Whew

It has been a very frustrating, fun, and stressful few days. The ladies at my work hate me because someone misunderstood something and I got TOTAL blame for it. Can you just picture older ladies holding a grudge...it's not a pretty picture.

Things at home have been stressful too. Living with parents is NOT the ideal living situation, but what do you do when you have to do it? sigh. I just hope I can make it until we get some stuff paid down. its so hard, I feel very lonely a lot, and I really miss having my own place. I loved having my own place.

We doubled with Steven and Becca, too. We carved some pumpkins. It was way fun, and It was nice to get to know steven a little better.

Steven's pumpkin, Sonic of course.

Becca's mosterish ghoul, I suppose it would be.
And mine and Brian's. Mine is the dorky normal one. The cute little
bat is Brians. He doesn't like it, he thinks its childish...

Not much else going on though, well really to report...So talk to you later.

Evil Snow of Doom

Such pretty flowers, and yet there is crappy snow all

over them.

I really hate the snow. It is the time of year that people drive like idiots and drive too fast for the conditions. I am not looking forward to this winter season. OY.

I would be happy if it just snowed on everything but the road. That sounds great to me. :D

Sorry for all the pics of late. I think i finally caught up on them for the most part, til later. Kim is wanting to go up to PG Cemetary, friend of hers is buried there or something like that. I love that cemetary. Very interesting things there. Anyway, these are pictures from the Zoo when Brian and I went for our anniversary.

Not many of the animals wanted to be seen, I guess. It was kinda cold outside...

I have never seen this picture before, and I really liked it, so I took a picture

of it.

Lame computer of doom. This didn't change when I set it to. Ok, anyway, this

is by the Asian Highlands, where they have the Tigers now.

I like it, and want one for my garden someday.

The baby giraffe was cute, and already almost 8 feet tall!

The baby elephant was cute as well, but people

were crowding the exhibit like mad, so I

couldn't get any good pictures.

I love this walkway. It's no longer in use though. The stairs are

all broken.

This is fairly new, too. I wanted to get some pics from

the front, but again, little kids were crowding it.

It was field trip day.

Brian insisted on these pictures. I was surprised

to see that they still had them there. They were

there when I was a kid.

And of course, Brian being his silly self. He is such a

crazy kid sometimes. Oh-well. He is very entertaining.

Anyway, I'll likely post more pictures tonight. If I remember correctly, the PG Cemetary has a bathtub at the entrance of a family plot. I have always liked that, and if it's there, I'll take some pictures of it. It's just such a random thing to be in a cemetary, you know?

Valley View Cemetary

I was at the cemetary with Kim today, and these caught my eye.

Of all the things in a cemetary, I would never have expected

to see something like this there.

Little angels to watch over this family's angel, I suppose.

This intrigues me. It's a gothic style/era angel.

It is kinda creepy when you look at it up close.

It seems very sad and perhaps a bit angry...

See what I mean?

This one is my favorite of the angel pictures though.

Don't know why, it just is.

Autumn is definately my favorite season. I suppose that is

why Halloween is my favorite holiday. But mostly

it's because I really like the colors of the

changing leaves and such.

The cemetary has some really amazing trees.

Most were just yellow in color though.

Slightly disappointing.

I like this one a lot. It reminds me of a poem I once

wrote for english...

I like landscape better than people. It doesn't

fidget or move on you a lot.

I'm waiting to hear back from U of U as to whether or not I've been accepted. Hopefully thay will send me a letter within the next week or so. Then, I can meet with my advisor and sign up for classes for spring. Only two years left...only two...I can make it that long, I think.

I's is bored

I am totally bored stiff. Although, I did get my errands done and got Brian's school bill, and applied to the University of Utah. Yay! Kim paid the fee ($45) and sent all my transcripts over and stuff. It was nice of her to do so, and I hope I get accepted. Then, it'll just be two more years and I'll be DONE with college, I think.

We're starting out anniversary off tomorrow by going to the zoo. I'm pretty happy about that. I haven't been for a long time. I think it will be great fun. Also, I really want to see the new baby elephant...so cute.

I think Saturday, we'll just do dinner and a movie as money is tight, but it will be nice to get out anyway. Getting out is going to be great. I have to go back to work on Monday, and I'm kind of dreading it. My job gets worse and worse...but after having an entire week off, I really really don't feel much like going back. One day, I'd really like to just walk in and quit. They pay me so well, though...you know?

I must look for a new job or hope and pray that I can watch my brothers kids for him for a bit more than I make now, and maybe stay Saturdays at my work for a bit, maybe just to keep my health insurance. It's doable, but it will be miserable. And, I will finally get Sundays off to just chill and hang. That will be so nice, you know? I am so tired of having to work on Sundays, and crap like that. Sundays at my work are so slow and miserable, it's almost ridiculous to even have us work. At one point, they were going to do away with sundays and then they found out that there were more sales on Sunday. I think it was just a fluke for the few weeks that looked at, and even then it was a holiday weekend then, too. LAME!!!!!!

Anyway, I have to go to bed now, so talk to you all later!

Hey. I was on facebook earlier, and Brian's old missionary companion started talking to me. He is a funny guy. He wants to hang out with us one of these days. I think it would be awesome, Brian has told me so much about him. I think it was his favorite companion. Brian says he makes killer carne asada.

I can't type long, Becca is coming over soon to craft with me. I'm REALLY excited for this as we haven't had much time to hang recently. I understand though, lol. Wink wink, nudge nudge. I'm happy for her though and I'm glad she is happy. I think this is something she's needed for awhile and I'm glad she's got it. I hope everything works out in the direction of eternity...lol. I'm sorry Bec, it's just fun to tease.

I am looking forward to getting my wedding pictures finally done though. I haven't had much of a chance to work on them, and I wanted it done before my anniversary, and seems how that is Saturday, i don't think I could be that lucky. Oy. I'll just get as much done as I can. I need to make tons of pictures from our first year together. You know?

I am so dying of boredom. The boys are playing World of Warcraft, and tonight I didn't want to play. I'm tired and I want to go to bed, but they will just keep me awake. They can be so loud at times.

I was reading old posts and I can't believe what a goof I've been, and what a goof I still am. Oh-well. At least I will admit it. I also have to say that I am glad that things didn't turn out the way that I wanted things to a few years back. My life would be totally different now...and i don't know that I wouldn't like it per se, but I sure am happy where I am right now. I sure thank heavens that I didn't end up with who I thought I wanted...lol. That would have been crazy, insane, miserable, and numbing.

Sometimes, I look back on my life and I wonder why I did certain things and why I didn't do others. man, life was crazy in college. Always doing stuff to try to impress others, make it in the college world, and pretend....a lot! Sure am glad I don't have to worry about that anymore...
Sorry, just musing...

Save me, please!

My mother is already listening to Christmas music and is driving me crazy. It's a techno mixed with rock cd, and it sounds absolutely HORRIBLE!!! I thought some of mine were bad, this one takes the cake...definately...



In other news, nothing much has hapened here. Just watched conference today and played on facebook for an hour or so. My life is boring on Sundays. My homework is caught up and I am trying to get my stuff put back together and cleaned. Oy. I'm just not sure how I want to do it all yet, which reminds me, I need to tell Bec that she can have that dresser to fix up...
