Sign... Part 2!

Me & Norah with the infamous sign... (Note: This was probably take around 600 am. I don't know about Norah, but I'm not a morning person. It was a GREAT day though & can't wait to do it again in a few short months.)

Spring (HA!) Semester...

The new semester is upon me at the Utah State University. I've got an Economics online class & English 2010. In English, I'm currently writing my autobiography. If you've got any suggestions, I'm takin' 'em. I don't think my life is very interesting, but you might. Wish me luck this semester. I'm taking it more serious than last. I think I've found a recipe for success. Crossing my fingers.

I got my brand new spankin' ipod!!!

I scrimped & saved for months. Plus, my year end bonus helped A LOT. Thanks, Robert. It's a beautiful thing. Thanks to my friend Greg "Mother" Tucker for the discount. I can't wait to fill this up with everything I have & need.

Next on my list...

30th Anniversary Bad Religion Vinyl Box Set

I need this, & it's gonna happen. (Where's my sugar momma? Anyone...) I hope they're around when it does. I need to find a lay-away plan.

After, I went & bought a few records to fill it...

Bad Religion: The Dissent of Man (Congrats on finally making Targets: Promising Artists. It only took 30 years or so.)

Mumford & Sons: Sigh No More

Randy Newman: I love LA---Because I do love LA & ALL my peeps (Yes, I said peeps. Hi Jake, Norah, Georgia, Tommy, & Naomi).

To name a few. I got more, but I'm sure you don't want to hear about my limited edition, blue blah blah blah.

Also, dinner with my friends, Ingrid & Aaron, at Red Iguana II. So delicious. I could drink the salsa. I love these people. I can't wait to see them next month.

Loganites... If you see a three legged Jack Russell Terrier. I know of a family who is desperately looking for him. His names Rocco.

Last, I saw my campus crush yesterday. My heart skipped a beat. Now, I need to grow some &@!!$ & give it a go.

Hope all is well...

See you in the future...

Sign...

Here's the sign I made the kids: Jake, Norah, Georgia, Tommy, & Naomi, for our trip to Uncle Walt's.

See you in the future...

Oh the New Year...

I've never been a fan of New Year's. I don't think I've gone out or did anything special since I've hit 30. This year I went to the basketball game and did laundry. I saw the ball drop in New York at 2200 my time & promptly went to bed. Actually, I went & read a book (Ranger's Apprentice #9, Halt's Peril... I highly recommend them if you are in need of some candy. Well written & fun characters that have grown before my eyes. The author's Australian; so I've had to wait a year between books to see what happens next.)

Anyway, New Year's always makes me think I want to happen in say 2011 that didn't in 2010. So here are a few things that I hope will happen in 2011... Hopefully, writing them here will help...

1- Date more... I say this every year. It still hasn't happened as much as I'd like. I'm just scared to death by it. It's just been easier to be by myself. I really like it, but that's what scares me. I plan I signing up for a online dating site that's not ldssingles.com. Any suggestions...

2- Get my savings rolling again... Before I was laid off I had quite a nest egg. It's now down to almost nil. It served me well, but I'll be happy when I can get where I want it. I'm still not spending one dollar bills or change. That seems to add up quick.

3- Remember school is still a high priority... I lost track of that fact. Fall semester didn't go as well as I'd like, but I passed. School & work is a lethal combo; I'd like to learn to cope with both.

4- Remember to be grateful for the things & people I have in my life. I get caught up in myself a lot. I try not to, but it's my nature.

5- Write more... I'm going to be posting life stories once a month. I need to get these down on "paper" before I forget.

I'm sure I'm forgetting a few.

Thank you for reading all of you...

See you in the future...

I've got to add this... Might be my new fav...

What the...

HELL is this?

I saw this while waiting for Barefoot Contessa to come back on...

I don't know if I have words to describe... I'm rolling my eyes & shaking my head. I will say this is worse than jeggings.
