Thank goodness it's April!

Yay for haircuts! My hair looks fabulous right now...I didn't really change it that much..the color is the same...but I got it more layered and I look fabulous. But so far, I don't have plans tonight, so hopefully I will find some way of showing off my 'do to the world!
This week as been fun. Wednesday night I went to a concert in the boonies at the Grand SaltAir where Citizen Cope was playing. Has anyone heard of him? I hadn't, but I wanted to go with that one kid Marty and the music was really good. I recommend it. I also recommend reggae music because all of a sudden I like it. Probably because summer is upon us and it reminds me of the beach. And apparently Ben Folds is coming to town, but tickets are $161 for general admission because it's a benefit concert. I mean good for him but couldn't he just do a huge show and tack on $5 to everyone's tickets? Or, he could just donate all the money he makes to this foundation. Just a thought.
I have also been house shopping because I've decided I don't just want to live in an apartment next year. We found a house that is right next to the stadium with 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and it is perfect!! It's not even on the market, but we have the inside scoop and have reserved it. I will post pictures when it's official!
And as a follow up from my last post, the movie "21" was good, but the date was eh. It just kind of bored me. And the other guy, Marty, just seems more into himself than me. Like I will ask him questions about himself, but then he doesn't ask me questions about myself. He's still really chill, and I will continue to be friends with these guys but nothing more. Oh well. One thing that has definitely changed is Ryan. One of the biggest things that troubled me with Ryan was that he wouldn't plan out a future with me in depth. I felt like I could never talk very long about how many kids he'd want, where he'd want to live, how he'd want to raise them, etc. Now, I feel like either he is putting on an act or he has just really realized how important those types of conversations are to me. Everyday he sends me a letter (today was Day 8) telling me what I mean to him and what our future can be/will be like. I have actually hung out with him and his friends almost every day for the last week which wasn't typical when we were going out. It's so much fun. And when we do get the chance to talk alone, he wants to talk about every detail about what both of us wants for our future. Ryan wants to talk about how many kids we want, where to raise them, what age he wants them at, what he wants in his career and school, when he'd want to get married, religious upbringings, etc. If this had come a month earlier, maybe I would've never felt the need to go on this dating spree. Even though it kills him, he appreciates what the break has already done for our relationship and he's being extremely respectful of what I want. It's almost unreal right now. I am going to continue to remain single and learn some things about myself now, but this is definitely not the last of me and Ryan. In this short time, I have already learned a lot about guys and what I want in a companion. Currently, I have 2 more guys that I will probably be going on dates with this weekend, but we'll see how it turns out.
I know these posts are supposed to be witty and typically used to make fun of other people, but I have a feeling that mine won't be that way most of the time, so sorry if drama is boring you! But I can already see the benefit of journaling these experiences!

Uh, where were you looking at Ben Folds tickets? Because from what I can see, they're $32.50: https://ktix.ticketforce.com/orderticketsarea.asp?p=815&a=1&backurl=%2FDefault%2Easp%3FSearchMonth%3D%26monthsubmit%3D%26SearchText%3D%26Go%2Ex%3D%26Go%2Ey%3D%26pg%3D2%23abc

My friends got tickets and they would definitely not spend $161. Also, I know what you mean about SaltAir being in the middle of nowhere... I went to Snow Patrol there and my date and I were driving and it was all dark and we were like, "WHERE ARE WE?"

Finally, you don't actually HAVE to make fun of people in your blog, just because you have mean sisters who do so in theirs...
