*sigh of relief*

ahhh... i made it! what, you may ask? well, i'll tell you what i made it through:

-31 pgs. of term papers, a presentation, 60-pg. journal and final exam
-59 hrs at the library in only 6 days, 53 of which were with a crazy person
-3-4 hrs of sleep every night for the last week
-all of these stages:
-packing for 10 days in only 1 hour
-airport security
-flight to denver
-my parents making oogly eyes at each other when we landed
-drive to ft.collins

and now for the sigh of relief... i'm on vacation! it's perfect! it's just what the doctor ordered. today was oober low key; my cousin made us phenomenal waffles (secret ingredient: baby food instead of oil) for breakfast, and we spent the rest of the day either eating, drinking, or shopping. (kat, i already got your pwesent! and other friends, keep an eye out for a postcard next week!)

so here's the breakdown: pic #1-me, mom, dad and carol in an airstream, pic#2- dad&i ready for our first day in colorado, pic#3- at new belgium brewery, in ft.collins, pic#4, 5, 6- at what may very well be my FAVORITE restaurant ever. you pick all the ingredients yourself, from meat to veggies to sauce, and then they grill it up for ya, and you eat til your hearts content. see last photo- that would be 'til heart's content'. case and point... if you ever have the chance to eat at HuHot mongolian grill, do it. Do it!

Tomorrow we are going to Rocky Mountain Nat'l Park. I can't wait!!! More to come... Thanks for tolerating my craziness the last couple of weeks. I will come back a new woman, lol.

-Happy in Colorado
