Lately

I have been having a hard time sitting down and reading. I always read before I go to bed, but have only been able to get in a chapter or two, which is making it impossible to finish this book.

Don't get me wrong, I'm loving every word of it, but I have recently started watching The Office....and I can't get enough of it. I have fallen in love with Jim Halpert and his crazy facial expressions.

I can't wait to see what happens with him and Pam.

I know that he proposes, they get married, and have a baby.

I have recently taken up trail running. I've been meaning to take a video of me running down this mountain with my dog in front of me. We have so much fun! I never thought I would be caught dead saying that running is fun, but trail running is such a great way to exercise. I'm in the beautiful Rocky Mountains chasing my dog down a really awesome trail through green trees. I am slightly afraid that I'm going to trip on something and roll down the mountain, but other than that, it's GREAT!

I did make a mistake last Saturday. I went on a pretty intense two hour hike...but the mistake was that I went at 1pm. By that time it had to have been about 90 degrees in Park City. I specifically remember about half way through the hike, saying outloud, "Wow, it's hot today!" I should have turned around at that point, but ended up going for another hour or so. By the time I got home, I had an excrutiating headache, and water and Advil weren't helping. I ended up vomiting, and I wouldn't be suprised if it was heat exhaustion. I don't think I'll go hiking in the middle of the day like that again. It was fun while it lasted.

Last night I went out to dinner with my friend, Whitney. She's actually my brother's best friend, but she has become a very good family friend over the years. She is currently living in Boston, but was home visiting family for a few weeks. We went to the Wasatch Brewery up on Main Street. She had tried a really great beer a few weeks earlier and told me how amazing it was, so I had to try it. It was probably the most amazing beer I've ever had. It's called Wasatch Jalapeno Cream Ale. Only Wasatch Brewery would come up with a jalapeno beer. It was DELICIOUS! You can taste the jalapeno as soon as the beer enters your mouth, and then as it's going down your throat, you get a little bit of a kick, and then....beer. It's amazing. I highly recommend this beer!

I'm planning on trail running this evening, so hopefully I'll remember my camera so I can take a video running down the mountain behind Babs. Hopefully I won't eat shit on the way....although it would make for a great video!
