on our way

Joe and I are on our way to Arizona and New Mexico tomorrow. I work all day, but we go straight from work to the airport. Yea. Have the best Christmas ever and of course we are all wishing for a Christmas miracle. Diana and Catherine be teaching Mom how to use her ipod and when I get back I will have to show you my Christmas present. Love you forever.

I so hate research

So i am sitting in 2nd doing "research" and i decided to blog becuase i really like the sound of the keyboard it is very nice. I am supposed to learning about the bonytail chub but oh well. My teacher is right by me so it is very dangerous. I have a C+ in math because i need to redo two assignments. I really really hate math oh my gosh. I am just going to type random crap because the sound of this keyboard when i type fast is aweome beyond all control and i feel way pro becuase sometimes i am not looking and typing at the sam time and i feel like the most cool person in the most cool world. I bet all my peers are staring at me in awe because i am typing so awesomely and not even looking at the screen. "who is this awesome typer and where does he get his skills." Well i would have to say i got my skills from frequent msn chats and all the typing classes i took. Ok bye.

WOOT

ok so i was wandering around the internet as one tends to do late at night and i stumbled upon this cool music site I am pretty excited about it because i haven't really found a good method of finding new bands except through other people so yippee it is really cool and i am happy and i will see you all (well most of you) tomorrow YEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Haiku

I was just reading a blog and the whole format of it is everything that is posted has to be in haiku form. It made me think of the haiku that one of Diana's friends wrote that I really like.

Moo Moo Moo Moo Moo
Moo Moo Moo Moo Moo Moo Bang!

Math Class

Whenever Jacob doesn't show up to Math i am forced to be partners with a young man named Nathan. Nathan is very nice and extremely good at Math for the Real World, as we do problems Nathan will frequently ask me if A. He set the problem up right or B. the answer he got is correct. I am often tempted to say to Nathan "do you think that I actually Know!?"

Read this or perish

Today was a lame day oh yes oh yes in student gov we kind of got chewed out because we werent being good enough leaders and our fundraiser is kind of doing pretty bad. I don't know why the SBO'S got mad at us though seeing as they planned the dang thing. Hahahaha. I just kind of laughed at it all you can only hear the phrase "good leaders see things and then go do them" so many times before you start laughing. Anyway, I just try and tune out most people in that class because they are about as real as my boob job. Well powder puff is tonight that should be fun. OH!!! and special message anyone who is planning to come to thanksgiving plan on playing football I don't want any lame people who wont play. Bye

Alone

Susie is gone to Arizona for the week and as a result I am alone for the entire week. I think I will probably go crazy. All alone in the house. I always end up watching a lot more tv than I should when susie is gone because I am lonely and at least tv is kind of compay. It beats talking to myself eh? I also end up checking my e-mail about twenty times a day. So if you want to make my day you know what to do. On a happier note, it is almost thanksgiving and I am totally ready to put myself into a turkey induced coma. MMMMMM turkey coma.

Andrew This ones for you

The Happies

Hey sorry I never ever write on this...

So have any of you guys heard of a band called "The Happies"?

This girl in my marketing class came into class today really excited because they were on the cover of Salt Lake City Weekly. They are a local (SLC) band and I guess she knows a couple of the people in it. A couple other people in the class said they really liked them too so I decided too check them out.

I kinda like what I've listened to of their music so far. Its really, really mellow - kind of reminds me of the old nineties band, "The Eels". I guess they just came out with a new CD and you can download their entire first CD from their website (theHappies.net) for free.

So if you feel like hearing some new music, I'd say these guys are worth taking a look at. Hope you're all having a killer time.

-Joe

Meh

So i went with my friend nick to a poetry reading tonight it was grand i was very impressed, soem english professors read some of their stuff one guy first read some addmitdely bad poems they were hilarious thats about it this is the guy i went with :




I hope everyone is doing well i love you all

Thanks all

Thank you all for coming out and supporting me, the girl I will be going on the date with is name Kaitlyn curtis but a bunch of her friends bought me for her as a birthday gift. It is kind of an absurd idea that anyone would pay that much money for anything let alone me. I did hear about Marcus and his odd experience, I hope he gave that teacher a lot of crap and capped her in the head. I am sorry you guys had to semi experience of high school again i heard you were all disapointed. I don't know what I am going to do with life now, I feel I have reached my peak I kind of want to retire or something like that. Or chizzle my eyes out with a salted fork rather than attend another useless day of school filled with fake people. Amen

Yea Andrew!

