• Logan: August 21st

  I'm lame. To all my loyal readers (hi mommy) I apologize for my summer hiatus. Days, weeks, and then months went by without blogging and I have no good excuse for it. So I dusted it off, got rid of the cobwebs, and here I am again.

  The blog thing has become hugely popular lately. I think that is partly the reason why I stepped away from it for awhile. Everyone I know has one. I felt like mine was getting drowned out by the hundreds of grammatically inept voices, blathering on and on about their baby's new shoes or their husband's sexiness or the color of their hair. I feel like a writing exam should be distributed in order to qualify to have a blog, don't you? It's like pregnancy. Millions of people should not get pregnant, and yet no one is stopping them. Same as blogging. Millions should stop blogging. Immediately.

  Alright, I have made some decisions about my future. Praise the Lord. It came to me in a dream---a vision, if you will---that the next chapter of my life will take place in a little town called Logan, Utah. Why Logan, Utah? Mostly because it's pretty. Beautiful scenery from every angle, in fact. Oh and I'm planning on going to Utah State University, too. I will go next fall when I have residency and major in Graphic Design while working as a photographer in a studio somewhere.

  That's the plan, anyway. If I don't get hired in a studio, I'll have to resort to a mind-numbingly dull receptionist position or some other office endeavor. The reason I went back to school was so I wouldn't have to be another office bitch for someone to boss around. So let's keep our fingers crossed for a photography position...

  My sister and her husband and their dog just moved to Idaho today. They drove a U-Haul the size of a house and had it full to the brim with stuff. My brother-in-law is planning to attend BYU-Idaho in Rexburg.

  I only need to take two more math classes until I have my associate's degree. Can I get a hallelujah? Thank you, thank you. Getting my two-year degree in... err.. five years-ish? Pshhhh, I took breaks, okay? I did it at my own pace. Don't judge me!

  How was the dance show this season, by the way? Pretty amazing dancers, and my mom grew up with Chelsie Hytower's mother. So we watched the show pretending we were all friends with Chelsie even though I had never heard of her in my life.

  One more thing. I lost my phone and could not find it anywhere. So I finally looked in my car, under the seats, over the river and through the woods... uhh, yeah... and still couldn't find it. Then I heard it beep. It was in my cupholder! What? My blonde hair must have gotten in my eyes or something.

  I move to Logan on August 21st. Two weeks to pack and get ready. More to come...

  Books I've read recently: Life After Life by Raymond Moody (I am not afraid to die anymore), Fahrenheit 451 (very reminiscent of 1984, but not as creepy), and a bunch of psychology books that might make you think I'm crazy, so I won't mention them.
