things that are making me laugh at the moment:

* this blog 

(even though it's no longer in use... along with being completely useless, 

I laugh out loud by myself when reading it)

* This is one of my favorite moments on Modern Family from the first season,
I love Phil, he is so funny.


SIDE NOTE. Adrien Brody is the most attractive man I have laid eyes on. I know that's a pretty bold statement but to-each-his-own, right? My good friends and I watched The Brothers Bloom last night. 

I can't get over how I think he looks and acts (extremely classy, funny, and a bit reserved) the perfect combination.

Alright...
drum roll please.


I'm back in Salt Lake after a wonderful trip to Tucson AZ.
It was absolutely amazing to be at home, I'm learning that there is no better place
and finally...
after 24 years (yes, that's how old I am)
I'm becoming better acquainted with my family and sometimes (sometimes is only a slight hesitation) they can be the greatest.

I have some new goals that I'm going to try to attend to (I know, boring) but really. these are much needed life changes.
For example: everything. Halloween is in a week and a half and I am clueless on what to be, maybe a character from Clueless? ((I would rather die.) o man... I must be in a feisty mood this evening... it stems from traveling.) P.S. Traveling IS one of my many favorite things, it involves people watching and listening to music.

We have a show tomorrow night and if you'd like to come it's at Kilby Court in the evening.

My heart skips a beat when I come out of work and my car is still in the parking lot... I seem to have the brain of an 80 year old and I usually, more often then not, leave my keys in the ignition. SO, if you need a car, figure out where I work and it's yours provided that I was a ditz in the morning. I'm such a dork.

ANYWAY.

"I love the Smiths"

... but seriously.

I do.

Billy Zero

I don't know if any of you have seen The Tracey Fragments but it is the most depressing movie I have ever seen. Don't be confused. This isn't a romance movie. It is a very very (very) intense film and I would only reccomend it for it's style of film because frankly after watching this film you feel terrible... beyond terrible. BUT after you get through all of that there is... Billy Zero. A character who may be the source of the whole plot, the whole story line, the fall of the lead character, everything and he is only in it for a short bit...

this is only if you look into things as far as I do. 

For some reason I've been thinking about him today.

 

...it might be because of a band we played with yesterday, 

their lead singer looked parallel to Billy, 

his style, confidence, and quiet sense of charm.

Eat your heart out Tracey.

Thanks Bowbita for posting below.

We recorded 4 songs tonight (our band name= BearClause).

I'm not going to lie, it was really fun

and having these songs recorded will be an accomplishment.

We are on the radio tomorrow.

Playing live.

My best friend Olivia is heeeerrrreee

to save the day!

(I may say many people are my best friend... 

but thats because I have the most amazing wonderful friends out there)

I'm so very content and happy.

If I could be any female bassist this is who I would choose:

Paz Lenchantin playing in The Entrance Band. 

She. is. AMAZING.

Hi. This is Kara's young sister, Christina. From Tucson.

Question: How magical would it be to live in a tree house?
I have been infatuated with the idea for quite some time.
To just live out in the middle of the wilderness sounds like a dream.

 

 

 

Though my father almost ruined nature for me by constantly taking me on hikes and great outdoor camping adventures throughout my childhood,
I still seem to have a secret bond with the open air and a sense of serenity.

In fact, while writing this passage,
I have found myself gone into a daze of how magnificent it would be to live without the worldly things and possessions the average person owns. I see myself with a deep self-realization book and sipping on some hot tea out in the wild,
where I can work on arts, crafts, and trinkets.

...At least for a week or two that is.
