You Are An Exclamation Point

You are a bundle of... well, something. You're often a bundle of joy, passion, or drama. You're loud, brash, and outgoing. If you think it, you say it. Definitely not the quiet type, you really don't keep a lot to yourself. You're lively and inspiring. People love to be around your energy. (But they do secretly worry that you'll spill their secrets without even realizing it.) You excel in: Public speaking You get along best with: the Dash

A New Game

I have been challenged to a new game. It happened several weeks ago, but I've been missing from the blog world for a while due to my health. I went to the doctor finally and it looks like I've had strep throat for quite a while. I had no idea! Anyway, on with the challenge!

4 Things I Did 10 Years Ago (1998)

1- My cousin and I backpacked through Europe for the first time. We left almost exactly at this time (first part of June). Four hours before flying out, the guy I was crazy about broke up with me. I was also still recovering from the worst sunburn I had ever had.

2- I was attending SLCC and my favorite class was Geology.

3- I had long permed hair and thought I looked fabulous!

4- I was working at Matrix Marketing in the credit department.

4 Things I Did 5 Years Ago (2003)

1- 2003 was a fabulous year for me. I had just purchased my own condo and was starting fresh in the area. I met Michelle (who challenged me to this game) and I went to Karate with her a couple times. I dated lots and lots of guys from my ward. Loved it!

2- I had my first roommate and discovered the ups and downs of living with other people not related. I honestly can say that I didn't enjoy this experience. We often fought over the same men.

3- I lost hearing in my left ear and suffered from horrible dizziness. I was finally diagnosed with Meniere's Syndrome early the following year.

4- I had two blind dates right around the same time and both were disasters. Liz set me up with a friend who was used to women flinging themselves over him. Blah! I think I'm the first person to be unimpressed by him. The second blind date Michelle set me up with her cousin. That was a disaster. A few weeks later I started to date Levi. We were with a group of friends on vacation when I realized my true feelings for this man. It took 2 blind date disasters for me to finally see what I had been looking for.

4 Things I Did Yesterday

1- I put flowers on Liz's grave. This is the first time I've been there since the funeral.

2- Made Orange Chicken and Pot Stickers.

3- Made curtains for the VW van.

4- Saved the lives of many earth worms who came to the cement to dry off. I also pulled Anna out of the mud where she had been having the time of her life playing.

4 Shows I Love to Watch

1- LOST

2- Moonlight

3- Farmer Wants a Wife

4- Stargate SG1

4 Things I Love to Do

1- Sleep

2- Craft, sew, scrapbook

Baby & Cat Tag

There is a fun game called "baby & cat tag". It goes like this. The crawling baby spots the cat peeking out from under a Bombay chest. The baby moves into crawling position and takes off towards the hiding cat. As soon as the baby gets close, he runs off under the table. The baby isn't discouraged, but proceeds to change course and heads to the table. Once again, the cat finds yet another hiding place, and the cycle goes on until the cat finally jumps onto a large piece of furniture the baby can't reach. The game is then in "time out" mode. It starts again when the cat walks right past the baby (just out of arms reach) and that signals the "game on" bell.

This game has been played non stop each day and it looks like neither party will be growing tired of it anytime soon.

Games in the Miata

Last Saturday Levi and I spent the morning with the Utah Miata Club tech day event. We've been to many of the Miata club events, but this was certainly one to remember. Everyone was able to put their cars on lifts and help each other work on the cars. I spent most of my time by the food table, eating a delicious breakfast and chatting with the ladies. We played a speed, pick-up game in the Miatas, a 50 yard dash in the cars and took a Miata knowledge quiz. We won prizes for all three events. This picture was taken during the first event, and was posted on the Miata Club front page yesterday. Here is another picture of the game.

This is a super cool club!

BeJeweled

I have never been a big computer game player. I'm not talking about the fancy games, I'm talking about the free games you can download from MSN. I came across Bejeweled several months ago and I've been an adict ever since. I find myself clicking and clicking and clicking, hour after hour. My mind goes blank and my fingers do the work.

I'm currious to know if anyone else has a funny adiction to a mind numbing game like Bejewled.

Side note. I removed the irritants post. Have a nice day.
