I went to Colorado
Thursday, May 18th, 2006So I went to Colorado last weekend for my sisters graduation…….and to see friends! My flight was so EARLY! I arrived in Denver on Thursday at the sunny hour of 8am. What was I thinking? I spent the day walking around Pearl st. running some errands. I forgot that it was a weekday and that most of my friends would be working. But I had fun. It was such a beautiful day. PERFECT actually! I went and had a few drinks Bodie at this Mexican restaurant and just caught up with each other and reminisced about old times! I went to a party that evening where a bunch of my old ensemble buddys were hanging out. I was so nice to see them again. There was a bunch of yummy Ethiopian food there. Mmmmm……
Friday I woke up early again to go to my sisters graduation (the large one at Folsom that I didn’t want to go to, but made a deal with my sister that I would go since she picked me up from the airport) I went early with her BF to save seats for the rest of my family. About 15min. into it my brother and I decided to leave and go get some breakfast at Burnt Toast on the Hill. We called my mom after eating and it was still going on! UGH Austin and I decided to go to the art gallery on campus to waste time but apparently we didn’t waste enough time so we went to the area where my sisters small graduation would be for her department and saved seats there and watched episodes of Lost on my Ipod! haha. Her small graduation was nice and short! I liked that. I went to lunch with Bodie and Whitney.(not my sister) I miss Bodie so much and Whitney is so cool. My sister and a few of her friends had a party at a local park but I had to bow out early. No sleep = a tired Megan. I took a LOOOOONG nap! That evening I went and saw my friends Adjei and Alidu perform an african dance piece and then hit up Red Fish for some salsa dancing with Adjei. He is the best dance partner because he can make ANYONE look like they are a awesome dancer! haha
Saturday I went and had my hair cut with Cory. I wish she lived in NY. ha She always makes my hair look so good! It was so good to see her again! I went to breakfast with a still drunk Juan Verde, my sister and John.(sisters BF) I love John Green. He always makes me laugh…..there was a point during breakfast that my sister and I were laughing so hard we were not breathing and I was crying! I LOVE that! tack some years on to my life please! For the rest of the day I pretty much hung out at Greg’s house and watched his dog Ice pick the heads off the dandelions! so weird. I feel like there was something else I did…. I can’t remember. I headed home to my parents that evening. I basically went through all my old stuff that night. I found some old pictures from when I was in elementary school. I have the most hideous haircut..hahaha I basically had a mullet. it was so GROSS! maybe I’ll post it. I can’t believe I had my hair that way.
Sunday I just lounged around and went shopping for some shoes for the wedding I’m in next month! (SO EXCITED)My flight home sucked I was stuck on a plane with a bunch of boys 8-10yrs who apparently came to Denver for a Chess tournament. Every single one had a VERY LARGE trophy and they delayed us for a 1/2 hour because they couldn’t figure out where to put them all. They were running all over the plane playing their Gameboys and PSP’s and laptops with virtual chess games. it was hell. haha
it was good to be back. i miss the mountains
