New Post

I know it's far past time for a new post, but I honestly feel there's nothing of interest to write about. So... here's what we do.

• Parker and I go to school. It's hard.
• I still work 20 hours a week at the MTC. Parker's starting to recruit again and works a few hours each week as a TA for a construction class.
• Halloween is this weekend, and we have no plans for the holiday (but we're both really ok with that, neither of us love to dress up). We do have friends coming over tomorrow bringing homemade sushi! Love that! So festive, huh. We're not total scrooges though, we have candy to give away if someone knocks on our door. :)
• Parker won a Play Station 3 at work, and we traded it for a surround sound system (which I have mixed feelings about, but we don't need to get into that now) which is (SLOWLY) in the process of being hooked up as I type.
• We bought a new entertainment center. It's beautiful, and came with a matching CD case (that I don't really know what we'll do with, because we really have no need for it...). Pics to come someday, maybe when I finally post pictures of my living room.
• Speaking of living room, I decided it needed curtains, not just blinds, to make it more cozy. I found the perfect ones, and they were on clearance! Yay! Unfortunately, they are about 16 inches too short. Yes, I knew that before I bought them, and planned to find coordinating fabric to sew to the bottom. That's harder to do than I thought, but I finally bought the fabric today, so we're making progress. It's projects like this when I wish my mom lived closer. (Ok, I wish that a lot, but this time especially.)
• I have to find an internship asap! I'm supposed to graduate in April(!) but since all I have left to do is my internship and a 2 credit class, I don't really have another option for school next winter. Stress. Anyone have a friend in the public health business looking for an intern?
• Parker and I recently signed up for netflix. It's fun. We found out that we can watch Prison Break instantly, and have been addicted to it ever since. We're on already on the second season after about a week and a half. It's intense. We like it. I don't know how people actually waited a week between episodes, I'd go crazy.
• I had one of the craziest class periods ever this past Tuesday. It started when my teacher rolled a big cart of stuff into the classroom and pulled a couple packages of Depends out, opened them, and started handing them out saying "Ok, everyone go put your depends on." We all stared at her and didn't move in a sort of "Are you being serious right now?" sort of way. She wasn't kidding, and it got worse. If you want details you'll have to ask me personally, because I don't really want to type it all out. It would take a long time, and it's slightly embarrassing/crazy. Now you're all curious, huh. It's probably not as exciting as you're imagining.
• We've gone to the home BYU football games. I really like to go, and so far, we've had pretty good seats and decent weather.
• Parker's been duck hunting with his Grandpa in Corrine, UT at their duck club. Next weekend he's going pheasant hunting. I stay in the lovely trailer with his Grandma and admire the mountains, the marsh, and her cooking. I'm hoping next weekend she can help me with the above mentioned curtains.
• Sonic has been a daily stop for the last week. We have literally been there every single day (except Sunday, of course) and sometimes more than once. It's awful, and wonderful. They have these daily specials that are just hard to resist when you're super hungry and have half an hour between work and a 2 hour class. Fridays and Saturdays are my favorite, they have Cheddar peppers and mozzarella sticks for 75 cents. Delish. If you're in the Provo area, I highly recommend you check it out.

That's pretty much everything we do.

One more thing! We're going on a cruise over Thanksgiving to the Caribbean! I'm so excited. Bring on the SUN!
