Deep Down In The Heart Of Texas

Since I have decided to move I have had numerous things come out of the woodwork; men, promotions, money… men. Crazy that these men folk have had ample time to get their acts together but NO! Right as I am about to leave (in a week) they can’t get enough. Don’t go Betty, stay here and date me Betty…. Where the hell was all of this when I was going through my dating drought?!?!?!

There are things I will most definitely miss about this place (Utah). I will miss having everyone around me being my same religion, the mountains, my job and the wonderful people that I have gotten to know over the years.

I will not miss the following… BYU students walking in front of my car with no regards to whether I am at a safe stopping distance or not, The levels of passive aggressive that some people have managed to reach, and having my desk at work 10 feet from the bathroom…. especially on Mexican food day. I about died after 3 of the men folk walked out of the bathroom. No amount of spray potpourri can cover that stench….. gag!

I will miss being the only female on staff and having belching contests and playing ‘Texas Hold Em’ with the men. I will miss having all attention on me when I wear skirts to work. I’ll miss the Dr. Pepper stash that the men keep because they know it’s my favorite beverage of all time, and the fart sessions the men have to see how I’ll react. After gassing everyone out of the building the first time it stopped having an effect but it was really interesting the amount of cologne and different scents that I would smell after ‘Fart-Outs’.

Veronica thinks I’m off my friggin rocker! Personally I don’t blame her and if I was in her situation looking in I would question my sanity too. I just want everyone to understand that what I’m doing and where I am going is where I feel like I need to be.

So, what are your plans when you move. And more importantly, why are you leaving me?

I was figuring on going to school, working and finding me a man with 'Proper Suthan Values'. Either shoot it, stuff it, or marry it!

I don't want to leave you honestly Kristina but I have got to get out of here before I get 'Court Ordered' to.