Wow Andrew 2000 dollars huh? Not quite the used band-aid. No offense inteded but who the crap pays 2000 for a date, a yearbook page or anything else in a high school auditourium (except our beloved Andrew of course). So, who was this girl who you are going out with anyway? What are you guys going to do? Is she a nice person. Did Diana tell you that Marcus got yelled at by a teacher for roaming the halls? Well- have a good one all.

Yo Yo

I saw your feeble attmept to revive the blog mwhahaha. Well I will do my part. I saw those pictures cat i am scared to say the least. Fundraiser starts this week anyone excited? I'm not, donate a date is on tuesday at 10:45 but come early just in case. That would be cool if anyone from my family would come give a shout out to me. Well wish me luck and hopefully people will be willing to spend money on me. I keep having this horrible daydream that i will only go for a used band aid. On another note i want to be Batman.

james

so i decided to just provide you with some humorous photos and i have also decided that teh reason that everyone else won't participate because they actually have lives strictly speaking for myselves after all you do have a girlfriend rarrrrr anyhow

this is jacob looking like a pedophile


hmm what else alli looking like a high grandma




alright ia m out more to come

night of fun

yeah so i went to see some bands last night with my good friend matt it was fun this girl played and she was amazing and yeah it was fun it is 26 degrees up here!! yeah i think my phone is permanantly damaged yeah it is sad anyhow here is a picture for you fools this is me and alli on halloween

Revive the Blog!!

This is my effort to revive the blog. No one posts here anymore. Sad. I am left to correstpond with my siblings by e-mail and phone (except not Catherine because of an unfortunate incident involving a bucket) How is everyone doing? I am super good. I am starting to get pretty busy though. I have to start studying hard core for the LSAT because it is a month away and I am in sore need of practice. I am writing this on Susie's work computer because she hasn't shown up yet. We are supposed to go to dinner togeather tonight, but I am not so hungry. Hmmmm. Other than that, everything is spiffy. I have my seminar class tonight at my professor's house. We were supposed to read this enormous article, and i read it all right, but I am not sure how much I retained because it was more boring than watching paint dry while driving through the Nevada desert. We are almost done with that class, because he is giving us a few weeks to work on our papers.

On another note, I am completely excited for Thanksgiving! Catherine will be home, Turkey will be eaten. It will be awesome!

O.K. Kids I have done my part. It is up to you to revive the blog.

I'm in school

I am in school and I do not want to be here. Math blows.

Help..its an epidemic

So, tonight Joe and I went to Bed, Bath, and Beyond and we were walking through the store and we saw this GROWN WOMAN, like in her thirties holding this little mini dog under her arm like one of those glamour starlets would- puke. No more than 5 minutes later we saw a MAN about the same age not the same couple carrying a little weenie dog under his arm. Sheesh what is horrendous (did i spell that right) phenomenon? Help!

Tasty

I have three words for you people:

Halloween Egg Nog

Yeah Baby

joe wants to know...

so diana did ally have to get a new tire? did it cost a lot and did she have to get a tow? Joe and I were just wondering how everything turned out.

hey

where is everyone and what are you doing? how is allY's car diana? catherine...how was your ride home? andrew--get me a chicken soup recipe will you?

elizabeth

ha

so i was googling people because i was vastly bored and i came across this little nugget i knew you were hiding something andrew http://www.libertarianz.org.nz/?candidate=andrewbates see you all on friday

Oh man

So my new phrase that I adopted from perry is "you've been punk'd" so I searched it on on google and this was what i came up with. http://www.godinc.citymaker.com/i/IMG_1571.JPG

CATHERINE HOMECOMMING 2005!!!

I know the question is not if we get together but when. We could have dinner on Friday or Saturday or do something in the day Saturday or something. Let me know your ideas. I would like to set something up early because I also want to do something with the fair Ms. Vargo that weekend. (be still my swiftly beating heart)

Yeah Buddy

I am having dinner tomorrow with Karen. Life is good.

On the other hand I made a bet with mom that I could go a week without TV and I am now bored out of my mind.

TV is addictive.

On a completely different note, have you guys noticed that there have been some spam messages that have been posted as comments? "I really like your blog, come look at mine" etc. I am thinking that they are spam anyway. I delete them when I come across them.

All I have to say is hooray for books because no tv+no books=james goes crazy.

