Hey kittens. Good week for you? Bizarre week for me.

First, the good:

We went to Colorado this past weekend to see one of my best friends get married. It was a beautiful garden ceremony followed by a lovely reception at their home and my friend looked absolutely radiant. There were storm clouds over the rose garden while they said their vows but not a drop of rain fell – there’s got to be some kind of good luck in there, no? It was wonderful.

The best part of the trip for BB, however, was the Cadillac we rented for the weekend. I’m not kidding. He was blissfully, deliriously happy. Happier even than the married couple. I think BB was born 72 years old and has remained so ever since.

He really IS cute, even if he could be my grandfather

We also went to Boulder to visit my cousin and had an awesome trip up into the mountains to see “his babies” – the giant sharp rock faces he climbs several times a week. I almost threw up on the ride up there from the steep scariness. Boulder’s beautiful though and if you’ve never been I highly suggest putting it on your list.

Next, the bad:

I had my job interview last Thursday and on the one hand, it was bad because I kept forgetting to answer half of their two- and three-part questions. Who does that? Why make one question 7 questions all put together? It’s confusing, and frankly I consider it mean. My presentation went well, I thought, and so now I’m just waiting for the phone to ring, like a dorky high school girl on a Friday night.

Finally, the ugly:

The ugly is so ugly, I really don’t want to talk about it. But I will say this: I’m not the only crazy I know, and I’m not the only one bad stuff happens to all the time. Doesn’t make crazy shit better though; crazy shit is still crazy shit.

Overheard this weekend:

“My name is Cowboy and I’ll be riding you to your destination.” – Airport shuttle

“Up here we call them ‘Trustafarians’ or ‘Weed Worshippers.’ Same thing, really.” – Of Boulder’s “counter-culture”

“Would you look at that. Her dad actually looks nice today! Good thing, since it’s her wedding.” – Old man with diapers and obviously-malfunctioning hearing aids, during the wedding ceremony
