hate not talking to Eva, Meredith, Lynde, and Jackie like I used to. I hate being cold. I hate my hair. I hate being wrong. I hate when things don't go my way. I hate lingering fights. Fights that never go away. I hate unnecessary confrontations. I hate feeling like I don't have enough time to go visit my brother in Boulder. I hate that I don't climb right now. I hate not having a grocery store close. I hate mean people. I hate when I'm mean. I hate stinky people. I hate when I'm stinky.

Alright. I've run out of steam. That last part about being stinky just made me laugh. My life is great but I've been all kinds of irked lately. Hopefully I'll feel better soon. Smell ya later!!

Tis the (wedding) season....

Oh, weddings. I've been to a lot of weddings this year, including two this month, and I couldn't be happier. It'll seem weird when a lot of my close friends start getting married but tagging along with Jeremiah has been quite a treat. J and I headed to Utah in June for his brother's wedding and we had a great time! We stopped in Moab on the way back for some hikin' which was also quite eppiiiiiccccccc.

On the way to Utah.

Jeremiah and I stayed in a rented condo with the rest of his family and we all went to the zoo the first day.
With Cailyn and Eli.

And Jaime!Pretty.

Taking a break with Eli.

Little man.

Merry-go.

Miss these kids so much!

The next day, after the ceremony.

Best man speech. Typical Jeremiah, cutie.

Father of the bride speech.

Everybody!! J, Me, Jethro, Sima, Cailyn, Jaime, Eli, Jeff, and Debbie.

The girls.

The bouquet.

More pictures from Utah to come!!

Flashback 2...

More pictures and memories from Jeremiah's first trip to Iowa. Out!! With the Maher boys and Mike+Addy.
Jeremiah pictures at my dad's house. Favorite.

I Love Crosswords. Two black eyes. Dad and Jeremiah at the junkyard... Not how I planned to spend my vacation. Blistering heat. This was better. The Haunted Book Shop. Capitol building. This night was insane. Esack, Tanner, Pat. Say no to free greygoose on the rocks. Had to visit Panch. The state of Nebraska hates me. Horrendous storm and speeding ticket on the way home!!!!! YAH!!