Question for diana and andrew

do you remember that night andrew wanted to be a hipster and he was on that website that told you how to be a hipster or a preppy or what not do you know what the web address is? love you

exciting weekend of mouse death

when i went to work early saturday morning we saw a gross mouse go into the utiliy closet in the stairwell right by our apartment so Joe got all excited about setting mousetraps and killing the gross little thing. We set it at about 10:00 and three hours later....death to the mouse. Ewww. He wants to set up another one because he thinks he saw two mice ( I think that he just likes setting up traps)

Hey Catherine- if you stir a rue for more that one minute before adding the milk and cream will the soup come out thicker???

Tee Hee Hee

I was watching Conan tonight and he revered to a web sight that is all artwork of him fighting a bear. You should look at it here.

question for all

So today Joe asked me if people in high school go up to the mountains to drink and party in Utah because that is where they go to drink in New Mexico. I, being very uninformed of the party life at Brighton didn't know---please enlighten us.

ok now this is truly humourous

creepy story for the siblings

so tonight me and ali, amanda , monica,tonya, and dakota went to the gardens because at byu idaho the gardens is the place to go to make out so we went to go ruffle some feathers. as we were walking there we happened upon 3 young men who seemed innocent enough and they were like what are you guys doing so we procceded to tell them the plan and they were like wit here we have spotlights you can use so we were like that would be neat. so they went and fetched the spotlights and we headed up to find some people making out . so after about five minutes we stopped nd this one guy was like "i am willing to sacrafice myself for the mission" and we were like what? and his friend was like 'let me clarify, he wants to make out with one of you " and so we ran away but then they followed us and we ran away some more and it was scary the moral of the story is don't walk around in the gardens at night unless you have a boy with you or else people will try to nicmo with you hahahahha love ya

One time

One time diana was like "we are starting up the sibling blog again" and then she didn't even post. Tomorrow is my first assembly and I have to stand in front of the school and our video is being show wish me luck

Hey Guys

Don't move to New Orleans, K?

First day break down

Well I am sure you are all just dying to know how my first day went so here is the break down, first period was U.S. History with Mr. Johnson. I can tell its going to be a challenging class because he is the basketball coach, a 90 percent is an A, and he said if we showed up most of the time we would get an A. Ahh the beauty of public education, the next period was english with Ms. Russell, I think she was one of the creative writing teacher so she is kind of psycho she accidently swore and said she hadnt changed from summer language so i started yelling out boobs because i hadnt changed from summer language either. 3rd period was student gov and that was way sweet we got our pictures today and yes I am wearing the tux its tight. After that I had lunch and I am pretty sure I scared a few sophmores but thats alright. 4th Period was commercial art digital (oh boy!) it was pretty cool as far as i know we are just screwing around with photoshop hahaha. 5th period was math and our teacher is kind of a push over because she is new, it will be interesting to see how fast she has a nervous break down or attempts to kill me. I told her i hated electricity but i don't think she believed me. Anyway, i have lots of friends in my classes so i should be having a good tri. Tell me how school is for all of you? or work in the case of liz. Peace easy from the home.

greetings from idaho!

so here i am in idaho it is already getting cold but i like it my roomates are really cool and i amafraid they will force me obe involved even if i don't want to be my roomates names are tiffany cassidy alison karilyn and amanda. amanda is in my room we get along pretty well she killed a bug for me last night hahaha ok welllet meknoe how you all are doing love you guys!!!

a get together

so i am thinking we need to have a sibling get together before we all get dispersed i leave on the 25 and i believe diana is leaving on the 24 and james gets home what the 22? so tell me what you all think and we will have a grand old time eh?

so the big K word

Hi all,

I know I haven't written in forever but I want to hear the news from James about the mysterious Ms. V and whether you guys have been emailing or whatever the news is. So anyway, I want to know- so tell me pleeeeease! Catherine, I hope you will comment on this nice post on your new cute ibook. Love you all.

Elizabeth

St. George

I got back from my confrence on friday at about 3:30 and i think its safe to say that it was amazing. We did a whole bunch of stupid fun stuff without crossing the line so it was a very good time. I have a lot of stories about not wearing pants its pretty awesome and once i get the slide show i can show some cool pictures but just wanted to let you all know i am home safe and doing well.

whooooooa

So, here's the newest. Yesterday my boss was fired for popping pain pills that are not prescribed to her. She has been asking anyone and everyone around work for extra pain pills that they have and somehow thought she wouldn't be caught even though her license is already on probation for the same thing. Sheesh. Awkwardly enough me and my friend were in the breakroom when our supervisor came in with our boss to clean out her locker and turn in her keyes. Augh. So, now we are left with 2 nurses and no clinical coordinator. Hmmm. Stay away from bartering with that oxycontin kids. Thats the lesson for today.

