i want my mommy

Hi, my name is Natalia. I am 26-years-old. And sometimes, I just want my mommy. I wish my mom was closer so I could go hang out with her today for her birthday.

nevada day

Yes, it is a real holiday, and yes I get the day off :)

road trip

I hate road trips. And by hate, I mean HATE! What is there to do on a road trip other than just look at a whole lot of nothing and hope that the time passes quickly. But, because I love my husband so very much, I’m willing to drive 5 hours to see him.

the grand introduction

I’m going to have to come up with something like this someday:

tastes of childhood

Every once in a while, I come across something that reminds me of my childhood and feel it absolutely necessary to take a trip down memory lane. One such instance occurred this weekend when I found Pop Rocks at a gas station. Although I still find the popping effect is kind of cool, I can barely taste any sort of flavor other than pure sugar. This once again confirms that I am no longer a child.

20 items or less

I find it sooooo annoying when people get in the express line at the grocery store but have more than 20 items. The other day, I ran to the store really quick during my lunch hour to grab something and got stuck behind some woman who apparently thought that 20 items meant 20 big items with several smaller items thrown in the mix. And to make matters worse, she then had the never to pull out an advertisement for another store to have the checker match those prices. Hello??? Could she not see that I only had three things in my hand and was obviously in a hurry? I really wish that people like that woman would be force to pay some kind of fine for intentional misuse of the express line.

how well do you know your spouse?

As Luis and I were finishing going through the last of the junk left in our Orem apartment, we came across the Utah Marriage Handbook (given to us when we got our marriage license last year). There is a questionnaire in the booklet regarding how well you know your spouse. One of the questions is: What are some of my spouse’s life dreams? Forget traveling the world or learning to cook gourmet dishes, according to Luis, my only life’s dream is to have children so that I can blog about them DAY AND NIGHT.
