Social de-evolution appears complete

it would appear that mine and todd's unofficial new year's resolution is going to be wicked amounts of traveling.

All of this is going to be accomplished whenever I'm not in school, making it a bit more interesting as far as the scheduling goes.

March is going to be an off-the-beaten-path trip to Santa Fe via Buena Vista (two of my favorite local-ish places that Todd has never been to) during my spring break. We're going to stay one night in Buena Vista at a funky little cabin haven that, before being transformed to a motel-esque place, was where my parents called home after they got married and moved to Colorado before re-locating to Denver. So I'm kind of stoked about that. I've stayed there once in my life and it was hilarious. It's smack in the middle of town so everything is within walking distance, including the infamous DAIRY KING (yes, KING) which is just a good good time. And there's a sweet park close to the King. So that's awesome. Santa Fe holds more memories for me than I could include here, but some of what I'm going to expose Todd too included the Jackalope, this crazy Indian restaurant complete with belly dancer, downtown Santa Fe, Governor's Palace, and if it's still there and I can find it, the wicked-insane flea market. WEWT!

May is a long weekend trip to Vegas after classes are done for the Spring. We inadvertently won a trip to Vegas (it's a long story that doesn't bear repeating) so we're hoping that it's not all a farce and that we can actually go. Maybe we'll meet up with Crazy Cousin Jackie, as that happens to be her apparent-favorite place on earth (seems like she's there every other weekend...doesn't hurt that she's friends with about a billion different bands). Todd and I went to Vegas a couple years ago in February. It was pretty chilly, to say the least. And we went with my parents and weren't yet married (obviously) so we were staying in different hotels and it was just kind of total madness. This time will be a little easier, both on our feet and our wallets.

Sometime in the summer, we'll be heading to Boston. That was one of our honeymoon options, but decided against it since we wanted to relax on our honeymoon and wanted to see everything that Boston had to offer. Boston + Honeymoon did NOT = relaxing. So we'll be hitting a bunch of the sites and taking in a Red Sox game at Fenway (sorry Rockies, but when in Rome....) and probably watching another game at a pub just so that we can get raucous and crazy like the rest of Boston during a Sox game.

In between all of that, we'll be going to SLC to hang with Todd's parents, sister (+ family) and maybe his brother (if he's in town...we're trying to co-ordinate that). I might try to take a jaunt to Seattle to hang with my sister for a bit (maybe in the summer this time...it was cold and rainy when I was there for her bday last year) and take in more of Queen Anne's, amazing coffee shops, and maybe try to actually hike it to the coast without wearing high heels and carrying a java (again, long story, but pretty funny).

Man, I love to travel.
Maybe next year, we'll be in London for the summer...who knows?!?!
