A lonely night in Provo

Unfortunately duty (work) called so I could only take one week off for Christmas vacation. This would be okay I guess, but everyone in Provo is still on their vacation and will be for the next few days. I have compiled a list of perks to being the only person currently living in Provo.

1. Unlimited parking options - Normally the parking situation in Provo leaves something to be desired, but not now. Whenever I go somewhere, I can just park right on the street. Unfortunately, there is nowhere to go because no one is home.
2. Working out at an empty gym (or so I thought) - I ran last night for a full hour just to make Ron (the health coach at work) happy. Last month he practically told me that my weight was spiraling out of control and that that I needed to do something....apparently for a size 0 woman, 6 lbs in 2 months is something to worry about. So I did. I worked out last night and sometimes I got off the couch while on vacation. Somehow, all the fat food I ate and exercise I didn't do paid off and I lost 4.5 pounds. whoop di do.
*Note to self: the only people that go to the gym during Christmas break in Provo are me and big, tan, blonde meat heads that prefer the gym over family. These men may even have Austrian accents. This is not the proper time to wear tight leggings to the gym.
3. Able to clean until the apt shines - last night I cleaned my butt off. Well, in all reality, I didn' t clean my butt off. I thought I was cleaning, but 2 hours later I realized that I had spent the last hour and a half dancing and singing to Bruno Mars at the top of my lungs and all I had accomplished was loading the dishwasher with my dinner plate. You can dance like crazy when no one else is in your apartment complex. Music all the way up to 10? Yes, please. So scratch that and make it - 3. Dance like a maniac.
4. No one cares when you talk to your fish - I need to clean my fish tank because it stinks, but that didn't happen (see #3) so instead I talked to them because talking to fish is a little more normal than talking to yourself.
5. All the Redbox a girl could ask for - Buy 3 get one free? Sure, why not. I have a few extra hours. or 10. The fish and I enjoy a good movie or 4 all by ourselves in a dark apartment with no one to talk to but ourselves.
