Life

Rebekah hasn't written in a while, so I'm going to pick up her slack.

Last week I spent five days in Colorado on vacation. On the flight out I had two turkey dogs because my neighbor offered me his after looking at the list of ingredients. I chose not to read the packaging and to eat them as fast as I could. I had not noticed that only one bathroom was open and that the line was growing. That was my first mistake.

On the bright side, I resisted temptation. In the back of all the seats, Direct TV had installed personal TV's that one could watch with the swipe of a credit card ($6). For the beginning of the flight, I had a bright screen begging me to enter the world of live TV. I found the off button thankfully.

I stayed in Marblle: population 85, dentists 0. As much as I was hoping for wild mountain people, the residents were all quite normal. One thing I immediately noticed was the pleasant smell of mountain air, probably the aspen trees. Coming from NJ, it was nice although to be fair its reputation is exaggerated.

When I got back home, life returned to normal. Some things I had been saving were conspicuously missing, and my room had been rearranged. I didn't say anything.
