Travel Babble

Well what do you know! Wearing skinny jeans to the law firm work just cuz they’re black is completely acceptable (on occasion, of course, I’m sure).

I went to the dentist today for the first time in three years. My teeth look absolutely immaculate; my gums look like swollen plums. Kinda like these lovely women.

I would like to also say that my dental hygienist, Debbie (you have to say her name with a mocking face), has been my dental hygienist for as long as I can remember. Every time I go to the dentist, I hope she’s gotten fired. I almost got up out of the chair today and told her “Never mind” on the appointment because she is so rough. She is such a masculine-handed lady that always asks awkward questions and wants to be best friends. She also said that I drank too much coffee.

I spent last night discussing the intricacies of dreams, UFO’s, the theory of relativity and the breaking of sound barriers. It was an ideal night full of interesting conversations that were discussed in a very scientific, excited and fascinated fashion. I was beside myself that someone would oblige the nerd side of me in conversation; just a day in the life. I love my friends.

• Also, I looked into bus and plane tickets today. To random places. I’ve always said that one of the main things on my bucket list is to get my passport and just fly anywhere on a whim—not tell anyone where I’m going… Just leave for a little while and get to explore something on my own, perhaps, and plan it as I go. So I looked into prices today. Round-trip bus tickets within a four hour radius is about $80. Plane tickets to the northern side of the States is roughly $200. And anything like Costa Rica, Paris, etc. is at least $800, which is slightly out of my price range... Honestly, I’d like to visit the Northwest at some point and will probably end up doing that. I want to take a bus someday (on the bucket list) as well as fly by myself (also on the bucket list). Now that I have two jobs, the idea isn’t quite so far fetched. I mean, if not now then when? I’m free-spirited; this is the only life I get to lead. I want to see everything. Believe it.
