A classic American Tale

We've all been there. You've got an hour of work left. You're high on life because in just a few hours you'll be on a plane to see the family. You couldn't really give a crap about your job cause you have 47 minutes left until vacation and then....

BAM.....

Your cute strappy black sandle your wearing breaks. Awesome. Its not worth it to go home and change shoes cause by the time you go there and back, it'll be time to leave. But you can't walk around barefoot because its a nice place. So...

You STAPLE your shoe back together. I am the most white trash person alive. Thank you very much. Its pretty delicate so I'm making sure not to walk as much as possible, but I'm down to 41 minutes and then I'll be out of here and it won't matter anymore!!!!!

I know this is camera-phone quality, but you can very clearly see the 4 staples that are currently holding my shoe together. This is very white-trash of me, but I think my farmer parents of mine would be proud of me for being so resourceful.

So last semester Mary who lives upstairs from us was my visiting teacher and megan was her's. And we adopted her sister Michelle too. Long story short.... we all became BFF's. Our visiting teaching dinners would go for like 6 hours and we would talk about everything under the sun. I just love these girls to pieces. They are super funny, way cool and as we all become increasingly ready to move out of where we live, its nice to have people that feel the same way!! Anyways, I find myself eating A LOT of meals with them lately. And I think every picture we take with them involves us eating some kind of food. Luckily they are foodies like us so it works!!

The best part is they have combined mine and Megan's name into "Meggie" and actually call us that like it is our name. I don't know why that is so funny to me but it is. I split my time calling them Mich-mary and Marchelle. I just can't decide which one I like better. So bascially, these girls are freaking awesome and I love them to death. They are probably about the only thing I am going to miss when I move out in August.

Dinner at Olive Garden on Friday

Mary, Me, Megan, Michelle

Oh yes I hate technology

• Why do the computer god's hate me? A few weeks back me and megan were tweaking with my ipod trying to get it to do something different.. and I thought we had done it but the next time I plugged it into my computer, it deleted ALL of my music and would freeze my itunes everytime I plugged it in.. AWESOME!!! So i've asked about every guy friend I know to look at it and see if they can fix it. A couple of them thought that they could, but no one has been able to get it to do anything. So I finally decided that this weekend, I would have to drive up to Salt Lake to the Apple store and have them fix it for me becuase I don't want to take a trip to the East Coast music-less.

• Then last night I think I got a virus on my computer... AWESOME!!! I sent myself an e-mail from work with some info for the talk I'm giving on Sunday (So much for me trying to be spiritual) and when I opened it my virus-protection software went crazy telling me I had 120389857 new threats and that I needed to upload all of this new virus software to get rid of them. And when I would try to open anything on the internet, it wouldn't let me. You know something is really wrong when you try to open Lds.org and it tells you the website is corrupt.

• So now I'm at a loss.. there is no point taking my iPod to get fixed if the computer I hook it up to doesn't work and I just don't really have the time or the patience to deal with this (Especially the latter). And this is my venting for the day. Hopefully I can find someone who knows something because I might throw all of my electronics into the swimming pool if it doesn't get better soon.

I'll be a spiritual giant in NO time

Tonight Megan, Mary and myself started going to institute. Meg and I had been talking off and on for along time about how wanted to go to institute and luckily Mary has a rockin memory and remembered that it was tonight. So we decided that would start going.

AND I FEEL LIKE I COULD

LOVE MY TEACHER.

A lot about her reminds me of Melanie, in her mannerisms and stuff. But she was just so excited about everything she was talking about and she was so good about getting people involved and we were only there for about 40 minutes tonight, but I really felt great about that class and we discussed things that I had never thought of or heard of before. And that is exactly what I was hoping for!! I'm really excited to keep going and to learn lots of awesome stuff and become super-dooper spiritual and smart.

I LOVE TV AND TOO I LOVE MEGAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So about 2 weeks ago, Comcast came and delivered theses digital cable converter boxes to each of the apartments and said if it wasn't working by later that night so give them a call. So we did, but they wanted us to set up an account and we didn't really feel super great about this.

So after about two weeks of calling them and saying that we didn't want to give them our information and stuff, Megan was home from work and finally bit the bullet and did it. She told me while I was at work that she had set it up and we had all of our channels back and I about flew out of my seat I was so excited.

I didn't think I had noticed not having the tv.. we still had movies and stuff, but tonight when I got home and was able to watch some FREAKY medical show on animal planet, I was just so happy and forever indebted to Megan for fixing the cable.

Dirty Dirty Dairy Queen

So we LOVE blizzards. Like LOVE them! When we went on our St George trip, we went to Dairy Queen twice and I was re-introduced to how much I love blizzards. Anyways, last Friday, a few of us went on a blizzard run. But what what started out as an innocent little Dairy Queen trip went VERY wrong.....

First, Megan ordered her blizzard but when they gave it to her, the cup tipped over... a bunch of ice cream fell out... and so the nice lady scooped it back into the cup and gave it back to Megan, then nicely walked off. So Megan politely stood there and waited until the chick came back and then asked for a new one. The girl just gave her a nasty look and was like "Why?" Eventually they gave her a new one... although they probably spit in it so she could have just kept her original dirty ice cream. Haha.

Then, the chick NEVER cleaned up where Megan's ice cream had spilt. We were there for probably 30 minutes and the mess from her ice cream was still there!!! It was so gross. That is exactly why she demanded a new one.

The remnants of Megan's ice cream spill.. 30 minutes after the incident.

Then right after I got my blizzard and sat down, it was sort of towering over my cup.. and I spilt a HUGE spoonful right on the floor. Well, technically, it ricocheted 3 times off my pant legs, then landed on the floor. I was so embarrassed. Hi, I'm 3 and can't eat.

My spill.. so sad.

The absolute worse part of this experience was when I went to take a picture of the counter where they spilt Meg's blizzard, I didn't realize the flash was on and the chick turned around thinking I was taking a picture of her. I was mortified. I looked at them and was like "I HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE." So then we ran outside before we could cause any more trouble. They'll probably never let us inside again.

After One Week of Work...............

My Favorite things about my new full-time position.........

I have more responsibility than I did at both of my other two jobs combined.

The days are going by really quickly. I will look up and it will be like 3 in the afternoon! I'm loving that.

I have a lot of work to do and I'm always busy instead of bored.

My Least Favorite things about my new full-time position.

I have a lot of work to do and I'm always busy.

In addition to my real estate job I also work for these 3 attorneys and I never know whats going on with them and I often make a fool of myself because of it.

Season 4 of Prison Break is really good and now that I don't get to watch TV in the mornings I have no time to watch it.
