All Blown Up and Stuff...

So, the "family" computer pretty much blew up. The hard-drive fried its own brain on a dare, apparently. So along with all my pictures, my English papers from last semester are now lost. It kind of sucks that I have lost MONTHS of work. Bleh...anyway, it feels like it's been MONTHS since I've been on the internet. Seriously. Who knew that life without home access to the internet would be so...boring.

Right now, I've commandeered my brother's laptop to get some blogging out of my system. I've been craving my blog. Not so much Facebook or my email. I can check those from my phone, but my blog. My heck! I've been going through blogging withdrawls like crazy and really, it's only been a couple days since I've been without. Okay. It's really only been 2 days since I've been without internet.

Anyway, I really don't have anything to update the blog-o-sphere on. Other than I've recently finished the Matrix trilogy and have watched the newer Pride and Prejudice this weekend. I could discuss, at length, my love for Pride and Prejudice. I love Jane Austen.

Okay, well, I suppose that 2:30 am is a perfectly respectable bedtime for someone who slept in WAY too long. Although, I popped in season 7 of Gilmore Girls and I kind of want to finish the first DVD.

Over and out, yo.

I didn't realize you liked Jane Austen! You'd think I would have known that about you. Did you get to see the new Masterpiece Theatre "Emma"? Soooo much better than the Gwenyth? Paltrow one, though Mr. Knightly was much more handsome in that one than in the new one. We'll have to have a Jane Austen chat sometime. Love ya!

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...

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...

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...
