Mormon-Ville Day 2

dress: Zara, sweater: Express, leggings: H&M, shoes: Sperry Top-Sider from Nordstrom, accessories: glasses necklace from Charlotte Russe
Friday we met with Lindy's mentor for coffee one last time and then drove around Orem looking at apartments for a bit before we drove into SLC.

We had plans to get there, relax a bit and then head to the hotel fitness center, but we both fell asleep to crappy TV and napped before we decided on some good Mexican food for dinner (mole enchiladas--yum!).  We had going out plans but ended up at a pretty low-key martini bar after dinner.  There was a bar on the top floor of our hotel, Sky Bar, but we read some bad reviews on Yelp and decided against going up there.  But, of course, when we got home the skanks were out in FULL FORCE.  Man, there were some slutty little outfits heading up to the Sky Bar.

We then packed and got ready to leave early the next day to head home...

Mormon-Ville Day 1

tee: Bellatrix from Wizarding World of Harry Potter, tank: Costco, jeans: Levi's, shoes: Sperry Top-Siders from Nordstrom
Well, although our drive from SLC to Provo was snowy and surrounded by low clouds, the next day opened up bright, sunny and the mountains were out in full force!  It was absolutely beautiful.  The clouds had obscured how close they actually were, but on Thurs it was awesome.

Lindy went and did some looking at the actual school and talked with the head of the school and her mentor and then we worked out in the crappy little gym in the la quinta before we went shopping (I dressed up my little barbie, Lindy, and helped her spend some monies on great new clothes) and I kept myself from buying too much (a new swimsuit top from Target, a purse and glasses necklaces), which I was very proud of. And then Lindy noticed that with my new necklace and tee, it could do THIS:

HAHAHAHAHA! Bellatrix in glasses!
We then went and caught a movie (Hanna, supes good and very different. Plus Saoirse Ronan is ridic good!) and ate at a great Italian restaurant in Orem (the little town next to Provo where Lin is probs gonna live if she goes there).

Jet Setter

tee: Pitaya, tank: Costco, pants: Jolt from Nordstrom, boots: Blowfish from DSW, sweater: (unpictured) Express
So, getting ready to have the seestor pick me up and head to Mormon-ville!  Three days of seestor time and figuring out what she is gonna be up to next year.  Hopefully, there are things to do in Provo & SLC as well.  It would be nice to find a bar or something... but that might just be a pipe dream.

Glad it's all working out though.  Apartment is mostly clean and I'm all packed and garbage is taken out. Seestor should be on her way to the apt and then we head to SeaTac.  Two trips in 3 weeks is kinda crazy!  Good thing I like to travel, that's what I have to say.

Here we go!

Surrender to Pressure

sweatshirt: Lululemon, capris: Nike, shoes: Sperry Top-Siders from Nordstrom
Took a little break from craziness yesterday and just made stew and hungout and cleaned my apartment a little bit.  Ya know, just before I have to repack and get ready for tomorrow's flight to Salt Lake with the seestor. Just a little three-day jaunt to the southwest to Mormon-town to help the seestor decide about grad school.

Today was full of yoga, laundry, tanning and even more cleaning.  Yesh!  This getting ready to go on trips thing is hard.

So much fun at (what I learned is actually called) Bill's Bash! So, so, so, so, so loverly to see a number of my Threepenny peeps (John, Julie Jerrick--my J's--, Ali, Stephanie, Hugh, Matt) and just get to enjoy the love and support of an auction for a theatre that I have had the pleasure to have been a part of.  Everyone was so great and I really hope that Thea and I get to do our Mad Med party!  Betty and Joan here we come!

Basically spent the whole day running into people I know and love (even on our short hour-long dinner break Ali and I ran into no less than SIX theatre people we majorly hearted!)!  Talk about a theatre hot spot!

I now have a tentative date with Ali for Sat night too--HOT!  Love my peeps!  And just wanna see more and more and more and more of them!  I miss you all (P Lennon you are included because I need a date with you soon.  And I know you need West Wing... Just sayin')

The Deadliest

sweatshirt: Lululemon, pants: Jolt from Nordstrom, boots: Zigi Soho from DSW
Did CatchCon today and dear lord!  I totes forgot how exhausting it is to be on my feet dealing with ornery opinionated people all day, but man did I love it!  I have missed dealing with people and helping to let them breathe and calm down when shizz is going crazy (or in some instances, just not the way they want).

I am supes happy to be home! And sitting on my ass watching Ally McBeal and doing nothing.

Tomorrow is Seattle Shakes' Bard Bash, so I have rehearsal in the afternoon and performing and mingling tomorrow night.
