Back Home, for the Nonce

After Christmas with my family in American Fork, a week and a half at the Tibbitts Family Manse in California and a day of driving with a friend, I’m finally back in Salt Lake City.

Things I will miss about staying in my family’s house:
My parents and little sisters. My friend Carrie. Guitar Hero marathons on Carrie’s Nintendo Wii. Having an army of people to cook for. A mother to do the grocery shopping. Mild winters.

Reasons I am enjoying being back in Salt Lake:
Living alone. Quiet time to myself. Central heating. Unfiltered internet access. Snow. Interacting with non-Mormons occasionally.*

I won’t be in town for long, though. On Thursday I’m flying to Las Vegas for another library school seminar, which (fingers crossed!) won’t be as deadly as the last one. (See: Library Seminar #1 for the incoherent details.)

* Strange as it sounds, I know far more non-Mormons in Utah than I do in Southern California.

Two weeks from now I’ll be home enjoying my mother’s cooking. Can’t wait! I stayed put for Christmas so it’s been a few months since I’ve visited.

Have a great trip. Where is home for you, and how long has it been since you visited?

I actually ate very little of my mom’s cooking while I was at home, because I cooked almost everything. LOL
