July 8, 2012

A service announcement to all the haters out there, Chaplin has begun to bear fruit.


He's got about five little flowers on him right now and one wee little green tomato and since we have at least two more weeks in the semester, I think it's safe to say that I will at least get to eat one tomato off of my tomato plant.

So yeah, only two weeks left in the semester. Kind of scary because it's moving so quickly. I feel like I say that every single semester so maybe time just really is that fast. I haven't begun to feel the end of semester pressure but that will probably change as of this week.

Monday, was Steve's birthday so we had a little get together and played games with him. It was nice and the team I was on won cranium but I'm not sure who actually won when we played catch phrase. It was probably my team again.

Fourth of July happened! Kyle and I had a picnic at Beaver Dick park and then later at night we got some small fireworks to set off. All in all, a good Independence Day, if I do say so myself.

Also this week, Sabrina was back in town so got to hang out with her for a little bit.

Friday night was a Tron-a-thon! That's right, a Tron marathon! We watched classic Tron and then we also watched Tron: Legacy. Isn't it amazing? I am not the only one out there who is obsessed. I am so thankful that Mary also enjoys them. Has it really been over a year since I met Bruce Boxleitner? Well, almost everyone at the Tron-a-thon enjoyed the movies (there were nine of us and only one disliked them). Which is good because since Kyle approved of them, it means I can keep dating him. I'm pretty sure Mary, Katie, and I (maybe Pierce?) were the only ones who had seen both of them before.

This Sunday I had to give a talk in sacrament meeting. I haven't given a talk in church in years. I've never been terribly good at them and they always end up being super short by complete accident. To be honest, I actually forgot that I had agreed to give a talk this week until Saturday afternoon when Kyle reminded me about it. Whoops! He helped me write a lot of it. Actually, he might have written about half of it. It was on patriotism! It was on citizenship and the 12th article of faith! I am no good at any of that! It turned out alright. I was last to speak and I only had about five minutes of time left in the meeting so it all timed out perfectly. My 7-10 minute talk fit perfectly into those 5 minutes and I only said 'ummm' about 234098 times.

Oh yeah, this week I brought back my facebook. Someone asked nicely and I finally bent to the peer pressure. I haven't been on since I brought it back on the fourth, sorry about that.
