Here, in Utah

My life as a casually-Catholic girl living (in sin) in Salt Lake City, Utah after five years in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Just another Utah observation

I should have figured this out right away, but it actually took me awhile to put it together.

A number of people I've encountered in Utah who make significantly more than I do drive utterly POS cars.  I'm talking bumpers half-way attached with duct tape, side-view mirrors ripped off, stains all over the interior, the whole nine-yards.  Now, I'm not rolling in a beamer by any means, but I do make it a habit to run my car through the drive-through car wash once every two or three months.

And then it hit me:  these people were all male. And, by a hunch, Mormon. And, male + Mormon usually = sole supporter of family of 5+.

Thus resulting in driving POS cars despite making $15,000 more a year than I do.
