I tried to be chill, but you're so hot that I melted...

Man...I have an hour to fill before Letterman is on tonight. That's probably the one thing that I miss about not getting any channels at my place. Late night television. Ok, well mostly the news and Letterman. Haha...can you tell my age? I miss the news enough to mention it in my blog. Gosh, how boring am I?

So, I am a little peeved that my ward is a little anti-social these days. Ok, maybe I noticed it before, but was probably in denial. Now, that I don't hang out with the same group anymore, I see that people have a rough time going out of their way to fellowship the new and old of the ward. There is a definite clique in the ward and honestly, they're all a little old to even act this way. My roommate, Laura, called the Relief Society President yesterday to see if she still had tickets to the General Relief Society Broadcast for Saturday. She never called my roommate back. If anyone from church called me, regardless of whether or not it was business, I'd call them back. I'd expect more of people with leadership callings, such as the Relief Society President, to call people back in a timely manner. It rubs me the wrong way when someone who has that kind of leadership is anti-social and basically shuns new people. Don't get me wrong, I love my Relief Society President. She's a great person. But really? Regardless of whether or not you're the President or the visiting teacher, you should at least say hi to the new people at least once before the month goes by. I don't know...I just feel a tad let down by the President. She is normally on top of things. Lately though, she pretty much ignores most people. Laura does have a pretty big personality and can come off as a I-don't-care-what-you-think-of-me kind of girl. But in spite of that, she's just like everybody else. I almost suspect that Lynn, the RS president, is a tad intimidated by Laura. Which she shouldn't if Lynn actually got to know Laura...which you can't do if you don't talk to the new people. Vicious cycle I tell ya.

Anyway, I needed to get that out of my system.

Um...yeah...

I wish I had something more exciting to blog about. If I waited for that to happen, I'd probably never blog at all. Uh...my dad might be coming down this weekend. Don't know yet. If he does, it usually means I get a free meal and an interrogation session. Bleh...

Well, I am officially out of things to blog about. Oh wait! My roommate, Laura, got hit by a car yesterday while riding my other roommate's bike. Part of her upper thigh and arm are bruised and I think that the bruising is only going to get worse from here on out. Oh and she's limping. Definitely not good.

Ok...I'm out.

It's Okay to Be Sad

I'm sitting in my room nursing a 7-up because I ate too much cheese with my dinner. Being lactose sensitive, edging on completely intolerant, totally sucks. Sometimes dairy doesn't bother my stomach too much, but I guess eating cheese on a completely empty stomach wasn't the greatest idea but damn, that artichoke and spinach cheese dip was delicious. Was it worth it in the end? Meh..I could go either way at the moment. I just had a memory pop up of my first swig of raw cow milk. It was delicious and totally didn't make my stomach hurt. Anyhow, at lot has been swirling around my brain as of late. Here is a bullet list of the swirling mess: When I left UVU a little over 10 years ago, my GPA was a 1.95. When I came back in the fall I had to fill out a satisfactory academic progress (SAP) report thing to 1.) get my financial aid released, and 2.) promise to get a C or better for the remainder of my time at UVU. Well, I barely got a D in sociology 1010 class in the fa...

A Healthy Start

So, you know when the beginning of the new year rolls around and you recommit yourself to begin a healthier lifestyle and then you kind of crash and burn somewhere around the end of the month? Yeah...I've been there. Like every year of my my twenties. For some reason, the closer I get to turning 32 - yikes! when did that happen??? - the more I think about where I want my life to go, what I want to do, who I want to be...you get the point. Almost a week ago, I started exercising every day with just one rest day a week. Today - Saturday - is my rest day. It also is my sugar day. Anyhow, last Sunday I was sitting in my room perusing Pinterest. I was coming off a graveyard shift sleep the daylight hours away stint and I was bored. I said to myself, "You should do something healthy today. You've slept all day and have energy to burn." Somehow I ended up on this wall exercise chart thing on a friend's board and I thought, I can do this. It's quiet. I won't wake...

Reasons

So, you remember from the last post when I said things were "a-changin'"? Well, they are. I'm moving to Hillsboro, Oregon. ETA: November 1st, but probably November 4th so I can at least finish the pay period instead of leaving in the middle of it. Anyway, here's a quick list of things I bet you didn't know about Hillsboro: *It's near the ghost town of Idiotville, Oregon. Real place. Wiki or google it. *What Draper, Utah is to SLC is exactly what Hillsboro is unto Portland. Almost the same place. *Has AMAZING parks and waterfalls. *All voting is done by mail. Secretly, I'm a little bummed about not getting a "I voted" sticker. Okay, so I could only really think of 4 things that you might not have known about Hillsboro or the surrounding area. Oregon as a state though, is pretty dang fantastic. I'll finally be able to partake in the Goonie-for-the-day festivities in Astoria. While there are many reasons why I'm moving away, the main rea...
