an update

so it seems I've forgotten about this little blog. with so many forms of social media these days it's hard to remember where I posted last.

sidenote - does it drive anyone else crazy when you see something on Instagram and then again on Facebook and then on Twitter and then Pinterest and then a blog? makes me feel like a crazy person because I think, "I've seen this already" but then I remember, I did, because I just checked Instagram 10 minutes ago (maybe I'm on social media too much?...) I'm all about keeping it separate unless it's just too awesome not to share with everyone

anyway, just thought I'd give a few updates

I live in Sandy now with two great roommates Sarah and Abby. they were totally random, but it's worked out very well. Abby is getting married in November so we'll get a new girl and she's awesome as well. it's so nice to have good roommates especially when they were so random (friend of a friend of a friend of a friend type deal)


I've gone to two races for The Color Run, Ft. Lauderdale and Orlando. Traveling is a lot of work, but it's also a lot of fun and rewarding even when you wake up at 3:30 am on race day. I have a whole new respect for our traveling team, the do some serious work! My regular job is working in our international department

I also went down to Moab with some work friends and up to Kennewick, WA to see my friend Breck this summer for some quick vacations.

 Delicate Arch

 Columbia River

 The Gorge Amphitheater 

I bought a new car in August - a 2010 Nissan Rogue. I loved my little Honda, but decided it was time for something a little newer and nicer. I'm loving my heated seats as we've had a bit of cooler weather around here. It's also nice to drive on the freeway without the car shaking the whole time.



I wish I could say I was dating, but that's not really happening. I dated a kid for a short time in the summer, but it just wasn't meant to be. Poor kid was good about putting up with my crazy side though. And in true Kristen fashion, we had a pretty funny breakup. It went something like this:
me - so this whole dating thing just isn't really working for me
him - yeah...I agree
(short, disjointed, distracted conversation about not being awkward then walk to the door)
him - guess I don't have to walk you to your car anymore
me - nope, guess not. see ya!

one of these days I'll figure this dating thing out. until then, we'll just keep laughing at my funny dating stories

I played on my ward softball team over the summer (I even got a few base hits) and I'll be playing both volleyball and indoor soccer this fall. I feel like I'm just being so sporty these days, but it's fun even if I'm terrible at softball and soccer. Luckily, I can redeem myself with volleyball

so there are some quick updates on the past few months. until next time...

That breakup sounds familiar...
