You can take the girl out of the ghetto but....

I had a wonderful weekend with Christine, Elizabeth, and Melissa in San Antonio. We worked at the temple opening for a looong six hours, but it was well worth it. We were really tired that night, so we grabbed a bite to eat and then headed to our hotel. Turns out our hotel was in crazy ghetto land where the front desk lady yelled at us while checking in and creepy drunk people stared at us as we went to the elevator. Our room wasn't as nice as the internet picture. (Side note, I dont think people who have their pictures on the internet are totally truthful about thier appearance as well. I know I usually pick the most flattering picture, but if people saw the real angela, they would say...'ummm..pass') So, you see, the hotel internet picture was much better than the real life deal. There was no extra couch or mini kitchen. There were holes in the wall, lose tiles, and cigarette butts and an oddly placed two-way looking mirror covering an entire wall. To make matters worse, the fire alarm went off three times that night (no fire though) and the sound of police cars were ever present....probably because of the crack house behind the hotel. This may sound not-so-fun, but it was worth it because we got the hotel room for free after complaining. LUCKY!!

Needless to say, there wasn't much sleep on this trip. Which made coming home all the better. Isn't is always nice to come home to a nice bed to take a nap in? But best of all...very best of all...my bathroom had been remodeled thanks to Justin, Amber, and my mom. Yeah! My bathroom used to be a concrete floor with two miserable rugs. They (mainly Justin from what I hear) measured my bathroom, all the nooks and crannies...even around the toilet...to get a perfect fit to cut the carpet. I left my house thinking i was destined to always have a ghetto conveniece store bathroom, and came back to a full fledged normal, All-American bathroom. LUCKY!! I dont know what got into them....doesn't matter. I love it. Thanks very very much Justin, Amber, and Mom :)
