AMM #5

Get past the first minute and then you can see the dance. I thought this was the coolest dance ever and how fun would it be to be able to dance like that!

Snake on the Porch

So, anyone who knows me at all knows how much I like creepy crawley things!! I don't even like ladybugs...they give me the whillies. Last night Jandon and I came home and I was walking down the steps to our front door there was a snake. It was huge. By huge I mean much bigger than a small gardener snake. I start yelling of course and then that makes Jandon a little irritated. I am stuck outside, because I am not walking down the stairs by the snake. Jandon goes inside to go get something to kill it with and he was inside for so long. I call my Mom and she was laughing at me over the phone as I am freaking out. She said Kaye got a snake out of her laundry room once. (that story did not help, because then I thought about snakes being in my laundry room) Finally Jandon killed the snake with a hammer and disposed of it. I was going to put a pitcure of a snake with this post, but I couldn't let myself look at a picure of a snake. YUCK!

"Personal Afternoon"

This past week at work was a pretty busy and semi-stressful week. Just lots of little fires that we had to be putting out all week. People were sick, people were annoying, and some people were even dumb. I think we were all happy that it was Friday. So, we were eating some cookies in the afternoon and I look down and there is a melted chocolate chip on my chair...I happened to also have been sitting on one too. I get up and of course it is right in the middle of my bum! It really did look like I had pooped my pants. At first everyone (there were only 3 of us) said it wasn't that bad, but them I smeared it with my hand!!! I go into the bathroom to try and get it off. Let's just say at the end of the ordeal I looked like I had peed and pooped my pants. Needless to say, I got to go home early and start my weekend! (Oh, don't worry the chocolate came out of my pants)

"AMM #4"

Again, I can't believe Mom let me watch this when I was so young! Remember all those Saturdays when we watched this movie over and over again!

Too Hot

It is true...once an Oregonian always an Oregonian. I really just can't take the heat!!! I get so sticky and so hot and so cranky! I go outside and I just wish for it rain. (kind of like Lazy Jane) I can handle 80, but more than that and I am dying. It really just makes me not want to go outside. I guess it is good that I grew up in a state where it rained 9 months out of the year. Even when it rains here it is still a "dry" rain. The one good thing is the thunderstorms in the summer, but we haven't even had any of those yet! (this is the crankiness setting in if you haven't noticed) I can be happy for one thing...at least I don't live in Arizona.

Happy 4th

Happy 4th of July!!! It is so hot here today I am not sure what we are going to do. We might go see a movie just to be in a cool place. I made these blocks a couple of weeks ago and I thought they were very cute. A girl in my ward is very crafty, so she cut out all the wood and invited a few of us over to make these with her. They had the hot air balloon show this morning. That is always really cool, because there are just tons of them all over the place. Have a fun day and I hope everyone gets to see some fireworks!

"AMM #3"

I couldn't resist...this is one of the funniest scenes between Dwight and Andy.

Stupid Question

Everyone knows the saying "there is no such thing as a stupid question". Here is an example of someone asking a stupid question: On Fridays, before I leave work, I make sure that all the schedules are out and updated, so I don't get calls from people not knowing what is going on. I thought I had been doing pretty good because it was 8pm on a Saturday night and I hadn't gotten any calls from East Lake. I must have jinxed myself...not more than 10 minutes later the phone rings. I answer it grudgingly expecting some sort of a scheduling issue. The girl says "Hi Angela, it's *Brittany...I was wondering if I could work on a different hall on Monday?" Now, does that question sound like any sort of emergency that you would want to call your boss about in the middle of a Saturday evening? I didn't think so. I thought that was a stupid question, and if you really wanted something you wouldn't bug people over the weekend. I simply said "no" She then went on to ask me how my weekend was going and if I liked having the weekends off. I replied "well, techinally I am having to work right now because you called me." I know I was probably a little impatient, but I was annoyed. I just couldn't get over the fact that she called me just to ask me that. Am I the only one that thinks that's weird? I hope not.
*Name has been changed :)

IKEA

Jandon and I had a fun day today. I was lucky enough to only have to work a half day, so my weekend start around 12. Jandon and I decided to go to IKEA. They opened one in Draper and neither one of us have ever been there, so we decided to jump on the bandwagon. As most of you know Jandon is an English major and he doesn't like to sell back any of his books, so between the two of us we have gotten quite a collection of books. We had been wanting a new book shelf for awhile, since half of our books were getting stacked next to our old shelf. We found a really nice (and inexpensive) bookshelf at IKEA. I am surprised we found anything in that store. It was such a maze! They set it up just right because they only let you go one way which makes you look at everything.

Summer Vacation

Last summer we were way too spoiled because I felt like we did a lot of vactioning. This spring and summer Jandon has been in school and my new job is more demanding, so we have had to stay home more than I have liked. We are going to be joining my family the first week of August in Pronghorn!!! We are so excited. Immediately after that I will have Camp, so I will be in Oregon for two weeks! Jandon will go out for the first part and then come home to finish out his term and finals. We are so excited to see everybody. Sorry Andy and Emily! You guys can still stay at our house though when you come to Provo.
