Right now you could say I live downtown, but I categorize it more on the edge of Rose Park, although we are still on the east side of I-15. It's actually a great location: seconds from downtown (I can walk), close to the freeway, and around the corner from a 7-11. Pretty ideal. But, I've recently fallen in love with a section of Salt Lake City known as Capitol Hill. It's this quaint little neighborhood right along the Capital building and I love it. Lots of big shady trees, really old homes with lots of personality and charm, sidewalks, and gardens. It reminds me a lot of some of the neighborhoods I saw around Europe - lots of small streets, with little cottages tucked away among vine bushes and slate walkways. One of the girls I visit teach lives conveniently in this neighborhood (as do a lot of people in my ward) and I basically drooled over her house last night as we talked about something relating to perfecting the saints...or serving our fellow sisters....I'm not sure. I was too concentrated on her original hard wood floors and built-in bookcases.
Really, I'm not way serious about moving. Moving is not fun, but if I come across a little gem of real estate on Capitol Hill, I'd seriously consider it. I'd just need to get my roommates to come with, which would be next to impossible. Who knows, if I can find something amazing for a good price, maybe it would be time to consider living alone. I actually wouldn't mind living alone. In fact, if I could afford it, I'm sure I'd be living alone now.
Anyways, I dyed my hair and now it's too dark. I don't like it. Hopefully it fades a little over the next couple weeks.
I also saw 17 Again tonight. Ok, Zac Efron? Yes, please. I'm going to go ahead and use this blog to publicly proposition him to be the father of my children. There I said it. I'm not even ashamed. Zac, if you're out there, it's brianneolsen@gmail.com.

I always dye my hair too dark and then I hate it for 3 weeks, and then it's perfect. Just be patient.
Capitol Hill is a lovely area of SLC. I'll cross my fingers for you.
Dude, I just did the same thing. The box said coffee brown and my hair came out jet black. So I re-did it a shade light the next week. It's looks better,I guess. I just keep going back and forth between brown or blond.
You should move, if you can.
PS: Downtown SLC is a great place. Hope you get there.
