Today we took a drive to the Sundance Ski Resort. I actually forgot it was the last day of the 2003 Sundance Film Festival. Aside from meeting one of Latin America’s hottest stars [who?] right as I was telling Kyle,
“smoking is gross,”
and then looking up to see this Latin Pop sensation lighting up three inches from my face, Sundance and its films have been much different this year. Luckily the Pop Star responded,
“Your Mommy is right. Smoking is gross.”

One Last thing:
When I went to use the bathroom there were several over dressed slender women fixing their hair and applying layers of lip gloss talking on cellphones. Even without the films, Sundance has not changed.
