Why I love California...


Because you don't know if "Happy Birthday Jesus" is for the Christchild or just a guy who works in the store.

Update Time!

Apologies to my loyal readers... It has been awhile since my last update. Lots has been happening! Sisi pants decided to make the drive to come out and visit Matt and I for Thanksgiving. I was so excited to have her here! We got to spend a lot of time together cooking a "feast for three" and shopping on Black Friday (which is a lot less exciting in California... Turns out Mormons have a lot more fire in them when it comes to getting great deals) and we went to the National Sequoia Park. I'm not sure if you have heard of Sequoia trees before, but they just so happen to be the largest trees on Earth. Yeah, the LARGEST TREES ON EARTH. Now I'm no Arborist, but I can tell you they are big ass trees. Sister and I found ourselves overwhelmed in giddyness. Here is a small documentary on our adventure. Have you ever noticed there are always a ton of Asians at places like this? This was no exception. And you can bet your booty I bought an annual pass so I can pop over any chance I get.




The next Monday we drove to Las Vegas for "Alex and Abbey's Trip" to do some recruiting for USU. It was so good to see my Aggies again! I forget how hilarious everyone is. After 4 days of non-stop binging (minus the purging) I felt like I had gained at least 10 pounds, but nevertheless I was happy about it. After a quick lesson in Craps, most of us ended up with a little extra money in our pockets. Naturally, I had spent all of my winnings by noon the next day. Oh well.


My little brother turned 23 this weekend. It was just another reminder that we are getting old! This was confirmed when I bought a new pan yesterday and got pretty excited about it. Anyway, back to the topic... So Curt and some of his friends met me in Vegas to celebrate. Happy Birthday little Bro! While the boys were on their way home, some Ass Hats robbed them while they were in a store and cleaned out the car... I'm not kidding. Completely empty. Even the ice scraper. Now I don't know if it snows a lot where thieves live, but I'm pretty sure they might be able to afford their own ice-scraper and not have to take someone elses. They also took the Panini Press I bought for Sister for Christmas. Sorry sis, someone needed deliciously grilled sandwiches more than you I guess. Hopefully everything gets worked out. I'm banking on Karma to come trough for us.


But now I'm home, and everything is back to normal. Except I'm pretty sure my new neighbor might have a deviated septum because I can hear him snoring over Matt at night. I wonder if I should tell him they do surgeries for that... I mean, I'm really concerned about his health.
