Returning to the nest
After an interesting October in Idaho Falls, I’m happy to say that I’ll be starting November back in the greater Seattle area! While I’d left the nest for a year, I will be returning and moving back in with the parentals. I know it sounds kind of like a step backwards, but that’s alright. I’ll [...]
A bittersweet anniversary
So, I’ve been in Idaho Falls for exactly one year (okay…one year and one day, but close enough). And after this one year, I will actually be leaving IF. Now, my last two posts (which can be read here and here) weren’t exactly what you’d call cheerful. So you can safely assume I’m not leaving for [...]
I’ll take home runs over touchdowns any day
Last night, I went to the Skyline High School-Idaho Falls High School football game, otherwise known as the Emotion Bowl (yes, there’s a website for this rivalry). This was literally my first football game in six years. The last game I’d been to was the homecoming game of my senior year in high school (we [...]
Table for one
As I made my way in, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Of course, I’d heard of the Snake Bite. But only by name. Prior to this, I had no clue what kind of food they served, no idea what the price range was, no inkling whether the food was even good. Before entering the [...]
My usual pre-Seattle post
Well, I’m going back home tomorrow and I cannot wait! I’ve been in a weird rut here in Idaho Falls and I think this trip will do me good. I’ll be home for a week and so I’ll try to update as much as possible. So, stay tuned!
Missing home at home, but what can you do?
I’ve been home for two days now and it’s been great but it’s really funny to see what kind of things you miss from home when you’re gone a long time. When my dad was driving me home Wednesday morning, one of the first things I noticed was how many trees there were along the [...]
Happy travels
Well, the day is finally upon us and I’m on my way home. Currently, I’m at the airport in Idaho Falls waiting to board my flight to Salt Lake City. From there, I’ll be heading home to Sea-Tac. It’s a bit backwards, I know but I really can’t help it. I had to do some ticket [...]
Storm who?
The moment I woke up this morning I knew it was going to be one of those days. Me against the elements. And goodness, was it ever. All day the wind has been howling, whistling, shrieking and every other form of personification tied to it you can think of. And wouldn’t today just be the day [...]
It just figures
Growing up in the land of perpetual rain (or at least around it), you’d expect a girl like me to know better than to keep my car windows open under the threat of showers. And for the most part I do. Back home, I’d only been caught with my windows down (not my pants, or I [...]
I’ve been here how long? Really?
Today is the six-month anniversary of my move to Idaho Falls. Exactly half a year ago, my sister and I were driving through Washington, Oregon and Idaho as I ventured off to start my new job. It’s one of those things where it doesn’t feel like it’s been that long but it also feels like I’ve [...]
