Cheerio

I had my first British person say Cheerio! to me yesterday.  In real life.  

I hadn't heard it yet, so I wasn't sure it was real current vocabulary.  But I guess some people say it.


Unfortunately, the British person who said it to me was an older gentleman, who happened to be a doctor, and who also just happened to examine my lady parts.


I won't go into too much detail, because its mostly awkward and a little bit embarrassing.  But just to keep you all at ease, I don't have an STD and the antibiotics are working just fine.  Everything is dandy.  


I may have just crossed too many blogging lines, but you should be glad I didn't post the original version of this post.  A lot more gory details.  You're welcome!

Other basic updates on my life:


-I saw The Artist.  I know some people are giving this rave reviews and saying its super innovative and great and fantastic.  It was enjoyable and I thought there were two or three really brilliant scenes, but I also think parts of it dragged a bit (at one point i checked the time, sure that the movie was almost over, but it had only been on for 30 mins).  It currently has 97% on Rotten Tomatoes though, so don't listen to me.  I don't know what I'm talking about.

-I ate an entire pizza

-I finally purchased real pillows.  The ones I bought when I moved here were little guys.  It feels weird sleeping with head and neck support.

Yeah, that's all.

So, if you are American...what do you say back when someone says "cherrio?" I might have exclaimed, "Lucky Charms." Although, then he may have thought you were from Ireland. (Mindy G.)

I almost just left a totally inappropriate comment. I refrained.

I just like you so much for even mentioning the down there doc. We didn't have to know, you could have lied and said it was a guy on the street. But you are keeping it real and I appreciate that a lot.

Another confession

(this isn't about the same subject matter as before) A lot of the time when I meet people I feel like I know them from somewhere. A good percentage of the time I realize the only way I know them is that they resemble one of the characters on the classic board game Guess Who? Does this happen to anyone else?!?!

Recent Obsession Flair-ups

You know how there are some things that you love so much and you experience these things a ton but then after awhile they just seem to fade out? But then some time passes and you almost rediscover these things with new eyes and obsess over them again almost worse than the first time? This has recently happened to me with a few things. They include: Elton John Tater Tots Seinfeld Showering Grape Juice Thats it. PS: (Did you know?!) Thanks to Dare-bear-stare for helping me learn that my own Denver International Airport is the largest airport in the U.S. at 53 square miles! Props to Denver yet again!

Take Home Chef Wannabe

So once upon a time my friend Jeff and I made up our own little tradition. We called it "Friday Picture" and each Friday we would walk around campus and take a picture with the most awkward/awesome/unique looking individual we could find. It was something I looked forward to every week, and we would constantly surprise ourselves with the kind of people we'd see walking around BYU. A lot of weridos there. One day we decided to meander through the library to see if there was anyone extra special for our Friday Picture. Boyyy, did we find that special person! World, meet Take Home Chef Lookalike. I saw him and I couldn't believe the similarities. The striking features. The blond, pointy hair. We even found some silverware to make the photo more true to life. ( The real Curtis Stone ) Try to tell me they don't look alike. Just try. I think the best part of the story is that Jeff's girlfriend at the time (now wife) had dated Take Home Chef-a-like. And we di...
