Utah! What a great place to NOT be!

It has been a little over two weeks since I moved out of Utah, and I couldn't be happier. Do I miss some people? Yes, but I would rather be missing those people then in that state, and this is all coming from a Mormon. Utah has 5 things better than any other place in the world... Drew, Koa, Noah, Buggy, and Isaiah, and they will make it so I go visit (and the rest of my family and friends too ;)).

Here are the top ten reasons why I am glad to have finally ditched the Beehive state.

10- Movies! I will no longer have to wait an extra month to see movies like Milk (this came out in theaters in Logan one week before it came out on dvd, and I am being 100% honest), or be completely censored from movies like The Kids are Alright, and Rabbit Hole (I don't understand this one, but whatever).  I will also no longer have to worry about seeing these movies within the week because that is about how long their theater life lasts. Shake your head at these R rated movies all you want, but at least they teach you something about history, or the lives of people with different cultures.

9- The news is dedicated to only two universities. I am so happy to no longer be hearing about the one true school every second of the day.

8- While I have not yet completely acquainted myself with the Colorado legislator, I know they are not going to be nearly as ridiculous as Utah. There are too many crazy laws to post, but I will link you to the most recent one. Yeah, they are talking about repealing this, but you do realize it is the same people that passed it that are now doing that. They got caught doing something shady, and are now pretending like they didn't realize it was shady. Very strange!  Luckily, from Denver I can just laugh about this.

7- Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin supporters. There are much less here, need I say more?

6- Sports! There are actually more professional teams than just basketball out here. That makes me so incredibly happy. Pro Sports go year round in Denver! I hate all their teams, but at least I can watch live games, and I will be able to cheer against them very loudly. Here's to a summer filled with baseball (Dan will love that)!

5-  Weather. It snowed yesterday in Utah. It was 70 degrees here, but it might have snowed in the mountains (exactly where snow belongs).

4- Pyramid Schemes/ Summer Sales, this topic is worthy of a whole blog.

3- The homophobia. I don't think this is something that I should get into, but people aren't that good at loving others especially if those others love someone with the same privates as them.

2- Mexicans, and by Mexicans I mean everyone hating Mexicans. I don't know why people think it is funny to say, "but are you legal?" after I say, "I am Mexican." It isn't funny. It is rude, and incredibly racist. I could say so much more, but I might get very ornery, and both Chaz and Dan would hate that.

1- The culture! Pretty much 2-10 combined with an extra dose of judgementalness (not a word, but I am pulling a Colbert). People tend to put themselves on a pedal-stool if they fit into a certain mold, and forget that we are all equals, no matter what you believe.

I promise you that I don't miss Utah. A select few people, but no not Utah.

PS I have so much time on my hand that I might be blogging daily until I find a job.
