sailboats wish that they were stars

we finally got a new layout! hence the adam lyrics referring to sailboats title.

this blog is not about sailboats, but #78 that has recently been added to and crossed off of our list. we realize that doing something and then putting it on the list is a very buried life thing for us to do, but the actual list item was very buried lifesque as well. here's what happened:

cayla gets home from school on wednesday and freezes next to the couch with her phone in her hand. "lauren," she says, "have you seen the buried life's facebook?" from the tone of her voice I'm dreading what she's going to say next- one of them married taylor swift or their show's getting cancelled or something. but then she informs me that duncan & dave are repelling off a building in downtown phoenix. ?! so we obviously jump in the car and fly down the freeway.

please note, my car was completely on empty, we got stuck in traffic there & back, I missed the deadline to register for my spring semester classes, and used all the change in my wallet to pay for a parking meter.

so, we get there and see someone getting ready to repel down this huge building. ! could it possibly be one of them? finally, the person gets to the ground and we realize it's baxter, the mascot for the diamondbacks.


 baxter dances around then heads inside the building. thinking that the buried life must be in there as well, cayla and I nonchalantly follow baxter into the building. as we enter, a lady asks us if we're here for the cocktail party. looking down at our sweatshirts and ripped jeans, cayla and I aren't really sure what to say. we try to convince her that we are definitely allowed to be in there, and then she informs us that this is a private condominium. then she asks us if we're looking for the buried life, and tells us that they're gone.

SO CLOSE.

unbelievable? not so much, more like typical of our luck. creepy? no, not that either, just dedicated.

dear the buried life,
just meet us already.
cheers,
lauren & cayla
