long time gone

So...  I really dont know what has gotten into me these last two weeks that I have worked the late shift and have allocated my time so poorly as to not even write a sentence about my life.  Probably because I have had some seriously huge tests and lots of other things besides blogging on my mind...

1 - Biology.  Who even cares?  Seriously.  Sometimes it feels like the only reason he teaches us some 'important concepts' is so that he can weave his little web 0f lies thick enough to where he can spring grade-level-dropping amounts of random questions in the tests.  Frustrating.  

2 - Pumpkin shakes at Charlie's.  Only $1.99 right now and easily the best thing I have eaten in months.

3 - Pictures.  Check out these way sweet pictures I have taken over the last little while.  Since it's fall and there are lots of leaves around, you might be able to find a running theme.


From Goodness

The majority of these pictures come from Adam's park right by Grandma Stone's house.  It still seems strange to me to not go back to her house after playing in the park.  I can remember walking down the street with Val and getting lost on our way back.  And, I remember when the entire Stone family met up in the park before we went up to Grandma's for a birthday party.  Great times with great people.

4 - My giant pumpkin rotted.  When I was home a few weekends ago mom and I made a trip to Sam's club where she bought me a giant pumpkin.  Said pumpkin lived happily for a small while in my living room, but then started to get a little smaller, and a dark green color appeared around the stem.  The green color has since moved to the majority of the pumpkins surface, and you better believe that it smells horrible and is sitting right outside our door.  Pictures to follow.

5 - It's 1:39 am and there are still six people in the lab with me.  A new record.

6 - Mom bought me a sick cowboy shirt in Pulman.  Can't wait to see it.

7 - I had an amazing birthday weekend in Idaho Falls.  I really dont think it could have gotten any better.  I went home on Thursday (Friday was off because of Fall Break) and we ended up rocking out that night with some Guitar Hero and we discovered that Audrey (Maria's daughter) knows the words to the "Rock and Roll All Night" by KISS.  Interesting.  Friday I made some pita bread with Audrey and took it to Brandon at school and swung some by Val-Dawg in her sick office.  Her office wouldn't be nearly as cool if it weren't for my DI skills.  I headed to Pocatello for a Secondhand Serenade concert, and got back in time to wake up to go golfing with Blaze.  (It turns out that golf is actually pretty fun, and wearing sick golf hats only makes it more fun.)  (Blaze is actually a pro, and shot at least 14 holes in one)  We came back for some lunch and then Blaze and I hit the mall.  Dinner was my favorite pizza, and the best cake in the world.  On Sunday morning, we all had crepes, went to church, and then had some roast and potatoes for dinner.  Really, I cant think of a better weekend.  Ever.  

I think that's about three weeks worth of goodness.  Everything's good here - hope everything's good everywhere else.

Hey Bud -

My giant pumpkin rotted, too. Dang! So glad things are going well for you - and glad you had fun on your birthday weekend. I had fun, too! Can't wait to see you in the yellow cowboy shirt!

Love,
Your Mom
