Evidently, there is a social class that resides in these small apartments of entertainment within the Rose Garden arena. The majority of this class are wealthy and upper class citizens. Most of them wore polos and loafers (dorks) and all had neatly combed hair. One of them even rolled his eyes as we entered the elevator (I'm not sure why... maybe my GAP jeans were just too white trash for him). There were attendants in the hallways with white towels and bottle openers, ready to serve those who are unable to serve themselves.
Matt and I left the game with many thoughts and considerations about those who have more money to spend and the type of human beings they appear to be. There is a very shallow and superficial part of us that would enjoy being a part of this crowd... as life appears easier when you have additional amounts of scrilla around. In reality, Matt and I realize that having simplicity is far more attractive to us. We appreciate the smaller things in life, such as our marriage and our families. Both Matt and I find having more possessions draws us farther from God and we become close to losing ourselves in the things of this World. Both of us desire to have meaning and purpose in life, which does not include the temporary trappings of items and things.
So, needless to say our light-hearted outing with John and Tiffany turned into a week-long mental processing for myself. Granted, I tend to over-think many things in life... but someone should.

Oh yea, the Blazer's lost to Golden State... which was disappointing.
I crave simplicity, as a crafter/packrat its hard to come by. I miss you. I found an amazing path near where we are living you would love. It's so pretty right now. I love fall. It's fun to see you are doing well. Do you still like your new job?
