She's a brick and I'm drownin slowly

In about a week I will be 24, holy hell 24! I feel like an old maid, I feel like a crazy Mormon, I'm 24 and I'm not a mommy of like 3 and who really knows when I will be a mommer but yeah that's a WHOLE different topic I'm not quite ready to delve into, this blog post (pretty much like every other one I write) is about.. nothing. SERPRIIIIZE.

So Darin got this awesome job that he absolutely LOVES and will hopefully propel his career as a chef onward BUT on the down side having one car IS NOT WORKING (whose idea was it to sell Darin's car when we moved out here anyway?)
so there are options ya know, like A. get a new car :( or B. get a bus pass (even BIGGER :( because guess who would be using that bus pass, that's right, yours truly and the types of people that ride the bus around these parts are... questionable) and then there is C. (I thought of this one today) A VESPA! :) i like this idea ALOT.
I could totally see myself scooting (or should I say scootering) around Salt Lake in one of these bad boys.


I think this weekend we shall go look at some, yeyaa.



Then there is this little thought I had today, I used to be a total concert junkie I knew all the concerts coming to town and I went, and now.. now I never know when a band I like is coming not until it is too late. Like today I heard on the news the Moody Blues will be in SLC this weekend. WTF i totally wanna go. The MOODY BLUES!
annnnd, I'm quite ashamed to admit Darin and I have NEVER gone to a concert together.

And then there is this.. so you know how people, women in particular, plan for things IE: how they want their house to look when they get one, or how many kids they want or their kids names for that matter, well is it weird that I plan for future dogs I want? So don't get me wrong I LOVE my dogs they are my children of sorts, but I already know what kind of dogs we are gunna get when (heaven forbid) these 2 pass. for instance, Darin wants a Boston terrier and I want a french bulldogger and he will have a name like Gizmo or papa smurf, yeaaaa, something like that! I know weird right? What is wrong with me?

Oh Oh and lastly my friends, has anyone seen the previews for "The new girl" a new television series with Zooey Deschanel! It looks stinkin cute.
Look it up.


well Dears, have a faaabulous memorial day weekend!
I'm off to clean the house.
yeah it's 11 pm.

glassies

I think I love Darin's glasses more than he does, I like to sneak them on when he isn't wearing them to see how I would look wearing glasses (unfortunately I cannot see myself because I am blind with glasses on) sooo, I have to take a picture to see how they look on. mehhh, I dunno if glasses suit me, maybe because I've never worn any but I sure do wish my eyes allowed me to wear glasses from time to time. I want some BIG, bulky, thick rimmed, tortoise shell nerd glasses right now!

but.. they sure do look cute on Darin, I wish he would wear them everyday. He's a sexy nerd.

ABC

It's really late and I should be sleeping, but instead what do I do? I write A blog post of course (since it has been a little minute since the last post). this post will be brief I can assure you since I really do need to go to sleep.

A. this is a little shout out to my hubby (who doesn't even read my blog) for getting the job at Mona Vie, you will be splendid and moving your way up to a head chef in no time.
B. To celebrate the hubs new job we went to the movies today and saw INSIDIOUS, mmm hmm that's right... pretty creepy. kinda makes me NOT wanna go to sleep right now.
C. I keep finding myself looking in the mirror and admiring my hair's length ( I can't imagine what I will do when it is actually long)
and well I don't really have anymore things to write for a letter D... I told you this post would be short.

good night

This Blog is dedicated to the short haired loves of my life... If I hadn't come this far in my hair growth experience I'd turn back and follow in your footsteps. oh how I miss your trendiness and spunk ... you complete me, short pixie cuts...

list number 2

This is the continuation from the first post a did 'A little music for your soul' , I'm sure no one read it but it don't bother me none, It's mostly actually a post for me to remember songs I really like so I can reference back and buy them on itunes if I don't already own them ( And before someone comes along and tells me that it's free to just download them on limewire or Napster or whatever the latest free music downloading site is now, let me just say... A. I don't want to because it makes my computer all buggy and B. ... A. is a good enough reason. So I will just stick to purchasing them.. the legal way thanks) So with all that sturfff being said, here is my second list of music that I particularly like some old some new and some in between.



The Jayhawks - I'm gonna make you love me

Thao & Mirah - Hallelujah
Lucenda Williamsc-Born to be loved
The Mighty Sequoyas - Lighthouse & Don't wait for me
Broken Social Scene - Sweetest Kill
Modest Mouse - pretty much every song from the album "we were dead before the ship even sank"
Arcade Fire - Ready to start & Wake up
The Shins - Caring is Creepy, Pink Bullets, Phantom Limb, Sea Legs, Turn on Me and Girl Sailor
Simon and Garfunkel - Sparrow
Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes - Home
The Pierces - We are Stars
Wye Oak - Fish

my new found hobby whilst at work.watch pigeons waddle around. feed waddling wigeons. see waddling pigeons mate. very exciting stuff. I wish I had a trendy phone with a hipstomatic camera app. to photo document my day, because as you can see it is pretty thrilling.

but all things aside my mind has been pretty preoccupied at the moment, lots to think about and pray about and FIGURE out.

It can be difficult if you stop and try to think about it all at one time, so typically I try to avoid that or else I'll just end up with a giant migraine and lots of stress, but then again there are tons of people around me going through stuff, BIG stuff and small stuff and just... STUFF, and I know we're all not as alone as we think we are.

Luckily my heavenly father knew exactly what I would need when he created this beautiful world we live on, he knew that when things get really hard and really stressful if I would just STOP and take a minute and look out the window to see all the beautiful creatures that inhabit it I would just stop thinking and stop worrying and smile.

So might I suggest (even if you think it sounds lame) stop and watch the pigeons.

I suppose I will leave you with this little tune that makes my heart happy.
