Dear John

So a little bit ago I borrowed the book Dear John from my sister-in-law, besides the fact that it was slightly boring (I guess a love story just does not cut it for me, I need some action mixed in!!) it was uper uper sad!! So when I was done I was left feeling depressed and decided I would never read the book again (I'm pretty sure I ranted to Woody how I could not believe I read a whole book about John and whats-her-name and they did not even end up together!) and when the movie came out I had no desire to see it. However, every one said that it was better than the book and well "John" is super hott so I watched it last night while Woody watched basketball with a friend..... so how did it measure up to the book?? Definitely different, worse or better?? Well parts of it were worse the only thing "better" about it was that she ended up with John in the end however other things I believer were definitely more sad... anywho it's a good movie but not one I would recommend if you don't feel like perhaps having a few tears escape

Are you fo reals?

I'm confused... I know that there are numbers that you call where you have to talk to a machine, but usually it's that you listen for your number and then the machine directs you to a real person right?? BUT does everyone remember this thing, it's a machine but it's called VOICEMAIL!! Wow what a concept a machine that answers when a real person is not there to pick up!

Here's what I'm confused about: why is it... that when people call and I send them up to lets say membership and then they call me back all mad and frustrated saying that they would like to talk to a person not a machine. Really? Did you not listen to the machine? Cuz you must have missed the part where it said they were unable to answer to please leave a message bla bla bla. Then I have to politely explain to them that real people answer that line they just all must be busy so if they leave a message (no one understands this concept either) then some one will call them back. Well, like I said, people just don't leave messages. So I get the same person call back 3-4 times because they refuse to leave a message and they keep trying to catch the person and of course it is always my fault that the people are not answering.

O the woes of being a receptionist....

hunger games

So I have decided that I have my own hunger games, and the game is that I have to accurately guess the right amount of snacks I need when I leave the house! Unfortunately I do not always guess accurately, I loose the game and I get hungry and then sick..

I am really confused why I get so sick when I am hungry. STOP I AM NOT PREGNANT . this wonderful mystery has happened most of my life, sometimes it gets worse and sometimes better. It's not like a "wow, I'm hungry" it's literally that i get hot and kind of clammy and then I just get kind of dizzy and light headed it's very close to what car sickness feels like. So I am wondering what the heck? It would be really nice to not have to bring snacks EVERYWHERE I go, and to be able to cut down the food intake possibly? I dunno but I'm just saying... Hopefully this does not get worse when I do get pregnant I'm hoping it's like the lactose intolerant thing, Wood said that there is a 30% chance it (lactose intolerance) will go away when I'm pregnant!! YIPEE So maybe my hunger sickness will get better, but sadly I fear it is more likely to get worse.

As I am sure you can guess, I am currently hungry.. feeling the hot and clammy coming on... and the bad news: I already ate my afternoon snacks at work :(

Summer Findings

Although Woody and I have been together for over a year by a lot.. we have never spent a summer together... Woody was in Kansas City last summer selling. And so far we have found some things out.

1. I wore a shirt the other day that is orange and yellow (a summer shirt) and he asked me if I had just bought it cuz he had never seen me wear it :) Just so you know it's mega old like years...

2. I have found out that laying by the pool is NOT in Woody's vocabulary. Thank heavens our pool has a basketball hoop or else he'd never get in!

3. The other day we went swimming with Heather, Jordan and Kakes and afterwards we went out. I had gotten sunburnt so I was needing some cool clothes so I just bought on a pair of swim trunks (don't worry the long ones) and Woody could not get over the fact that I would wear my swim trunks when I was not swimming, he made fun of me the whole night!!!

4. i found out that Woody does not like slurpees... abominable

That's it so far but I'm sure we'll have many more discoveries to come, I'll keep you posted

Summer Goal

So I went to a jazz class last Thursday with my good friend Kim, the class kicked my butt!! Today is SAturday and I am still so stinking sore. BUT my friend Kim looked great! She had some serious nice lookin legs had a good tan going on... so I asked her if she'd been working out comes to find out she's training for a half marathon! I thought "huh, that's cool I wanna do that sometime". Then I got to thinking about it yesterday and I thought why not do it now!! School is ending in two weeks and after that I'll just have work so i'll have lots of free time, who knows when I'll have so much free time again (probably never) So I've decided I'm training for a half marathon!!! The down side is that the one Kim is doing is full and there is not another one in Utah that I could do so technically I'm not going to run in one, but I will train for it and then run one by myself! COOL!!!

The neatest thing is that Kim told me about this website where you can make a running route and it tells you how long it is and how high the elevation is, that way I know how far I am actually running. The site is LiveStrong and I thought it was pretty neat!!

This first week is my "pre-training" where I have to get to the point where I can run for thirty minutes with no problem.. wish me luck on that! Afterwards I train! Call me crazy but I am getting pretty excited. It's always nice to have something to work towards, and I am also looking forward to my nice tan and great legs that hopefully will come to pass :)

So if you see me running and I look like I am hating myself.... just yell some encouraging words, like I have nice legs :)
