Mate y un Asadito

Last weekend was probably one of the funnest I've had in a long time. My roommates and I along with Dani and her roommates all got together for a nice parrillada in Provo Canyon! We stocked up on meat and...meat...and everything else, and of course brought some mate with us:

First time heating up the water over a wood fire, perfect temp...

Highlight of the evening was being able to do a lot of this to this person...:)

This was the NEXT best thing!

Innocent? Ignorant? I don't know, but don't do it :)

This story is unbelievable. It seems like such a basic scam that we usually brush away, but look at this entire video and see how complex these thieves can get.

Thanks for the Surprise Dani!

Dani gave me the best surprise last night. So on top of me trying to figure out how I’m going to deal with the $2,500 of repairs on my car, I found out even more tragic news: Dani is going to a work retreat up in the mountains and will be gone Friday-Saturday. I was distraught at the idea that I would be spending this cold, wet weekend, alone. BUT, all worries disappeared when she surprised me with the BOURNE DVD TRILOGY!! She knew I would be devastated, so she gave me the next best thing, Jason Bourne. Needless to say this weekend will be a Bourne marathon weekend. Anyone is welcome to come over and join me. THANK YOU DANIELLE!!

Thank you Enterprise Rent-A-Car!

Last night I had a Christmas miracle happen in my life.  So Dani and I were driving back home from a ridiculously fun day with the entire family, both in St. George and West Jordan.  We couldn't wait to get home and go to bed.  Welllllll......we were 2 blocks away from home when I noticed there was a car trailing close behind us.  By the time I realized that the shape of the headlights belonged to a crown victoria and before I could react, the police lights went on.  I thought "oh infierno, another ticket."  I hadn't gotten a ticket in a million years, and was all I needed to ruin the night.  The officer came up to us and took my license.  I also mentioned to him that our car was a rental from ENTERPRISE.  He glanced over our rental contract and took my license back to his pig mobile.  He came back a few minutes later and just said “ok you’re clear, you can go.” YES. I DIDN’T GET A TICKET.  I guess he was just driving around checking license plates, and when he checked mine it came up on his computer weird because it was a rental.  Needless to say it was quite the experience.  Thank you Enterprise, for letting me have a real life experience that scared me enough to not speed for another 5-7 years.
