another one, I'm not kidding

Ok- this is for real, really. Like two hours after I wrote the last entry Joe was watching yet another show on the History channel, this one was on the Bermuda Triangle. There was a man on the show who hypothesized that the Bermuda Triangle was caused by a bubble- apparently he specializes in bubbles, and yes, he was referred to as a bubbleologist. I wonder how many bubbleologists there are out there? Well, I think for the next few months if I ever need to laugh I am set.

what-ologist?

Hey Siblings,

So, Joe and I have been watching a series of shows about UFOs on the history channel. Joe had been watching it before I started and while watching I heard one of the narrators say ufologist (you- fologist). What is that....yes, ladies and gentlemen, someone who studies UFOs. It's a week later, and I am still laughing. Happy Monday.

holy amazing-ness

Constitutional Question

So we are learning about congressional powers in Con law. This brings me to a question: Are you in favor of a stronger state government or stronger federal government? I think for most of my life I pretty much took separation of powers for granted and never thought much about state sovereignty, but now that I am taking this class it has become something I do think about. (not that I can really do anything about it if I am dissatisfied with the current system). Anyhow, what do you think? (sorry this is such a civics lessony post, I will be more entertaining in later posts I promise)

Random

So I get this e-mail about a week ago from match.com saying thank you for setting up my account. I thought that it was spam so I just deleted it. The following day I get another e-mail from them showing me people matching the profile that I supposedly set up on match.com. So I guess someone created an account using my e-mail address and I have been getting match.com e-mails for a week now. I e-mailed them and told them what happened. They e-mailed me back and told me to sign on to my account and deactivate it. Oh thanks, that could be hard since I didn't actually create the account and don't have the dang password. Then today I got the bright idea to tell them that I forgot my password. They e-mailed it to me and I closed down the account. Then I changed my e-mail password just in case. This whole thing is kind of creepy weird and makes me nervous that someone has hacked into my e-mail account. I don't want to have to deal with some identity thief.

Also we have been having freezing rain here which is not my favorite thing in the world.

a big step in the life of catherine

Last night i went skiing at kelly canyon with daniel cass and megan it was so much fun!!!!!! Daniel teaches lessons up there so he got us all in free and then gave me and megan a lesson. It was awesome but kind of scary too. here are some pictures i love you all and hope everything is going well.

It's cold...where's my money?

I'm pretty bored, so I am going to share my thoughts at the moment for something to do...

So, the other day I was thinking to myself...hmm I don't think I have gotten my paycheck this week. So I call our payroll office and they informed me that they had not gotten my hours for this whole month hence the lack of funds. I guess it's kind of good because now I'll get a bigger one next week.

It's cold- I haven't been warm for about 3 days. All I want to do is sit in my bathtub in scalding water.

I think Ezra is regressing. He has been a stinker, fussy pants all day. I feel like I did when he was one month old except that he has much greater lung capacity now!

That's all.

too much time on my hands

Close Call...again

So, we woke up to about a foot of snow this morning and it was still coming. We had bought tickets for the auto show online, so we decided to go despite of the weather. We got there fine, but the parking lot at the expo center was a little more dangerous. We were trying to find a parking spot when a snow plow started backing up- fast- well we got out of the way and ran into a snow drift. At least it was snow and not another snow plow- sheesh. Hope you all had a good weekend!

First Week of School

this week has been just grand, i have really enjoyed all of my classes...even my biology class which is surprising! last night me and my friends got together and made and decorated sugar cookies it was a lot of fun... here are some pictures love you all and i hope you are well!

It's Over!!!

I am finally done taking tests and now I have almost three whole weeks to just relax. I am so excited! It will be nice to come home and see everyone. I can't believe how stressed out I have been lately so it is nice to be able to take a breath and calm myself down. Thanks to everyone for your encouraging words and prayers. See you on Thursday!!

Remember the good old days?

Remember the good old days when siblings posted on the blog so often? When witty back and forth was a daily occurence? I do. Those were the good old days. Now I can't think of anything witty to say. Finals have eaten my brain. Hopefully after Monday I will regain my brain. I am so excited to see everybody and go see the lights and eat pancakes and everything else Christmasy that I have been missing. I have not really had much time to think about anything other than civil procedure, contracts and torts. I only have one more final left to take and then I will be free for TWO WHOLE WEEKS!!!!!
I am super excited. So is Karen. We will have to make the most of the time while we are there.

Death to Finals: BYU-I style

basically i want to die

i can't wait to come home and see all you guys and have a christmas tree and drink egg nog and not do any school work or talk to teachers or worry about roommates stealing my food or cleaning or anything like that

Basically saturday can't come soon enough

Stinkin' Snow Plows

So this weekend was the first step in the move. We planned on moving some boxes and painting Ezra's room. Well, it snowed quite a bit last night so we knew it would be more fun than we planned. When we go in our car there was this snow plow in the parking lot over by the dumpster going back then forward. It was just sitting there when we pulled out of the parking space so we backed up. Then the stupid plow started backing up. Joe tried to pull back into the space, but the car was stuck in the snow, so he honked for like 5 seconds but the stinkin plow just kept backing up and then hit us. I hit my head, but no one really got hurt. The back of the car is pretty messed up, but at least the rear window didn't break (it came pretty close). We then got to spend about 45 minutes filling out police reports and junk.

Even though all of that junk we still moved about 8 boxes and painted Ezra's room. It's a nice light yellow that will look pretty cute with his digs. Hope you guys had a good weekend. Love you all.

Death to finals

I'm serious I want to kill them all. I'll do it too. You try and stop me.

(they are tests silly, you can't kill them, but they can certainly kill you)

Also in case you missed it before.

ELFED!!

New Glasses

I got new glasses because I lost my old ones. Here is a picture of Karen and I being glasses buddies!

Hi Ho, Hi Ho

Hello all,

So, yesterday was my first day back to work. My two appointments cancelled and Dr. Burr was out of town, so I only stayed for a whopping 4 hours. Joe played with Ezra in the morning and me and Ezra enjoyed the afternoon by listening to our drunken neighbor scream along with Pearl Jam and topping it off with maintenance saving us from a near kitchen flood (again). Ah, what a life. Love to all!

Dear Siblings

do you know anyone who wants to date me? if so kindly send them my way, thanks
love,
catherine

Done

Well I finished my legal research and writing take home test. I have to wait until ten o' clock to turn it in though. I can't wait to get rid of the dang thing. I just want to turn it in and not think about it again. I think I did a pretty good job, but grading here seems a bit on the arbitrary side so I am not sure how well I will do. This only counts as 30% of our total grade for this class so it is not as bad as finals are going to be where the three hour exam counts for 100% of your grade. Fun stuff. Anybody have any fun Thanksgiving plans? Karen and I are going up to Bert and Tiina's house to have dinner and then we are going to watch Rattatoullie (we got it about two weeks ago but have been saving it to watch it over thanksgiving). We are pretty excited. I also wish I could find someone with cable so I could watch the BYU Utah game at their house. I guess I will just have to settle for listening to it on KSL.

Mission: FAILED

he wasn't home so i couldn't give him cookies and i would have just left them but i want to see him.....that was the whole point of the cookies so i guess i will just call tomorrow? i don't know. Why do things have to be hard?
