A very annoying article with the writer doing lots of humble bragging and looking down her nose at people.

Yeah but it was just to goof on people at Greek from her privileged perch. Glad that you posted the link; however, it made me bristle.

To be fair to the writer, it's a challenge to write about people who aren't part of your socioeconomic group without being condescending or to observe them like zoo animals. Sorry if I'm making a mountain out of a molehill.
Story sounded like she lived a ski bum's daughter early life.To be fair to the writer, it's a challenge to write about people who aren't part of your socioeconomic group without being condescending or to observe them like zoo animals. Sorry if I'm making a mountain out of a molehill.
Kinda like a coal miner’s daughter with snow.

That was a nice detail about stuffing towels under the motel door in SLC to keep out the cold drafts while sleeping on the floor. I remember doing that at the Magic View Motel in December 2002 when it was -18 overnight.