Fourth of July

I went into Washington D.C. to celebrate the fourth of July. It was pretty fun. We mostly just walked around the mall durring the day, and saw the fireworks at night. We watched them from the Lincoln Memorial which was pretty awesome because we saw the fireworks and then saw the Washington monument and the Capital building in the background. The train ride back was an adventure though, there were tons of people and they all were getting off at the last stop, which is the stop that we got off at too... it was crazy, and very smelly but we got home ok.

well here i am i haven't written/ looked at this for a while so i thought i would inform you of my life etc i work a lot but it is not bad and sometimes fun this next week i will be doing reception work all week which should be interesting i have been hanging out with whit and the gang every night after work but it is wearing me down so i think i am going to have to limit myself there you go i am pretty dang boring have a nice day/ night

hi

hi girls and guys- had a day off yesterday and so did joe...we went to a movie at gateway and browsing stores after. girls bath and body works is having their bi annual sale so if you want to get a lot of little hand sanitizers and lotions for your purses for cheap this is the time. Also if you want to see most of the people on the earth killed The War of the Worlds is the movie to see. James, we are for sure coming to D.C. now. We booked our flight and hotel and all at 1 am couple of nights ago (we always do stuff like that late). We are coming the 21-25 I know not all that long , but we have so much going on right now. Well ta ta all.

sick of life

I've decided that I am very sick of my life right now. We were in New Mexico this weekend with Joe's family and I wanted to do anything but come back to Utah. I am applying for new jobs dreading that I will get a new one, but hoping with everything that I have that I have that I do because I am so sick of everyone that I work with- I know that we are short staffed on nurses right now but maybe my little weenie boss needs one more nurse to quit to start shaping up. Okay, besides my job I think that everything is pretty good. James, me and Joe just got the third edition of Ethan's movie and I think that we are coming to D.C. so when we come we will have to bring it. OK, well, wish me luck at my interview today and at work tomorrow with the stupid patient who's wife thinks I am trying to kill her husband- retard.


Elizabeth the bitter

Another typical day in maryland

Hey everybody. I don't even know if everyone reads this anymore, but instead of writing an e-mail and carbon copying it to everyone, I am doing this. Besides you can't make nifty comments on an e-mail. So, where to begin in describing my exciting life. Hmmm. I am still sick. That makes me really angry because it has been almost an entire week, and I still have a cold. Grrr. I probably don't help the matter by playing tennis and staying up late to watch the NBA finals (both of which I did last night) but oh well. I started a new class on Monday, there are actually people other than Scott Howell in the class so that is nice. Variety is the spice of life. (I actually am growing to like scott so that is good too). One of the people in the class is a Kaohsiung missionary, he was in the same zone as me in jia yi so that is fun. We told some mission stories today. The class is pretty good. I was expecting something on a little higher level though. We just translate written Chinese all day, but everyone has a laptop and we can type the translations so that is nice. Other than that, not much is going on. I will start to work with my mentor on July 22, and he just sent me an e-mail saying he has work for me to do, so I am excited about that. I really wanted to do this to give me a taste of what it would be like to work at the agency so I hope I can get a good feel for that working with my mentor. I trust that everyone has recovered from your trip back east. Liz, are you and Joe still planning on comming back here? That would be super cool if you did. I think that Susie and Ann got here today, so I will probably go to dinner with them tonight. Cat, did you start your new job yet? How do you like eight hours of scanning documents? I bet it is boatloads of fun!! Well, have fun out there in Utah, I will think of you on Sunday when it is ninety degrees and ninety percent humidity. Ugh.

graduation

wow, I realized how bitter about the whole high school experience I am. Anyway, did you have a fun time last night catherine?? Have fun in D.C. guys. Have fun with the guys James-o.

wahoo

Hi Siblings,

Things are great here in the cinderblock abodes of University Village. Joe love's his calling because he gets to help people move in and out and I still like nursery except maybe whiney poo. Other than that we are just boring--we have been redecorating our little apartment- it looks cute if I do say so myself. Work is ok and school is ok and tra la la. Have a good day!

