reason number 45: because your team won

where to begin...a night like this is hard to put on paper (er, to record electronically). it all started when my BFF purchased the car of her dreams and needed me (i was honored) to take her to pick it up in the big SLC. in addition to the uncontainable excitement around the new wheels we nearly bit off a bigger excitement bite than we could chew when we called our dear friend natalie allen. when natalie answered the phone and said she was shopping with nayowmie all we needed to know was where this shopping party was going down. costco...how perfect. i mean really, there is no other store that morgano, nat, and i hold more near and dear to our hearts. after all, we have costco to thank for our precious friendship with natalie. turns out that sarah palin is like a box of cereal: she brings people together. so after some tender moments shared with nayowmie in costco, she graciously shared nat with us for the evening. we dinnered at cafe rio. we were entertained by a scene that was beyond description or comprehension by anyone who wasn't present...so i won't waste our time. one word: toupee. then we had a grand adventure at r.e.i. there is no reason this shouldn't have been hers... i made some truly fabulous purchases. i always wanted these on my bike as a kid. another failed childhood dream turned adult success.
and then there were panties in a bottle. let's just say that the nice boys at r.e.i. know more about my intimate wear than they ever cared to know. sorry guys. as we left r.e.i. we were discussing a name and the first personalization that the new element deserved. at that very moment a sticker blew in front of morgano and natalie and landed on the ground right behind the element. as if to say, "here i am, sticker number one." it was this great biker sticker:really, it couldn't have been more perfect. just like this night. perfect night with perfect friends. and while we're on the subject of stickers here's reason number 7842 to love natalie: she created thisthanks to my BFF for getting a new car and giving us an excuse to venture to the big city for fun
thanks to nayowmie for the chips and for sharing natalie with us today
thanks to natalie for giving us the latest catch phrase: "i can't wait to hose this thing out."
