We're Not In Kansas Anymore...

We left Kansas yesterday after meeting my friend Mandy for lunch in Junction City. Lunch turned into major catching up and we didn't arrive in Denver until after midnight mountain time. Everyone kept saying Kansas was SO flat- well, I was disappointed in how not SO flat most of it was. Once we got out to the really western part it did become very flat and you could see for tens and tens of miles at a time. As the sun went down, you literally could not tell where the earth ended and the sky began. We missed the Colorado sign because it was too dark and apparently western states have not grasped the concept of lighting their signs. So anyway...here are the pictures we took in St. Louis.


In other news...
Apparently, there is a muscle in between the two halves of the rib cage. Apparently, this muscle is important for doing things such as sitting up from laying down. Apparently, this muscle also has a role in coughing and sneezing. Apparently, I pulled this muscle. I noticed it in St. Louis but still have not figured out how I did it since I hadn't been to the gym for several days. At least now it is only mildly annoying. Before, every time i sat up, sneezed, or coughed it felt like a thousand firey knives were stabbing me between the ribs. I don't recommend pulling this particular muscle as it not too fun.
