I am from Utah

I am from Utah and

- I am a decent driver
- I was married the month before I turned 22, not the day after I turned 18
- I don't go to church
- I don't want to have children
- I am a democrat
- The large majority of my friends are homosexual
- I don't want to stay here forever, I want to move out of state for a little while

And though those things apply to me, I love people who are the complete opposite. I know and love faithful church goers with 8 children who are as republican as they come. And we love and respect each other.

I just think it's important that people know that people like me exist. And we are good people. We deserve to be respected. I will strive to respect you.

And while I live in a very quirky state, I love it here. Utah is my home. My family is here. My past is here. My friends are here. And I love this big ol' state. I wouldn't trade my home state for the world. And I'm grateful that my roots will always be here.

Sing it with me now! "UTAH! People working together. UTAH! What a great place to be! Blessed from heaven above, it's the land that we love. THIS IS THE PLACE!" (I dare you to get that song out of your head)
