How about a cig?

So two things for this short post.
#1: I PASSED THE UTAH BAR!!! Woot woot!! I got that letter on a Saturday and I am just stoked that I don't have to worry about it anymore. Janelle made me key lime cupcakes with white chocolate frosting as a congratulations...or she just wanted to try making these cupcakes. Either way I got cake! So I was happy. They were amazing!! Thanks Janelle!

#2: So I've been frustrated with the whole dating thing but all is not lost everyone! I was in Harmon's a few weeks ago at like 11:00 at night. I was walking over to the milk and I walked in front of this guy I apologized and walked over to the milk and I turn around and this same guy was there. He asked me where I was from then said he was from Yugoslavia. He was like 40. He said he wanted to take me out that night which I politely declined. He was persistent though. He asked about Sunday night and Monday and I said no. So then he wants my number. I give him a fake one. So I am about to leave and he says, "I have white van in parking lot. I wait for you and we have cigarette." Then he left. So see everyone I'm not totally hopeless!

Late edition #3: My dear cousin Kayla reminded me of another time I had the opportunity to meet some people from the Slavic region. Kayla and I went to Park City to hang out one day in the summer of '08 (I only know that because I had to find a picture and that's what the date was). We were driving down the canyon and I pulled to the side of the road to get some pictures of the mountains. I mean really who doesn't love the Utah mountains? (Plus I was living in Florida at the time and really my friends in Florida had not seen real mountains so I needed to educate them.) So I am taking some pictures and suddenly this kid pops up from the side of the road like some mountain goat! He was picking wild flowers. So I got to talking to him and his brother. They were from Russia and were in Utah doing some construction work. Their names were Vlad and Michael I think. But they ended up sharing part of their wild flowers with me and I got a picture with them. See I have a way with the Slavs. Woot woot!
And look! Vlad has a cig too! So I have a way with Slavic's and smokers...good to know.

Do you ever wonder?

For those faithful readers that are married this still might apply to you. So I was looking back on past relationships, those people I dated only once or twice and other relationships and I thought "what was I thinking?!"Now nothing against these guys because the majority are great guys but looking back I am often glad things never worked out for various reasons. I wouldn't have been good for them or them for me that type of thing. This got me thinking though...and the thought that entered my mind was "Am I even dateable?" What makes one dateable anyway? I guess all I can do is try to be the person I want to be a little more everyday and if that makes me dateable or not doesn't matter as long as I am happy.

I haven't done quote Tuesday for a while but this was a good one. So my dad is a pretty avid swimmer and lately I've been having some lower back issues and I asked him if it was because of the swimming...this is what he says to me.
Dad:"Maybe. Or it could be your birthing hips are coming in!"
Aaahh...what? Well leave it at that...