Good TImes

Well since I am the only one writing on this silly thing, I guess I will update you on recent happenings. Yesterday was a pretty super lazy day. I didn't wake up until about nine thirty, and I didn't really shower until like six. After I woke up I read for a little bit, and then my roomates woke up and we watched BBQ University on PBS. It is this cooking show that is solely dedicated to grilling and barbeque. Then around three or so three of us went to target to buy tennis rackets so we could play tennis. I ended up playing tennis for like two and a half hours after that. It was very tiring. Then I went with one of my roomates out to eat and to a movie. We saw Cinderella Man, it was very good. Today I don't really have many plans, I found a church near here that starts at one, so I will probably go to that one. The singles ward looks like it meets all the way down in DC which is a fairly long drive from here, while this other one only takes seven minutes to get to. Andrew I liked your picture, I guess we now know why Susie likes Elray so much, she wants his brains!! How is everything going with everyone else? I could read about it if you would get off your lazy bums and post something once and a while. Not that I'm bitter or anything. I guess I will see you in a week anyway. I am excited.

Long time no write

Hey everyone. How is everybody doing. Sorry I have not been very good at corresponding over the email. I am just home for my second day. Today was a long day. We had a whole day of briefing. I found out that I only get four hundred and some odd dollars for my trip here and my trip back. That made me mad because I remeber the lady specifically telling me that it would be seven hundred. Oh well, what can you do. I met some of the people that I would be working with this summer, they seemed really nice. It turns out that Elder Howell is the only other Chinese speaker in the whole program. I am not so excited about that, but I guess I will just have to make the most of it eh? I am the only one going to the location by the airport tomorrow, everyone else is going to fort meade so I will be driving by myself to work tomorrow. It should be interesting. I take a language proficiency test first thing tomorrow, I am excited to see how I do. Well, I miss you all and I will keep you posted as to how things are going.

P.S. Star Jones is fat.

James will like

Conan delivered another amazing show last night, but the highlight was in the segment where he sent celeberties a quiz that they filled out and the statement was "its hard to get up in the morning when..." and star jones put "when one of the pulleys is broken" hahaha oh man thats rich ok bye

hi there...where are you

Hi James, are you there? Are you near a computer? If so write to us and tell us how you are....Hi Catherine tell us about your adventures across the country. Come on guys...I am the one typing and I have nothing exciting to write about. Love you- adventurers and non-adventurers alike.

Yea Jameso!!!

Yea for Jamesie!! Our NSA professional. Wow what a cool title "I work for the NSA" or I guess you have to say yo uwork for the government or else you will have to kill them, huh? Nothing fun going on here. I burst into tears the other day at work because I take things too personally (Wed. a bunch of patients had to be told some things and they weren't very happy with me) I' m a mean one. Well, have a happy weekend.

BABIES

Is anyone home?

BACOS

i hate bacos me and james went on a quest for bacos today it took like 20 minutes to find them and so they are banished

that thing you do

Hmmm. I'm sitting here watching my fav "Law and Order". It's been awhile since I saw a new one. Next door there is some beautiful guitar music strumming (our neighbor has his own group and I couldn't figure out what it was and then these images of a 60's (or was it 70's band)on the road rolling up to number one on the charts. Ahhhh- That thing you do --over and over and over and over. Oh well, practice makes perfect for the band.

Late night horn dog orgy

well we were sitting in the living room and i asked mom for more corn dogs and she said "why so you can have more orgy's at 10:30 at night" and me and james start laughing because orgy is a funny word especially at night. Anyway james told mom to specify what kind of orgy so she said late night corn dog orgy's but catherine thought she said horn dog oh man good times. ORGY. in other news james has finally gone off the deep end and decided to learn calculus. Once he sees this he will flip out and attack me naturally. Also, my hair is really really really short its psycho, people will shun me. Speaking of shunned people, how is diana doing? alright good bye family

As i was browsing the web today i came across some poems that i thought would be useful to explicate before the AP exam here is one tell me your thoughts.


Driving
She drives through an endless tunnel
Full of darkness and lies
Her optimism eludes her
For she can't see the sky

Cars appear to be riding beside her
But they speed up far aheadShe can't keep up with them
And this ride she's beginning to dread
What's wrong with her car?

Is the paint job bad?
Or is it the interior
Making them leave her, making her sad

Maybe it's neither of these
Oh look! There are some trees!

how to solve the problem of p.p.

Crack Spackle Movie

Here is the solution to all of your woes Diana aka plumber pants...enjoy!

