this is the first day of my life: May 2014
http://ronivagabondista.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
This is the first day of my life. Tuesday, May 13, 2014. This post could just as easily be titled: "Roni, This Is. This is what my face looks like these days. Although, sometimes I close my mouth. It was a parenthesis. Sometimes I feel the same way about my time in New York City. Like I am living in a new parenthesis. I elaborated on this sentiment with my friend, and she said, "This is your life.". Nonetheless, sometimes in the morning I still open my eyes and have to ask myself, "Is this my life? But t...

this is the first day of my life: on september 11th and comedy
http://ronivagabondista.blogspot.com/2015/05/on-september-11th-and-comedy.html
This is the first day of my life. Wednesday, May 6, 2015. On september 11th and comedy. This isn't a September Eleventh joke, is it? Just ask, “September Eleventh who? Okay September Eleventh who? You said, “Never forget! My cousin was actually in the Twin Towers that day. Oh my gosh, your cousin died? The kindly librarian guide explained how they could use the library tools to help them with school research papers. The topic she chose to demonstrate how the available resources could be used was Sept...

this is the first day of my life: September 2013
http://ronivagabondista.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
This is the first day of my life. Wednesday, September 25, 2013. On Reading Joan Didion Essays in a Tattoo Parlor. The names of the proprietors of Giant Tattoo, my next-door neighbor, are not Cujo and Bulldog. Those are the names of the movers around the corner. I was confused. But the Giant Tattoo people (whose names I never asked) were gracious about the mistaken identity. Are any of you named Cujo or Bulldog? And "Are you from California? I ought to express my gratitude in a neighborly way. Maybe ...

this is the first day of my life: April 2015
http://ronivagabondista.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
This is the first day of my life. Saturday, April 25, 2015. These days, I essentially live inside a blanket fort, or if I am being perfectly forthcoming about my sourcing of materials, a thrift store bed sheet fort. I still call the Foam Dome home and am beginning to earn the moniker "Summit County local.". Running away to join the circus? But Der Fondue Chessel closed, and I stayed. I deviated from the plan. So, I am drinking it all in. Sometimes with my roommate's dog, TT, by my side. Exhibit A: This p...

this is the first day of my life: August 2014
http://ronivagabondista.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
This is the first day of my life. Monday, August 18, 2014. Mountains make poor receptacles for dreams. The title of this post comes from a line in jon krakauer's into the wild. Just before i read into the wild,. I devoured into thin air,. Recently mr. jon krakauer has been my literary obsession, but reading the into thin air. And into the wild. Maybe life is a little a bit like improv. if you stop saying yes to opportunity, you suspend development. I excitedly told my mom this plan. it was the first ...

this is the first day of my life: December 2013
http://ronivagabondista.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
This is the first day of my life. Tuesday, December 31, 2013. An abundance of lists (okay, just two). Anyway, in an attempt to review the year and prepare for the next I have created some lists. List #1: A summary of the highlights of 2013, in no particular order. 1 Moved to New York. 2 Held three jobs (Fat Jack's, Neighborhood House, and generationOn). 3 Went on trips to New York City, Las Vegas, Moab, Atlanta and Washington D.C. 4 Hiked a couple mountains (although, not Timpanogos). 3 Have more fun.

this is the first day of my life: On The Catcher in the Rye
http://ronivagabondista.blogspot.com/2015/01/on-catcher-in-rye.html
This is the first day of my life. Wednesday, January 14, 2015. On The Catcher in the Rye. Every so often I resist the compulsion to splatter the following quote all over the social media channels to which I subscribe:. Don't ever tell anybody anything. If you do, you start missing everybody.". The line comes from J.D. Salinger's masterwork, The Catcher in the Rye. I refrain from posting it because I have already shared it multiple times before and feel I ought to venture into new literary sentiment.

http://cottamfam.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Cottam Family - Kyle and Megs-. Wednesday, July 21, 2010. Reminded of my childhood when I smell fresh paint (my office is getting painted). Come to the conclusion that all troubles boil down to lack of communication. Very excited about our camping trip this weekend! I am also not. Very, very excited about Kyle getting us new Iphones! Stressed about hiring a new Registrar in my office. Monday, July 5, 2010. The Fourth of July! Hooray for the 4th of July! Melissa and her cool mask! This is the latest quilt...

this is the first day of my life: Home Sweet Dome
http://ronivagabondista.blogspot.com/2015/01/home-sweet-dome.html
This is the first day of my life. Wednesday, January 21, 2015. Nestled on the Blue River in Silverthorne, Colorado, the Foam Dome provides residence to a ragtag bunch of human beings drawn to the mountains, an eclectic living space and cheap rent in a county that boasts an average home price of $750,000 (fact courtesy of Wikipedia.). When endeavoring to explain the structure to acquaintances I typically say, "Think Hobbit Hole.". Boot tries on his White Elephant gift at the Christmas Party. Also the view...
