mindless chatter

I'm doing nightwatch... I have like 9 hours to go. not good. I took a pretty long nap after work today but I still feel so tired. its gonna be a long night.

tomorrow is the provo farmer's market. I'm so excited. I love farmer's markets! hoping to get some good fruits and veg's (i don't like either of those words). I'm trying to eat good right now since I was so rotten at home.

we're going hiking monday. yay for nature. its still nice and cool here- only in the high 70's low 80's.

andrea and zac, I really wish y'all were here. I love your blog and I think I watch that mother's day slideshow every few days.

I have nothing inteesting to say. sorry. I'm just bored enough to type it out for people to have to read. i'll have to post my pics from texas next post.

also, catherine is amazing. she came out to the phoenix airport with in & out for a little picnic during my layover on wednesday. it was great.

blah.

i love seeing LDS commercials in texas... 

before i joined the church, i used to see this one commercial allll the time- i didn't know anything about the church, but i think everytime i was watching tv, this one came on- it was a husband and wife, and they went to see a little lonely old lady in the nursing home. she was all sad, staring out the window, and they gave her a carnation. the man was wearing a blue an white striped shirt. the wife was wearing a peach colored blouse. later in the commercial, the man is laying in the hammock (same striped shirt, mind you) and the wife comes and puts little newborn twins in his arms. it is... so sweet. haha. 

i worked in the mtc some during my sophomore year, in the call center. it was the funnest thing, you got to wear a cool headset and people would call in and their info pops up and you just pretty much get to tell them all about what you believe and at the end you bore your testimony and hoped that they asked for 'representatives' to deliver their video instead of having it mailed. and after commercials aired there would be a little burst of phone calls in an area. it was cool.

ps, does anybody else love the movie, Corina Corina? i sure do. 

ok, i'm out, i'm leaving for san antonio for the evening and then back to provo tomorrow!

I'm going to Chuy's tonight!!!

texas thunderstorms... running across a park in a douwnpour with a 40 pound 3-year old on my back... only to make it to the parking lot right when the sun comes back out and it gets back up to 93... real thunder, and real lightening, not that sissy stuff that utah has.

falling asleep to the smell of RAID... cause i walked into the back room when i got here to find a huge disgusting waterbug right in the middle of the floor. my biggest fear. oh gross, i can't even stand this on my page, but i want everyone to see the trials i have here. these are texas' only downfall.

the high tuesday here is 102. i know, right?

(my dear damon, i miss you. thanks for going to mexico so i could have a good excuse to come home. please don't come back with swine flue. )

did i mention i'm going to Chuy's tonight? i know whoever is reading this is jealous- deluxe chicken enchiladas and creamy jalapeno! oh, i'm so excited!!

up to round rock tonight for the next couple of days. anybody up in the austin area, text me

uhhh...

just got back from terminator. 

i don't even know what just happened.

he's lucky i like him a lot.

(2.5 more days, i am craving chuy's SO bad right now)

texas bound

   only wish she was gonna be there.  (and that's our cousin's truck, mind you)

   they are the best part of me.

      ha. that face is perfect.

      sometimes we embarrass our mother.

      driving this around makes me feel pretty much superior to everybody else on the road.  especially listening to pat green.
     i can't wait to see him.

we played kickball last night. i freaking love kickball. i don't even know why. 

i'm going home in 4 days. i'm SO excited! cause, you know, it's been a whole 2 months. haha. i've never gone home as much as i have this year. if my brother weren't so cute, i'd probably go less. i can't wait to drive a truck again, and be out in open spaces, without the mountains blocking my view and be in the hot hot heat and take jake to sea world and eat at chuy's (jalapeno ranch!) and get dublin dr. pepper and creamed corn from rudy's and hang out with my mom and dad and stepmom and everybody else. 

also, i'm behind in everything, so if you're waiting for pictures, i promise they are coming. i really need to get my computer cd drive fixed)

so for some reason i'm caught up watching people open their mission calls on youtube. 

(cause sandy wilding got hers and posted a video online of her and her brother paul both opening theirs- argentina and peru- pretty sweet) 

i want to go too. 

these are the cutest, and kinda amazing, no?

and this one's just cute.

couldn't wait

just took these a couple of hours ago but some of them were so cute that i couldn't help post them right when i got them uploaded. this little guy has the cutest little face and great big blue eyes! so fun.  blogger always drops some of the color from the files, but at least i know they will print pretty! thank erin and gabe!

he was a little tired at this point, but the picture's funny. haha...

love that little tongue!



so cute!

mad dog cycles is having a sale on this:

the sweet buttery yellow color! the brown and white seat! i have a flowy white skirt (don't ruin my dream by pointing out how it'll get stuck in the spokes or chain).   riding to the provo farmer's market on saturdays for strawberries and mint (cause we can't grow either in our garden (ps we're growing a garden!) cause apparently they both take over everything) for summer mojitos! holy beautiful, i think i may put off the new lens for this instead. think of the good.