Hello from Maryland

Hey everyone. I thought I would post this and let you know what is going on. I am using the computer at the welcome center here while I am waiting for my psyche evaluation. I had an interview this morning with the person that is the head of the summer language program. It was good. She seemed really nice. There was also a Taiwanese person there so I talked to her for a little while. I guess she was there to see if I could really speak Chinese. I think I did well. I am here until four o'clock today and then I have the polygraph tomorrow. Everything has gone very well. Have fun.

weekend stories

So I have two stories for yall and I enjoyed both of them. So last night me and jeffe were trying to find something to do, so i was going through my phonebook and I came across the name Mark. Now I do not know any marks so i thought i would call and find out who it was. So from jeffes home phone i dialed the number. A person answered and i asked for mark, but then i realized it was probably Marcus so i quickly hung up. One minute later the phone rang, we both knew it was "mark" and so I decided to take quick action. I picked up the phone and answered "stevens pizzaria this is steven" then mark replied "yes i just got a call from this number" and then i said "oh aye yi yiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii i am sorry" then i screamed "ANTONIO HAVE YOU BEEN MAKING PRANK CALLS AGAIN?" and then i was laughing to hard so i had to hang up. it was very entertaining. The next story isnt long and isnt funny, well to me it is. Austin Archer asked me if i did drugs and i said thats none of your business and then i started laughing and said i didn't but he did not believe me and now thinks i do drugs. Oh boy Peace

The untimely death of Stinky Pete....

Yes, it is true, Stinky Pete is gone. I will have to let you know when his obituary is out so you can read all about him. In other news...I am tired and ornry. On Monday after work I was all ready for my Tuesday off and a pedicure at the spa (thanks to Joe) and someone called and asked me to work and I actually cried...yep cried. I think I was a little tired. So, now I get Thurs through Sun off to not hear any patients complain about their unfair treatment or try not to punch anyone I am taking care of because of their endless annoyances. Okay....bye.

pope..

There is no embarrassment in serving ones country.

Finally

Yes that's right I am done with another year. I took my Chinese linguistics final this morning. I owned it. It was begging me for mercy by the time I was through with it.

curious

So I would like to know who this uryy4me person is. Any ideas? Is it someone we know or is it just some random guy/girl who found our page and got sucked into our vortex of weirdness. By the way is there a feminine form of fella?

A question

HEY liz is it ok if Ziv comes with me tomorrrow? and i won't be able to stay for dinner becasue i am going to my 6th grade reunion at 5 but do you still want me to bring you a recipe?well i suppose i will call you tonight

Careful

Word around the street is that, that Rick guy is reading our blog. So make sure you don't mention anything about the family gold or the king. Also keep the drug reffrences to a minimum. Anyway on that note I have figured out whats wrong with our family, here are just a few things 1. Diana hates Asians 2. Catherine hates black people 3. Dads a little teachers pet and tells mom everything 3. Mom is secretly in love with spider man, ken jennings, and geoff sadler. 5. James hates blind people and i am pretty sure is a pirate on the side 6. I pick out imperfections and have a house and kids in Boise Idaho 7. Liz is a dream crusher 8. I am pretty sure Joe is a spy for Turkmenistan 9. And suzie has this sudden urge for royalty ;)

I love my family

Good Times

so i was sitting there in my third period class where i am a teachers aid and the kids were allowed to listen to music and this guy was like" hey what are you listening too?" to this girl and she was like "bone thugs in harmony" and immediatley i was whisked away to a better time.................... paper paper paper paper say my name

Our fair capital

So for all that don't know I found out today that I will be going to washington DC at the end of April for a series of tests to see if I am tough enough to work for the NSA. I am kind of nervous. As if I didn't have enough to worry about with finals, now I have to worry about passing a stupid polygraph test! AARRGGGHHH!! Oh well, it will all work out. Now for the cool stuff. Did you know that Rick Pehrson has a blog? Well he does, and now you can view it.

Ack

Susie has gone to Atlanta today until Sunday. I am alone in the house for five days. I think that I will go crazy. I also have to write three papers and do a presentation all next week. That will expedite the craziness. Fun Fun.

I'm annoyed...

Sheesh, I don't know what's wrong but I am really annoyed today and I am not even around people. I keep hearing my neighbors clank and scream and blaaaaa and I am just getting annoyed. I hope I am just tired and am not a mean person forever. BE QUIET PEOPLE!

i am sorry but no one will be writing on me when i am in college teheeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Heck Yes

I can not wait to go and buy this movie. Check it out.

meh

BLEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Attention Bloggers...especially Di

Hi there I am mainly writing this because I can't get ahold of silly Diana. WHERE ARE YOU DIANA?? I need to get my insulin sometime so just call me or write back of a time I can call you La LA. I shouldn't be up now seeing as I have to get up at 5 tomorrow so I should be going now.

