The Brains

Don't worry.  The frustrations from my previous post are good and gone and after some solid refreshing sleep time, I am no longer fearing any kind of school blunder.

I will, however, say that the combination of jet lag, and being sick, and the all-nighter has left me with a much more confused sleep schedule than ever before.  I feel like such a sloth, but a well-rested sloth at that.

Next week I'll write more Italy recaps, but until then I'd thought I throw a shout out to my brother Aaron for graduating from BYU.  He's worked really hard at making it happen and I was really glad I could be out there for his ceremony.  And unlike some of us, he's really smart and graduated with degrees (yes-more than one) that are marketable!  And he already has a job!  Who does that?!

Aaron.  That's who.




Yeah, he's pretty smart.  Well done, Aaron.  

(And can I live in your basement when I'm still making minimum wage in like 24 years? THANKS)

I was in UT for three BYU graduations, which were painful, to say the least. But you know what's even worse? At the grad dinner that night, Ricky told me he saw you at Ingrid show.

Let's just pour some lemon juice in my paper cut, why don't we??

Sometimes, life just stinks. And life without Cindy ALWAYS stinks.

I bet his basement will be nice. Maybe even nicer than ours (although probably not as well decorated). Good choice.

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...
