Home at last! Just ME Sarah Jessica and Jared Leto!

January 26, 2008

When I stepped off the plane and entered the Saltlake City airport I was hit by a frozen tundra and I found myself longing for Florida and the warm weather there.  As I looked around the airport I realized that it was much more crowded than usual...suddenly I realized that I was standing by a lot of people in full length fur coats!  Then I noticed someone who I thought might have been Jared Leto...then Sarah Jessica Parker...weird!