Announcement

Today on Oprah, Venus and Serena Williams advised me to stay away from dream killers and that is why i can't talk to you anymore Elizabeth

ACk

so i have a study group coming over which should be fun i have a very interesting group yesterday after we finished studying me and owen and Ziv went to Perter's house and were going to hit potatoes with baseball bats but instead we ended up hookibg up a didgery doo to an amp now that my friend is awesome

Bored and rested

Yesterday and today have been my days off. I have slept in until 1200 (wahoo) and finally gotten our apartment cleaned to my liking- kind of. But now I am worrying over whether or not my perfume is hooker-ish. Ah, what can a girl do?

deedle

a fun time was had by all when i went and visited joe and liz this weekend even though i fell asleep too early i still had a ton of fun next weekend:JAMES

The new king

Last night El Ray came to me in a dream and told me that I was the new king. He said he wanted to live a simple life with my aunt, living on a welfare farm they would raise super bugs to attack the many Ann's of the world. He then gave me the keys to his castle and the support of his armies. I told El Ray that I could not possibly take on such a responsibility, he simply ignored me and vanished.

Sad but True

The girl that sat next to me in Sunday School today was wearing the same perfume that the prostitutes that lived below the chapel in Peng Hu used to wear. Every time I smelled it I would think about riding in the elevator with the women of the night as we went to go tracting and they went to conduct their business. Ahhh the memories.

Elray the king

As I am writing this Susie is still out with Elray. It is true, she did look up insect jokes and golf jokes on the internet presumably to tell them to Elray so they both could have a good laugh. They have been gone now for four hours. It is kind of weird that Susie is dating someone, and judging by the way things are going so far, it is getting pretty serious. Elray brough her flowers yesterday, they went to dinner last night and met his kids. They are going to church together next week. He is comming up in April for her birthday. Sounds to me like he is gearing up to storm the proverbial matrimonial tower. Make an assault on Susie's singledom if you will.

Insect Jokes

So I hope that everyone has heard that Susie had a "fine" time (said with a smile on her face) with Elray on Friday night and immediately afterward was looking up insect jokes on the internet. Sheesh. I guess if that is what entertains them, eh? Me and Joe are doing taxes today and that will be way more fun than any insect joke I could ever hear. Happy late Leprechaun Day! (did I spell that right?)

HEY BOOGERS

hey children how are we doing? I am doing fine today we started a new tri and it is looking like it it will be the easiest thing in the world so that is good. I am really excited cause i am taking painting and i will paint all of you a picture and it will be nice anywho have wonderful weeks and don't explode

Today

I had to get up at 5:00, this crazy doctor who is a cranky pants speed talker was on call and I had to page him twice and couldn't understand half of what he was saying but was scared to say "what" because he would yell at me, the Japanese lady was upset again because I am too young, but we ended up at Grandma Ellis's for birthday dinner where she made this yummy pumpkin cakey stuff so I am happy. (poor Joe is getting sick I think) LAAAAAAAA

Joe is soooo older than Catherine

I would just like to take this oportunity to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOE!!!!! You are a chicken just like me. Its your year! Also happy three eleven day.

The Notebook

So i saw the notebook last night and me Whitney Kelsie and Elyse just sat and cried through the whole thing so the moral of the story is if you want to cry watch the notebook. the tri is ffinally over i am so happy! i am taking painting next tri i will paint you all a picture wwwwwwwwwwwwwwoooooooooo. From now on i will write in Italics cause it is fun guess what mrs christianson HATES me exciting eh. love you people

Wow

Did you know that jamie lee curtis is a hermaphrodite? I think i spelled that word right but now i think i can join catherine in her fear of her. Not to say that i do not respect the hermaphrodite community but she is so dang annoying and she was born with both reproductive organs how could you not want to throw a running blender at her face? In conclusion, if you are going to be a spokesperson for a wireless company. Remember your roots.

Waiting

So remeber that post a few days ago about the waiting comercial? Turns out it is for a sporting goods store. I am kind of disappointed in that. I don't know why but I thought that it would be somthing more exciting than a stupid sporting goods store that I will never go to. I have to write two papers and a paper proposal this week, not to mention a religion midterm. I am so excited to do so much homework!!!

Things a gay man said while cutting my hair...

1. "So do you usually just like come your hair forward?" ... "Ok well I'll try and do something that will work BOTH WAYS...."

