Fun Facts About Colorado
Colorado: A place where it is normal to have a strip club next to a church and where both advertise their services with neon lights.
Colorado: A place where it is not uncommon to have shuttle drivers from Thailand, Jamaica, and Afghanistan.
Colorado: Probably the only midwestern state that has more Mexican food options than barbecue (to my disappointment).

Hey Danielle, FYI
We have a wasp in our house, lurking…somewhere. It comes out randomly to ambush us and ruin our dinner and our cleaning up dinner and probably when we sleep tonight (I sleep with my mouth wide open and am terrified). Danielle, we heard that you got stung by a wasp. We did some research on how to get this creature to emerge, and it’s not looking good…

Michelle's iPod--Dominated

How Rock Stars Have Aged →
Pretty cool link to show how certain rock stars have aged over the years. Makes you wonder what you’re going to look like when you get older and appreciate how young you look now (if you are young, that is).

Fast fashion chain Forever 21 is launching a maternity line under the name Love 21 and, for right now, it will be available only in five states: Arizona, Alaska, California, Utah, and Texas. The eagle-eyed bloggers at The Gloss point out that three of those five (Arizona, California, and Texas) are on the list of states with the highest percentages of teen pregnancy. As for why Forever 21 ...
Happy Birthday, Bro
My little brother and Michelle’s adopted little brother, Zac, is, without question, one of the coolest kids around. For just turning 12, he’s got the intelligence of a high schooler (if not higher), the reading level higher than most people I went to college with, and an extensive knowledge of all things related to Greek mythology (seriously, I defy you to stump him on any question...
Those Poor Kids
I was listening to the radio today and found out that Isabella and Jacob were the top names for boys and girls in 2009. The name that had the biggest surge in popularity was Cullen. I can’t seem to find a source to corroborate this information, but I feel like I don’t even need one to believe it, and that’s the saddest part of all.

“Anton, sing it!”
Michelle has done this to me four times in the past three days. Who cares, right? Me, because I don’t know the words to these songs, so what does she want me to do, awkwardly mouth the words? This dislike stems from a concert I went to a couple months ago with friends to see the band Ludo. I went without knowing every single word to every single song, so I...
Fast Food Ice Dirtier Than Toilet Water →
As great as fast food is, these articles that come out completely ruin every little thing for me. Next thing you know, we’re gonna find out that the food is fried in BP oil.
