Some People Have Issues





First Off: I'm excited that there is another single person that has started a blog. I'm ecstatic about this event because that means when I click on Sam's name I know that I won't be forced to endure the pictures of little children running around in ridiculous costumes (unless its Pacen or Camry in there BYU attire.) To go along with these pictures I also won't have to hear things like, "my kids are so cute," "so and so did the cutest thing the other day," "I'm sorry that I write about my kids all the time but they are so stinking cute." Mothers please don't take offense, I'm saying this all in good humor but I won't deny that I would prefer to hear about the TRUE BLUE. My expectations are high Sam, I hope that you will meet them :) .


By The Way: Thanks for the input on ideas for my blog. Dan & Nellers get an F on the assignment. And not just an F but a RED F in the words of my father. Erica I actually appreciated your idea, I think I will do that once in a while. Jana I'm going to have to think about a good Coach Hemstalk story for you. If anyone has an idea down the road, please let me know.


Some People Have Issues: Some of you may have noticed LaNell's post today about her new shoes. LaNell cracks me up. If she had anything less than 50 pairs of shoes I do believe that she would think that she is poverty stricken. Above is her closet with all of her shoes. Don't ask me how many shoes she has because I'm pretty stupid and lost count at 48. Here is my theory about LaNell getting a new pair of running shoes, one word: DESPERATION! I tried to coax LaNell into getting online to meet men but she refused and so these are the extreme measures she is taking. Going into a shoe store to meet men. Don't you think that is kind of an expensive way to talk to guys LaNell? Well in any case I'm glad she met up with someone that likes to watch her run!!! I just want to remind you LaNell that some children walk around with no shoes at all, maybe you could be more charitable. By the way our nice room mate Katie helped me plot this out, I like that I'm rubbing off on her! :)

An Inquiry

So a week has already gone by and I have nothing to write about. Lets face it, when I'm between my abundant boyfriends I have nothing exciting going on in my life. I know that everyone would get sick of hearing my thoughts on the BYU basketball team and I can only break up with Jimmer so many times. So anyway my point is this; on the weeks that I have nothing to write about I am going to draw from a list constructed by everyone who reads this blog. Pretty much I am asking for ideas. It could be a scene from a movie or TV show acted out (with my own spin on it,)since I have recording technology. It could be subjects that you would like to hear about (as long as it isn't about pink frilly dresses, actually never mind, I would like to write about that.) I can recall some high school era stories if someone would like to black mail another person or re-live our gross and awkward years. So throw in some suggestions especially if I don't know that you read my blog!

Its been too long














Well there aren't really that many excuses for me waiting so long to post but I will tell you two reasons. First is that I work as many hours as 3 Mexicans. The other reason is that I am addicted to FACEBOOK now. I don't know what I love more about it, the lack of pressure in having to write a clever little speech or the sheer joy I feel when I can reject someone after they have tried to add me as a friend. Anyway, I will try to be a little more balanced out.



First Event: Carrie's Wedding



I am happy that Carrie got married but unfortunately I had to work instead of attend her wedding. Angelee flew in town for the wedding which was fun. I just have to say that she and I are the only ones that aren't party poopers! On Friday night Angelee, Than, Erica, Dan, LaNell and I went out to dinner. I am going to complain about not getting any dinner until 9 pm and when I ended up eating the setting felt like I was an extra in My Big Fat Greek Wedding (never the less it was fun!) Not only was there no Dr. Pepper there but I also thought that the workers were going to bring out 2 chickens so that we could watch them fight. So the hour was getting late but I wanted to hang out with Angelee some more and so we decided to meet up at Erica's house. The hilarious part about this was that it only ended up Angelee and I watching American Idol. Erica being the perfect hostess fell asleep so we took a pic (it didn't turn out that well otherwise I would have posted it.) LaNell didn't come because she secretly wanted to beat everyone 's Wii scores but tried to tell us that she was tired. Good times though. I patted Angelee's little belly and gave a pep talk to Princess Chuck about the cruel people in this world that are no doubt going to make fun of her. Thanks for being a good sport Pilar!



Nellers got a Wii



I have mixed emotions about the Wii. I do like a lot of the games on it and I also like watching people do the games because 98% of the time they look like complete idiots. Draw backs of the Wii include: LaNell trying to get me on it and then taping me looking like an idiot!! Second problem is that this Wii time everone wants interrupts my TV watching time which is important. The third problem is that Samarella and Cinderella go head to head like a bunch wild hyenas. They try to beat each others score and so one way or the other I have to listen to someone cry because they are only second best.


True Blue???

Than, if you ever tell me I am not true blue again, I will cut you!


Popular

I very much regret not having the camera available during the car ride to Sandy but hopefully I can paint a vivid enough picture for you so that it will be just as funny. Last night LaNell's aunt invited LaNell, Katie, Dan, Sam and myself over to her house for dinner. We saw no point in taking 2 vehicles and so all 5 of us decided to pack ourselves into LaNell's car. Now, the only reason why I can say this is because my statement applies to me; there are some of us that take up more room than others. So taking everyone body mass index into account I would say that there were 8 people in a 5 passenger vehicle! Since everyone was packed in we decided to sing some songs (great idea since out of the 5 of us only one person could make it into a choir, that is Katie.) Between songs Sam delighted us with quotes from Pride and Prejudice. I have to say that Sam has a variety of voices that he can do proficiently, I was very impressed. I almost peed my pants (that would have been fun.) On the way home, we decided to put in the soundtrack Wicked. I just have to say that the experience was one that I won't forget for a while! I think every one's favorite song was Popular which was sang with much exuberance!

The Queen Cookie Maker

I hope that Annette or Jana don't take offense to this remark but LaNell is the queen cookie maker! I have definitely eaten great cookies before (believe me, I have had my fair share plus some!) but I am convinced that LaNell has something she puts into her batter that makes me coming back for more. She has recently tried a new recipe. I don't know what happened, I'm pretty sure that the cookies were eaten by a pack of ravenous wolves because they were gone in 2 days. Thanks for helping me keep my slender figure LaNell!