2. "...Actually I've been doing this since 1995" ... "Its been just a SUPER job for me"

3. "No, I just moved here from PORTLAND" ... "...Its an INTERSTING place - its a little mor METROPOLITAIN and there's kind of a different CULTURE up there..."

4. "Yeah there's a Mormon temple in Portland and everything" ... "its not really as temple-y as the one here though, you know - like it has shingles and stuff..."

5. "Yeah, Utah's pretty interesting" .... "Did you hear about the whole NORDSTROM thing?" "I would be so bummed if they moved out of the state"

6. "Have you ever tried COLORING YOUR HAIR?" ... "Yeah I wouldn't either - you have such a great color"

Blogging 101

Blogging 101

So even though I've been making web pages since I was in 8th grade and goofing around on computers most days in my life since then, this blogging phenomenon has never been something I've dabbled in...

It seems like a decent enough thing to do and I suppose that I can even put some nerdy knowledge to use whilst blogging since it even lets me edit the HTML code of my messages...

This would be kind of a waste of time, however as instead of just typing and then using a mouse to say which text I want to be emphasized or say blue, I would actually have to type out the silly little HTML tags to change text colors or styles or whatever and all along I could just let this silly blogger do it all for me...

So even though I have limited experience with blogging, I may actually be "building" something very much like a blog for my work sometime soon so that me and my fellow "technicians" can keep each other "informed" about what's going on with the computers in the College of Pharmacy.

Sorry if you wasted time reading this one...

Confused

So I go on a paragraph tangent on sperm and joe thinks he is not smart enough for us? hahaha if anything i am not smart enough for joe. Tell joe to not be shy. In conclusion joe rules the playground.

Soooo Old

Happy Birthday Catherine!!!!

Boy that was fun on Sunday when we all ate dinner together. Catherine is so old. Its not even funny. Sheesh.

Team not group

Notice before you go into the sibling blog it shows the people who are in it, instead of "group members" it says "team members" this team thing reminds me of a movie i watched in health called The miracle of life. The sperm worked as a team so the insiders of the group would not get burned by the acids. So through these troubling times i hope we all can choose to live like the sperm, keeping each other out of the "acids" of the world. Such as godzilla, king kong, and giant sperm.

Strange Ad

So I was watching Law and Order tonight and at the end of the show the phrase Omnium Finis Imminent flashed across the screen. I looked it up on the internet and aparently it means "the end is near." The same phrase has been seen on posters on the New York subway. It is probably some ad for a new movie, but the ad didn't explain anything so I guess we will see. Speaking of strange ads, I have also seen this other crazy ad lately as well. It just shows these people saying that they want some new shoes, fishing tackle etc. but they are waiting. O.K. good for you. Way to wait. It doesn't say what they want you to buy or contribute too or anything. Maybe they are just trying to share the virtue of wating with the world. Weird.

Here is the deal

so me and james were thinking that maybe on friday night all of the siblings could get together for dinner it would be fun please reply loveyou

PS where is ANDREW?!

elizabeth truck

Today Joe and I went to a non-farewell for a cousin of his going on a mission. Luckily while we were there we got to see one of his really cute about 3 year old cousins who has decided that I am one of his favorite people right now because he has recently gotten a truck named Elizabeth. I think I should give everyone a truck named Elizabeth. That would make my life a lot easier. BYE!

mwha

good job james you are tubular so last night i went to the play at brighton called The Good Doctor with Whit Kelsie David Hannah and Ziv and then i dyed my hair BWHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA love you all

Midterm

I had the second portion of my English midterm today. We put our desks in a circle on the perimiter of the classroom with four in the middle. If you had anything to say then you could go into the middle and make your statement. I ended up spending quite a lot of time in the middle. I had a lot to say, and I was really adament about it. I think I might of come off as argumentative. That is what you get growing up with a lawyer for a dad. Good fun.

Tomorrow I Say

Hey guys its me your younger brother wow funny how that works. Today I bought new shoes so people can't make fun of me for walking funny anymore!!! I was excited, although when i was in the adidas store one of the workers walked passed me and stroked my arm. I'm not going to lie to you, i felt some major energy from that gentle caress of the arm. I think she wanted to let me try on some of her shoes if you get me drift eh? eh? If you recieved 10,000 dollars what would you do with it? Peace easy

I'm not boring

This is so exciting. Wow. Ok maybe not that exciting. Me and joe are just watching koala's eating eukalypt leaves and climb trees with an australian narratar in the background. What could be better than that??? Have a peachy night. Say hi to elray for me James.
