Happy Anniversary

Our anniversary was June 17th so the weekend after we went to Park City. We stayed in a hotel that we chose off of hotels.com based on the fact that it had a racquetball court. We disregarded all the negative comments on the website because of the r-ball court. Bad idea! It wasn't horrible, but the negative comments were not unfounded, as I pretended they were. It smelled like old people, there were random ants in the bath and bed, the shower head didn't work, and you actually had to pay to use r-ball court. But we didn't care. You stop noticing the old smell after being in the room a bit and the bath was so comfy it was great to use. And we had so much fun.
We played racquetball the first night and then watched Flight of the Conchords. I planned on just reading while Kyle watched it because I had seen a clip and was bored, but it was a fantastic show! Here's a clip. I had it on my camera where you could hear Kyle laughing, even though he was trying to hold it in because he knew I was recording. But my clip wouldn't upload, you should check the show out. Here's our favorite clip: http://youtube.com/watch?v=LtfQg4KkR88

Here's a bunch of the stuff we did. We went on the zipline first, which I was terrified to do. I hate riding ski lifts. All I think of, especially when I'm with Kyle, is how I'm going to fall off and get seriously hurt or die. I felt the same way on the zipline up until they let me go. After I started going I realized it was hardly scary at all and loved it.

We went to the outlets after the zipline and after Kyle got stung by a bee. He used a trick he got off some old people's blog and stuck a penny on the sting and after no more than 10 minutes the sting was completely gone.

The outlets were kind of a let down. Almost everything was just normal price. But Kyle did find two cheap shirts and I got a new swimsuit top from Tommy Hilfiger of all places for only $10!!!
The last thing we did before going to bed our last night was swim. Well, I swam and Kyle read one of Rainey's trashy werewolf novels! Just kidding. Rainey declared that I lost rights to mocking her novels because of the latest one that I reccommended to her...I totally didn't remember those nasty scenes though! I swear it. But Kyle's loving her werewolf book and will probably swear up and down it has nothing to do with the cover picture. After swimming we watched Gone Baby Gone, which disturbed Kyle a lot, but I still love it. It is really depressing and upsetting, but it's unendingly interesting. But we watched more Flight of the Conchords after to feel better. That show is fantastic.

Happy Anniversary! We love Flight of the Conchords, too. Or however you spell it. Jeff and I have listened to their CD....have you heard it? Pretty fanstastical stuff. The "for the Ladies" song is pretty good...but the best one is "Business Time". If you haven't heard it, you must check it out. Anyway, Kelli, Happy Birthday, TOMORROW! Sorry about thinking that it was Friday. I'm a bit out of it. I'm glad you had a good Anniversary. And I'm glad Kyle like's my Mercy Thompson books...because he'd lose points if he didn't.

I think it's pretty great that Kyle likes them too, except that it means that I have to wait. No big deal about my birthday, I appreciate your birthday wishes no matter what day they come on! I'd like to hear the cd but I haven't yet. Have you heard the one I linked to? We sing it all the time!

I hadn't heard the one you linked to. It was definitely my kind of funny/awkward humor that needs to be repeated daily. Jeff and I enjoyed it, and we've been singing "business time" just for old time's sake. Have you seen all of season one? I haven't, but I've really wanted to.

Is Kermit flashing his peace? I think he's the original gangsta!
