01-12-10 Cotton and Snow

Today was, well, it was an emotional day. That is code for, I kinda didn't plan out my new thing very well because I was upset for a large portion of the day. I'm fine now, it's all good, but yeah, around 8pm I started to panic, what the hell did I do that was new?! Freaking out and being upset is definitely not new for me. Then Curtis called as I was stress eating a tub of cotton candy that really DID look remarkably like cotton and asked "Can you mapquest the drive from here to Sundance and see how long it would take?" See, we've gone to the Sundance Film Festival for the last two years and we have always met new people, learned a lot and have seen some great films. This year as I've mentioned, we are kinda broke so, it was looking like we couldn't go. I was bummed about this. Seriously bummed. (though that was not why I was upset today) But we had talked about maybe driving instead of flying and just going for a couple of days instead of our usual week. This request of Curtis's cheered me up and I found out it is only about a 10 hour drive. We're still not sure if we will have the time to go, but we're considering it. As I plotted out our as yet still not certain trip I ate the entire tub of cotton candy. And well, I've never planned a road trip to Utah before and I have never eaten an entire tub of (really GOOD) cotton candy before either. So, that's gonna have to suffice for my "new thing" for that day.
