I'm really hungry - It's too bad that I'm so lazy and am not making a meal

I just watched the E True Hollywood Story about Sex and the City and thought of all you girls and felt like updating.
Not too much going on in my life currently.
We went hiking on Sunday. It was awesome. I really am feeling inspired to do a lot more hiking now. It's really a lot of fun. We're going to go to Estes Park tomorrow. We're going to head into Rocky Mountain National Park and do some hiking in the morning, some driving around the park, and then back to Estes for dinner and maybe some shopping. It should be fun.
I went running the other day. It's been a while since I've really gone running. I felt good and it was cool out so I just kept going and it was over 3 and a half miles so I was surprised with myself. I wasn't going incredibly fast or anything (like over 9 minute miles which is really rather slow). But anyways at least I know I can still run if I actually go out and do it. So maybe now I'll feel better about going running now that I know that I won't just lay down if I try to go longer than 10 minutes.
I started babysitting for this family that lives not too far from where I work. Thay have 2 kids Peyton (a girl), who is like 3 and a half, and Ethan (a boy obviously), who's like 2. They're really cute and funny. Peyton has this almost white hair that often sticks out pretty crazily and is a chatterbox. Ethan on the other hand has really dark hair that is longer and curly and is shy but laughs a lot. I watched them the other night and they were really good and easy, except for a little bedtime incident. Their mom and dad usually put them to bed, turn out the light, and shut the door, but they said the kids have been getting up and turning the light back on and playing. Supposedly they just let them play and after about an hour at the latest they crawl back up into their beds and go to sleep and then the parents turn the lights out. However after about 45 minutes it started getting really loud in there so I stuck my head in. Clothes were scattered all over the floor, Peyton had changed into a skirt and sweater and was sitting on top of the changing table with a 2 by 4 in her hand, and Ethan was running around in just his diaper. I had to try really hard not to crack up. To make a long story short apparently the 2 by 4 goes through the handles of the dresser so the kids don't play with their clothes at night. So now I know for next time. They knew they were in trouble so they went right to sleep after I changed them back into their pj's and I put all the clothes back. They're super cute though.
Sunday we're going to hopefully go to Brewfest in old downtown and try some different beers. It's kind of useless though because Bud Light will always be my favorite! But it should be fun anyways.
I don't know if I ever wrote this before or just thought I would write it. I heard some of Paris Hilton's music on the radio a while back and I was surprised that it didn't suck as much as I thought it would. It actually was kind of catchy.
I can't wait to come to St. Louis in August. I'm so excited to see so many people!!!

Quote of the Entry:
"'Cause I remember how we drank time together
And how you used to say that the stars are forever.
And daydreamed about how to make your life better by
Leaving town, leaving town.

Nothing in life will ever come that easy.
Doesn't mean it has to be that hard.
I know you will find out who you are

But when you're broke and down and no one else is around.
You'll come running back to this town and
I'll be there, yeah I'll be there."
~ "Leaving Town" - Dexter Freebish

Lovely post, I rather enjoyed it. Although I don't know that I agree with your opinion of the Paris Hilton song, she irks me.
