Sarah's Brain

I had a conference today in Syracuse. It was a boring conference and then I had to drive 2 hours to get home! So, in order to keep myself from going crazy or getting angry I let my brain wander and I came up with some fantastic observations/things I'm grateful for. In no particular order I present "The Musings of Sarah's Brain during 2 hours stuck in traffic..."

1. The stretch of I-15 between Bountiful and Salt Lake City must be a very special section of road because it is always under construction. That means it gets a lot of attention. Wow, I feel so special to have been able to spend so much time on that asphalt.

2. My car is really pretty.

3. I'm a hot babe in my car.

4. I l-o-v-e love Coke Slurpees.

5. I'm grateful I don't drink caffeine. My whole body feels fuzzy and my eyes feel like they are swimming (Coke Slurpee).

6. Costco is a great place. What's not to love? There are free samples on Saturdays (you can practically eat a whole meal) and there's LOTS of food. Mmmm.... food

7. Edward Cullen.... Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

8. Music is good. I got through 2 whole CDs on my way home

9. Singing in the car is a good release. I went for about a year not feeling happy enough to sing in the car. Today I didn't care who was watching.

10. Cute boys= something nice to look at

11. I love that my car has air conditioning.

12. I'm grateful it only took me 20 minutes to figure out why the air wasn't coming out cold (make sure the dial is turned all the way to cool and not in between cool and warm.)

13. Bathrooms are a good thing (Coke Slurpee).

14. There is pretty much nothing better than bare feet.

15. I'm grateful that police officers use their lights to butt ahead of the line. It just proves that no one is perfect and everyone takes advantage of certain powers that they have. (Example: I just have to say please and smile at my principal and I almost always get what I want.)

16. My summer can start now that today is over. WAHOO!!

17. Waverunners are just so fun.

18. I am grateful that truck didn't hit me when I changed lanes really fast.

19. The rain has made the mountains really green. Usually they are brown.

20. I like living in Utah, but there is still the chance that I might venture to other places at some point, just to try it.

21. I'm becoming fond of the color orange.

22. It's probably a good thing I have no desire to drive a motorcycle, I can't even walk in a straight line (the treadmill is always an adventure).

23. I got to see 5 temples on my drive! Bountiful, Salt Lake, Jordan River, Draper, and Oquirrh Mountain

24. My sugar high was maintained clear until 10600 South (a piece of pie, brownie, cookie, Coke Slurpee) and I really need to exercise tonight!

25. If I got a personalized license plate my options are: SCRLETT, AWESOME2 (only because Kjersti would have AWESOME1), CNSLR (that's pretty much all I could come up with, I'm not very creative).


Welcome to a small glimpse inside my brain. There's never a dull moment in there.
