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...

Dear Momma

Dear Momma, How is it that you've been gone 21 years today? There are pictures of you that were taken when you were sick that I don't like to look at very often. Mostly because you are noticeably thinner and you can tell that the jaundice is starting to set in. And you look so sad. I think we all look a little sad in those pictures because we knew that the end was near. In my 39 years on earth, I didn't think that you would be gone for more than half of it. I didn't think I'd missing you this much either but there are little things that happen during my day that remind of you. Sometimes those little memories make me smile and sometimes I'm so overcome with a soul crushing sadness that I have to swallow the lump in my throat so I can keep going on with my day. Today, though, I'm sitting in the emotion of wishing that you were here. It sucks. It's completely unfair that you were taken. It's unfair that the doctors didn't find the cance...

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...
